Waterfront vacation rentals in Key Colony Beach

We had a great time staying at this property. We liked it because it is very easy to get to, has it's own beach, and has plenty of room for a family. Key Colony is a real gem IMHO. We wanted a property that put us in a central location in the keys - 45 minutes to Islamadora, a little over an hournl from Key West, but in a place that is great for snorkeling and water activities. This place fits that perfectly. The property is easy to check into to, Yuni give a code in advance for the door. Parking is under the building in the shade (big plus) and right in front of the elevator. Super convenient! The kitchen is nice, we cooked meals on probably 3 nights. Beds were comfortable and there is a washer/dryer that is really nice to have on vacation. Great host for sure. If in the keys again I wouldn't hesitate to stay there again as it was a very positive experience.

Place was nice and peaceful. We enjoyed the down time. Enjoyed laying on the beach and soaking up the sun. Only thing I can say negative is the tide was high and had lots of seaweed so u couldn’t get in the water but that’s out of ur control. Definitely somewhere we will return too in the future.

Rhonda's place is terrific! Lovely location with full water views. Pool was excellent. The home was very comfortable, clean and convenient to restaurants and stores. Would definitely rent again.

Wonderful views, quiet. Clean and had free laundry. Just what we were looking for. Beautiful property with balcony, patio and rooftop deck. Centrally located and close to shopping Good places to eat nearby

Indira’s place was very clean and so relaxing for our family. We liked watching fishing boats come and go while sitting in patio. Marathon is a great place to visit with so many family friendly parks and attractions nearby. I recommend it.

We enjoyed a week at this place. Everything was perfect. The view was excellent and it was very quiet. The place was very clean and I was surprisingly happy with the amenities. The community pool was well kept. I will be recommending this place to family and friends.

Danielle was a wonderful host, and her place was absolutely beautiful. Great location, and the biggest plus was that they offered convenient items on property for use at the beach, kayaking in the bay, and just clean fun while taking an easy day around the house. We had everything we needed plus more while there. I would certainly consider staying there my next trip to the keys. Marathon Key was my favorite, anyway. 10/10 recommend this property.

Roberto is by far the most thorough and conscientious host. We were so pleased with our accommodations and immediately felt at home. The use of The Cabana Club was a real bonus on the hottest days. Will most certainly return to Marathon!

Everything was excellent. Only complaint would be the bicycles. One bike was usable but the seat was loose and we didn’t have tools to fix it. The other adult bike’s chain was rusted so bad it wasn’t usable. We still had an excellent experience.

We loved our stay at Jeffery's house. It is spacious and very comfortable. My husband appreciated the proximity to the pickleball courts - we could see them from our bedroom windows- and my son enjoyed fishing off the dock. The upper suite was wonderful for privacy and quiet when the older kids stayed up later than the adults. Jeffery was super helpful and responsive. We would love to stay here again!

We enjoyed the beautiful hot weather, a fabulous dock with tables and chairs and a beautiful view of the ocean. While we had loads of kayaks to choose from, it was a too windy to utilize them. Overall the enjoyed our stay!

Our first stay at this property was truly unforgettable, and we can't wait to return! Francisco is an outstanding host, always quick to respond and attentive to every detail. The house exceeded our expectations—it was spotless, fully equipped, and conveniently located near stores and restaurants. The outdoor area was a peaceful and inviting space, thoughtfully designed with a refrigerator, sink, hot tub, gas fire pit, and ceiling fans to keep you comfortable. The soft lighting added a warm and welcoming ambiance, perfect for evening gatherings or simply relaxing under the stars. We especially loved the canal, which was incredibly easy to navigate and provided quick access to the ocean—a paradise for fishing enthusiasts! We even caught fish right in the canal, but the absolute highlight was spotting manatees from the dock. If you're looking for the perfect getaway, look no further. Book your stay with Francisco—you won’t regret it

Alfonso is a very responsive host who provided clear details, local recommendations (multiple of which we used), and provided a place in a great location. Neighbors are friendly. Place was clean. Perfect for our family with a 14 and 6 year old.

We didn't know anything about Key Colony so based our reservation strictly on reviews and price. Well worth every penny that was spent. What a wonderful tropical getaway! Can't wait to visit the Keys again with my 4 children and husband. If you're looking for a great place to spread out and enjoy family this should be your rental.

The hosts were so accommodating and friendly. The space was newly remodeled with excellent quality and style of workmanship. It was also immaculately clean and incredibly well stocked. Our family of five (three young adult boys) was always comfortable. The hosts thought of everything you could want on vacation. They worked with us to make sure we had a place to dock and use our wave runners, there was outdoor dining and grilling space, complete with a filtered ice machine and an outdoor chest fridge for any fishing, a beautiful spot overlooking the canal, a pergola over the sitting area to provide extra shade, and the house itself was gorgeous and well appointed with plenty of space. We’d love to visit again!

We had a great time! Awesome community with walkable restaurants and bars. We loved the local beaches. The people at the complex were super nice. Our four boys loved running from the pool to the beach. Everyone we met was very nice. Great instructions and recommendations. Loved it!

Fantastic Last-Minute Stay! We decided last minute—just the night before—to extend our stay in the Keys, as our kids were having a blast during their break. Our original place of stay in Marathon wasn’t available for another night, but thankfully, Frank’s place was. Even with our 11 p.m. booking, Frank was incredibly accommodating. He welcomed us warmly and communicated everything clearly, making check-in a breeze. If we take another family trip to the Keys, Frank’s place will be my first choice—I only wish we had found it sooner! The views of the water were stunning, and watching the sunset from the porch was truly exhilarating. Highly recommend!

Angela’s space was neat, clean and well stocked. When we had questions, she answered immediately. When we couldn’t find a can opener she quickly brought us a new one and even included a sweet treat! We couldn’t be happier with our stay. Thanks Angela!!

Great experience, great host and accommodations. Hot tub wasn't working while we were there, but repair was delayed over the holiday week which was out of the hosts' control. Very communicative and responsive.

Great property in Marathon. Well maintained and perfect size for our family.

Great spot to spend days for vacation. Great service by office staff. They took care of all requests we had in the most friendly manner. The hotel is located right on the water, so views were great. Nice pool and great vibe. Would highly recommend.

Words can't really express the beauty of this rental inside and out. Fully stocked with whatever your needs are. Full sized washer and dryer were perfect. Absolutely spotless inside. Beach towels were ready to go as well. The two porches were wonderful for relaxing and taking in the breathtaking views. We saw a family of 7 manatee several days in a row. A family of parrot fish almost every day (several times a day). We saw a VERY LARGE sea turtle just hanging out in the bay. Lots of tarpon, several sharks, pinfish, yellow snapper and several conches (even one queen conch). It is worth it to snorkel feet from the porch. My daughter even caught a shark. The pier was perfect for fishing and watching all the wildlife. The landscape is beautiful. The pool is amazing (I used it almost every day for a bit and no one was down there). I cant say enough good things about this space. It's worth every single penny. We will DEFINITELY be back!

Great little place for our family of 4! Very clean and the location was perfect for us. Would definitely stay again!
