Independent Marathon hotels

"The view of the Atlantic was beautiful. The rooms did not get cleaned some days until very late and we had to ask for more coffee and cups, as well as towels the first night. All of the staff members that we interacted with were very friendly and courteous"

"Great location and amazing views"

"Really a fun experience floating on the marina in our private houseboat. We were pleasantly surprised at how much storage room there was for our stuff, and the kitchen was pretty well stocked for making breakfast or lunch. Daily visits from manatees and some other sea creatures (small sharks?) were very welcomed. Location was central to all the various keys and attractions, including a beautiful beach just down the road."

"Parking was easy and appeared secure, AC ran the entire time, was loud but kept the room cool. The bed collapsed in the middle and was marginal at best. Sheets were clean, few towels and no room service between the 2 days we stayed. The furnishings and bath were quite old, many stains in shower and sink, did not shower due to the condition. There was a security light that flashed in our room every 15 minutes the entire night. Very disappointing for a special getaway."

"The pictures look photoshopped. The room is dated and very small. We didn’t last 2 hours before we decided to go elsewhere. Learned a lesson, no cancellation policy Look Elsewhere "

"The staff was very nice, our room was spacious and comfortable, the area has lots to do"

"Parking was excellent and easy and check in as well. The beachfront property is awesome with chairs and umbrellas. The swimming pool and hot tub were top-notch. I will be staying there again in the future."

"This is a really cool place to stay! I have stayed at several different places in the Keys and this one of my favorites. The room was awesome with a kitchenette and a living room area. Good sized bedroom and a huge shower. Every was really clean and smelled good. Nice pool area. It’s an older property so it’s not like a Hilton or anything but a lot of character and charm"

"Beds were not comfortable at all. Not enough pillows. Many of the staff didn't speak good English. Spa was closed cause they dont have anyone to work there. Restaurant was good with great service."
