Description

Plein Air Point is the perfect combination of modern elegance and laid-back Keys living. Nestled at the end of Patricia Lane in Marathon, it’s surrounded on three sides by a Florida land preserve, a deep-water canal, and the Gulf of Mexico. This is a wildlife refuge teeming with birds and assorted aquatic life. Plein Air Point is a place to be outdoors: boating and fishing, swimming and snorkeling, reading and painting; a place to plan your next move or start your Opus. And when you feel like soaking up the air conditioning, instead, you won’t sacrifice the view. All but one room at Plein Air Point have expansive views. A 90-foot deep-water dock provides immediate Gulf access. Launch one of our four kayaks or paddleboards, go for a snorkel, or cast a line just a few steps from the backdoor. There are bollard lights on the dock for night-time fishing. A 35-foot heated pool and separate spa are nestled in a private, outdoor area that is covered in travertine pavers. Beyond that is sand, with slate Quoit boards and room to throw a ball. There’s plenty of under-house shade, comfortable seating options, and a four-burner Weber grill. The quiet neighborhood is perfect for cycling, and we have six bicycles and helmets. Most of the artworks (prints) at Plein Air Point were painted by Joan Ross, the artist, and designer whose original vision, along with her husband Bill, brought this home into existence in the late 1980s. This is a second-generation home that has been completely renovated and features a new master suite that spans the entire top floor. Things to know: Free WiFi Full kitchen Private pool This home has a bunk bed in Bedroom 3.

Our family of five absolutely loved staying here. It really does have it all-biking, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming. Even had outdoor/indoor games and puzzles for the one gloomy rainy day. We found everything easy to navigate/use and loved the overall chill vibe of Marathon. We would be more than happy to stay here again!

We loved our stay here and will be back. The fishing off the dock was incredible. Ate fresh caught fish 2 out of our 7 nights! Great house!

The home was very nice and we liked the layout a lot. It was very cozy and homey feeling. The pool & hot tub are amazing and the view is beautiful.

We really enjoyed our stay. The views for sunsets are unbelievable. The pool is perfect and unbelievably cool in the August heat. The dock is awesome for fishing, but could use some improvements for keeping your boat. We did have a minor A/C issue in day 2 like the previous week so might be time to check that out. We already rebooked for next year!
Darren -

Hi Darren, thank you for your review. We appreciate you taking the time to provide us with your valuable feedback.

Your suggestion for dock improvements has been noted for future considerations. We're looking forward to hosting your next stay!

This is an awesome place to stay. The view off of the back towards the gulf is second to none. Awesome pool, dock is great for fishing. I would recommend this place to anyone.
Hunter -

Incredible location and home!!! Couple things need updated like the couch, but better than imagined in other areas!!. Extremely happy overall!
Hope I can stay there again!
Stephen -

Awesome place with great views comfortable, clean and very spacious. Had everything we needed plus some like pool toys, snorkel gear, fridge and ice maker downstairs were a plus! We went out and kayaked around the island, saw lots of fish and a manatee from the dock, caught a nurse shark and enjoyed watching all the iguanas. Kids loved the pool at night with the lights while the adults enjoyed the hot tub. Favorite place to eat in marathon is Lazy Days South, must try the Hogfish sandwich but get it lazy style! Lots of great places to swim/snorkel close by…Sombrero beach is really close for swimming, Coco Plum is good to walk along for free beaches. We can’t wait to come back and relax in your piece of paradise…thank you!e
Joshua -

this was a fabulous house we enjoyed our stay and all the wildlife we seen would rent this house again
Christine -

What a wonderful home, stay and location! We loved it, saw lots of cool wildlife in the ocean, on the land, and in the air. The private pool was tops and the home was clean, comfortable and had many spots to be with others, or be alone. Terrific and would go back in a heartbeat.
Marian -

Yes, this place is as good as the photos look. Million dollar views every day from every floor. We loved everything we could do without leaving the house - kayak, paddle board, pool, hot tub, corn hole, quoites, reading, sun or shade. Watch fish and stingrays from the doc. We didn’t bike but trails are nearby. This place has it all and great coffee shops/restaurants just a few minutes away.
We also appreciated that all of the light switches, remotes and power screens were labeled so you knew what each switch would do. Will be staying again!
Dan -

A wonderful experience!
Robyn -

Great home, nice location and spectacular views. Well stocked with cleaning and laundry to get you started. Plenty of towels. The bunk beds are queen size. Nicely maintained. Takes a minute to figure out the pool/spa settings - just follow the directions. Quiet for most of the week except for a bit of yard maintenance. Plenty of gear for fishing, kayaking, games, puzzles, books. Kids would probably have a great time. We took a couple of day trips into Key West. Had a few great meals in Marathon. Lots to do and close to Publix/Winn Dixie if you need supplies. We really enjoyed the week we stayed here!
Robert -

