Inn

7050 Overseas Hwy, Marathon, FL

Operating as a tranquil, retro-inspired waterfront escape in the heart of Marathon since the 1960s, this independent resort perfectly captures classic, old-school Florida Keys comfort. Situated on the bayside of US-1 with inner-coastal access to the Gulf of Mexico, the bright, affordable property caters heavily to boaters and anglers with 12 dedicated dock slips, a private boat ramp, and a fish cleaning station. The grounds feature flowing white drapes, a freshwater swimming pool, a classic dockside Tiki Hut for lounging, and well-appointed rooms equipped with convenient kitchenettes. Guests enjoy a laid-back, community-centric island sanctuary just minutes from pristine local reefs and sandy beaches.
