To begin with, we were struggling to find a home that allowed us to stay less than 1 week. Having been to Marco Island before, and also renting other vacation homes throughout the US, we're very well aware of the fact that many homes require at least a 1-week minimum. We were extremely thankful to find a home that allowed us to stay for 5-nights. With that being said, I was somewhat concerned with what kind of condition the house would be in, based on the flexibility. Let me tell you, there's no need to worry about the condition of this home. It's very clean and very well kept. Everything you would need is available to you. When going to the store...all you really need is food, a few garbage bags, toilet paper, paper towels, maybe some soap, laundry detergent/fabric softener(only if you're picky like me...otherwise there were several choices on hand already at the home), and perhaps some baggies/Glad Wrap. The house is in a fantastic location...even walkable to a few stores and restaurants. Tom, the homeowner, is VERY easy to reach and is/was extremely helpful to us. If I were to complain about anything (and I sincerely feel that "complain" is too strong of a word), I would say that the pool is pretty small. My children are avid swimmers so they were disappointed. Although to be honest, that was forgotten once they hopped in and started playing. Also, the fan in the master bedroom makes an odd clicking sound. Not a big deal... There is an oscillating fan available that can be used for white noise. Just be aware. We were very happy with our stay and would definitely rent the home again given the opportunity. Thank you for all of your help, Tom!!!
