  a guest from Pelham, AL recommends this vacation rental

  We booked this at short notice, due to Hurricane Ian damage to our original destination. We had never been to the Keys before, and happened upon the property online. We decided to book because of the dockage for our fishing boat and house that would accommodate four adults and a child. We didn't know what to expect, but were blown away by everything there -- the luxurious home, excellent dockage/harbor, incredible service and beautiful landscaping. The pool was the nicest we have ever used, and everything was carefully maintained. There were too many extras to even mention, and the staff was eager to do anything they could to make us comfortable. We couldn't have been more pleased with our ten days there.

  Sandy M from Austin, TX recommends this vacation rental

  Having spent over 40 years from the Windward Islands to Nova Scotia on the water. Marlin Bay Resort and Marina stands clearly above a majority if not all the resorts I have ever stayed.
  Over the past two years I have spent nearly 4 months, at the Resort and Marina. I have used and experienced every amenity, facility, and service offering the Resort and Marina have on offer. These offerings have included the; rental of their largest home, several marina slips and boat lifts, gym, pool, spa, game room, bar, marina lounge and more.
  Marlin Bay‘s facilities across every offering are outstanding. The maintenance, quality, and dedication to providing guests witsuperior stay are a constant, and a high importance to the management and staff. Marlin Bay‘s management and staff throughout the hierarchy are exceptional. Shortly after the moment you arrive the entire staff including the general manager, concierge, security, dockmaster, marina staff, and landscapers know your name, are ever present,and available to support you, and your needs. Our home rental this year was for 28 days, and never once if we had a broken item, or a need for repair, or any service did we wait any longer than an hour or two for it to be addressed. We had the home cleaned 4 times and each time it was immaculate. The quality and level of service is a solid 4.8 to 5 on a 5 scale. Marlin Bay could easily attain a 6-star level rating on a 6 scale if they so desired. Our stay always includes a great deal of cooking, baking, barbequing, and entertaining. The homes are built for precisely these types of activities. The kitchens are fully stocked with all the utensils, pots, pans, glasses, plates, cabinetry, wine cooler, refrigerator, and box freezers one requires in such a facility. The level of detail thought out by the owners in terms of serving guests in these types of rentals is bar-none as good as it gets. The high level of service at Marlin Bay cannot be overstated.

  Great unit, plenty of room for 10. Resort is very well managed. Thought it was nice that they moved games outside since the game room was closed due to restrictions. Kids loved the warm pool temp.Some appliances not working so they brought us an extra frig. Very accomodating.

  Our stay at Marlin Bay Resort & Marina (#3840) was fantastic! We had a beautiful view to enjoy while having our morning coffee or evening cocktails! Our daughter and friends joined us and there was plenty of space for the girls to hang out together, staying up all hours watching movies while my husband and I enjoyed going to bed early. We loved the pool, hanging out by the bar and walking to dinner at the local restaurants! We can’t wait to return next year!

  a guest from Evanston, IL recommends this vacation rental

  We loved our stay at Marlin Bay Resort and Marina. The property was beautiful and staff were very professional. There were a few items I wished were different. The checkout time (10am) and check in time (4pm) were not flexible and both times were problematic. The other issue was the extremely high fee for cleaning. We were paying rack rate for the house (over $1K per night) and a $480 cleaning fee was excessive.

  Our first time in the Florida Keys, and Marlin Bay, Marathan was the perfect place to be! Accommodations were superb and the staff were lovely. Always greeted with a smile and happy to help with anything you needed. Especially enjoyed Joeys company at the pool bar. Had a great wave runner ride with Big Kahuna and watched the sunset from the water - something we'll never forget. Paddle boarding and kayaking with Better Than Most. Sonesta beach for snorkeling. Key West for a day trip. Traveled with 9 of us and the 4 bedroom home was perfect. Thanks Marlin Bay for a very memorable trip. Stock up on the rosè for my return visit Joey!

  Geraldine V from Jupiter, FL recommends this vacation rental

  While planning a reunion of sorts for high school friends that hadn't seen each other in years, I was on a search for accommodations that allowed us to have our own spaces, but also offered comfortable (and functional) community space. We found that and MORE at Marlin Bay. In addition to #3840 being BEAUTIFULLY furnished and appointed with all your needs in mind, the Staff is second to none! From the GM, Claudine Williams and Buffalo Williams who run Marlin Bay, Barbara, Lucia(the Concierges),Scott at the bar, down to the Dock Hands, you will see professionalism at it's BEST! The property is immaculately maintained while offering amenities that will keep you and yours well entertained/busy!!! My goal - "only the BEST for my Besties" was accomplished and CONFIRMED by all my friends! THANKS Marlin Bay - we WILL be back <3

  The house and the staff were immaculate. Our family had a great time. The house was very clean, gorgeously decorated and had high quality furnishings. The staff was very friendly and responded almost immediately to any request. The lighthouse provided beautiful, relaxing views of the sunset.
  
  The only issue was the construction. During our last day the dust and noise were a bit much but we can’t wait to see the new expansion.

  We were amazed by the place we stayed! Lots of room, beautifully decorated, everything we could need and much much more. Our vacation at Marlin Bay Resort was very memorable. We used almost all of the amenities - pool, ping pong table, infused water. The beauty of the marina - day and night - was wonderful. The lights an extra touch. We would definitely consider returning!!!
