Photos and Description of the Marathon vacation house rental 4 Bedroom, 3.5 Bath Comfortably Sleeps 8

This two-story, ocean-front Florida Keys home is the ideal locale for busy executives, families, retirees and vacationers alike. Developers thoughtfully considered every last detail when designing and constructing this architectural masterpiece – from its breathtaking, scenic ocean views to its high-definition flat-panel televisions in the living room and all four bedrooms. This sunrise beach house is elegantly decorated with classic charcoal and crème tones. Interior space is enhanced by rich custom wall mosaics, while the home’s exterior is graced with professional landscaping, lounge chairs, a hammock and two, four foot pool-side hand-carved granite statues. Designer furnishings extend into the two master bedrooms, where visitors are greeted by plush, luxurious king-sized beds and attached bathroom with Jacuzzis. Two additional bedrooms house lavish twin beds, one with walk-out French doors and year-round ocean views.

The temperate Florida Keys provide an atmosphere all their own, with idyllic tropical temperatures, clear, shallow waters and white sandy beaches. Step onto its shores and wrap yourself in its serenity. Steeped in tradition and history, The Keys have provided a rejuvenating retreat for the likes of Ernest Hemingway, who penned his infamous novel A Farewell to Arms while living on the islands, and Tennessee Williams, who purchased a home on its shores. Marathon, coined the Heart of the Florida Keys, is located at the center of the island chain and connected to the southern islands by the famous Seven Mile Bridge, the longest fragmented bridge in the world built in 1985 adjacent to its original counterpart. The bridge, offering a scenic view of the Atlantic ocean’s sparkling waters, has been featured in several movies including True Lies and 2 Fast 2 Furious. Anglers are drawn to its “longest fishing pier in the world”, where they can catch dolphin fish, yellow tail and barracuda.

Notes: With incredibly mild seasons, the Keys rise and fall just 12 to 20 degrees year-round. Residents and visitors enjoy average 70 degrees in January and 80 to 90-degree summer months. Warm tropical showers and thunderstorms roll through the shores between May and October, creating an extraordinarily moody, romantic and dramatic ambiance. The Key’s cobalt-colored waters and coral reefs are a haven for scuba diving, snorkeling, sailing, kayaking and boating. Sport fishermen flock to its waters, with 10 percent of the world’s salt fish records set just off the shores. Visit the Adelaide Baker historic shipwreck, Telta Shoals and the famous Thunderbolt wreck dive site. Swim with dolphins or indulge in local Eco Tours. The opportunities are limitless. Arts abound at the nearby Tennessee Williams Theater, while The Key West Literary Seminar draws hundreds of new and well-known creative writers each January.

Heaven on Earth

BL/RF Holiday Fl.
Review Submitted: November 10, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
We stayed for two full weeks and had the best time of any vacation we have taken.The amenities that come with the home are far more than one would expect. Every morning it was walk out the end of the dock and watch some of the most beautiful sunrises you could ask for. The pool is very inviting no matter what time of day it is. Insid the home it is as if you were in your own.You have the feeling of comfort as if you belong here. The owners have thought of almost everything. We were contacted a couple of times just to make sure we did not need anything. We had family come in from Berlin and they were very impreesed by what was offered to us for our stay. We met the neighbors and they were very helpful with info. on the area and good places to eat and for fresh seafoods at reasonable prices.
We would love to return and look forward to our next visit.
I don't think you can find anything around this area with a better value for your dollar spent.
The wife and her brother fished from the boat dock and had a fantastic time without even leaving the property.If you are looking for a central location close enough to Key West without the cost and congestion this is the place you need to be.We as a group (7 of us) would like to thank the owners for providing us with a dream stay.
I would also like to thank Homeaway for providing a very detailed and accurate website

Ideal location for total relaxation holiday

Taranna Coventry England
Review Submitted: September 6, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Sunrise Gateway House is an ideal holiday house for all types of vacationers. We travelled from England in mid to late August as a family of four and from the second we arrived until the second we left, the house had everything to make the ideal relaxing summer holiday. All ammenities were as described, but a website cannot do justice to the quality of the house nor the great views out over the Atlantic Ocean. Carolyn and Terry were very courteous and easy to deal with, and once in Marathon, if you needed anything, the feeling was that people were there to help you, but if you were happy to get on with it yourself, you had great privacy. Locally the area is made for ourdoor living. We loved the pool and bbq, but were able to arrange snorkelling, fishing, paragliding, swimming with dolphins etc.... all without travelling more than 10 miles. There is an abundance of places to eat from the fine dining of Butterfly Cafe, to the laid-back Wreck and Galley grill, with a massive selection in between, and we were delighted that the tropical storms and hurricanes which are always a risk in the Keys stayed away. We have stayed in many villa's, houses and good hotels throughout Europe and the US, and this would rank as the number 1 amongst them all........hope to be back next year!

Great Vacation Home

Julian and Julie Portsmouth, United Kingdom
Review Submitted: August 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
my wife, my two daughters and myself stayed at sunrise getaway house during week beginning July 25, 2009.
we can only describe the house as fantastic, the pool is brilliant and the view superb.
from the second we picked up the keys we had a fantastic holiday, visiting key west and the local beaches but best of all was swimming in the pool, fishing from the boat deck and just relaxing in the sun.
The local restaurants were good value with great food and publix supermarket is only 5 minutes drive away. we saw lots of wildlife including nurse sharks, land crabs and an iguana walking past the pool. it was also fun saving the odd happless crab which fell into the pool.
In the evening we had a glass of wine on the balcony and there was a tv in every room. all the rooms are spotless, spacious and nicely decorated.
this is also a great house and location for children of all ages, with plenty of things to keep the younger ones occupied.
we are now back in rainy old england and have only one complaint about our holiday at sunrise getaway house - we should should have stayed for two weeks not one!

Perfect Family Retreat

MoJules Joplin, MO
Review Submitted: August 7, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
We stayed at this beautiful home with our daughter, son-in-law and 2 grandsons. The house and all it's amenities made us feel like we were at home. The weather was cool while we were there in March 2009, but that didn't stop the boys from enjoying the heated pool and hot tub. It's central location made it ideal for all of our day trips to our favorite places to visit in the Keys.

Thanks Carolyn for sharing your beautiful home.

wonderful property

neuja Jupiter, Florida
Review Submitted: August 4, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We were looking for a spacious, clean and newer rental to accomodate 4 adults and 4 teenage girls, family visiting from Europe that had not been to the Florida Keys yet. Prevoius rentals in Marathon were rather dissapointing but with this property we found exactly what we were hoping for.

There is nothing missing in this house, just bring yourself!
The landscaping is beautiful and offers many different seating areas everywhere. The property manager was very helpful and had someone there within minutes when we reported the pool was cloudy. From the minute we booked our week in Marathon, we received perfect communication and all questions answerd immediately.

We brought our jetski which we could launch at the Marathon public boatramp. During our stay the tide got really low in the afternoons, so we had to plan excursions early.
This is a wonderful place to relax, the numerous pictures on the website describe everything into detail and when
you arrive there, you will not be dissappointed!

Hopefully we can repeat this very relaxed family reunion sometime!
