Grassy Key, Marathon hotel rooms at the Independent

"Fantastic resort! Private beach, beautiful pool and palm trees. The villa was awesome!"

"Great place. Fantastic staff. "

"One of the most beautiful places I have ever been to vacation. I came here 7 years ago and the property has been improved."

"I would rate this property an A. The only downfall was parking but everything else was amazing. "

"Staying on a houseboat was a really neat experience! We reserved the "family houseboat" and it was more spacious than I thought it was going to be, especially the bathroom (which was very important, since four people were sharing it). I recommend motion sickness remedies if that is an issue for you. Though the houseboats are on a rather calm cove, being on water affected both my daughter and I at times; we wore those anti-seasick bracelets. Yacht Haven Marina offers free kayaks and bicycles to use during your stay, nice bonus. Would highly recommend!"

"The hotel was lovely and the staff was attentive. Lots of nice amenities like hammock swings, outdoor chess board, cornhole, 2 nice pools. Would stay there again!"

"The property was very well maintained, staff was very friendly and inviting. Drinks were great at the bar and food was great out of the kitchen. Pool was clean and seemed to be heated. Would definitely recommend to stay at this resort and would come back, Thank you "

"Great for family vacation "

"Love, love love this place!!!!!!! It’s beautiful, laid back and fun. We will definitely be back. "
