    Yellowtail is an amazing home! Clean, spacious and perfect location to everything. Mornings were so peaceful on the porch drinking our coffee. My boys loved the pool and my oldest enjoyed being able to fish right from the dock! The owners, Michelle and Larry are great hosts and so accommodating. The one thing I would like to have had available is a stick vacuum or small hand vacuum to be able to get the daily dirt and hair cleaned up. But, other than that, having all cleaning and laundry products already there was such a big plus! As well as condiments in the fridge and some dry spices in the cupboard. Definitely nice not to have to buy those items. We would definitely LOVE to stay here again!Kerri B.

    Michelle is a great host! She took care of all of our needs and answered any questions we had in a timely manner. House is in a great location with a private pool and dockage for the boat. We seen lots of fish and even a manatee swim by one day. Our family loves Marathon!

    We stayed here the week of Christmas. Everything was great. The house was nice and clean, and Michelle was very responsive to any questions we had. Our only complaint, which had nothing to do with the house or Michelle, was that Mother Nature didn't fully cooperate during our stay. But that's winter time in Florida.

    Perfect house for the keys. Nice deep canal with quick direct access to the gulf but tucked away enough to keep out of the winds. All the amenities downstairs for water activities and the inside was spacious, clean and up to date. Highly recommend

    Stay for the week during many season, caught our fair share. Could have limited out both days, but or the type of people that just take what we need. So got some good grouper and hogfish enjoyed cooking and relax them by the pool. Definitely, a nice canal. Wasn't stagnant. Just a straight shot right out into the gulf of america

    My family and I always vacation in Marathon Key every April. We could not have been happier with this home. It was super clean which is a must for me. The pool is huge and so refreshing. We had so much sea life at the dock. Every morning I started with a kayak ride around the small islands right outside the canal which was lovely. There are 2 bikes which we rode in the evenings. Michelle is amazing to work with. Any questions you have are answered immediately! The house was so well stocked with all your necessities and more. You won't be disappointed if you rent here with Michelle. The home is absolutely gorgeous and Michelle is an amazing Host! We will definitely be back! My family had a blast. This was the perfect home to recharge, reconnect, and unplug from our busy lives. Thank you Michelle for a fantastic vacation! (Also we had a major issue with one of our rental cars . We let Michelle know and she was so understanding! )

    We have been coming down to the keys for many years and the yellowtail retreat is definitely our new favorite place. The home is beautiful, spotless, and in a perfect location. The house has everything that you could possibly need and more. It was so nice to have a beautiful pool to get into at the end of our day out on the water. Nice dock to put our 20ft boat on. Boat ramp 2 mins away. We enjoyed riding the bikes provided. The kitchen is perfect we made dinner every single night. We can not say enough about this great keys get away. Michelle the owner was so wonderful. She immediately returned our text. Great communicator. She made the whole process very easy . We cannot wait to come back!Gloria & Pat BrennanMarch 2025Fort Lauderdale , FLORIDA

    We had an amazing time staying at Yellowtail Island retreat. We have been vacationing in Marathon for the last 15 years and this home was by far the best! It was just as advertised clean, well stocked with all the equipment you need and the pool was wonderful. I would say that the boat slip seemed a little smaller than what was stated online but the boat we rented did fit. Also in the afternoon the sun was right on the pool and there wasn't really any shaded area to sit which was hard when you have kids in the pool and you want to sit and watch on the side. Other than that we truly enjoyed our stay and the location was perfect for us. Will definitely be staying here in the future.
