  The owner was very gracious in sending information about the condo and giving her recommendations as to restaurants and sights in the area. I only stayed in the condo by myself, but it was very spacious and would have easily & comfortably fit a family. Everything was very clean and organized. The condo had an umbrella, chairs, coolers, and clean beach towels for the beach. (To wash beach towels, it is necessary to have plenty of quarters and purchase your own laundry detergent.) The condo also provided bath towels, extra blankets, and any kitchenware needed. The condo was a short driving distance away from everything on the island, which was quite convenient. The condo has two pools, which were lovely to sit by as well. I would definitely recommend this condo to my friends.

  Recommended for: Families with young children, girls getaway.

  Owner response: Sorry, lots of renters lately, must have run out of laundry detergent. We usually provide that and will get right on restocking that!

  We went to Marco Island for the first time last week and it was a wonderful vacation! The condo is located in a great spot. You have a view of the bay and a couple of marinas with boats coming and going. The Dolphin Tiki right on the complex is a wonderful restaurant. Every seat has a view of the water. The food was delicious and the people were very accommodating and nice. There are also a number of other restaurants within walking distance or a short drive away. There is also a pool in the complex if you don't want to take the short ride to South Beach where you can see dolphins swimming and fish jumping out of the water. The condo was very clean and well-maintained. The owners provided beach towels, beach chairs, all the kitchenware you might need to cook or eat indoors, just to name a few things. They also gave us a list of places we might want to visit and were very helpful in answering any questions we had. I definitely recommend this place to anybody who wants a fun and relaxing vacation in a beautiful spot.

  I have been fortunate enough to visit Marco Island twice in the past few years and both times, stayed at Jennifer and Joe's condo. There is a reason for that! Jennifer is absolutely wonderful to deal with and the condo is perfect! No need to worry about beach towels, chairs, kitchen utencils...pretty much anything. Jennifer ensures your stay is comfortable and stress free. The condo was clean and neat and perfectly located. Love the Dolphin Tiki bar! The property is so well maintained and you can venture out or sit and relax by 1 of the 2 pools. It's a short drive to the beach, short walk or drive to shops and restaurants. You have to eat at the Crazy Flamingo and Cocomos! The island is beautiful with breathtaking sunsets. I would recommend Marco Island and this condo to anyone! Can't wait to go back!

  My husband and I stayed in this wonderful condo during our recent April, 2011 vacation. We had never had the opportunity to spend time in Marco Island before, but this vacation has proven to us that Marco is where it's at! I kept singing "Almost Heaven, Marco Island"! We lucked out with perfect weather and a wonderful condo to boot! Angler's Cove is in a very convenient spot on the Island. Although you do have to drive to the public beaches - and we did do that on a couple of occasions, the pool is FANTASTIC! We spent most of our time sunbathing and swimming right there on the property. The addition of the "Dolphin Tiki Bar" right next to the pool adds to a wonderful day on Marco! The condo is well equipped, very comfortable and as clean a whistle. The owners are so hospitable, they even supply sun block and beach chairs and towels - all you need is your bathing suit! Although we ate out most of the time, we did cook supper at home a few times and found the kitchen to be well stocked and easy to use. We thoroughly enjoyed the lanai that overlooks the beautiful gardens that are so well taken care of - in fact the whole property is impeccable! All and all, this condo is in one of the best spots on the property and the property is in one fo the best spots on the Island! It's in close proximity to many restaurants and bars which have some of the best happy hours we've ever encountered! Can't wait to go back next year!

