A really nice place to stay in the keys

My husband and I just completed a 4 night stay over New Year at this property, firstly I am very glad we booked as when we drove down highway 1, we didn't see a resort that didn't say "no vacancy"
The room was wonderfully clean, and when we arrived the ac had been left on for us,though we had no need to use it again - we're from Barbados and Florida in winter feels nice and cool! it had been updated very nicely when compared to the other units we saw, with a new kitchen and bathroom, lovely floor tiles and nice tropical style furniture, everything worked, the kitchen was well equipped, there was a nice big safe in the wardrobe, hairdryer etc we would recommend this place in an instant, booking was straightforward it was easy to find and although there arn't any great views to be had, who spends time looking out of windows when you have the keys to explore!
We had a great day Kayaking around the Mangroves courtesey of Wheels to go (they also rent bikes) their office is opp Mcdonalds on Highway 1, who dropped the Kayak off for us at Sombrero beach,gave us a great map, we saw loads of wildlife also had a fantastic meals at both Castaways and the Sunset Grille, never got a chance to use the bar or pool at the resort but did have a walk by the canal - again saw pelicans and a giant Iguana!
If we ever go back to Marathon this is where we will stay A+++++!!!!!