The house is exactly as described with all the amenties they list. The use of the kayaks, scuba gear, high quality pool noodles, fishing poles, bait bucket and having an ice machine next to the fridge for the pool was great! The pool furniture is high quality and the grill works great with an extra propane tank. We also used the outside fire pit with wood that was provided along with firestarters. We enjoyed the pool and spa and used the differant pool colors during our night swims, we took walks daily along the walking trail behind the airport.
We did not have a pool company stop by during the whole week which was nice because at other homes we have been surprised by maintenance workers. Although you are next to the airport inside the house you can barely hear the planes. Inside the house is stocked with all the necessities needed for your stay and they offer toilet paper, paper towels, laundry soap, dish soap, trash bags, ziplocks bags & hand soap along with a starter pack for your shower just like a hotel. The Vacasa company really caters to your vacation needs so you dont have to stress about getting to the store when you are tired from driving. We fished from the dock and Tarpon had moved in so we caught 3, 1 shark, a lobster and we saw the manatee hanging around the dock in the afternoons, several iguanas (Iggy) & our friend "Buddy" the egret. If you need good live bait visit Dee over at Keys Maritime and stop by Castaways over there for a drink and food. Best places on the island for local service.
This stay was by far one of our best stays in the Keys and we have been going for 10 years. Thank you to the owners for sharing and Vacasa for everything!

The pictures do not do justice for this property. The property is much BETTER than the pictures. Where do I start. The gulf views encompass about 180 degrees on the property and you can see the gulf from almost every spot in the house (even from the master bathroom which is on the road side of the house). The pool and hot tub were also great although I couldn’t figure out hot to get the hot tub water hotter. There are numerous places to sit and relax inside and outside. Ironically, we never sat in the huge family room and never turned on a TV. It was also an extremely private lot.
The wildlife / marine life here is fabulous. We saw numerous Iguana, sharks, crabs, and literally thousands of fish right next to the dock. They also had kayaks, paddle boards, bikes, games, etc.
I can’t wait to come back here again with other family members. This place is special and exquisite.
Eric -

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us, Eric. We are so glad to hear that you had a phenomenal getaway. We are sorry to hear that you had trouble operating the hot tub temperature, and encourage our guests to call our 24-hour Guest Services line to provide our local staff the opportunity to address any concerns. We hope to host you for another great stay in the future!

The views at this home were amazing! The house is very private and had everything we needed. We would absolutely vaca here again!
Amanda -

Beautiful house, perfect location for someone who is planning on boating for the week.
Dawn -

We absolutely loved our stay. The view from the property was incredible, and the number of sea creatures we spotted right from our balcony was unforgettable. We had access to a 2 person kayak, as well as a 1 person kayak and the waters around the property were perfect for using them.
Heather -

Gorgeous place, thoughtful design, lots of amenities, very spacious, many places to sit and enjoy different views, lots of outdoor activities. Good sun and shade options. We had very few bugs, but there are screens and fans if you need them. Launch for paddling is by ladder from the dock. Very private, but not secluded. Beautiful views.
Tom -

The most beautiful sunrise and sunsets! This place was amazing!
Heather -

Wonderful views of the ocean with a private cove teaming with wildlife. Truly enjoyed kayaking and paddle boarding. Beautiful sunsets and a convenient dock for a boat. The pool was a plus, great for an early morning swim and sunset dip. The home comes stocked with many amenities. Exceptional location! Driving to Key west was easy and a great day trip. Totally recommend a stay!
Antoun -

We stayed for one week at the house and absolutely loved it. The pool is fantastic and used the paddle boards and kayaks daily. Saw lots of wildlife and sealife. Make sure you have bug spray for the evenings. Can’t wait to return.
Lisa -

Beautiful location. Great views and a wonderful place to stay in Marathon. The house was great. Too bad the weather didn't cooperate, but you can't have it all I guess.
Ken -

This property is 5 star!!! The rooms and living space are spacious and super clean! The outdoor area is to die for and the pictures did not do it justice. We were able to dock a boat for our stay and the other toys provided by the property kept us busy all week. So much wildlife to experience. It was a true private paradise!!!! We will be back for sure!
Colleen -

The pictures don't do this house justice! It was amazing and we loved everything about it. The view from the covered patio every morning was wonderful. Having the paddle boards, kayaks and pool were awesome and found ourselves wanting to return to the house early as we enjoyed being there and the privacy we had. The daily visit from Franc the iguana was fun and really enjoyed all the wildlife around the house. Only downfall that was minor is be prepared to purchase extra toilet paper, garbage bags, paper towels, etc. Absolutely loved this place and definitely will be back!!
Tabatha -

Very roomy! Living room provided enough space for everyone so that we could spend quality time together at night. The views are spectacular here! So many fish swimming around the dock. Plenty to see and do here, from paddle boarding or snorkeling out back. Just a few minutes via the boat to the Vaca Cut and access to the Atlantic Ocean. We plan on making reservations again for next year!
