IB50 Relax & Renew | 3 Bed, 2 Bath

Laid-back luxury awaits you in the heart of the Florida Keys. This canal front home boasts open concept living with 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms just minutes away from the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico at MM52 in Marathon. An open-floor plan with a wall of windows, screened-in porch and two private balconies overlooking the pristine canal includes a saltwater pool, hot tub, private dock, spacious bedrooms each with their own tv and ample closet space, indoor and outdoor dining, outdoor shower, grill and both sun and shade options in the backyard make this home the perfect place to relax and renew on vacation. The split floor plan is ideal for multigenerational families as well as two families traveling together. This chic Keys home affords guests a feeling of casual elegance. The bedrooms in this split floor plan are as follows:

• Primary bedroom is a private, comfortable retreat with king bed, ensuite full bathroom, room to work from home, flat screen tv, walk-in closet, and a private balcony overlooking the canal.

• Queen bedroom with private balcony overlooking the pool and canal has its own tv and ample closet space. Shares the hall bath with the bunk room.

• "Bunk room" with twin over full and twin over twin bunk beds and flat screen tv.

The open concept living/dining area is fabulous for entertaining with a 60” flat screen tv for those must-not-miss events and a dining table that accommodates 10. This home is fully stocked with everything you will need for your Keys vacation including wifi, hairdryers, laundry, beach towels, grill, and fully stocked kitchen.

The deep-water canal, easy access to the Gulf of Mexico, water/electric hook up, fish cleaning station and bait freezer make this home a fisherman's dream. Be sure to bring your boat or other water toys. There is a boat ramp in the neighborhood (Aviation Blvd Boat Ramp) and enough room for off-street parking for your boat trailer and 2-3 cars/trucks. Please note that if you plan to travel with a boat, we can only guarantee that one boat will be able to fit at the dock. Please be sure you are familiar with the dock size and do not assume more than one watercraft can be secured at the property.

Lovely rental

The house is very nice. It was clean and comfortable. The pool and hot tub were very nice. We had 5 adults staying there and 3 of us were very comfortable in our beds. The third bedroom has bunk beds which are great for kids but not for my adult kids. Our only complaint was that we like to stay in and cook for a few meals and the pans were in very poor condition along with there being no items that help out like salt or pepper, aluminum, zip locks. This is rare not to have. Also one roll of toilet paper and no Kleenex is extremely stingy for such an expensive rental. All in all we had a beautiful week and the house is clearly well taken care of.

Awesome vacation stay

We loved our time at this home. This was our second stay and it was better than the first. The pool is warm and having a (real) hot tub is perfect. The house is clean and has plenty of room. The owners were kind enough to let us know about a boil order due to a water main break that we would have otherwise not known about. The property is near the airport, like many vacation properties in Marathon, but there are rarely planes after dark. We will definitely stay again!

Just what we needed.

Our family enjoyed some time together celebrating my fathers birthday. Paddle boarding, boating and just relaxing together was made even more enjoyable by the atmosphere we were in. Relax and Renew is a fabulous vacation home.

Great Water Access

Great deep-water access & close to boat ramp. Neighbors provided excellent fishing reports. Other than 20 mph winds a great week. The amenities were wonderful given we could get on the water only 2 days. We plan to schedule another stay.

Great Getaway!

This was our first time staying in Marathon and we had a grerat time! The house was super clean and fully equipped. I brought my flats skiff and convintly had it stored in the car port or on the dock in the back of the house the house. The waters were easy to navigate and the fishing was great. We really enjoyed the pool and hot tub to cool off or warm up after a long day of boating. We would definitely rent this house again if we are back looking to stay on Marathon.

Great vacation spot

Loved staying at this home. It was in a great location and very easy to get our boat in and out of the canal. Not as easy to park boat at the home. We loved seeing the manatees and fish in the canal along with the iguanas on the property. Wished he A/C didn’t shut down so easily with no movement during the night because we would get hot quickly. Once you were up and moving the air kicked on and was very cool. Master shower barely drained so while you took a shower you stood in a pool of water. Everything else about this home was great and we really enjoyed our week here.

Great place to stay with a boat

Place was exactly as described. A couple other reviews complained about the airport and the squeaky beds. The airport is not a big deal at all you here planes a few times but not enough to be annoying. The bunk beds are the worst there is. Everytine anyone moved you could here them squeaking all night.

Enjoyed our stay!

Property was very easy to find and was very clean and spacious! The pool was definitely smaller than it appears in the pictures, but still nice and cool in the hot sun! Kitchen very spacious. Rooms were nice and clean, however complaints about the quality of mattresses. The shower in the main bedroom barely drained and both showers were very slippery. We had to replace the propane tank to the grill on the first use. Overall, highly recommend this property and would stay here again.