  The condo we rented was very nice, it had everything you could ever need for your stay. Jennifer didn't miss a thing! The complex had two real nice pools and hot tubs. The only thing you would need in the condo is your clothes and swim suits!! We really enjoyed our Month down in Florida. I will rent from Jennifer and Joe West again. Everything is right by the condo. On wednesday's a farmer's market. All the fresh baked bread, fruit and vegetables you could want! There is something for everyone on Marco Island!! If you want a great place to stay contact Jennifer and Joe West `, you won't be sorry!!! The Wardens

  My husband and I spent the past two Januarys in Jennifer and Joe's condo. The first time I walked through the door, I felt "at home". We did a lot of cooking at the condo which had everything we needed from toaster, coffee maker, utensils, an array of glassware for beverages, as well as, all beach towels, chairs, equipment, extra bedding, hair dryer. We did not have to buy anything, except our food. (Some friends who stayed in a different condo had to go shopping for basic equipment when they arrived at their condo.) Speaking of food, the tiki bar had great affordable food and beverage options for those nights we didn't feel like cooking and it was only a two minute walk from the front door. We greatly enjoyed watching the pelicans, egrets, and other birds from the dock and waking up in the morning to the sound of birds. We also were able to board an boat ecotour at the marina right next door which I would highly recommend. We loved that Publix, shops, restaurants, post office, and bank were within easy walking distance for us 60 + year olds so, many days, we didn't even use our car. Finally, Jennifer and Joe are very accommodating and responsive to any of our needs. They really do want you to have a good time and even worry about the weather for you! We had another great time this year and can't wait to return to Marco!

  Owner response: We are thrilled that you had such a wonderful time. We want our renters to feel like family and have everything they need for their stay.. It is a goal of ours. We appreciate the opportunity to have you stay in our little piece of paradise. We would be so pleased if you would consider us again. We love to have repeat renters and add them to our "Marco family". Thanks so much.

  I just moved to Florida about 2 years ago and have been scouting around for a place where my girlfriend and I could just take off to for a few days just for some peace and quiet. Well ladies and gentlemen I found that place. I saw this rental for this condo and called the owner about renting it over the Memorial Day Weekend. It was a blessing that it was available. I spoke with Joe and Jen and we came to an agreement, one that I was so pleased with. The cost was very reasonable and the area was just great. The condo itself was perfect for two people. Although we really didn't use all the amenities that this condo offered because we had a short stay and went out for our nourishments, we still enjoyed our nights there. The beds were very comfortable, great shower situation, great views and the pool and bar areas were very sufficient. The beach was just a short drive away, the parking was limited but we found no waiting lines and received a space within minutes. The island in itself is beautiful with a great variety of night life entertainments. The restaurants were fantastic with again a wide variety to choose from. Jen was so very kind to fill us in on where to eat and all the great places to visit. I cannot say enough about the time my girlfriend and I spent there. (Yes it went by very fast) but I will be calling soon enough for another stay. All in all the condo was great, the owners Jen and Joe were very pleasant, easy to deal with, polite and caring for all our needs. Jen and Joe thank you so much for allowing us to stay at your place and you will be hearing from us again in the near future for yet another R&R weekend. Both of you have been so kind. Jen and Joe loved the comedy show, the Esplinade and Snookers. Great choices, and again thank you. Renters, A+ for sure.

  The prospect of facing a long cold winter did not excite me, what did was a month on Marco Island. We found the cleanest, neatest condo right near the beaches, and within walking distance to shopping, some incredible restaurants. On site are two wonderful pools, someone monitored the temperature each day so the water was always perfect. We met people of all ages including a couple of kids to play with my Grandson during school vacation week. People came from all over the Island just to enjoy Prime Rib and not to mention the cool drinks at the Tiki Lounge. We found plenty to do, starting with a clean car( free water hookup) we visited Key West, the Zoo, Edison’s Home, Movies, Art Galleries and Craft Shops, Everglades, Parks and Reserves(awesome wildlife) also there is a great little theatre featuring local actors, wonderful shopping and if you are lucky enough a world known shell show March 13-15 is just across the street. Marco is south enough so the water and the weather were warm enough for us to swim in either the ocean or the pool most every day. Believe it or not we did find time to enjoy many a meal and good book on the Lanai or just relax in the cool living room. We are looking forward to 2009 and seeing the friends we made, some have been coming here for years.
