    Located adjacent to the property is a boat launch and marina with lift service, fuel dock as well as indoor storage in case you wish to leave your boat in the Keys for your next trip! We have had several guests stay at Sea Forever, store their boat indoors then return a month or so later in the season. Their boat is stored close, safe and ready to go for their return arrival! Email us for more details and dockmaster info to the neighboring marina.

    We know that boating and fishing in a new area can create a learning curve. Upon request, we will provide our guests with some coordinates and locations of terrific fishing spots and snorkel areas. Marathon and the surrounding waters offer some of the best sport fishing, reef snorkeling and wreck diving in the world. We want you to get your vacation going from the minute you arrive.

Corporate Rental

Excellent location and comfortable rental. Kayaks, pool, dock, deck, outdoor areas were a nice plus and well maintained. We had issues with a slippery tub and requested a non-slip mat, but it was not provided over the next 6 days we were there. Hopefully this has been fixed. Overall, this was a nice property, and we would rent here again.

Great Property and Great Location

We loved the home, took the kayaks out daily, enjoyed the pool and the manatees in the bay, and loved walking to restaurants and short drives to all Marathon had to offer. Thank you for a great stay!

Anniversary Vacation

Beautiful property. The pictures were “spot on”! There were a few glitches - sliding doors did not lock, the hot/cold hoses were switched on the washing machine and the exterminator serviced the condo while we were there.

Vaca cove vava

The house was beautiful, it had everything we needed. Except for one thing it should have slept 10 and it only slept 84 bedrooms three heads, double and queen,beds, and one had two twin twin twins. My grandson slept on the couch in my five-year-old in a playpen. It would’ve been nice if the sofa or loveseat would’ve pulled out into a bedThat is my biggest complaint

Inaccurate sleeps amount

Vrbo said the unit sleeps 10 but does NOT. It sleeps 8. It was extremely u comfortable for a tall 16 year old to sleep on a couch!!!!! We assumed the couch was a roll out but it wasn’t! Total fraudulent advertising. There were cockroaches in 3 of the bedrooms. Bathroom fan leaked after rain storm. Furniture is old and needs replacement.
