Welcome to Sandal Escape, a spacious 6-bedroom waterfront retreat where mornings begin on the dock, afternoons are made for the private pool and evenings bring everyone together under the Florida Keys sky.
Located in the heart of Marathon, this dog-friendly canal-front home is perfect for families, friends and boating groups looking for the complete Keys experience. Bring the boat, bring the dogs and settle in—your private pool, 75' of waterfront and generous dockage are waiting just outside your door.
WATERFRONT LIVING & PRIVATE POOL
Step into the backyard and vacation mode comes naturally. Cool off in the private saltwater pool, relax in the sunshine, fire up the grill or unwind beside the canal after a day exploring the Keys.
Boaters will love the 75' of waterfront and private dockage with convenient Atlantic access. Head out for a morning of fishing, cruise the surrounding waters or explore Marathon by boat. A bait freezer and ice machine add extra convenience for days on the water.
Prefer the beach? Sombrero and Coco Plum Beaches are approximately 3.8 miles away, and beautiful Bahia Honda State Park is approximately 14.9 miles from the home.
ROOM FOR EVERYONE
Inside, Sandal Escape provides plenty of space for your group to gather and recharge. Prepare meals in the well-equipped kitchen, relax together in the living room or retreat to one of the comfortable bedrooms after a day in the sun.
Five bedrooms are located within the main home. The sixth bedroom is a private first-floor apartment with its own exterior entrance, queen bed and en-suite bathroom. There is no interior access between this room and the main house, making it ideal for guests who appreciate extra privacy.

The house overall was great! The house was clean and accommodated all of us - 7 adults and 3 dogs comfortably. The beds were super comfortable and the bathrooms were clean. The flooring was a little sketchy in places and hope they replace a few of the floor boards. The pool was a great size but we did have a complication with the pool filtering and ended up having to tell the management company. The outdoor area was a little tight to eat outside or run for coverage in a rain storm. The seawall was great for two boats - 22ft and 25ft. The garage was a huge plus and we were able to store all our stuff out of the way, they had an outdoor fridge, AND an amazing ice machine. Parking was so great and we were able to have room for 3 trucks, 2 trailers, and a full-size SUV. Overall fantastic vacation and we will DEFINITELY be staying here again SOON!

The house was a great location in Marathon. The house had 6 bedrooms which had comfortable trundle beds and 3 king size beds. The exception was the guest house, which had a small full bed with a very thin mattress or cushion. That guest room was difficult to sleep in but it had a nice bathroom. The kitchen was a challenge for cooking. There is a large center island you dance around and the cooking tools are slim. It was a challenge but we made it work by running to the dollar store for some household items. The living room and dining room were great for a large group. The boating access was good but the canal was filthy with lots of weed and mud. There was a piling driver the first week which made access to the Atlantic difficult. The second week the piling driver left and made access much easier. The canal started to clear but was still very dirty and narrow. Parking was great and we were able to park several cars and trailers. We loved the ice machine and extra freezer in the garage. Thank you

So close to so much
Marathon is a great place to stay. There is so much to do and see we could have spent the whole week on Marathon. Key West was just an hour away so spend a few days down there or going out for the evening was just as easy. The house was located away from the main road enough that you didn't hear traffic or much noise which was great for relaxing evenings in in the pool.

Absolutely Highly Recommend
This house was perfect for our family of 12!! 5 bedrooms inside with house with a 6th in an apartment style. The home is on an inlet right off the ocean. The home was fully stocked with tons of towels, pans, dishes, everything you need. You just need to buy the food. We WILL be back! This is one of our favorites so far!

Family vacay week
We rented this house for our family vacation and the location was great. There were 8 of us ranging from age 20 to 87 years old. The arrangement of beds/rooms fit our needs and we also had to have a pool. We did not have a boat but we still wanted to have the canal for some fishing/wildlife watching. I asked everyone on the trip what they would rate the house and our average would be a 3.75 stars but that was not on option.
The house met our needs but overall the house seemed like it was lacking in details.
Good details: ice maker in garage, extra fridge/freezer in garage, luggage racks in closets, box fans in closets, great outdoor balcony upstairs.
Not good details: broken ceiling fan in bedroom, cold water for showers in the extra room at back of garage, limited kitchen supplies for cooking, no basic cleaning products to wipe off the counters etc, seemed like some diy repairs/projects that weren't the best quality (gaps in tile on balcony, loose screw in door locks, railing mounted too high on stairwell?, no shelf in showers (my 87 year old mom can't bend over to get shampoo/soap off the shower floor!)
These family vacations are a big splurge for us. Last year our house in Pensacola was much better so this one was a little disappointing.

Magical adventure
6 days before we were supposed to leave for Marathon, Fl with a group of 12 people, we were informed that the place we rented had a water leak and an infestation of cockroaches. Somehow, someone was looking out for us, and this Blue paradise home was available for rent. The entire week was perfect in every way. I am incredibly thankful and would highly recommend staying here

Family vacation
We had such a great time at your house! The house fit our family of 13 soo well!! The pool was perfect! We docked 2 boats out front and they fit great! The house had all the amenities we needed! Our only recommendation would be the pool house is really musty smelling. We went out and got an additional damp rid but could definitely benefit from a dehumidifier. We can’t wait to return!!

Wonderful home
Gorgeous property, perfect location for a large family. We were a party of 13 and everyone had a comfortable place to stay. The home was immaculate. Pool was perfect. Pictures online are nice, but the place is even better in person. We had a plumbing issue happen on New Year Eve and the property management company had someone out to us within an hour. Very responsive to requests and questions. We would stay there again. Oh, also perfect for boating, the canal leads directly to the Atlantic, great fishing and snorkeling all within a quick boat ride.

4 Star Reasons
Many pluses - king comfortable beds, central in Marathon, clean house, minimal furniture & knick knacks so no clutter, 6th bedroom great & next to the house. Slept our 11 people great. Also not far to Publix, Winn Dixie & Sandal Shop.
Needs - Large pots/pans including big stock pot, oven mitts, measuring cups. We cooked as its expensive to eat out in the Keys & we are all foodies. We had 11 people & we felt the kitchen was lacking for a group that size.

Friends Trip!
This was our first year changing our vacation destination & we were not disappointed. Blue Water Paradise was perfectly equipped for our group of eleven. The newly renovated home was stocked w kitchen gadgets, comfortable seating & sleeping, great parking & a beautiful outdoor pool set up. We brought a boat & the canal was easily accessible. Blue Water Paradise had plumbing issues during our stay, but itrip was fast acting w fixing it. Definitely a home fit for several guest & lots of fun. Thanks for the memories!
