House and location were perfect. Very close 5 minute walk to the beach. Pool was great! House was very nice for 3 couples. Each couple had their own bedroom/bathroom and wasn’t on top of each other. House had everything we needed. I would definitely stay again in the near future.

The house was just like listed! We paid to heat the pool & it was well worth it & so warm with the cooler weather we experienced while there. Host communicated well, answering all of our questions & giving us all the information we needed for our stay. Perfect location, less than 1/2 a mile walk to sombrero beach. House was easy to find & had plenty of room for 3 couples!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was Beautiful and very clean. Each couple had their own bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen had anything you needed and a very relaxed environment. I loved being able to see the pool from the kitchen, kitchen table, and master bedroom. Pool was so much fun to have, although it was a little warm, but we did stay during literally the hottest week of the year. Meredith was very easy to communicate with and ensured we had everything we needed. Location is perfect with this house for what we needed, short canal ride to the Atlantic, short car ride to all kinds of restaurants, grocery, and marinas. The outside hut with the TV was such a fun place to relax. Just an overall perfect trip with a lot or memories made.

Very clean and and well equipped kitchen!

Our family of seven enjoyed this home for a week. Home was very clean and we didn’t have a single issue arise during the week. Home was very spacious and open throughout. Having stayed in several homes in Marathon, we appreciated the extra products in the kitchen (dish soap, trash bags, plenty of paper towels for the week!) Also appreciated the number of large frying pans in the kitchen - something that I rarely see in vacation homes. Bonus- they were stainless steel! Boys weren’t able to fish the canal due to collection of sargassum but they did enjoy the pool. Very conveniently located to the beach, stores and restaurants. We will definitely book our next rental with Pineapple properties as we definitely noticed the difference in the home and it was appreciated!

Great Stay

We have stayed at many Marathon VRBO's in the past and this place is at the top of the heap. Great location, great pool area. Kitchen well stocked with quality utensils. No steps to climb was a plus. Even caught a tarpon off the dock one day. Couldn't ask for a better place to stay!

We’ve stayed at Tingler several times and it never disappoints. It was nice to see and use the new tiki hut on the back deck. Great place to stay for a week, if we’re back in the area we’ll definitely stay here again.

Everything about this property was absolutely amazing!! The setting and location were perfect. We rode the bikes to breakfast almost every morning. We kayaked from the house. We enjoyed the pool daily. Sombrero Beach I just around the corner. Meredith went above and beyond to answer questions and fix minor issues that came up. She responded immediately and was very easy to talk to. We are already booking with her again!! Highly recommended!!!

GORGEOUS property!!!

We stayed April 1-8 and LOVED this property! We have rented over a dozen homes all over the country and I can say without hesitation, this was the best appointed property we have had the pleasure of renting. The kitchen is organized and has everything you need. Including cleaning and paper products. The paper products are the good kind, paper towels and toilet paper are not cheap and useless. Cleaning products are all provided, and again, all of it was what I would buy, not just the bottom of the line options. The beds are comfortable, especially the king in the master :) The pool is amazing, worth it to pay to heat it. We spent several days just lounging in and around the pool and it was awesome. There are a couple of curly tailed lizards (we named them Kevin and Carol) that have clearly learned what meal time means. The minute we had a meal at the lovely dining area outside, they were right there and ready to snap up the tiny bits of fruit or shrimp we would toss their way. We LOVED them!! Finally - Meredith is THE BEST property manager we have ever worked with - hands down. She is super responsive, and answers any questions promptly and was so friendly. She also gave us a head's up when she was not going to be available and who would be if we needed anything. That was a first for us. She really goes above and beyond to ensure you are completely satisfied. Highly recommend all the way around.

This was our second year in a row at Tingler Retreat. House is immaculate. We love the location because we also rent a boat and can tie up right behind the house in a very protected canal. Pool is great. We spend almost no time indoors. Kitchen has everything you need. Great place!

Something for Everyone!

The Marathon property was great! The home was spacious- wonderful kitchen for the cooks and bartenders in our family! Daily bike rides, kayak trips, paddle-boarding, and fishing. Great luck catching fish off the canal deck in the mornings and evenings. Comfy outdoor loungers for the readers and sun seekers. Manatees, a wide variety of birds and fish, and green iguanas for the nature lovers. Huge plus was the easy navigation for our 90-year-old mother. One step into the home, one step to the pool deck and easy steps and railing into the pool. We paid extra for the heated pool- temperature was perfect! Handy location- easy trip to Publix, Sombrero Beach, and Marathon Deli and Liquor for a fabulous Italian Sub! Thank you to Meredith, Pineapple Properties- terrific communication and attention to detail. Lovely property- enjoyed our two weeks!
