Epic "Therapy"
This villa was absolutely more fantastic than the pictures, felt like a brand new condo- spotlessly clean, light and airy, brilliantly and beautifully decorated, extremely spacious, very comfortable beds/couches. TVs in every room, massive TV in front room. The views were breathtaking, our parking spot was steps from the front door. We had easy access to owners/property managers as needed. Directions to the villa and check-in instructions were very descriptive and amazingly easy. They have a fast Wifi connection for husband to work remotely- the network and password is posted for easy accessibility. The kitchen has more accessories than I knew what to do with, very well appointed. The pool water temp was so comfortable. They gave us recommendations for restaurants/activities/certain local companies that were very helpful and valuable. Great AC was very appreciated. The only bad thing is that we had to leave this peaceful piece of heaven on earth... One of our best vacations ever!

Thanks for taking the time to write us the detailed 5 star review! Come back when you can :)
Great Place in Marathon!
My hubby and I stayed here with our son and family for a week. After we figured out how to enter the community ( was not informed it was semi-gated meaning there’s a gate that is activated when it senses a vehicle), we wound our way around to the Villa. Assigned parking spot was very tight so we parked in overflow which was just a few steps further. The actual rental unit is wonderful with a fantastic location and view - right on the canal with views of the ocean. It was clean and comfortable and even our 7 lb jackapoo enjoyed staying there. Would certainly stay there again!

thankyou for your 5 star review. Each Villa has 1 close covered assigned parking spot near the front door. All additional guest vehicles are very close in the overflow lot. We welcome you back again anytime!
Beautiful Property!
We had a wonderful stay at the Seas the Day. The house was extremely spacious, clean and very nicely decorated. The Canal was steps from our porch, and having a boat slip included in rental-we rented a boat for the week, which was glorious. Every afternoon around 3:30 manatees would come into the canal for a visit. Sombero beach is just a few minute drive, as well as many delicious restaurants and activities. Very friendly community and the owner was very quick to respond to text messages and very easy to work with. The only thing that was a challenge to work around was not having a pantry or cabinets to put food away, as we had to store it all on the counter top. Would highly recommend this beautiful home to any family.

Thankyou for your 5 star review. We also LOVE the manatee visits! Indigo Reef is one of the best places to be able to have a boating and fishing vacation! Our family also loves to cook and eat most meals in the house, so we often put our extra dry good groceries for the week in the cupboards above the fridge and over the stove. You've been lovely guests, know you are welcome back any time.
