Fodor's Expert Review Tranquility Bay
MM 48.5 BS, 2600 Overseas Hwy., Marathon, Florida, 33050, USA Fodor's Choice
Ralph Lauren could have designed the rooms at this stylish, luxurious resort on a nice beach. The 87 two- and three-bedroom town houses have gingerbread trim, white-picket fences, and open-floor-plan interiors decorated in trendy cottage style. The picture-perfect theme continues with the palm-fringed pool and the sandy beach edged with a ribbon of blue bay (and echoed in the blue-and-white stripes of the poolside umbrellas). Guests look like models on a photo shoot: attractive young families enjoying themselves at the sunny decks, casual outdoor bar, or elegant restaurant. Single-level guest rooms are a new addition, ideal for couples.
