When you're ready to venture out, grab the provided beach chairs, cart, umbrella, cooler, and towels and stroll just minutes to the sandy shore. After a day spent shelling, swimming, or exploring the island, return to the outdoor seating area and unwind around the fire pit as the evening sky begins to glow. Or, head over the island’s best restaurants/bars a few blocks down the street. Inside, the open floor plan creates a warm and airy gathering space.

Wonderful house, close to everything.
He had a last minute trip planned to meet up with the rest of my family and had no option to board my dog as it was all booked up. Rented the house, pet friendly and we had a wonderful time.Only suggestion I would make is to replace the mattress on the top bunk bed as you can feel all the metal bars beneath it and the kids wouldn’t sleep on it to had to use up the third bedroom but other than that, the unit is perfect.

Weekend at the beach
I stayed to visit friends in town from Germany. The rental was in a perfect location to meet up with them as well as my morning shelling at the beach which was just a short walk away. The house was clean and comfortable, the only thing missing was a pool.

Just perfect
This home was absolutely perfect in every way. It was close to beach so we walked and took advantage of the wagon, chairs, cooler and beach towels. This gem has everything you need for a fun vacation. We used the bikes and rode to the Marco Island museum, very informative. South Beach at sunset and Tigertail Beach for husband to fish and us to walk. We went on a dolphin and shelling tour out of Goodling which enjoyed. Our first time at Marco and enjoyed everything but esp our stay in this well kept home.

Family trip
Great location and easy 10 minute walk to the beach. The house had 3 beach chairs, coolers, beach towels and a cart which made walking to the beach easy. Only recommendation is for the house to have a skillet and a couple more cooking bowls. We like to do breakfast on our own and the single pan made it more challenging.

Easy walk to beach
I was here for a work conference and hotels were sold out so really was not here very much. It’s a little beach funky (a door to backyard right next to the toilet…like, that’s weird ) but comfortable. Beds comfortable. Need better pillows. Shower was decent.

Nice get away
The house is in a nice neighborhood. I couldn't turn on the TV but I am not tech savy. Clean and neat. It would have been nice to have a hair dryer.
