As owners, this was love at first sight with our little pink house in paradise! Enjoy the Keys state-of-mind in this modern-coastal Florida Keys stilted beach house located in the desirable Sombrero Beach neighborhood. Ideally located, our house is within walking / biking distance (0.8 miles) to one of the nicest beaches in the Keys, Sombrero Beach (ranked in top 25 beaches in the US by TripAdvisor - #22). We are a short bike ride or two minute car ride to Sombrero Beach (walk/bike path). Down the other direction on Sombrero Beach Road, you will find two supermarkets (Publix and Winn Dixie), Walgreens Pharmacy & Publix Liquor Store. Local shops, tennis courts, 18-hole golf course, gym, boat rentals, boat charters, great local restaurants, bars and fun family attractions are just a short drive away.
Located in Marathon, the heart of the Florida Keys, our location is convenient for day trips to Key West, Islamorada, Key Largo, and all the keys in between. Whether you enjoy relaxing on the beach or boating, fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking, world class snorkeling, diving, biking, pristine sand bars, day trips and/or sightseeing, this location provides lots of options for a memorable vacation, getaway or staycation!
In your backyard, there is a private 50' dock with plenty of room for a large boat and/or water toys. This deep-water dock is equipped with shore power, fish cleaning table, fresh-water hose connection & dock ladder. The house is located on a wide canal (deep draft) for easy navigation in and out. Boat rentals are also available in Marathon and can be delivered to your dock.
Relax in the evenings sipping your favorite beverage under the stars in the back porch overlooking the dock & canal. Unwind in the new 6-person spa / hot tub (Nov 2023) with lounger, LED lights, waterfall and attached bar. Enjoy sunset dinners in our Adirondack dining table overlooking the channel. Pull up a chair to the dock and watch the fish surround the underwater LED lights.
Three bikes (with baskets) along with one adult tricycle with room for your cooler/towels. In addition, two paddle boards and two kayaks are included for our guests, along with beach chairs, beach towels, cooler, snorkeling gear (2 sets), etc. Additional water toys or bikes are available for rent in Marathon & can be conveniently delivered to your dock.
Lots of fun activities and attractions for the family are just a short drive away:
Crane Point Museum-Nature Center Historic site; Bahia Honda State Park (beautiful beaches....ask us about our favorite); Sombrero Reef (snorkeling charters); Aquarium Encounters (hand feed sharks); Dolphin Research Center (swim with the Dolphins); Turtle Hospital; Seven Mile Bridge; Old Seven Mile bridge (newly renovated pedestrian recreational walk/bike path), Pigeon Key tours; Florida Country Club with 18-hole golf course & tennis courts and more.
