Yacht Haven Marina

10/10 Excellent

"It was a nice experience. You are staying on a boat not a hotel. With that you will have some movement during a storm, and the rain can sound loud. We enjoyed watching the sea life from the deck while drinking coffee in the morning. The place was really clean!!! Overall a wonderful relaxing experience, would definitely come again."

Angler’s Paradise & Family Oasis near Sombrero Beach: Pool, Spa, Kayak, New Dock

10/10 Excellent

"This property is phenomenal from the feel of the home it is relaxing and well appointed from the home to the pool and hot tub, the dockage for boats , the corn hole and the amenities of both the first and second floors and the whole house wrap around deck ,The location of the property in Marathon is ideal for the great restaurants from Seafood to steal and Lobster to Mexican . The drive to Sombrero beach is less than three minutes giving you both the best of the beach and the pool at the property.the home is immaculately cleaned and maintained by both pool services and landscaping services weekly.The greatest thing about this property is your property manager Gail she will keep you well informed and is always available for questions and thinks about the small things and provides those which most people will forget. On a scale of 1-10 this property and experience rates a 20 plus. Thanks Ed C"

"George & Virginia both were great with correspondence during our stay. Convenient location with plenty of kitchen amenities."

Boaters Delight! Great Location! Fair Price!

8/10 Good

"On arrival the house was not ready. When we walked in none of the beds were made and dirty towels on the floor in front of the washing machine. I emailed the owner and called the number for the local contact person and to their credit they sent over somebody right away to clean the house. That was kind of a turn off, you know what they say about first impressions. Aside from that the house was nice. Getting out of the canal is VERY difficult! I wish they would’ve left directions on how to navigate the channel getting out. If you bring your own boat beware."
