Marathon get away
Property was very neat and clean, there were clear instructions on the fridge regarding garbage, recycle bins and fish cleaning and storage, this was helpful. The home was so cutely decorated it really gave me that beach vacation vibe. The location was perfect, close enough to walk or bike to many local restaurants or stores. Overall, I would go back to stay again!

wonderful
The reviews were spot on! This home is not only beautiful but also impeccably maintained. It has everything you could possibly need for a wonderful stay. Enjoy stunning views of the open water, a charming Tiki hut, and a heated pool. It's within walking distance to the 7 Mile Grill, Porky's, and Sea Dog Charters, which we took out on Christmas Day. Plus, the fishing from the dock is fantastic! Hope to book again soon!.

Beautiful property
This was our 7th time staying in this same home. That enough, should say how much we love it. The home and view is gorgeous, and stocked so well as we cooked most of our meals in and spent most the time on the boat that we rented or on the dock and in the pool. Communication with Paulo was prompt and he was very quick to fix a small plumbing issue we had. I was so excited to see that a downstairs bathroom was added, which I had mentioned about in the past. Pool was a little cold at times. Did not feel the need to pay for heating though as its 90 degree Florida. We will be back next year!!!

Amazing Week In Paradise
We have stayed in the keys several times… this is by far the nicest property we’ve rented. The location is perfect… walking distance to lots of restaurants and activities. Walking distance to the seven mile bridge… the home has gorgeous views. My husband and I had a fabulous vacation, and perfect weather. We were able to hang out and relax, but also enjoyed all the fun the keys have to offer. Our only regret is not staying longer! We will be back next year for sure!

AMAZING!!!
Do not hesitate to book this property! It has everything you could want! Very well appointed just like you are at home. Super clean! Easy walk to some great restaurants and bars. Perfect outdoor space to hang out, cook out, sunbath, dip in pool. Manatees swam right in front of dock. We would book this place again without a doubt. Paulo was very nice and responsive. We had an incredible vacation there.

Great Family Getaway
This property was a beautiful house and location on water. My husband, me and 2 teenage kids stayed here last week. We saw manatees and dolphin from dock. We fished every day from dock, caught smaller fish and an eel (yikes) and also rented a boat from Pipps. This was our 4th trip to Marathon, different location. We walked to breakfast most morning's which was nice.

Very nice!
Very clean, well maintained. Attention to detail everywhere. The kitchen is well stocked. We found everything we needed. Fantastic views. We enjoyed watching the birds and the boats, reading in the outdoor spaces, and checking to see what types of fish are in the water. A couple restaurants are in walking distance, which was nice to leave the car behind for a change. Many thanks for providing such a wonderful place - we had a great stay!

Very well maintained, clean and comfortable rental. Well stocked kitchen and nice new outdoor area and splash pool. So many pluses but on the downside, the outdoor security cameras (there are LOTS of them) made some in our group uncomfortable.

Another amazing stay!
This is the second time we have stayed here and it was just as great as the last. The house and grounds are always so clean and well kept. We have rented a boat both times and docked it out back. It is such a convenient place to boat from and the dock is easy to get in and out of. Thanks again for such a wonderful stay!

Anniversary trip w/bonus of no kids!
My husband and I were lucky enough to get away for our anniversary this year w/the added bonus of no kids! Although it was one of many trips to the Keys, its was our first to Marathon and to stay at Copacabana. We just loved it! The Oliveiras have a lovely beach home. It checks all the boxes and more for a great couples vacation. Comfortable bedrooms, two bathrooms, well stocked kicthen, laundry, plenty of parking, and an amazing outdoor space. Outdoors is where we spent most of our time. Fishing from the dock, lounging by the dip pool, enjoying the view with a book, and each others company. Having a bite to eat under the gazebo with the outdoor kitchen and grill. Even chatting w/the neighbors! Paulo is very responsive, answered every question, and attended to any need we had. We would without a doubt, plan another trip down to Copacabana! Many thanks also to the Oliveiras, for wishing my husband and I a happy anniversary!

Amazing vacation home with all the amenities. The house is immaculate and has everything you’d ever need during your vacation. The best is looking at the stars from the pool at night.
