Summary:

"We were welcomed by a manatee in the channel when we arrived." That's what guests keep saying about 61 Sombrero, our dog-friendly single-level home at the end of a quiet Marathon canal, a five-minute walk from Sombrero Beach. Cast off from the dock at sunrise, watch manatees drift past over coffee, then bike to Publix or back to the sand. Two kings, a queen on the quiet side, and a daybed-and-trundle room for the kids. Heated saltwater pool, gas grill, fenced yard, no pet fees.



The Space:

61 Sombrero is a single-level Marathon home at the end of a quiet residential canal, a five-minute walk from Sombrero Beach. The whole back of the house opens through sliders to a fenced yard, a heated saltwater pool, and a private dock at the seawall where manatees drift past on most mornings.



The layout puts every bedroom on the main floor and lets two couples share the place across opposite ends of the house. Two kings, a queen on the quiet side, and a daybed-and-trundle room behind the kitchen for kids on early bedtimes.

Coffee on the dock at sunrise, a lap around the canal on the inflatable SUP before breakfast, the beach in a five-minute walk, and the cruisers at the gate for the ride to Publix.



The pool sits a few steps from the sliders for the cool-off between beach trips, the propane grill anchors the seawall pad for sunset cooking, and the dock has a swim ladder and electric for trolling motors for guests who bring a boat.
