1. Reynas Paradise
This is the vacation rental to book the weekend if you prefer to be a few steps away from the Key Colony Beach itself, which is one-fifth of a mile away, the same distance you’ll walk upon crossing the street from this property. The folks that owned this rental dubbed it as one of the prime spots to spend the Key Colony getaway. It is also a good starting point in case you’d like to walk towards the golfing meadows or the tennis park. In case you take your kids along, the playground is within reach. Cap off the day by having a hearty dinner in one of the fine-dining restaurants close by.
24.75 km (15.4 mi) from Bahia Honda State ParkAccommodates: 6
Minimum Nights: 7
Refund Policy : 100% refund if you cancel at least 60 days before check-in.

Captain Nick Too bad it isn't closer to ArizonaIt was very nice being able to just walk across the street to the playgroundHowever that is my only critiqueThere is a wonderful park within walking distance where you can go every night and watch the sunsetThe condo was in a perfect locationCleanliness:
the rental was clean and updatedThe entire house was super clean and the best part was the beds we're super comfortableThe weather was fantastic and the house & location was beautifulRead more reviewsAmenities & Room:
The was well stocked with everything you need in the kitchenIt would easily sleep 6 people with plenty of living space for allEverything is updated and comfortable inside the homeHas everything you need Easy access to the canal outbackThere was a sink and a refrigerator on the down stairs deck
2. Luxury at Doc's Holiday (from USD 301)
In case this rental’s name is familiar, you may have seen the film “Tombstone” where the hero Wyatt Earp is accompanied by his loyal friend Doc Holiday. The immediate name recall makes the week-long reservation worth it the moment you realize the level of luxury found in this unit. One of the two bedrooms found in this unit has a queen-size bed, ideal for couples. The other bedroom has bunk beds that are big enough for your kids. In case you have a pet to bring over for your stay, just notify the property owner to prop up the place with the pet-friendly facilities in case they are available. And while you’re at it, ask which Cabana Club membership privileges are also applicable with your stay.

WHat would change was the grillwas always an attraction We like to cook as well as eat out and found the kitchen well-organized and well-supplied with everything we neededEvery thing was new and worked perfectlyMy husband and I spent 2 weeks at "Doc's Holiday" and were very happy thereLocation:
In my opinion a Q-grill is NOT a grillIt was close to many fine restaurants and the Cabana Club with its heated poolBut still a good value for the area and Marathon is much more fun than Key LargoRead more reviewsAmenities & Room:
The kitchen was well equipped and had all we needed THe repairs that were done after Irma were impressiveReally wonderful condo - on the canal (in case you rent a kayak) and with a well-equipped kitchen Downside - The Cabana club is just OK and the living room is pretty crampedIn Doc's defense it did not seem like most people had a grill worth a darn Probasbly due to supply and demand from the stormRemember if you have a boat you wont be able to keep it at this dock you will have to make an arrangement else where What i loved was the open space great bathrooms and kitchen
3. Spacious waterfront home (from USD 359)
This is the rental that previous occupants come back to for a week to enjoy deep-sea fishing, reef fishing or both. Both can be enjoyed on different days. With this home being less than half a mile (0.8 km) from the Key Colony Beach Center, it is an ideal landmark or starting point to go around the Keys’ major attractions on foot. Renting in this property also entitles you to the member’s Cabana Club privileges from the private beach access to the golfing opportunities, whether you’ve been doing it professionally or just for kicks.

Home was very nice Small items with vacasa response timeIt appointed well and is a great layout and maintained wellWe also rent the home attached to it and it gives us the room we need for our large family Great home and great locationWe rented a boat for the week which we kept right at the dockHad everything we needed Everything was in working order Fantastic boat dock with quick access to the Atlantic and GulfLocation:
Sparkling clean spacious well equipped easy boat access to the ocean walk or short drive to Sunset Park or the Cabana ClubRead more reviewsAmenities & Room:
Had everything we wanted and needed Cabana club an added bonusI also wish the turnover service would do better cleaningI wish some work could be done on the dock to make leaving your boat there
4. Charming waterfront home (from USD 284)
This rental is one of the most spacious homes found on this list. This two-story waterfront home takes pride in its dining table big enough to accommodate up to six diners to go with the exquisite mini-bar. While pets and parties are not allowed in the property, the unit itself is a good starting point for most of the attractions around the area, including the Key Colony Beach Center found a few steps away. Much of its beauty is attributed to its tropical charm, an element that matches the sunny weather in the Keys.

