Two blocks from new and improved Coco Plum Beach! (See picture). Irma did leave us one gift, a super improved and larger beach. Coco Plum is just outside of Marathon and next to Key Colony Beach Florida in the Middle Keys. Very quiet and safe.

Private pool and hot tub located on a rare secluded property at the end of the street on Bonefish Bay which makes it very peaceful. Large backyard and pool is absolutely private.

    Nice place! Great pool area!! If I have only one thing to say it would be to make it easier to get the kayaks and boars in the water. The dock sits high up off the water making it hard. They have a floating dock but it’s to dangerous to jump on as an older man. Having a walkway or some way to get to a lower dock for boards and kayaks

    This was the most walk stocked house I've ever rented. They thought of things I didn't even think about. From laundry bags for swim suits to sunscreen. Beautiful spaces and the surroundings houses available for rent didn't compare. If privacy and the view are important to you book this house. From the driveway to the back yard your pretty secluded and able to enjoy the peace you came to the Keys for.

    This property was Amazing!! The house was setup for entertaining. It was very spacious and comfortable. We were able to grill out and cook indoors.They had everything we needed for cooking and grilling. The pool was very relaxing; we used it everyday. We were able to ride bikes and Kayak. Kayaking was made easy with the lift. It was easy to get in and out. Everyone loved the dock, especially at night with the green water light. We were able to see a manatee, lizards, iguanas, and all kinds of birds. The house is situated in a very quiet area and within good distance from Key West to Miami! The owners were great a communicated in a timely manner. We would highly recommend this property and would love to come back!

    We all had a Great time…Again! We’ve stayed in this home before and loved it, so we came back for more! The kayak lift was new since our last visit and it was GREAT. Easy to use and the kayaks and paddle boards were great! We will definitely come back again! (Everything is a 5/5…I gave a 3 for cleanliness because of the floors and kitchen countertops, which were quickly remedied. It’s nothing that would stop anyone from enjoying this beautiful home in the water!!!) Love it!!!

    This was our third time renting in the Keys and it was the best by far. It has everything - especially now that they have a super new dock and kitchen. It’s very private and calm without being isolated. The house is spacious and beautifully decorated, all the beds are very comfortable, the pool area is fabulous - we particularly loved the pool because it’s much bigger than the usual ones - you can swim in it rather than just sitting! We also really appreciated the kayaks, paddle boards and bikes provided for guests. We loved going for an early morning bike ride!We had a slight problem with the spa but Joely was quick to respond and got it fixed so there are no worries there should any issues arise.We very much hope to rent this beautiful home again next year!

    The home was great. We had plenty of room for 5 adults. We enjoyed the convenience of docking the boat at the house and left to fish early every day. Our hosts were responsive to any needs that came up, even offering pre-trip fishing advice which came in helpful. The kitchen was well equipped with everything necessary for family meals and the screened porch overlooking the bay was an added plus. We took advantage of the bikes and kayak usage as well. Truly a lovely home to stay with family or friends.

    Absolutely incredible property! The house was recently remodeled and the owners did a fabulous job at it. The pool is much larger than we expected and the new dock is incredible. We loved the privacy of the pool area and the ability to sit on the screened in porch to watch the boats go by. We docked our 24' CC easily at the dock and the channel to the ocean is easy and convenient. One of my boys caught mangrove snappers, grunts, and even a tarpon from the dock. Lots of manatees and dolphin as well. We look forward to returning!

    We loved staying at this house so much! The location was perfect. There is a lot to do in and around the immediate area. The pool is gorgeous and there is plenty of outdoor furniture. We rented a boat for a couple of days and docked it at the house. We saw manatees many times, and even saw dolphins swimming in the canal behind the house. The kitchen was well stocked. The beds were all very comfy. The hosts go above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need. We would love to stay here again!

The house is beautiful and well maintained. The pool and beautiful tropical surroundings made being outdoors such a treat! We loved fishing from the dock and appreciated the use of the Kayaks.
