The villa you're staying in offers complimentary use of a marina boat slip (Please note, at this time, the boat slip is unavailable for this unit. Slips are available through the marina to rent at an additional cost, outlined below). To use the slip, you are required to execute an In-Kind Lease, and the marina charges a lease approval fee. Additional services provided by the Master Common Area Property, available for a fee, include trailer storage and access to a private boat ramp.

••• Current Fee Structure (subject to change based on marina guidelines):

• Lease Approval Fee: $50 (discounted for transit renters), $100 for long-term renters (more than two weeks)

• Ramp Fee: $11.25 per use

The marina association has specific requirements for any vessel staying on the marina property:

• The boat must have a minimum of $300,000 in liability insurance, with the marina named as additional insured. This information must be provided to the marina by your insurance company, with the additional insured noted on the boat’s declaration page. A form will be sent to you at the time of booking, and we will forward this to the marina on your behalf.

• The marina association lease must be fully executed. The process is electronic—you can fill out the form, send it to the dockmaster, or call. Our dockmaster will guide and support you through the lease process.

IMPORTANT: You are fully responsible for your boat while it is in the leased slip or marina, including any costs or damages related to injury, or to the leased slip, marina facilities, or other association property caused by the boat, its owner, or related persons.

Relaxing Getaway
My husband and I along with another couple stayed for a few nights while we were in town for our annual fishing trip in Marathon. The home provided us a relaxing space to stay, gather and close to everything we needed. We chose this location as opposed to a hotel so we could relax in mornings with coffee on the back porch together and have more of a private getaway to eat in if we desired. The location and amenities were an added bonus, although we didn’t use the pool during our stay, it was open and others seemed to be enjoying themselves. We met several other guests staying in other units around us that have been return guests and we can see why. Beautiful, well maintained and equipped with whatever you might need during your stay. A relaxing location overlooking the canal and nicely decorated home with comfortable beds. Great table for game night off the kitchen and our favorite was the back porch where we spent most our time when we were at the house. We would definitely recommend this rental and plan to return as future guests. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The property worked well for various sleeping requirements.

Likewise it could have been better with a few extra toilet papers! TV worked well and the setting was great.

Best trip I’ve had
This place coupled with the marina next door was absolutely perfect for our trip. They were attentive, quick to respond and answered questions quickly. The slip by the unit had power and fresh water to clean and keep the boat clean after a day on the water. The boathouse marina next door is outstanding as well. They were very helpful for with our boat. Thank you to all and definitely going to try to stay there again. Marcos

Great location, Management Could Be Better
Stayed 4 Nights in December 2023 with 4 adults and 2 toddlers Pros: -Clean -Good location -Towel/Linens/Toiletries provided -Nice layout -Fully stocked Kitchen Cons: -Management company requires you to sign all rights away as part of rental agreement and has your credit card on file to charge you for any reason -AC is very old and instructed not to set temp below 72 as it will freeze unit and you will be charged a service fee -Fridge was really old, sign instructed you to only place food inside for first 24 hours. Fridge didn't actually work when we arrived. We called the next morning, had to schedule a tech to look at it, and a new fridge was delivered by 6pm. There was black water all over the floor, which was wiped up but never cleaned. We ask for $100 of spoiled food to be reimbursed, but as of this writing the management company has not replied. Minor Inconveniences: -Had to wash beach towels before departure -5pm check in unless you pay extra $112 -About 150 feet from parking lot, which can be cumbersome when checking in and bring in groceries -Main couch is show and you can't lay down if you are over 5'10" Queen bedroom has very little room to walk around bed

We have stayed at Coral Lagoon many times. The location is great.
It was a nice time - But 2 things detracted from the stay. 1. The 5 pm check in time is uncomfortable - losing the whole first day. Just seems with a standard 10 am check out and a check in that would be less than a 7 hour turnaround would be both achievable and appreciated. 2. The lounge TV didn't work properly - so we had no usable TV in the main lounge. With a 7 year old a TV is a must in a property of this nature. The property manager did visit the property after check in to Help with the TV problem. - but resolution never came, We followed up the next day and was told by the rental l company that they had phoned the TV company. We heard nothing more from the TV company nor rental company. So remained TV-less. I don't mean to complain, but just hope it can be resolved for the next incoming clients.

Great house and location undermined by average customer experience
First off, the house is really great - good location, spacious, comfortable beds and nice view on the Marina. Kitchen could be better equipped (as an example, although the house can host a whole family the only frying pan was for 2 people maximum). The placemats were also dirty and have obviously not be cleaned. My main point is about the overall experience - after booking, I tried to reschedule but did not really receive any clear answer besides "we normally do not accept rescheduling" Fine. Then I had to finalize the booking (it was already fully paid) by signing a 25 page contract; most of it did not apply as we were not bringing a boat but still had to go through a horrible online experience that took forever. The contract states that if you bring pets, they cannot go on the furniture, cannot be left unattended or have to be kept in a crate etc. Does not make you feel welcome. I sent as requested picture of my pets plus their vaccination certificate. Closer to our trip, I received a request for sending the same documentation. Follow up message was stating that I would receive the entry code one week prior while I got it at 4.30 PM on check-in day, after already receiving a message "almost time to check out," I love VRBO as it feels like a home away from home, but in this case I felt like I was dealing with robots