We saw manatees from the dock while cleaning fishThe owners have been easy to work with and always wanted us to be happyWe look forward to more wonderful vacations in our home away from homeOverall a good place to stay A few minor issues that we emailed about on our last evening there and hoping they fix those issues prior to the next renters going inbut we did not let that bother usLocation:
great layout on lovely canal Easy walk to the club and right next to tennis and golfThe location is convenient to all that is offered in MarathonThe house is a duplex as most rentals here areLayout is decent for a 3BR 3 5 BA andOur stay each year has varied between 3 and 6 months in KCBCleanliness:
The two minor issues were that the stove takes special instructions (pans) to operate and the back sliding door does not lock VacasaRead more reviewsAmenities & Room:
Hopefully the advertised copy is corrected and kept up to date for changes that the owner may make from time to time The unit (BR fixtures/etc ) along with its supplies (linens/kitchen pot/pans...very well furnished lots of extra towels dishes and pots and pans Appliances were top notchThe only problems we had were tiny ants on the counter in the kitchenVery nice place with lots of space and plenty of bathroomsOur only suggestion would be updating dishes and silverware
5. Oceanside duplex (from USD 271)
This duplex is so close to the Key Colony Beach Center, it’s practically a stone’s throw away from the property. This is an oceanside property with a hot tub on the back patio for you to skinny dip into as you cap the day. And the hot tub is close to one of the three bedrooms found in the unit. With two of the three bedrooms equipped with a queen-size bed, having at least three friends to accompany you in a week-long stay in this unit means you’ll get to enjoy the Cabana Club membership and access to the beach and the golf course.

They gave directions and suggestions to help us get aroundThe home was more than accommodatingThe property manager was very helpful and gave great directions for arriving and departing proceduresWe fished everyday and the neighbor was as nice as he could bemy Mom and all of us were more than welcomed there and had a blastLocation:
The Key Colony was fantastic with great restaurants ice machines and storesThe whole property was very clean and well kept but the whole part that makes this property the best experience is really the community of Key ColonyThe Cabana Club was great as wellThe neighbors Tom and Sandy were very nice and accommodatingThe neighbors Sandy and Tom were more than anyone could expect and went up andCleanliness:

The HVAC kept the house very comfortable with 95 degree outside tempsWe had 3 adult couples with plenty of room forbut the kitchen had everything you can imagine you might needtied to the same dockall The furniture was very comfortable and of high quality
6. Relaxing home with a canal view (from USD 256)
The canal view has become a preferred feature for most renters dropping by Key Colony Beach, apart from renting properties with Cabana Club access. It helps them envision kayaking or rowing a canoe in the same canal close to the property. Pretty awesome viewing it too, with your spouse or partner during the sunset. As a rental property within walking distance from the Key Colony Beach Center, it is almost synonymous with gaining access to the Cabana Club facilities, thanks to the rental’s owner. This unit is also an excellent starting point for exploring the other Keys.

7. Waterfront home with beach access
Having a rental with a large dock is enough to address any concerns by renters with yachts. The space may be too large for a kayak but big enough in case you’re a canoeing enthusiast with a big boat to park. Makes sense with a property just a few steps away from the Key Colony Beach center itself. Not only is the dock big but the property is also large. Two out of three bedrooms found in this home are equipped with a full bathroom. The open-concept kitchen here has attracted tourists who would rather grill their dinner outdoors in the middle of the week-long stay.

8. Charming, spacious bungalow
Found close to the Key Colony Beach center itself, renters in this property realized how most attractions are within walking distance. It is one of the most spacious places to book the week with two out of three bedrooms found in this two-story house, having full bathrooms. The canal setting attracts canoe enthusiasts with its inviting ambiance. With the property’s owner being a member of the Cabana Club, whoever rents the week here gains access to the same member’s privileges from private beach access to time spent at the golf course for a few tees.

9. Luxurious paradise retreat
Within walking distance of the Key Colony Beach Center, this duplex is guaranteed to provide a luxurious paradise retreat not only for you but also for your pet. As one of the ideal properties to stay the week in the Middle Keys area, previous occupants booked to have access to the Cabana Club attractions as well, with its owner being a member with privileges. And those privileges apply to the renters as well. Pet facilities apply only for one pet and an additional USD 20 charge will apply if you have more than one pet.

10. Dog-friendly half duplex
This vacation rental is just a few steps from the Key Colony Beach center. The dock spans at 30 ft (9 meters), enough space to put your canoe or kayak in whenever you feel like hanging out by the house before sunset. Previous occupants book the week here to take advantage of the rental owner’s Cabana Club privileges. That will allow you to enjoy the Club’s beach access and opportunity to play in their golf course.

Nice overall We have rented many times and this is the nicestJust right for my son grandson and me for a week Everything was cleanLocation:

a bit more comfortable Cushioned chairs would be so much nicer than plastic stack chairs Beds were very comfortableSince outdoor space is so great it would be nice if the furniture wasCanal made it easy to place kayaks in canal Quiet and friendly neighborhood Kitchen nicely stocked to cook mealsIt's a walkable/bike able community
An exciting time at Key Colony Beach
The most common feature of these rentals is how the owners’ Cabana Club membership can be extended to the guests. Add the kayaking/canoeing activities and the fishing opportunities by the canal and you have a week packed with interesting things to do. It makes sense why most rentals have a seven-night minimum reservation rule in place. Now all that is left for you to do is check which rental suits your schedule best. Have fun in Key Colony.
