Marco Island House

This property was the perfect location. We were able to walk to the beach and the restaurants. The property was very clean and had almost everything that we needed. The only thing missing was a pool, which we knew when we rented it. I would definitely recommend renting this house for cleanliness and location.

Pool was wonderful, neighborhood was wonderful. This was our third spring break in Marco having previously stayed in condos, it was lovely to have our own house and pool area. Highly highly highly recommend. We will be back.

Absolutely Fabulous Stay

We LOVED our stay at this VRBO. Very clean home and pool area. The pool area is spacious and sunny all day. We enjoyed the loungers on the pool deck and the raised ledge allowed our 20 month old to enjoy playing in the pool near us. We reached out to Tammie and she was very friendly and prompt with a response. Absolutely no complaints about this rental. Perfect location as well! Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Can't wait to stay here again!

Wade Kozich Review

Nice, small three bedroom home. Inside very nice and comfortable. Swimming pool was in the middle of construction while we were there which was a little bothersome as it created a lot of noise and dust on some of the days there. Otherwise, we were very happy staying there.

Response from VrboOwner on 2 Sept, 2022
I feel the need to respond to this review. When the initial reservation request was submitted, I did not accept the rental right away. I completely explained the situation and made sure the guest was aware that construction of the pool would be ongoing and the site could be very noisy and dusty during work days. The exceptionally low rate for high season reflected the potential for disruption. I also agreed to provide an additional refund for each day a crew was actively working on the project. When I informed the guests that work was scheduled for the following week, they asked if the crew could delay a day because one guest had a phone meeting planned. I made those arrangements even though it delayed the project and made a one day job stretch into two (afternoon of the first and morning of the second). The guests rented the house for twenty days, crews were on site for a total of three days, and all three work days were heavily discounted.

Family vacation

The house was clean, kitchen was well equipped , location very close to the beach and restaurants, but our favorite part of the house was the pool area and the salt system was a plus, spa was amazing as well. The only thing. That is missing is some bikes, usually very housed that have stayed at Marco has bikes, but other than that we had an amazing time, will definitely come back next year. Thanks Lynn for allowing us to stay at your house .

Backyard Paradise

We very much enjoyed this property. Lynn was very responsive to questions as well as giving us a wonderful directory of restaurants, activities and directions. The location is great - VERY close to the beach - plus walking you pass a very nice courtyard of restaurants including 2 ice cream shops - great for kids. We walked to/from multiple times a day - to enjoy the beach but then watch the amazing sunsets. The backyard is simply amazing - the salt water pool is large and inviting. The outdoor area was so comfortable - shaded with plenty of space. We ate all our meals here, played family games and of course enjoyed the pool. The house has a great layout - very comfortable and the AC kept it very cool. We really enjoyed our stay!

Beautiful Family Vacation

We had so much fun during our annual 2 week Marco Island vacation! This was a first time not staying at a condo right on the beach. We LOVED staying at a house: way more room, more privacy and more family time. We did make many beach trips, which was so close and convenient, sometimes to play during the day or in the evening to watch the sunset. But we lived in the swimming pool! So relaxing and fun playing water games. In addition to all of this we walked to all our dining spots: Marco Prime, Sale’ Peppe, Stonewalls…. We did biking and stroller rides for baby in a lovely neighborhood. Went to the farmers market and ice cream shop. The weather was the best too,

Beautiful home with all of the amenities

The house is beautiful and had everything we needed. It was in a good location and we were able to walk to the beach, some shopping and some restaurants. For the beach, they provided 2 wagons, 4 chairs, a couple of coolers and plenty of towels and a few toys. When we weren’t at the beach, or out shopping or eating, we enjoyed spending a lot of time in the lanai. The spa and pool were very nice and relaxing. We enjoyed the outdoor shower, but would have liked it to feel a little more private. Eventually, maybe the vegetation will grow enough to provide more privacy from the road and homes across the street. There was an outdoor kitchen that we used a couple of times as well. I found the layout of the house was a little odd. The master is in the middle and has a bathroom attached to it that is also accessible from the hall and no tv and the room with the queen room has a small bathroom and is the room attached to the outdoor shower and lanai. I point this out as families with children may not like the fact that their child’s room has access to the outside via the lanai. You can lock the door and there is an alarm. There are two doors to access the lanai from outside the home. We ate at one of the 2 tables in the lanai or the bar in the kitchen instead of the dining room table bThere is a office type room with a couple of desk areas if you want to work remotely while you are there, but why would you want to?

My husband and I began vacationing in Marco Island thirty years ago with our two young sons.
We bought our first vacation property near the beach in 2004 and offered it for rent while we worked up north. The experience was so rewarding that we continued to add and update houses and condos.
Over the years, we developed lasting friendships with local contractors, cleaners, and other service people who have helped to make our properties some of the most desirable houses and condos.
To see our three houses with saltwater pools and spas, look for VRBO numbers 3763142ha, 2394028, and 226360.
To see our three condos in South Seas on the beach, look for VRBO numbers 7550813ha, 4132231ha, and 2734181.
We know family vacation time is precious and we take pride in offering beautifully updated and exceptionally clean rental options in the best parts of Marco Island...and one each in Michigan and Colorado!
Look for VRBO #2859888 to see our delightful "Blue Water Hideaway"!
Look for VRBO #3709210 to see our Colorado home with mountain views.

Why they chose this property

House is just 1/4 mile from the public beach access that leads to Marco's fabulous crescent beach and even closer to many restaurants, shops, movie theater, putt putt golf and more.

What makes this property unique

Incredible new saltwater pool and spa, outdoor kitchen, super cute interior, dedicated office, and more.
