Barrett Y.Great stay at Blue Shell!
Our family recently had a week stay at Blue Shell in Marathon, FL. We enjoyed our time at the house, the use of the pool and water access for the boat. Navigating into the canal from open water can be a bit tricky at low tide but is doable and we felt more comfortable after the first time. Southern winds made the canal quite dirty with seaweed and other debris, but that was of no fault to the home owner and would expect with northern winds for the canal to be clean. House was really clean upon arrival and we had no issues while there. We would definitely consider this location again in the future. Thank you!

Matthew W.PERFECT WEATHER
My family stayed at Blue Shell for a week. The house and the pool were perfect. No complaints at all. Beds were comfortable, home was clean and fully stocked. Very enjoyable stay. The neighborhood was ok and if I wasn't visiting with a boat I wouldn't look for a home on a canal. Sort of stinky and nasty looking

Lisa B.Clean and Comfortable Home with a Fastastic Pool
We spent a week a Blue Shell in March and had a wonderful experience. The home is extremely clean,and we found it to be well-equipped and perfect for our needs. The pool was amazing - very few rental homes have a pool this clean and sparkling. There is plenty of seating outside and all of it was clean and it great condition. We opted for the pool heat and were so happy we did since we are native Floridians and would have otherwise not used it as much. We love Marathon and visit often but found this home and rental experience to be one of our best yet. Communication was excellent and timely. We would not hesitate to rent this home or from this agency again.

Mike C.Great new property pleasure to stay.
This house has all you want in a waterfront property. All the interior is new and clean. Since it is new some of the lighting seemed not bright enough. It was sufficient to see but just seemed on the dim side. If you stay here and need a fan to sleep you might need to bring one. There was one standing fan in the master bedroom but the other two bedrooms didn't have anything. Pool has a chiller which was great to cool off after a long day of sunburn, it is an extra cost, I feel it should be included in price, it is not. Pool had plenty of sun exposure thru the day. Boat dock was in great shape no issues there we had a 20 ft boat to dock. The run to open water was a little tricky but it is marked for day use.

Stuart D.Nice pool along with great management!
House was well stocked and comfortable, along with good amenities. The pool was a nice size and relaxing. A straight fast shot to the ocean, and nice and new. The neighborhood is in transition but very quiet. The management team was great! They put together a book on the area that was the best we have seen, I learned some new fishing regulation and clarifications. Great Experience!
