  What a gorgeous property! Our rental was an absolute perfect space for our family of four. The space was impeccable clean, well-stocked and beautifully furnished. Everything that we needed was available to us without any request. The staff at Marlin Bay was incredibly responsive and easy to communicate with. The pool and marina grounds were in comparison to an exclusive resort. If there was food available on the grounds, it would have been 100% perfect!

  We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Marlin Bay Resort and especially our marina front unit (#3820). The unit itself and the overall resort was exactly as pictured on their website. What a beautiful home for our family of six (all adults) with lots of space (indoor and outdoor). Thank you for the great vacation that felt very safe (COVID).

  Marlin Bay exceeded all expectations. The property is spotless, not a dirty window to be found, not a flower out of place. The crew is super meticulous and it shows. The professional way that check in is handled was impressive and the electronic tablet handy. Lots of special touches in the house. Very well accompanied down to BBQ tools and excursion towels. We did not want for a thing. Residence #3820 was stunning with views from every space, Roof top with 180 degrees of the Atlantic. Sunsets were special. Absolutely loved our stay, can't find anything to criticize and we are critics!

  Nancy S from Sarasota, FL recommends this vacation rental

  From start to finish, our vacation was delightful. Upon arriving, our instructions were simple to follow since everything was contactless due to Covid-19. When we entered the house, it was super clean, bright, and welcoming.
  
  Fortunately the weather was delightful which made the pool so appealing and refreshing.
  
  Every element of the property was immaculate: the house; pool; outdoor seating; the landscaping; and the bar (I highly recommend the mango daquiris).
  
  I will be returning and wouldn't hesitate to recommend staying at Marlin Bay to anyone. It has my highest recommendation.

  a guest from Emerson, New Jersey recommends this vacation rental

  6 adults enjoyed a 5 night vacation at marlin bay from 2/26-3/2/20. checked in easily at the magnificent club house. club house had coffee and water stations, pool and shuffle board tables, wet and dry sauna, and tons of soft seating and big screen tv’s. pool area was beautiful, with ample soft seating and a bar. joey, the the barman, kept us all entertained, and was filled with info regarding local restaurants.
  
  the unit, 3820 was right on the marina. plenty of living space, three levels containing basically 3 master suites, each with its own balcony. each suite nicer than the next. kitchen was state of the art. topper was roof seating area containing l-shaped couch set up, large coffee table, and two chaise lounges. ty he roof was the perfect spot to watch the sunset, and provided a panoramic view of the marina and pool. already looking at dates for christmas/new years holiday.

  We have been traveling to the keys for 30 years and normally stay in Islamorada. This year we were lucky enough to find this property in Marathon. This was our second stay here this year and it is amazing. The vacation homes are luxurious, modern and superbly appointed. The marina is convenient for a boat-just jump on and go. The staff is super professional and friendly. I can't say enough positive things about this place. The rooftop deck in our unit was great. There is a superb view from every room.

  John R from Rae vald, Harju recommends this vacation rental

  We have totally fallen in love with house. Very impressed!
  
  We arrived late on July 16th, due to a foolish navigational error, but had no difficulty gaining access thanks to Rob’s instructions, which were very clear.
  
  We arrived after dark but were still very impressed with furnishing and amenities of the facility. Next day - just reconfirmed our “at dark” impressions and added even more satisfaction.
  
  We have experience of Marathon house renting in the past, and were very happy, but after your house... there can be no comparison! You totally beat them all!
  
  Attention to details and even washing liquid (both dishwasher and laundry) - little touches- very pleasant and convenient!
  
  It felt like we were the first clients in this property. Everything looked so new and untouched.
  Also, it’s impressively clean, which for us is very important and we appreciate this very much.
  For a rental property it’s very nicely finished and well laid out.
  
  Cleaning services were great. Our friends left a week before us and your team made a great job of returning the house to its original state. Truly appreciated.
  
  You have great team looking after the place and we are very grateful to all whom we meet.
  
  Thank you very much for allowing us in to your “home away”. I believe that we looked after it well and we would definitely look forward to visiting you again (hopefully next year).

  The best in the Keys. Going to the Keys once meant you had to rough it as everything was dated. This property is outstanding. The only negative is the $370 cleaning fee. We only stayed for three days and that is a lot for such a short stay.

  It is a beautiful resort setting with impeccable homes that are furnished beautifully. The grounds are also beautifully maintained, from the marina to pool to club house. The staff is attentive and very professional. We enjoyed walking to local restaurants (especially Key Fisheries), our fishing charter picked us up at the marina, and we were able to charter a small boat that we kept at a slip at the marina. We are already planning a trip back!
