Excellent vacation

One of the best places we have stayed in KCB. We stayed at Flamingo Nook for 2 weeks. The place is beautiful! The pool, the screened porch and the entire home is beautiful! You can tell it has recently been refurbished and that the owners take pride in their home! We have already booked for 2026! Thanks for a great vacation!

Great place! We rent here twice annually and could not be more pleased!!!! We always leave the place just as we found it and would suggest that considering the price for cleaning...... The Maids should mop the floor, particularly under the beds more often...Other than that is great...

Flamingo Nook

We booked our stay after combing through dozens of places. This little gem was just what we needed. It was clean, fully equipped, has an adorable pool and a place to dock our boat. It’s also located in the middle of Marathon so it is close to everything. Buyer beware—it says it sleeps 4 people but that you can make special requests for extra guests. However, this property really only means 4 people. No exceptions.

Loved our stay at the Flamingo Nook!

Everything was as described. I have rented in Key Colony multiple times and loved the location, the property, and the canal. Rental was clean and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of pots and pans. Had a little bit of an issue with the hospitality app that was used for check-in/communication not showing new messages but that is due to the app and/or my phone and I was very happy my call was answered on the weekend to help us check-in. Would definitely stay again!

Perfect!

The pictures do not do this place justice. The water is seriously out your door. We had a couple of concerns based off the reviews. The kitchen sink was replaced. Grill was brand new and had 2 new tanks of gas. Pool was clean. Great central location for day trips to Key West. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family of 4 vacationed in Marathon to get some fishing and lobstering before school started. Flamingo nook was exactly what we were looking for. We wanted something on the water where we could dock our boat and we wanted a pool to be able to cool down in. We were able to keep the trailer on the property which was great as well. We had plenty of outdoor storage for all of our fishing and scuba equipment. The dock was newer and had a fish cleaning station which we used a lot. The property location makes it very convenient to enter the Gulf of America or the Atlantic. Easy in, easy out. The neighborhood was peaceful and felt like out personal property was safe and secure. We noticed police cars driving around the neighborhood multiple times during our stay. There was a strong police presence, even patrolling the canals. The house was perfect for me, my wife and two teen age sons. We were fortunate to be able to catch multiple mahi, yellowtail (as well as others) and lobster on our trip. We used the outside grill several times as well and it was clean and in good working order. The screened outside patio was great to escape to when we needed to. The inside of the house was modern and beachy and very cozy. It was nice to be able to do a few loads of laundry while we were down there. The pool was clean and chilled to a perfect temperature to escape the afternoon heat. It was just a great overall property and experience. The owners were very easy to communicate

Absolutely Stunning!

When I booked this property, I was already hooked on the amenities. But then I got there it was more than I could ask for! My family (boys 10 and 7 + husband (I mean really 3 kids! Ha) and I enjoyed seeing the manatees, pelicans, herons, yellowtail snapper, mutten snapper, etc off the dock. To top it off swimming after a long day of being on the boat. It was amazing! We will be booking here again.

Flamingo Nook Review - 27April2024

My wife and I along with another couple had a great week at Flamingo Nook and the KCB-Marathon area. Flamingo Nook was perfect for four people. Kitchen was well equipped, beds slept well, plenty of towels including beach towels. The staff at Key Colony Beach Realty were excellent to work with. Thanks to Casey and Tyler for answering my questions and communicating when we could get in, etc. The Cabana Club was a nice plus! Large pool, nice little beach, good bar for an adult beverage and excellent staff. The pool at Flamingo Nook was a great plus. It was nice to cool off and relax after an afternoon on the boat. Dockage is good with the tide slide mooring setup. Dock was big enough for a 21-foot boat with no problem. All in all, it was a very good vacation. We would stay at Flamingo Nook again.

The screened in porch is great as well as the backyard on the canal which boasts a pool, lounge chairs, adirondack chairs and a tiki umbrella. There is always a place to sit with some shade. In addition, there is a putting green, gas grill. There are even bicycles that guests can use. I can't say enough good things about this place. I will definitely stay here again.

Outdoors, there is a pool, outdoor furniture and a screened area that is extremely comfortable. in addition to a putting green, bikes are also provided.

Very nice place ...

Please read ALL of review and not just concerns/cons. Thank you.1). Cons/issues: a). Pool was not cleaned (maintenance schedule(?) or weather timing(?) with a small metal spring and a metal angle bracket found in pool to which I removed, and the pool pump had known issues that were needing to be fixed (LOUD). b). First bathroom sink drain was draining slow and toilet ball valve slow-leaked. c). In the hall up on the wall near the first bathroom was some bare wiring (missing smoke alarm?). The next day after reporting the pool issue, maintenance came in and wired/connected the emergency light to the bare wire. d). After pool pump was fixed, pool heater no longer worked. e). After pool pump was fixed, outside lights along the palm trees and the mini-putt no longer worked.2). Pros: a). Communication with Chandler was friendly and prompt. b). Pool pump was fixed. c). Bathroom concerns were fixed promptly. d). Nice place.If pool heater and outdoor/outside lights are fixed, my wife and I would not hesitate to stay again.
