Perfect home for a family

We loved our stay! The location was perfect. The backyard was so relaxing with the pool and canal. The pool “toy chest” was fully stocked for my kids. The pool basketball hoop was an added bonus! My kids fished off the dock morning and night. The beds were all comfortable. I’d have to say, this was one of the most stocked homes we’ve rented on Vrbo. It had everything we needed! Ralph was very easy to get ahold of too. The check in processes was breeze! We would definitely stay here again. Thank you Ralph!

Wonderful Home!!

My wife and I stayed for a week to celebrate a special birthday vacation and the home was as exactly as described and amazing!! The location on the canal is perfect and the outdoor pool area is wonderful. We also enjoyed the bikes and the garage has everything you need for the beach. Communication with the owners was fast and they took care of everything for us including having an item we left behind shipped home. Highly recommend this property and we will definitely return!!

Great Family Trip!

We had a great Christmas Break with our Family! The property was just as advertised, and all communication was seemless. Our weather was a little cool, so we especially enjoyed the heated pool, biking, and paddling around in the protected canals. The house had everything you need when you fly; comfortable furniture, all the kitchen equipment, beach chairs, games, and more. Thanks again!

Cozy waterfront home

We really enjoyed our stay at this property! I don’t think the pictures capture it well. It’s a very cozy, well appointed home. The lanai and outdoor space are great. We loved swimming in the large pool, as well as, eating meals at the spacious outdoor dining table. We also enjoyed sitting on the dock in the mornings, with our coffee, and at night, watching the sunset and stargazing. The location is great..close to the beach, restaurants, market, shops. Ralph and Linda provide everything you need, from bicycles to a citrus juicer. We also really enjoyed kayaking right off the dock. Ralph was very accessible to answer any questions we had during our stay. I highly recommend this property.

Great cozy home as pictured in listing. Close to all. Great way to live on Marco Island for our three week stay. Bikes provided for rides to the beach! Anything we needed or wanted was provided. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Great kitchen to cook our dinners, plenty of restaurants nearby if dining out. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Loved being on a canal. Overall a great experience!! Communication by the owner was very good.

Beautiful Christmas Vacation!

Marco is our paradise and we were so pleased Ralph and Linda opened their home to us. The outdoor amenities could not be beat, the pool was beautiful, the waterfront property was amazing, watching fish and jellyfish each night and day in the canal, and the screened in patio was awesome! We had everything we needed for our beach trips-beach cart, umbrellas, chairs, toys! Close to park, farmer's Market, and the main strip on the island! Loved our stay on San Marco!
