Traveling to the Florida Keys With a Baby or Toddler: What to Rent Instead of Pack

Flying with a baby or toddler means a car seat, a stroller, a diaper bag and the kids themselves, and that's before anyone packs a crib or high chair. The good news: you don't have to bring it all. In Marathon you can rent clean, ready-to-use baby gear and have it waiting at your vacation rental.

The baby gear checklist

Here's what families rent most often:

  • Sleep: a Pack n Play or travel crib with a mattress, a bedside bassinet, a toddler air mattress, a sound machine and a video monitor.
  • Meals: a high chair or booster seat, a bottle warmer and a feeding set.
  • Getting around: a stroller, a stroller wagon, or a car seat for the drive down.
  • Safety: baby gates for stairs and pool doors.
  • Bath and potty: a baby bathtub, a children's potty and a step stool.
  • Play: toy baskets, books, a play mat and a ball pit to keep little ones busy indoors.

Don't forget the beach

Babies and toddlers love the beach. Make it easy with beach toys and sand toys, a kid-sized beach chair, a beach umbrella for shade and a foldable wagon to haul it all. Heading out on the water? We also rent kids' life jackets in toddler and youth sizes.

Save with a package

Packages bundle the essentials for less than renting each item on its own. Our Baby Gear Package, Eat, Sleep, Play and Toddler Sleep n Play sets cover sleep, meals and play in one booking.

Tips for a smooth trip

  • Book early for holidays and spring break, when cribs and strollers go fast.
  • Schedule delivery for your arrival day so everything is ready when you walk in.
  • Tell us the details in your order notes, like your child's age and weight, and we'll bring the right fit.
