Retirement Trip
This was a long awaited trip and the property did not disappoint. We did not find ourselves in need of anything. The home itself is FULLY stocked, clean and extremely comfortable. The outdoor area is beautifully landscaped and provides plenty of privacy. We spent afternoons swimming and sunning, then hopped onto bicycles for some easy riding. We highly recommend you book your next trip to Sunny Daze!

Great House
Perfect home for us- my husband and I, 2 adult children and one teen. Bedrooms were comfy and house was decorated nice. My hubs and sons loved the outdoor space to watch football while swimming. I loved the beautiful landscape that made the place like our own private little resort. We had a boat for the week. This is my only complaint. It was almost 30 min to get to the ocean after idling through the canals. The upside is you are very close to hwy 1. Property manager was very responsive when we had questions. We enjoyed the use of the kayaks and bikes.

Didn't disappoint
What an absolutely beautiful property. Well appointed, and very clean. We had everything we needed in this property for cooking, entertaining, and relaxing. Michelle (property manager) was very helpful, quick to respond to questions no matter how miniscule the issue was, and super nice and friendly. We had a great time with our 2 teenage boys, and 2 other couples that joined us. The pool area was absolutely perfect with the refrigerator and icemaker. It was nice to be in a newer house and just to enjoy the luxury it had to offer. We have been travelling to Marathon for years, and we will definitely be looking to spend more time at this beautiful home. Please do not hesitate to rent this property for your vacation, I promise, you will not be disappointed.

Gorgeous place!
This house and property was amazing! So homey and comfortable when you walk in. The beds are fantastic, we had great nights of sleep not just me and my husband but our whole group. Each bed was great. If you plan to be on the water every day like we did, I will say it’s a 30 minute putt out to the ocean so just be prepared for that. This house is pretty far back on the canal. But it’s a gorgeous and lovely boat ride back. My one suggestion or dislike of this particular stay was the checkout time being 9:30 AM and the additional checkout requests. I’ve stayed in a lot of rental homes but this is the only one I’ve seen have it’s guest wash all the towels, fold them and put them away along with washing all the dishes and unloading them to the correct places. However, this home owner said she does have 8 properties! So I’m sure she has her plate full. All together it was a wonderful stay!

Perfect house - beautiful backyard
House was exactly as described. Very clean and well layed out. Everything we needed was there. Manager was very responsive and friendly. The backyard area and pool is very nice. Way nicer than all the houses around us. We would absolutely stay at this house again. If bringing a boat, just know that this house is a ways up the canals. It takes about 30 mins to get to open water. The ice machine and freezer is a huge plus for folks fishing. Great setup for fishing. Also, two of the bedrooms share a hallway bathroom that they are not connected to. For some reason I thought it was a Jack and Jill bathroom.

This place was perfect. Plenty of space for 4 adults, 6 kids. Michelle was very helpful and accommodating. Our boys caught a ton of fish right off the dock and we all enjoyed the pool and backyard space. Great location. Used the 3 kayaks, 3 bikes, ice machine, and bait freezer every day. We would definitely book again.

Great spot in the Keys!
Great house and location - close to grocery, restaurants, bike/walking path outside the house and 2 mile bike/walk to Sombrero beach. Great set up to house - master on one side overlooking channel and other bedrooms/baths on the other side of living room & kitchen. Outdoor patio upstairs as well as lower level beautifully landscaped around the pool with privacy. We rented a pontoon for the week and enjoyed fishing, boating to restaurants, sand bars and Sombrero Beach. We also rented paddle boards and boarded around channels and sand bars. We drove down to Key West one day and soaked up 7 days of fun in the sun! As everyone has said Michelle is super great and responsive.

Very simple to relax, to work if needed, and suggestions for activities if one wanted to venture out! Michelle was very communicative about the property, and when to expect the service crews, and the rental was beautifully decorated and well cared for. This is the type of rental that made you start looking for property in the area. You will not want to leave. I just left and I’m looking at my schedule to see when I can come back.

Beautiful ave to Stay
The house delivered more than expected. The backyard felt like we had our own oasis. We rented a boat for the week, snorkeled at Sombrero light house (be sure to tie to a mounting ball you will be right at the reef) and fished. The ice machine on the patio was a huge bonus. The house was lovely. The bike and walking path outside the house made it convenient to get some exercise before it was too hot. Short 2 mile walk to Sombrero beach was worth it. Michelle was very helpful and accommodating.

Best Vacation we have had in a long time!
This place is gorgeous! The entire backyard feels like we ran away to paradise, oh wait, we did! Fished everyday off the dock and caught fish of all sizes and grilled almost daily! The pool was nice and relaxing, cleaned the day of check in, that made us feel more comfortable hopping in the pool. Didn't have to go far for ice for our drinks, they have a commercial ice machine right there and were able to fill coolers for beach trips and fishing without having to go buy ice. House is pristine, clean and welcoming. Books throughout the house and music was on, making us feel like we were spoiled. Plenty of towels for everyone, beds were made and comfy, and the property manager was so helpful from booking to answering questions we had while we were here. We are planning our next trip down and will be staying here! Thank you for an amazing vacation.
