Just completed a 4 month stay. Awesome experience. Great staff willing to help anytime. Park kept dang near spotless. Been coming here for five years now and it gets better every year. New furniture in Marina and it’s totally upgraded with fans, lights, new chairs and tables. One of the best sunsets in Marathon. Cant wait to come back next June.

We rented one of the little house for a week with the kids. Location is great, quiet place with a nice small pool. Laundry available on site but can get expensive. Loads are $2 and another $2 for the dryer. People working at the front desk are very nice and helpful. Only downside is the cleanliness. The place was VERY dirty. The dishes in the cabinets were dirty. The floor was sticky and I am pretty sure never been mopped. Hair everywhere. We even found old dirty socks and toys under beds and couches. Too bad because the location is great and the prices are good for the area.

My family has been coming to Sun since it was a family owned park. I was told new management took over and it shows. The bath houses were always down due to plumbing issues but were spotless when opened. Devin was always pleasant and accommodating. The housekeeper Tony always had a smile and asked if we needed anything everyday (the rooms were kept very clean). The girl at the front desk needs some trainings on how to be pleasant and polite, everytime we need something like change for the laundry she would roll her eyes and the office was always cluttered or closed. I was speaking with some other guests and they had the same issues with the front desk. Probably going to stay at Jolly Rodger next year. Front desk lady needs some trainings on how to talk to guests if she doesnt like dealing with people she may be in the wrong industry.

Stayed here for years when it was pelican resort. Sun bought it out and prices keep increasing in policy changing big corporations destroy everything that's good. Now to reserve a place I had to put half down, over $800, and after 14 days if something happens and you need to cancel you lose the entire deposit over $800! That's outrageous. Heartbreaking that my favorite place to stay I don't think we're going to stay anymore. Because of this corporation. Next door is still family owned and has much better policies and prices. Keep the corporations out of the keys. 💔

Very nice location! A few issues in the tiny house. Sink in kitchen barely ran. Light in bathroom went out and couldn't be fixed. Dresser drawer broke. But place is a little dated. For the price as things are expensive in the Keys I can deal with these issues. Devin, maintenance worker, was great. Always there if we needed him. Very respectful. He d make it in manager.

We stayed here in a 43ft fifth wheel and have a nice, spacious site. The seasonal campers we met were amazing, kind, fun people. The staff here are accommodating, kind, and hard working. Special shout out to the activities coordinator, Amanda! Wish she was here all the time, not just for the winter months. Mallory in the office helped us tremendously when our reservation had to be moved after we were in an accident headed down here. The waterfront isn’t anything special - some chairs out along the waters edge to watch sunset, a tiki hut with a table, a game of cornhole. It tends to get grassy and our kids only dared to attempt a swim one time for all of 10 minutes … the pool is a better, safer option and evidently they’re getting a new one put in next month (April 2025). No playground or anything but our kids have made do rollerblading and biking around, drawing with chalk, and finding coconuts to open up. The clubhouse is fun when things are going on but not much besides ping pong when activities aren’t happening. The laundry room has 6 machines that are $2 each and bathhouse is nice. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but would love more for the kids - it’s just not the target demographic here. Our kids had a lemonade stand and one of the guests posted on the group Facebook and they sold out within 45 minutes - tons of people came out to support! The people are the best part.

We have been full time RV-ing around the country for 4 years and have been to some great RV parks. But this place has been absolutely THE BEST. It has an incredible vibe, super friendly people, & fun events (thanks Amanda & Will!!!). Everyone gets together by the water's edge for the sunsets and to exchanges stories from the day.

We had another outstanding trip to Sun Marathon! While the park is great, the people that work there make it even greater! Kudos to Amanda & Will for the extensive calendar of activities; to Devon, Anthony & Tommy for keeping the park running smooth! We are looking forward to some much needed upgrades to the bath house and laundry area. We will see you in 10 months!

We decided to come down and rent an RV for Thanksgiving. It was such a wonderful surprise that sun outdoors had a whole big Thanksgiving event. Their event planner was so wonderful, open, and friendly. The catered Thanksgiving dinner tasted like grandma made it. It felt live home. Thank you! The only improvement the park could use is a little more room to walk our pup. The other thing would be enforcing picking up poop from the dog area. Beautiful view of the water. Nice boat ramp & slips. We would stay again.

What a wonderful place to spend some time away from the winter cold. Want to give a big shout out to Jim and Christine for really making our stay comfortable we appreciate all the extra effort.. can't wait to return next year ❤️

Very close proximity to the bay side water. Lots of close attractions. Well kept, clean and modern (wonderful bathrooms)!. But the friendliness and competence of the staff, made this stay extra inviting. Out of every place we stayed during our vacation, this location was the most welcoming and enjoyable and it's all do to the professionalism of the office manager Chris. She is a great asset to this company and I hope they see what great qualities she brings to this property and reward her for it. It's one thing to do just do your job, it's another entire thing, when you do your job with excellence.

I recently went to Sun Outdoors Marathon for my birthday weekend. We had the most AMAZING time. The front host Christine Gallant was wonderful, her and her husband were sweethearts and very helpful. We are planning another trip already !!!

We had an awesome stay here!! They have great employees that made our time there just that much better. Christine, Jimmy and Becky are so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. Their full timers there were great to hangout with. Can’t wait to get back to this resort!

Beautiful, clean and quiet RV resort. Met lots of friendly people and I can’t say enough about Jimmy and Chris. Both went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. We’ll be back for sure!
