About this property

Canal Front, Tiki Hut, Kayaks, Bikes, Pool, Beach!

DOCKSIDE RETREAT is a 4 bedroom 3 bath canal front home that has a private pool, private dock, fish cleaning station, with a green light under the dock, two kayaks, two bikes, and a Tiki Hut for the ultimate Keys vacation! With plenty of parking for vehicles and a boat trailer, a well-stocked vacation rental with everything you need, a neighborhood beach just down the street and located at mile marker 55, in the heart of Marathon, Dockside Retreat is your perfect vacation spot!

There are lights inside the Tiki Hut so you can enjoy the space in the evening as well! The house also has a pack n play, high chair, and stroller! We provide hand, bath, and dish soap, dishwashing detergent, some laundry pods, kitchen sponge/scrubby, TP, PT, bath, and pool/beach towels.

This is a vacation rental and the entire home and property are for the exclusive use of the guests. We have a pin pad on the door and the code will be provided shortly before your arrival. The entire Unit 2, the pool, dock, and parking are available for the guest. The dock accommodates a 35 foot boat. Each unit has one side of the dock for its private use. There is covered parking for two vehicles and additional parking for more cars and/or a boat trailer.

As the property manager, I am available throughout your stay for any questions, needs, or recommendations. You will be able to call or text me directly, day and evening, 7 days a week! If I am needed at the property, I will certainly make myself available any time!

Angler's at Sombrero is a brand new development on Sombrero Beach Road, just down the street from Sombrero Beach - a beautiful oceanfront beach! Sandy beaches are not common in the Keys, so it a real asset to have an oceanfront sandy beach just down the street! Sandy beaches are not common in the Keys, so it a real asset to have an oceanfront sandy beach just down the street! There is a sidewalk all along Sombrero Beach Road where you can bike, exercise, or walk to the beach! About two minutes from the grocery store (Publix and Winn Dixie), a minute from the beach, and less than 10 minutes from any of the amazing restaurants and activities in Marathon, the location is perfectly centrally located! Only an hour from Key West and about 20 minutes from Bahia Honda State Park, you can easily make day trips!

We recommend that you have a car during your stay in the Keys.

We provide TP, PT, hand, dish and bath soap, laundry pods, and dishwasher detergent that should be enough to last a week. We also provide all the bed linens, baths, and pool/beach towels.

Airbnb does not have the ability in their software to collect the Marathon County Tax of 5% so we have to send a separate payment request for those funds. They do collect the Florida State Tax of 7.5%.
It is mandatory that the guest manage their trash throughout their stay. Directions about pick-up days are in the manual at the property and in the Welcome Letter sent out before arrival.

We also ask that you clean the grill to the best of your ability before you leave. Do you not use charcoal in the grill as it is a gas grill.

$45 Management Fee is Damage Insurance covering up to 3k in damages.

A blast with bikes & kayaks
We enjoyed biking almost every day along with kayaking almost every day when it wasn't raining or windy. We also really enjoyed the lighted sidewalks for evening walks to the beach. Paying the extra for the pool heat was well worth it as our weather was not the warmest but still a wonderful week in the keys. The little things like having toilet paper, dishwashing soap, dish soap and soap for every bathroom really is a wonderful touch as well. Thank you for a wonderful stay in Marathon. We also enjoyed the beach chairs, toys and the stand up paddle boards as well. The pans for cooking were also excellent. Thanks again.

This place is awesome! And so Well Equipped!
Loved this place! Came down for a holiday getaway with the family and was perfect for all of us. Unit was well equipped with kayaks, bicycles and all of the water toys for us to not to have to bring a lot of extra with us (perfect for flying in as we did) and since we rented a boat for the week, it made it easy to go out fishing and diving but just jumping on a going. Also, Kitchen had everything we needed, and the heated pool was perfect for the granddaughter! Merideth and the Pineapple Properties team were a pleasure to deal with as well. Overall, couldn't have asked for more!

Dockside
We just returned from our week vacation in Marathon. The house was perfect for our family, we had 9 people and it was very spacious. The bedrooms were nice size. The house was very clean and had everything you would need for the week. Everyone in our group was happy with the arrangements. The outside was also clean, the pool and Tiki Hut was perfect for our nights. We didn’t bring our boat this time but there was a boat dock. Next time we are bringing the boat. Meredith was very helpful, always available for any issues. Which there weren’t any. We will definitely be back Thank you again for everything

Family Keys Trip
This house is one of the best we have rented. I was very impressed with everything that was provided—t. paper, paper towels, dish and laundry detergent, bath soap, pool towels and kitchen items. Most rental provide enough for one or two days, but we had enough for a week stay. The house was tastefully furnished, and the pool and tiki hut was a favorite spot for us. It was too hot to ride the bikes, but the kayaks and paddle boards were used. Meredith was great-always answered the phone immediately. The one issue that we had was resolved the same day. I highly recommend this rental.
