Beach, Private Pool, Spa, tarpon & manatees at your dock! in Marathon

This house has it all - a 5 min walk to Sombrero Beach, hot tub, heated private pool, ocean views, a "fisherman's" dock, high speed wireless Internet, cut flowers, chocolates on your pillows, etc.,etc.

Marathon recently spent $5M renovating Sombrero beach - it's one of the best beaches in the Keys.  The 12' X 28' heated pool is on the west side, so it gets full sunshine for sun bathing in your Speedo.

The fisherman's dock has a large fish cutting station, electric, plumbing, sink, lights for when you return in the dark, and rocket launchers on the pilings to place your rods so they don't get stepped on. There's even a shower to cool you off when you come back. Use the freezer out back for your bait, ice, and your catch. We are on the ocean side, so you'll have quick ocean access to some of the best fishing in the world.

Underwater lights have been installed in the canal - you'll be mesmerized by the fish while you sit on the park bench at night. Let the children cast a line and Voila - they caught a fish in the Keys - something they will always remember. Mangrove snapper, tarpon, angel fish, sting rays, and nurse sharks have all been caught off of my dock. A dozen tarpon have recently been spotted lurking in the shadows (see photo). Rods and reels are provided. Spectacular sunrises over the Atlantic are available off the master bedroom balcony.

High speed wireless Internet, with coverage out to the pool, will let you send your pics to everyone before you leave Paradise A brand new 40" plasma TV is the centerpiece of the family entertainment center. Premium cable TV offers HBO, etc.

The house sits on an unusually large lot, large enough to fit two houses. It sits way back from the street, ensuring your privacy (see photo). Hot tub is on the back deck with a picnic table and a Weber gas grill. We also provide an extra tank of propane, just in case you run out when you're cooking that special dinner.

Our house is fully furnished with everything you'd expect,towels, linens, microwave, toaster, etc...and yes, there's a blender. We also go the extra mile and provide the miscellaneous household products such as laundry detergent, dish soaps, paper towels, etc. - no need to hassle with these upon your arrival.
You will sleep like a baby in our beds, as they all have have 600 thread count sheets. All 3 bedrooms have tropical themes as. Family room TV has a 40" plasma TV - 2 additional color TVs are in the bedrooms. When you arrive you'll have chocolates on your pillows and fresh cut flowers on your table. Master bedroom has a king size bed, the 2nd bedroom has a queen size bed, and two twin beds are in the 3rd bdr. Our house is stocked with plenty of board games as well as outdoor games(croquet) for those days/nights you feel like chillin' at the house.
