This was the perfect house for our family vacation. The house is absolutely beautiful! We all loved the screened in lanai, pool and hot tub. There were plenty of lounge chairs and the table for 6 by the pool was perfect. The electric grill worked great and everyone enjoyed eating by the pool. The bedrooms, each with a private bath, worked great for us. The kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of room for the 3 cooks. The living room furniture was very comfortable and provided enough seating for all of us to watch movies or just talk. The pool, lanai and yard were well maintained and the house was spotless! We would definitely love to come back and would highly recommend this beautiful house.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, adventure seekers.

The time we spent at this house was truly amazing. There was plenty of room for the six of us. It was beautifully decorated and every room was spectacular. The pool and hot tub were perfect for our kids. They really enjoyed fishing off the dock, and even caught seven fish. There were plenty of towels and beach towels provided for us all. I loved having mackel park located near us. Thank you for our stay, and it was by far the best house we have stayed in!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our stays at this lovely home. It is tastefully decorated with numerous amenities including the recent additions of new carpeting and high efficiency washer and dryer. The house is large and lets every one do what they would like to do. It’s great having 3 king beds. We all love the pool and spa - what a reprieve from Northern Winter. There is a nice park across the street to either walk or enjoy with the bicycles in the garage. We all attended a concert there, too. We enjoy the canal behind the house; we’ve even seen manatee in there. Marco Island is great place to visit with wonderful restaurants and fun things to do - we look forward to returning next year!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, girls getaway.

In general, we had a good time and the house served us well. Marco Island was a bit of a disappointment because there are only three public beaches, one you can only walk to (and was too far for that), and the other two had parking quite a distance from the beach so you had to lug all of your beach gear 2 blocks for one and about 5 block for the other. There were six of us. The layout of the house was great. We each had our own bath. The kitchen was big enough for all of us to be in there during meal preparation. The location was good, although it is on the end of a canal so you get a lot of junk in the water. The boat dock was well equipped. The pool bathroom and grill were great! The appliances in this house need updating or repair. The washing machine shook so badly that the first time we heard it we thought something was breaking in the house. The toaster was a complete joke. Couldn't even fit a large piece of bread in it. The knobs on the cooktop were loose, so you had to switch them from burner to burner, and you were never sure what the setting was for a burner. The cooktop was a conduction type, which is high-end, but it works differently enough that we weren't sure when it was on and when it was off. The house was equipped well with pool toys, but the bathrooms needed additional towels. Only one hand towel per bathroom, and the half bath didn't have any. Our first night there, the pool controls drained the hot tub, and often the hot tub wasn't hot. When the pool guy was there, he said you shouldn't use the controls on the tub at all, use the ones in the outside bathroom.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: Dear Mary, Thank you very much for your review. We try to maintain our house to the highest standard. To be honest I’m somewhat puzzled by your review. If you had contacted our agent or me, we would have responded to you questions immediately. I have looked into your comments. There are 21 large bath towels and 21 hand towels in the house. The controls on the hot tub are all marked: jets, heater, lights etc. The only way to drain the tub is by pressing the drain button. We installed new knobs on the burner. There were 2 spare ones in the drawer. The settings on the cook top range from low (1) to high (8). There are two toasters in the house, one for thin slices and one for larger pieces of bread. We tested the washing machine and it works and washes perfectly. I don’t know what the noise made. In the meantime we have installed new carpeting. We replaced the microware with a brand new model and now have even more linens, small and large towels. I would like to thank you again for staying in our home and hope to welcome you back in the future. Best wishes, Max Apotowski

Arub house was one of the best houses we have ever rented. Very clean, modern and maintained to the fullest. Very nice decor both inside and out. Pool/Spa heaters in excellent working order and the pool was spotless. I would recommend this property to all who visit Marco Island. The location was perfect and centered nicely on the Island. Jason at Marco Escapes (local property manager) was always in contact to insure everthing was great.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, adventure seekers.

We stayed at this beautifully decorated home 12 july - 25 july 2011 The house was really nice, with 4 bedrooms all with beautiful bathroom(s). There is a large swimming pool and spa. The house and screened lanai are very spacious. Great kitchen and nice outside grill. The house was very clean. The weather was really nice, the sea is very close and the house is on the canal with a big dock. Shopping and dining is less than 5 minutes from the house and you can go out for dinner at different places near the house. We came from the Netherlands and loved it! The wifi inside made it possible to keep in touch with our family and friends back home. If you want to know something about the house you can mail us We absolutely recommend this house Peter and Lia Visee Baarn, The NetherlandsRecommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway, adventure seekers, people with disabilities.

Why the Owner Chose Private Homes:
Marco Island is one of the best spots in the world to spend a relaxing Holiday. We have been visiting this beautiful little island every year since 1999. We stayed at hotels and in rental homes. We kept dreaming of finding our own home away from home on Marco Island. In 2009 we finally decided to buy this gorgeous property on Aruba Court. After repainting and redecorating, the house is now our gem in paradise.
Since we live in the Netherlands we can’t visit the house as much as we like. We would rather have people enjoy our home than having it empty for months. We are very proud of our home on Marco Island and hope you will enjoy it as much as we do. If you have any questions please contact us.
The Unique Benefits at this House:
This two-story house is really unique because it offers 4 large bedrooms all with en-suite bathrooms. It makes it great for families or a group of friends. There is a lot of space and privacy for everybody. Not only does it have a spacious open floor plan with a downstairs living room but also a cozy family room upstairs. There is a spacious screened lanai, but also a nice sun deck on the second floor with a great view.
We have looked and stayed in many homes on Marco Island but none of them had so much personal space as this home.
