Our refrigerator smelled RANCID!! Like severely rotten seafood. The smell of our room was bad, but borderline tollerable. There were bad stains around the A/C unit and seemed to have a ammonia type smell. Aside from that, our room was extremely clean & nice. Due to the nasty smells, I don't think we'd ever stay here again.

Staff was awesome. Room was good; seemed to be under construction a bit, but that did not hinder the good experience. Overall clean, safe and plenty of space for a fam of 4. We will definitely return on our next trip to the Marathon area.

This little motel is quiet, clean and safe. We stayed in the motel part which had a kitchen area. There are also other accommodation options available like a floating houseboat, cabins and RV spots. There’s a dock to fish from, a pool, pickle ball court, kayaks and bicycles for use. They also have BBQ grills available. There’s about a 5 mile walking path within about a 1/4 of a mile of the property, also state parks, and many activities close by. We loved the chill atmosphere. The Bonefish is highly recommended.

Clean rooms. Amazing staff. Great amenities such as kayaks, bicycles, boat ramp and dock slips. Pool was clean and inviting. Only small iguanas and curly tailed lizards. No wildlife that was obnoxious. Kitchen was stocked perfect for the two of us
