Margo's Place Had it All!
This home had everything and then some! Great beach bikes, kayaks - both single and double - beach chairs in the unit that were not advertised with it, so fabulous surprise! Easy access to Inch Beach, as well as walking distance to the Sunday concerts at Sunset Park. Lots of living space and got visits by manatees, rays, jellyfish and even sharks one evening. Enjoyed getting to know the neighbors on either side, who don't rent their homes, so you always know who will be next to you. Loved our time at Margo's Place!

Thanks for your compliments. It was our pleasure to share this nice home with you. We look forward to your return in the future.
Love it
This house was clean, spacious and in a great place. The neighbors were friendly and there is ample parking. Room for 6 and close to everything. This one is a keeper.

Thanks for your review, Tom. It was our pleasure to have you stay with us. Winter season booking is challenging and we will let you know if an opportunity opens.
Has Everything We Look For
First of all, Key Colony Beach (in my opinion) is the best place to stay in the Keys--private, well-laid out, access to ocean and Gulf, best restaurant anywhere (Key Colony Inn), boat docks at almost every house, and convenient to Publix & Winn Dixie in Marathon and to a really good public boat ramp. The house itself has everything we want in a vacation rental--upstairs living space with parking for boat trailer and two cars under the house, a balcony with a table for eating outside in the evenings, downstairs storage, Cabana Club membership (a must for us--private pool and lounge on the ocean with a good lunch menu), a good washer and dryer, location that faces east (so it's cool in the afternoons & evenings in the summer on the balcony), well-equipped kitchen, fast wifi, excellent TV incl Netflix, and easy access to Vaca Cut without having to go out into the ocean. The property mgr is extremely responsive. We'll be back next year.

Thanks, Elaine. Always a pleasure to have you, family and your guests stay with us. Look forward to your visit again next year and hope you get more lobster!Cheryl
Great KCB location with comfortable accommodations
We planned to stay at Margo's Place again for Jan/Feb of 2021. With COVID-19 restrictions applied to international travels for Canadians, we sadly advised the property manager in July we should cancel our stay in KCB for this upcoming winter. They were extremely understanding of the situation, wished us well, and returned our full rental deposit within days. We love this community, this property, the people involved, and truly hope we get a chance to visit again in 2022. Regrettably this will be our first time in 13 years to miss our winters stay in KCB.

Sorry we are going to miss you in 2021 but look forward to seeing you as soon as things get better. Stay safe. Hopefully, 2021 will see better days.
Absolutely Fabulous!
Sunrises, sunsets - magnificent! On the water (you couldn't get any closer!), waves gently lapping while enjoying coffee or cocktails. Comfy beds, fully appointed kitchen, tastefully decorated, extremely spacious living areas. Away from the crowds, serene and peaceful. Enjoyed it immensely, what a vacation, can't wait to come back!!!

Perfect
Very comfortable home. Fully equipped kitchen. Excellent location. PLENTY of parking so you don’t have to pay Key Colony a extra $50.00 to park your trailer. We have a 28 foot boat and plenty of dock space. This Duplex faces EAST which is a huge plus. Our family had a wonderful vacation.

GREAT LOCATION!
HOUSE HAD EVERYTHING WE NEEDED. WE COOK USUALLY WHEN ON VACATION AND THE KITCHEN WAS NICELY APPOINTED. HOUSE WAS CLEAN. BED COMFY. SHOWER HAD GOOD POWER. GOOD WI-FI. ONE SUGGESTION WOULD BE PATIO UMBRELLA DOWN BY THE CANAL FOR LESS SUN WITH MORNING COFFEE.ONLY ABOUT A 8 MINUTE RIDE AT IDLE SPEED ON OUR BOAT TO OPEN OCEAN---NOTE...KEY COLONY BOAT RAMP IS CLOSED. BUT IT'S ONLY ABOUT 1 MILE FROM HOUSE TO MARATHON RAMP. AND QUICK BOAT RIDE TO THE HOUSE TO TIE UP. NICE FISH CLEANING TABLE WITH HOSE RIGHT THERE. PLENTY OF ROOM FOR YOUR TRAILER AND TRUCK. INCH BEACH WAS COOL. WE DIDN'T GET TO THE CABANA CLUB TO CHECK OUT THE POOL THOUGH. AND JEAN IS KNOWLEDGEABLE OF THE AREA. KEY COLONY BEACH COMMUNITY IS FABULOUS.
