“The resort strikes me as a relaxing beachfront escape in Marathon, with its own stretch of swimmable sand. I particularly like that it has multiple pools, including a saltwater option overlooking the beach, and Havana Jack's Oceanside Restaurant adds to the appeal. From what I gather, it's a solid choice for both couples seeking a quiet getaway and families looking for kid-friendly activities.”