Loved our stay in Marathon. House had perfect layout for our 2 families of 4. We had plenty of space to spread out and hang. Loved the open kitchen -living room area and the bunk room for kids was great. Kids and adults enjoyed pool and hot tub. We fished in the canal and even saw a manatee. Location of house was very central and easy to get around from. Would definitely return here.

Beautiful home. Fantastic weather. Only problem and it was not that big a deal was it is very close to the airport with many private jets constantly taking off. If you want to fish, use live shrimp! You will do great!

Beautiful Home with a Backyard Aquarium

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Relax and Renew! Our party had two families of 4 with children 10 years - 14 years. We couldn’t have picked a better property to rent. Being on the canal was one of the most interesting and amazing experiences ever. A few minor issues that had no impact on our trip - the beds are all loud and squeaky. Using both showers at the same time is near impossible due to water pressure and temperature. Now, for all the AMAZING pros of renting this property. The bedroom set-ups are perfect for traveling with two families. The master bedroom is spacious with a HUGE closet and lots of drawer space. A nice private deck can be accessed from the bedroom. The queen room has a big closet and plenty of drawer space. There is a deck accessible from this bedroom. The bunk room is tight and no drawers but big closet with shelving for clothes. The kitchen is very large and well-stocked. The large dining table was perfect for meals and game nights. The living area is beautifully decorated and the couch and chairs are comfortable. *Be sure to keep adjusting the thermostat back to your desired temp. A Nest is used for this unit and it was set to 75° so if we were outside or out of the house for any length of time (including night while sleeping), the temp automatically went back up to 75° which was WAY too hot for us. It cools down quick and there are lots of ceiling fans to keep it comfortable. The outside area is the gem of this property! The enclosed porch with a table for 4 and 2 comfortable lounge chairs was perfect for breakfast, lunch and hanging out. The patio has 4 comfy, reclining lounge chairs with cushions that were great. There were also stackable patio chairs to use for fishing or to place around the pool. We paid to have the pool heated and are glad we spent the extra money. The pool is the perfect size for the amount of people the house holds. The pool and the hot tub were clean upon arrival and because there area doesn’t have sand or grass, they stayed very clean throughout our stay. The hot tub lights did not work but there are plenty of lights outside that it didn’t bother us. The beautiful bush by the pool is absolutely stunning but the leaves overtook the pool many mornings and a pool cleaning net was not providing (we bought a toy net to use and it worked). No pool or beach toys are provided, not fishing supplies. The kayaks were great but no life vests provided but we had our own. All in all a PERFECT home

Week Stay!

The property was clean and as described. The only complaint is the beds were very squeaky in all rooms. If you rolled over it made noise. Would suggest owners get some new mattress/box springs. It appears they use the house as boat was on the lift and would think they wouldn't like the beds either. Other than that the place was great!

Relaxation!

We stayed here for a week and it was our family of 4 and 2 adult friends. This house was setup perfect for that! Wonderful layout of kitchen/dining/living area. Wonderful screened porch and wonderful pool and outdoor back yard. The pool was super clean and the house was too. We wanted a get-away after an unrestful 2020 and this was in a quiet neighborhood and very private. Only suggestions: more cups for drinks and upgrade no spring in queen bedroom as it was super loud. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Fantastic Christmas Getaway

This rental was the perfect home away for our week in the keys over Christmas. The house was immaculate upon arrival, communication with the property manager was extremely fast, the canal/boat docking was perfect for our 23ft boat, and the amenities were perfect for our family of 7. We were there with our 3 children, son in law, and granddaughter so it was great to have the pool, hot tub, paddle board and kayak, boat dockage, screened in porch, and nicely equipped house to keep us all entertained simultaneously. We had a great week!

Relaxing family get away

My family truly enjoyed our stay at the #Relax & Renew property. The home is exactly as shown and very clean. We did not have any concerns or issues with the property during our stay. All that is needed to fully enjoy the property are your own beach towels! The weather wasn't as great as we hoped, but with the added pool heat and the hot-tub, we were still able to have a great time. I would highly recommend Marathon - easy to drive around and great restaurants to choose from. Our favorite was Porky's Bayside.

It was a nice place just a little small for our group! I had 4 adult boys that used bunk room! It is small for grown boys! It worked but needed more space! Also the towels were damp and folded on shelf! Bring own towels as there are only 8! I understand that COVID is to blame for that! Either way it was a beautiful clean place and we had a great time lobstering this year! Thanks for allowing us to enjoy family time in the keys!
