FISHING:
Our efficiencies are located ideally for fishing in the Florida Keys.

You can fish by boat on the flats a couple hundred yards from our dock for Bonefish, Tarpon and small Sharks. Shallow reefs only a mile or two away offer Yellowtail, Mangrove snapper, and Mackerel in abundance. The Gulf Stream offers Dolphin, Wahoo, Tuna, Sailfish, you name it. This is a boating and fisherman’s paradise

Lobster can be found under rocks and ledges on both the Atlantic as well as the Bay side (during season).
Fishing from the Jetty is a lot of fun. There are small sharks, Tarpon, various Snappers and Grunt.

KAYAKING:
Our marina provides easy access to shallow water bordered by mangroves, and some small mangrove islands less than a mile from the marina. This is a great area to Kayak, you frequently see small baby sharks, tarpon, rays and a variety of tropical fish and birds. Duck Key Island is about 2 miles from our dock.
Kayaks can be rented at marina located directly across the street.

BIKING:
Grassy key has some quiet streets suitable for biking. Bikes can be rented at marina located directly across the street.

LAUNDRY :

Peace and quiet

Our host were very accommodating. They have an informative booklet that explains everything in the area. Due to the climate of the Keys you will need your bug repellant for mosquitoes. The community is very quiet, we felt safe. There was a large patio for entertainment and the garden was beautiful. These hosts love their guests.

Cute little bungalow on Grassy Key

This was a peaceful place to stay in the heart of the Keys. The bungalow was beautifully decorated and offered many amenities like a kitchen, pool and jetty to watch the sunsets. Hans was a great host and the neighborhood was super friendly. Would definitely stay here again.

First visit to the Florida Keys

Efficiency unit. Small, clean and homey. Hosts are very responsive. There was a binder with recommendations for things to do and restaurants which was very helpful and appreciated. The jetty is great for views and/or fishing. Marathon is great base location to explore the keys. First time in the Keys. Loved it and would rent again.

Amazing, simply amazing

It’s exactly as advertised, the jetty is beautiful, plenty of mangroves and grunts to catch (occasionally a tarpon comes by). The view is breathtaking and worth waking up and staying to hang around for! As for location in the keys it is perfectly in the middle, you can go do the downtown barcrawl scene and it’s only an hourish away, Islamorada and key largo are also not crazy far either! The managers are very attentive and very on point about everything, over all a wonderful experience!

Florida Keys honeymoon!

Our stay at this property was absolutely wonderful! Centrally located in the Florida Keys with easy access to lots of different activities. The neighborhood was quiet and well-kept. The unit itself was well furnished and decorated. The only thing I would ask for is two fishing poles to use, because there were none in the shed . The barbecue grill looked brand new and was very clean. The people we met walking around were friendly, and the pool was a nice extra to have after a long hot day.

Strangers in Paradise

Beautiful sunrise each morning from the jetty… sunsets on the water just across the highway…lovely neighbors. The packet of things to do was so helpful. We loved Burdines, Sombrero and Curry hammock beaches, fish pedicures, Key West but especially the glorious creation all around. Thank you for a clean, safe, and comfortable stay in Marathon. May the Lord Bless and keep you. The Rigleys

Charming Setting. Clean. Gracious Hosts.

This Lovely Cottage is in a private, quiet and friendly community just outside Marathon which makes it a convenient centralized location in the Keys to beaches and activities. Hans and Lisa are beyond wonderful and gracious hosts with excellent communication and have created a charming setting for their guests. The cottage we stayed in was a set of 3 adjoined cottages which gave us the opportunity to make some great friends with the other renters. My husband and I were totally impressed with the cleanliness and upkeep of the property. We are looking forward to coming back again and will definitely be staying here. There are so many positives for this property but honestly read the listing. It is 110% accurate. You will not be disappointed. Thank you so much again Hans and Lisa.

Great Little Hideaway in the Keys

Came down with my son to congratulate him for recent academic performance and really enjoyed this little retreat - far from the Ritz but just what you would expect from a moderately priced unit in the Keys. Low stress check-in and friendly host and a perfect spot to spend a few days relaxing. Foldout couch was so uncomfortable that I let me son sleep in he bed and I took it (I drink more than him lol) Could have used some extra pillows and blankets but otherwise had all of the essentials.

About the host

Hosted by Hans Moller

Host profile image
Married couple, Engineer and Teacher. Enjoy spending time in the Keys, fishing, snorkeling,and enjoying time outdoor.

Why they chose this property

We invested in our rental-units after visiting Florida Keys for 20 years. We decided that Marathon, Grassy Key, is the ultimate Keys location. People are nice and relaxed, it is the place you go when you want to get away from the “rat-race”. Fishing, Lobstering and snorkeling is phenomenal. While Islamorada and Key West are fun places to visit, you will find the Marathon area more quiet, it's the best part of the Florida Keys. Key West is only an hour drive away, take a day-trip.

What makes this property unique

Provides more of a good old days Keys experience. But we also provide the modern comforts with quiet Mini-Split AC, TV, WiFi
Enjoy our private setting. Listen to the birds, gaze at the stars at night, mingle with friendly people who are in the Keys to have a relaxing and good time.
A dock can be rented for $25/night (max 25 foot, Boat insurance is required)
