Best kept secret in Marathon!

Great family vacation getaway. Super quiet and relaxing. Friendly staff and excellent food at the restaurant. If you’re looking to relax perfect destination. Sunrise views are spectacular.

Peaceful and Beautiful!

The views and location are unbeatable! The beach and pool are beautiful, the rooms are huge and clean. It’s a nice quiet relaxing place to stay, and all the activities on the Keys are an easy drive from here. The breakfast is delicious!

Bed Bugs!

Decent place right on a beach. Breakfast was good. I am pretty sure the room had bedbugs, hope we didn't bring any back! The door did not lock good, glad it is in a location that I didn't have to worry about theft. Would come back if the bed bugs were taken care of.

Nice property, needs TLC & better vibe from staff

The room was very clean and comfortable. The property is right on the beach with a great view. The property does seem to need some TLC. For instance, I reported that the door had to be slammed multiple times for the latch to catch (so anyone couldn't just enter the room). Also the thermostat needs to be replaced since it was nearly impossible to get to the screen needed to adjust the temp. I reported this 2x and both people at the desk did not seem to be too attentive to actually reporting it and getting it fixed. Given that there is a $40 per day resort fee that includes breakfast, it would have been nice if the waiter could have been a little friendlier. He was pretty cranky to all guests.

The view is one you will not forget!

I'll be honest- I hesitate to even give a review because I want to keep this treasure a secret for when we go back, but the staff and owner deserve an amazing review. This was hands down the coolest place we (as a family of 3- including a 13 yr old) could've stayed. The property is directly on the ocean and it's an absolutely stunning view. The palms bend right over the lounge chairs and pool making for gorgeous photo opportunities. The resort offers clear bottom kayaks and paddle boards for you to enjoy and even has cornhole boards ready to play. It's a perfect location to snorkel or fish. The rooms are a little outdated, but clean, and who goes on vacation to stay in the room anyway... Staff was very accomodating and the breakfast was yummy!

Enjoyed our stay.

Enjoyed our stay at The Rainbow Bend. It’s an older place that has some areas for improvement but the property is great. The restaurant on premises didn’t look like much but after doing some research it sounds like it’s one of the better places in the keys to get some really good food.
Carina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We loved this property. It was beautiful. Our room had ample space and beds were comfortable. It was a plus that it was pet friendly. The bench facing the water and moon was breathtaking and breakfast with that view felt dreamy.
Vanessa, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We really enjoyed our stay at Rainbow Bend. The staff was very helpful & friendly, complimentary breakfast was delicious, loved the pool & beach & all other services. We would have liked to have had an outdoor grill for barbecuing.
