(1702) Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation. Your condo is beautiful. A very special touch was the...note cards waiting for us when we arrived - The note cards are beautiful & I will enjoy them & think of my wonderful time here in Marco Island. We enjoyed the pool & the beach. Alan and I took a romantic cruise on the Princess. There was a prime rib buffet, a band & dancing. Thank you again & we hope to be back to see you next year.

(1702) Thank you! We had a wonderful time on Marco Island. We enjoyed the relaxation and the island not being crowded. We hate that tomorrow is Monday and it's back to work. We all felt we could spend the rest of our lives enjoying being beach bums.

(1704) Just want you to know that we had a wonderful week here at your condo. The weather was fantastic. Had a great time shelling. Our daughter was able to fly in for a couple of days fro New Hampshire. She loved the beach and was thrilled with all the extras you provided (beach chairs, cooler, umbrellas etc). She was so comfortable we couldn't get her off the beach. A promise of dinner at Snooks got her moving. We were able to get grandma down to the beach with the chair the park rangers at Tiger Tail Beach provided. Please tell your grandma, who must be one of the special members of your family, that my daughter loved the birthday card she made for her. Good bye Marco Island. You will be missed!!!

(1702) May 1 Having a wonderful time - Just what the doctor ordered after the winter we had in Philadelphia! It was so thoughtful of you to provide the juice maker & fresh oranges. My husband was in heaven. May 2 We went right to Temple Citrus and bought a 1/2 bushel of oranges to squeeze. Great produce next door also! May 4 We took a tour of the Everglades with Vantastic Tours. Very interesting & fun - saw bald eagles, falcons, manatees - alligators. We had a blast at the "Skunkape" wildlife refuge. Got to hold alligators & my husband was brave enough (not me!) to hold the anaconda! May 5 View is breath taking & so relaxing. Beach just beautiful. Enjoying looking through your binoculars at the birds & other wildlife. Condo is very comfortable and well equipped! May 6 Well, just watched a bald eagle, on the corner of the condo roof, eat his lunch for almost an hour - just amazing! Had dinner at "Little Bar" in Goodland - Fabulous!May 7 Gorgeous day on the beach - Calm, clear - water 83 degrees. Off to Publix for more groceries - Guacamole & pineapple for lunch - Yum! Burgers & fries at Rookies for a late dinner - Really delicious.May 8 Shopping today in search of a "Marco Cat" for my cat collection. No cat yet. Went to Naples and walked 5th Ave. Beautiful shops.May 9 Happy mother's DayMay 10 Lazy dayMay 11 Dinner at Irish PubMay 12 Long walk on beach - found a giant shell but there was a creature of some sort living in it - So, had to throw it back in - Darn! Pizza at Joey's - the best.May 13 Last day - long drive home tomorrow - Sad to leave - Relaxing at pool today - Thanks again for a great vacation!

The condo owners were great to work with. Very easy and very helpful. The condo was clean and just what we expected. It was perfect for us and our 2 girls. They had a pack and play and high chair our 1 year old used which was so helpful. Everything you would need they had. Beach chairs, beach towels, beach toys, beach cart, everything in the kitchen. Had a great time. Loved the pool and the beach. My husband and I enjoyed sitting out on the balcony in the evenings. Everyone was very nice and friendly. Loved Marco Island. Hope to return!

(1702) Another week in Paradise - our third rent to Marco. Beautiful weather - much better than we hear NH is having! Watched a storm march across the ocean - knocked out power & set off the fire alarms. Took an airboat tour & ventured down alligator alley - a must to do! Boys are going jet skiing today (my 16 yr old has to pass a boating safety course first). Took kayaks from Tigertail Beach yesterday. Snook's was great - went to New Italia restaurant. Sophie's in Naples last nite - Very good. Will end vacation with sunset dinner at Quinn's tomorrow. Thanks so much for the info packet you sent prior to our visit - very helpful. The...note cards are a wonderful welcome - Thank you!!A great time had by all!!

(404) We had a great time visiting Marco Island and staying at #404. We loved the view. We appreciated all the equipment and supplies in the kitchen. It saved us a lot of time to be able to fix meals without driving all over. We used your beach chairs and buckets and shovels down at the beach. We can't believe how warm the water was and how much fun the waves were.Thanks for sharing your condo with us.

(1702) Thank you so much for the uses of your beautiful condo. The note cards are very lovely. They are a very welcome touch. Enjoyed the shelling, swimming, & long walks on the beach. Went for a boat trip into the Everglades & saw many different birds, dolphins, & other marine wildlife. On our last day we went sailing on "Off The Hook Adventures." Collected many different shells & saw lots of dolphins. Took in dinner one night at Snook Inn. All you can eat seafood. Went to Stilt's for last night supper. It's great! Hope to come back again.

(1702) Thank you so much for the wonderful welcome gift... What a lovely touch. We had an amazing time. Wonderful weather - Florida is the Sunshine State! Our accommodations were wonderful - just as pictured. Bob was an excellent host as when the blender was not working properly on Easter Sunday he came right over with a brand new one. We enjoyed the warm pool and also often went to the beach. Thank you so much for the use of all the beach items. We had some fun shopping and found some great restaurants - Snook Inn (dinner and we took our fresh catch in from fishing & they cooked it for lunch). Joey's Pizza was great! Our son, Connor, celebrated his 11th birthday there - also great carry out. The Islander was good as was Margaritas.We highly recommend jet-skiing at the Marriott. Excellent time. We also recommend a drive to Key Largo to go snorkeling. An amazing reef - easy 3 hour drive (island to key). Was fantastic.Thank you again for everything. We love Marco Island - Hope to be back soon.

(1702) Thanks again for a comfortable and great location for our stay on Marco. We appreciate the welcome...cards. The shelling was terrific and our car will be much heavier going home. The prize this trip was the largest whelk we have ever seen. It was mostly buried high on the dry sand ridge well above the high water line. It was approximately 6" across the crown and 10" in length - Wow!! Our favorite dinning was Little Bar, Snook's, Cocomo's, Verdy's, and Margarita's. The weather was great the whole time after the rainy arrival day. Sharon really enjoyed the shell flower making class at Emily's Shells and the price was right. Already looking forward to next Dec.

We played golf & more golf, visited the Everglades, enjoyed the pool and beach, spent time with former high school classmates & friends (class '59) and had delicious food at the many restaurants. Beautiful downtown Naples was such fun on Halloween. We had "Irish stew" at McCabe's Irish Pub, watched people dressed in costume & the musicians on the street corner reminded us of our downtown when we were youngsters. One of our favorite places for lunch was "The Turtle Club" in Naples. As all good things must come to an end, we head back to N.J. with hope of returning in 2010. Great place. We will come back again.

We had a lovely time 85-92 degrees F. The water in the beach is much warmer than the pool. Thanks for the beautiful cards of Bob's mom. We brought with us to Canada the different shells we collected from the beach. Your unspoiled beach is one of a kind, preserve it for future generations. We are already planning our next trip. The children do not like to go back to 28 degree F in Toronto. We just like to bring this temperature to Canada.
