Vacation rentals with a kayak in Marathon

Location, location, location! Great views, nice pool area, dock space if needed. Walkable to several resorts and turtle sanctuary.

We stayed at Frank’s place for two weeks and had an absolutely amazing time! The house was spotless, well-equipped, and super practical for our two energetic little ones. The pool and hot tub were perfect. We made the most of every sunset soaking in the hot tub, followed by peaceful late-night floats in the pool under clear, starry skies. We fished off the jetty most days and caught barracuda, mangrove snapper, plenty of sharks—and the neighbors even hooked a tarpon and landed a grouper! The kids loved snorkeling right off the dock, spotting rays, turtles, and loads of colorful fish. We missed the manatees when they came by one morning, but luckily caught up with them later while kayaking through the mangroves. Huge thanks to Frank for being such a fantastic host. One day we had a small issue with the pool, and his team showed up in under 10—absolutely amazing service. We truly didn’t want to leave and would come back in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!

We enjoyed our stay. The home was comfortable and very clean. It was nice to have a view of the water and a heated pool! The rooms were comfortable and accommodating for our family. Naomi was quick to respond when we had questions. I would stay here again! This spot was close to many restaurants, grocery stores, and right on bike paths!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay here! It couldn’t have been any better. The house is laid out in a perfect way inside and out to make you just relax and enjoy the relaxed Key Largo way of life! There is an abundance of lovely towels for the bathroom as well as the pool, all showers are stocked with shower gels and soaps – it feels like a 5 star hotel! We appreciated all the personal touches very much. We love wildlife and we saw Manatees swim past us a few times, ospreys around us and such beautiful bird song. The layout allows you to enjoy the day downstairs on the deck in sun surrounded by palm trees and shade on the lovely outdoor seating area whatever you wish and the BBQ facility allows you to cook and enjoy the outdoor life. Upstairs has a great balcony place to sit outside at night around the table and enjoy dinner fully enclosed with mosquito netting so that you don’t get targeted or bitten. We loved our kayaking around the Mangroves and all the wildlife you can see

Absolutely amazing! Tanya’s Airbnb was the perfect venue for our wedding. The space was stunning, beautifully maintained, and created the most magical atmosphere for our special day. Tanya and Lana were incredible hosts—responsive, accommodating, and truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Our guests couldn’t stop raving about the beautiful setting and how comfortable the stay was. If you’re looking for a dreamy location with a fantastic host, this is it! Highly recommend! Let me know if you’d like any tweaks!

Great attached townhome/duplex with privacy fence between the other side. Great private pool just on the canal! The bottom story was perfect for extended family to have privacy but still be close! We even saw a manatee in the canal.

This was the most perfect Airbnb for our vacation. First of all, Marathon is the perfect location if you are looking to explore multiple parts of the Keys. 1 hour to Key Largo, 1 hour to Key West. We could not have asked for a better location. The home looks just like the photos and was perfect for our family of 4 + our pup. The beds were comfortable, the living space had plenty of room for our crew, but the real show stopper was the pool. If we weren't out and about exploring the Keys, we were definitely in/by the pool! A few added bonuses: (1) K-cups for our use for that first morning. This kept us from having to worry about an emergency grocery store trip the evening of our arrival (2) pool floats available for our use (3) bikes & kayaks for everyone (4) EVERYTHING. We couldn't have asked for better - we will definitely be back!

Every year our family vacations somewhere different in Florida. We all agreed that after 7 years of renting large pool homes, this was the best. The pool area is enormous, with different seating arrangements. There is a barbecue area with a dining table and chairs. Kayaks and stand up paddle boards are gratis and my 10 year old grandson learned to cast properly and catch fish right off the private dock. There is a second covered deck off the main floor where we spent many restful hours. There are many things to do in the area. Crane Point Hammock, Bahia Honda State Park and the Florida Keys Aquarium were enjoyed by all! Coco Plum Key is located almost midway between Key Largo and Key West, so there's something to do for all ages. This house is smack dab on the water with beautiful sunsets and if you're lucky you'll spot dolphins and manatees swimming by. Enjoy this special place!

Very clean and hosts are very responsive. Couldn't find the toaster that was listed. Nice to have beach towels to use for the pool located next door or when going to the beach. Enjoyed having a cooler, beach chairs and umbrella to use for a beach outing. Loved the backyard with a fire pit and Adirondack chairs however the highway runs right behind it and it was a bit noisy. The pool next door was very clean and relaxing. We enjoyed our stay and the recommendations for restaurants and things to do in the area.

We stayed for 11 nights at Wendy's beautiful home. We had everything we needed for our entire stay. The area is very quiet and peaceful. It was so lovely walking up on the water and enjoying breakfast outside. Extra touches like having bikes and kayaks to use were also sooo nice! Wendy was very helpful with local spots to check out as well. We will definitely be back!

What an amazing stay!! The campground was so peaceful and tucked away from everyday reality. This trip was a much needed escape from our everyday life! The cottage was very new and clean and came with all the amenity’s needed to enjoy all the local beaches. The host was great and responded immediately with any questions we had. We will for sure be back again :)

We loved staying here for the two nights we were on the Keys. The patio outside was great for looking at the stars or sipping coffee and watching manatees. We would definitely return!

What a fantastically beautiful place. right on the canals leading to the sea with spectacular views. Great hosts who were super responsive. Highly recommended

This was one of our favorite Air BnB rentals. The house was easy to get to from the Miami Airport, but was far away from the hustle of Florida. The amenities at the house were extraordinary and appropriate. Michelle was in the oversized hot tub twice a day while I was out on the canoe exploring the mangroves and fishing alongside Manatees and Stingrays. The dock provided multiple locations to be in, or out of the sun to fish, read or take in some sun. I did all three at the same time! The fire pit was in the perfect spot where we cooked most of our dinners. If you are looking for a spot for a mellow time to get away from the Northern cold and snow to relax, this is the spot. Sean was more accommodating and proactive with his replies and suggestions than most. There is even a sign on the refrigerator with his cell phone noting that 'if you are not having a 5* vacation, call me, and if you are, call me to rebook'! From the attention to detail throughout, he meant it!!

If we could rate this 6+ stars out of 5, we would! Manuel was super easy to reach, he provided simple and clear instructions, the guards at the gate were easy to work with and available for 24/7 entry and check in.. the location is unbeatable for a boat owner! You dock right at your back door, clean your fish at the back door OR at the marina, immediate access to the Atlantic.. perfection. The home itself is extremely clean & beautiful. The kitchen and bathrooms were all stocked with anything you’d need as well as even the laundry room! We truly felt at home but twice as relaxed! Thanks Manuel!!

We enjoyed our stay! Nice location, right on the water. We were able to jump right in the kayaks and get out to spend the day on the water. House was just as described and had everything we needed for a weekend getaway. Host was great and very responsive! Thank you.
