house has all amenities needed for a enjoyable stay. The pool area is very private and the pool itself is maintained and clean. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels. the beach umbrella's and chair's could be updated but they would suffice.We would rent again if available for our schedule.

Thank you for alerting me to the condition of beach chairs and umbrellas. They will be upgraded immediately!!
This was the perfect home for our family of 4. The pool was a hit and the short walk to the beach was great with a 2 year old. We will be back! House was clean and the pool was crystal clear!

Hostess was very responsive and helpful. Super convenient to the beach and the JW Marriott! Perfect location to lots of restaurants as well. Very nice!
Denise and Paul were very welcoming and responsive! We loved staying in their home, such a short walk to the public beach access. We loved the heated pool and outdoor shower!
Very nice home, great location, comfortable, relaxing pool, many nice amenities like bikes and cable options. Easy access and quiet neighborhood.

Thanks James. Would love to have you and your family return! Thanks for leaving the house so neat and clean!
The hosts are both incredible lovely people who will help you out every step of the way. The house is in the perfect location for public beach access and has more than enough beach supplies including wagons and bikes! 10/10 will go back again!
This house offered a prime location to the beach, yet off of the main road. The heated pool was used daily by all and the safety features were comforting to parents of small children. We easily accessed the beach and were grateful for the beach supplies available for us to use. Additionally, the house was comfortable and accommodated our family with all needed items- kitchen utensils and equipment, outdoor grill area, 2 full bathrooms, washer/dryer, and a closet full of towels. Our host, Denise was helpful and easy to communicate with throughout the whole process. She responds quickly and professionally- even putting up a Christmas tree since she knew our family, with three kids, would be celebrating Christmas morning at the house. Overall a great home.
We have a small dog and couldn’t book a condo on the beach. This house is as close to the beach that also allows pets. Great pool and location. The bikes in the garage came in handy. Great vacation!
My husband, myself, daughter, son in law, their pup and our son enjoyed celebrating Christmas in this lovely home.Location could not have been better.Outdoor area was wonderful we ate all of our meals outside.House was very clean with everything we needed for our stay.Host was easy to communicate with and was very helpful. Loved our Christmas vacation at the beach.
We stayed in April of 2024. This is an amazing three bedroom house that was beautiful inside and out. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved the 5 minute walk to the beach. There are tons of other activities and we had also planned and went on a private shelling excursion, a shark fishing trip, an airboat ride and a Python hunting trip.
My husband and I rented this house and stayed in it for 8 days with our three boys- ages 14,11, and 9. The house was perfect for our family. The location can’t be beat- less than .4 miles to the beach. We really enjoyed the screened in pool area and we were able to walk to a variety of restaurants and the JW Marriott. I would highly recommend this property.
It was our first trip to Marco Island and Denise and Paul greeted us upon our arrival and gave us the lay of the land and some restaurant tips. We had a great week, walking over to the beach, relaxing by the pool, barbecuing a bit and dining at some great restaurants. The house is meticulously maintained inside and out. We highly recommend it if you plan a trip to Marco Island!!

Thank you James for the great review! You guys were great guests and left my home in super condition and respected all the rules of the house! You are all welcome back anytime!
Our family enjoyed our stay in this cute home. The location was great for enjoying the beach and other amenities in the area. The house was equipped with everything we needed including kitchen and dining items and beach and pool toys. We all had a wonderful time. The owner went above and beyond by putting up a Christmas tree and other decorations for the holidays. Denise was great to deal with.

Really nice house, great location!
We wanted to spend 5 days in Marco Island and decided to reserve this place based on the positive reviews. We were not disappointed. We're a family of 5 and the house had plenty of space for everyone. Kitchen and bathrooms were very nice, and looks like they'd been recently updated. Bedrooms were very nice, clean and comfortable. Great pool, loved eating on the lanais. Easy 5 minute walk to the beach, which had spectacular sand and seashells. We'll definitely be back!

Thank you, Paul. I loved meeting your family. I am so happy that you enjoyed your vacation. We would love to have you back!
We loved staying at this house. From the moment we set foot on the property, we were greeted by our friendly hosts who gave us a tour of the property. We were informed that there was a pack n play and high chair available for us to use for our toddler and that was very nice. We were very familiar with the area and knew this place was the perfect location. The beach access is right across the street which was very convenient. We loved walking over for sunsets. It was also close to many restaurants. We loved the pool and shaded outdoor seating area for both us and our toddler. Overall, it was a great stay! We were able to spend time with family that was local and had a great and memorable vacation!
Thoroughly enjoyed this property. Owner was extremely responsive to questions and when communicated that ceiling fan did not work the owner had it repaired quickly. The house was perfect for 4 adults and 2 toddlers. Lanai and pool were fantastic, plenty of chairs around pool. Beach access and supplies (wagon, toys, cart, umbrella, boogie board, chairs, and more were great. Kitchen was well stocked with most necessities. We cooked often on grill. Outdoor shower was an added bonus.

About the host
Hosted by Denise Gendreau
My husband and I are originally from Massachusetts. I am a retired school teacher and my husband is a chemist. We purchased our first home on Marco in 2011 and fell in love with the island and lifestyle. We live on the island most of the year but travel back during the summer months to spend some time with our children and grandchildren.
Why they chose this property
We ourselves are beach lovers and spend almost every day at Crescent beach. We pass this property on the way to the beach and always thought it was a superb location. We thought how convenient it would be just to walk to the beach and not worry about parking. When we saw the "For Sale" sign we knew it was meant to be!
What makes this property unique
What we loved about this house was its location and the fact that it has been totally remodeled. It is so convenient to the JW Marriott which has great restaurants and music and activities. It is also within walking distance to the movie theater, Catholic church and lots of shopping and restaurants.
