Summary:
Step into 'Turtle Nest,' your tranquil garden-view retreat by the sea. Freshly updated with a King suite and a Queen room, our 2BR/2BA condo is moments from the ocean and equipped with all home comforts. Dive into beach life with provided chairs and umbrellas and enjoy grilling under the stars. It's ideal for families or friends and the perfect backdrop for a serene, sun-kissed getaway.
The Space:
Nestled steps from the ocean's edge, 'Turtle Nest' is your serene escape in the heart of the Florida Keys. This 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo merges modern convenience with coastal living, having undergone a spring 2021 refresh. The master bedroom, with its king bed and en-suite, offers a private retreat, while the guest bedroom’s queen bed awaits others at your party.
In the heart of the condo, the kitchen—outfitted with newer appliances—is ready for your culinary ventures. New TVs ensure your leisure time is as relaxing as your beach days. Your private balcony overlooks a peaceful tropical garden, setting the stage for tranquil mornings and relaxing evenings.
We provide the essentials to start your stay, including linens, towels, and a starter set of toiletries. We also provide grills, beach chairs, umbrellas, and tennis rackets for outdoor fun. Do pack your favorite bug spray and swim shoes to fully enjoy the unique oceanfront and our cozy beach.
Located adjacent to Coco Plum City Beach, the condo offers lovely walks during low tide and is near Sombrero Beach—a public haven with amenities. Discover local charms from The Dolphin Research Center to snorkeling at Bahia Honda State Park, only 18 miles away.
For those seeking immersive nature experiences and tranquil blue waters rather than expansive sandy beaches, 'Turtle Nest' invites you to savor the Keys' authentic island life. Every sunset is a spectacle here, and the ocean is your playground.
Embrace a Florida Keys vacation that exceeds expectations by delighting in our unique landscape and the variety of adventures it offers, from history-rich Key West to underwater marvels just off our coast.
Guest Access:
Guests have the entire condo to themselves.
The Neighborhood:
Discover the charm of Marathon, Florida, nestled in the heart of the iconic Florida Keys. At our condo, you're positioned in a prime spot that offers both seclusion and easy access to local attractions. Marathon is a quaint tropical city comprised of several keys, and it's known for its laid-back atmosphere and friendly community.
Enjoy the ease of nearby amenities such as grocery stores, charming boutiques, and delightful dining options featuring fresh seafood from the surrounding waters. For the adventure-seekers, the island offers a host of activities like deep-sea fishing, snorkeling, and scuba diving in the vibrant coral reefs of the Atlantic.
Coco Plum Beach is just a stone's throw away, where you can soak up the sun on the sandy shore or take a stroll through the tranquil neighborhood. Marathon's Sombrero Beach is also within easy reach, offering a picturesque setting for picnics and beachside relaxation.
For a touch of nature, visit the Turtle Hospital to learn about local conservation efforts or explore the Crane Point Museum and Nature Center, a 63-acre hardwood hammock ideal for bird-watching and hiking.
With the mainland's convenience connected via the famous Seven Mile Bridge and the joys of island life, Coco Plum offers a serene escape with the spirit of the Keys at your doorstep.
Getting Around:
You have several convenient options for getting around and exploring the area:
By Car: The most flexible way to explore Marathon and the surrounding Keys is by car. The Overseas Highway, part of U.S. Route 1, connects the islands and is the main thoroughfare. Renting a car would be ideal for those looking to discover various attractions at their own pace.
Biking: For shorter distances, especially around the neighborhood and to nearby beaches like Coco Plum Beach, biking is a great option. The area is bike-friendly, with several paths and relatively flat terrain.
Public Transportation: Monroe County provides public bus services through the Lower Keys Shuttle, taking you from Marathon to other critical points in the Florida Keys.
Walking: For those who prefer to stay local, many of Marathon's attractions, restaurants, and shops can be accessed on foot, especially within the Coco Plum area.
Boating: If you're looking to explore the surrounding waters, marinas in the area offer boat rentals. A boat is a great way to experience the beautiful oceans, go fishing, or visit nearby reefs for snorkeling and diving.
Taxis and Rideshare: Taxis and rideshare services like Uber and Lyft operate in Marathon, providing an easy way to get around without a personal vehicle.
Shuttle Services: Some local businesses and attractions offer shuttle services for guests, which could be a convenient option depending on where you plan to go.
Remember that while the island is well-connected by the Overseas Highway, having your transportation will provide the most freedom to explore the natural beauty and attractions of the Florida Keys.
Other Things to Note:
Two Level 2 EV Chargers On Property
