Beautiful Marathon vacation home in the Sombrero Beach area, this waterfront vacation rental is surrounded by lush tropical gardens and a newly constructed pool. Only 300 meters from beautiful Sombrero Beach. Open concept home with wrap around balconies and views of the water. Hurricane impact doors and windows and new metal roof just completed in 2022. It's a 5 star! Tie your boat or kayak up for easy access to the Atlantic Ocean. Family friendly, just 45 minutes from Key West. What makes this home unique is the wrap around balconies. Everywhere you look, from the front to the back, you can enjoy the lush tropical gardens and water. Orchids blooming in the spring and the everchanging mangroves from the dock! Take a nap on the terrace while listening to the cardinal's chirp at dawn and dusk or sit on the dock and watch the iguanas sunbathe across the canal (and sometimes swim!) Enjoy private swims in the pool and deck area while grilling your favorite meals and dining outdoors. Guest has access to entire home, pool, grill, and wood deck area. There is no access to the owners' storage apartment below or the owners' closets which are locked at all times. We live off the property but are available if needed. We believe in giving our guests all the privacy they deserve. If you need something, just call! In the case of an emergency it is best to call and not text. Quite residential area with minimum road traffic. Ideal for walks to the beach. The home has plenty of shaded parking underneath the house. All necessities can be found a mere 2 miles drive down the road. Food, pharmacy, liquor, restaurants, gas, etc. Guest access is keyless and access code will be provided prior to arrival.
