Ocean-View Retreat | Pool, Private Balcony & Steps to the Beach

Summary:
Wake up to the ocean from your private balcony, then take your stay at whatever pace suits you. Make breakfast in the full kitchen, walk down to the pool or Coco Plum Beach, and come back whenever you want a quiet hour. The whole condo is yours, in a peaceful complex in the middle of the Florida Keys, with a king bedroom and a sofa sleeper for up to four. It’s an easy base for a winter escape for two, a family beach holiday, or a few active days exploring the Keys.

The Space:
Settle into a renovated condo where everything you need is already in place. The living area and dining table both look toward the water, so the room where you gather each evening is also the one with the view. There’s space to spread out a puzzle, plan tomorrow’s drive, or simply sit and talk.

The full kitchen makes home-cooked meals easy rather than a chore. With a full-size stove and oven, dishwasher, coffee maker, blender, toaster and plenty of cookware, you can make a proper breakfast before the beach, pack lunches for a day trip to Key West, or cook the fish you caught that afternoon. The wine glasses are in the cupboard for later.

The pool sits right below the balcony and Coco Plum Beach is a short walk away, so a swim never needs planning. Head down after breakfast, come back for lunch and a rest, then go out again later in the afternoon. Beach chairs, sun loungers and tennis rackets are already here, which means less to pack and nothing to buy when you arrive. Grills and a fire pit make it easy to stay outside after sunset.

The balcony is the reason to book. It looks over the pool to the ocean, so morning coffee, an afternoon with a book and an evening glass of wine all come with the same view. It’s also a calm place to sit while little ones nap inside.

At night, the king bedroom gives you a restful, private place to land. The living room sofa opens into a second bed for children or another adult, and a travel crib is available for the youngest guests. The bathroom has a tub, which makes bath time simple at the end of a sandy day.

The practical details are handled too. A washer and dryer let you pack light, fresh linens and towels are provided, and parking is free on site. Two Level 2 EV chargers on the property mean an electric car arrives and leaves fully charged.

Marathon sits halfway down the Overseas Highway, about an hour from both Key Largo and Key West. Visit the Turtle Hospital with the kids, spend a morning snorkeling or fishing, try Sombrero Beach for a change of sand, and still be back for a late swim.

Whether the trip is about escaping the winter, sharing the Keys with family, or a few active days on the water, the appeal is the same: the ocean, the pool and unhurried time together, all a few steps from your door.

A few things to know before you book: check-in is 3:00 PM and checkout is 10:00 AM, stays are seven nights or longer, and there is no boat or trailer parking, which helps keep the complex quiet. The pool, grills and beach access are shared with the complex, and the condo itself is entirely yours.

Guest Access:
You have private access to the entire condo.

The Neighborhood:
Discover the charm of Marathon, Florida, nestled in the heart of the iconic Florida Keys. At our condo, you're positioned in a prime spot offering seclusion and easy access to local attractions. Marathon is a quaint tropical city with several keys, known for its laid-back atmosphere and friendly community.

Enjoy the ease of nearby amenities such as grocery stores, charming boutiques, and delightful dining options featuring fresh seafood from the surrounding waters. For the adventure-seekers, the island offers a host of activities like deep-sea fishing, snorkeling, and scuba diving in the vibrant coral reefs of the Atlantic.

Coco Plum Beach is just a stone's throw away, where you can soak up the sun on the sandy shore or stroll through the tranquil neighborhood. Marathon's Sombrero Beach is also within easy reach, offering a picturesque setting for picnics and beachside relaxation.

For a touch of nature, visit the Turtle Hospital to learn about local conservation efforts or explore the Crane Point Museum and Nature Center, a 63-acre hardwood hammock ideal for bird-watching and hiking.

With the mainland's convenience connected via the famous Seven Mile Bridge and the joys of island life, Coco Plum offers a serene escape with the spirit of the Keys at your doorstep.

Getting Around:
You have several convenient options for getting around and exploring the area:

By Car: The most flexible way to explore Marathon and the surrounding Keys is by car. The Overseas Highway, part of U.S. Route 1, connects the islands and is the main thoroughfare. Renting a car would be ideal for those looking to discover various attractions at their own pace.

Biking: For shorter distances, especially around the neighborhood and to nearby beaches like Coco Plum Beach, biking is a great option. The area is bike-friendly, with several paths and relatively flat terrain.

Public Transportation: Monroe County provides public bus services through the Lower Keys Shuttle, taking you from Marathon to other critical points in the Florida Keys.

Walking: For those who prefer to stay local, many of Marathon's attractions, restaurants, and shops can be accessed on foot, especially within the Coco Plum area.

Boating: If you're looking to explore the surrounding waters, marinas in the area offer boat rentals. A boat is a great way to experience the beautiful oceans, go fishing, or visit nearby reefs for snorkeling and diving.

Taxis and Rideshare: Taxis and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft operate in Marathon, providing an easy way to get around without a personal vehicle.

Shuttle Services: Some local businesses and attractions offer shuttle services for guests, which could be a convenient option depending on where you plan to go.

Remember that while the island is well-connected by the Overseas Highway, having your transportation will provide the most freedom to explore the natural beauty and attractions of the Florida Keys.
