Marathon 2023

Villa Murano did not disappoint! It was palatial...from the beautiful tile throughout to the immense kitchen island to the spacious suites! Spectacular views from every room. The infinity pool and surrounding deck were amazing. It's the perfect place to hangout day or night! Richard was super accommodating, easy to reach and talk to and took care of us on a daily basis. A great host. A special thanks to Richard and Scott for our memorable last night on the water! We absolutely loved it!

Perfect for a family vacation!

The home has AMPLE space for a large family! Within each of the four master suites was an additional bed, kitchenette, TV and living space. This was perfect for any family member that needed a little downtime and break from the rest of the family. The pool and outdoor living space was perfect for everyone to spend time together and don't miss out on deep sea fishing (or just taking one of the boats out) taking the boat right from the dock!

Relaxation Station!

Villa Murano did not disappoint. Our group of retired railroaders and wives came with high expectations based on the VRBO listing and the property lived up to the description. Owner James and Property Manager Richard were accommodating, attentive and helpful during our stay. Five couples shared the property with plenty of privacy in our personal suites and lots of open common areas for socializing. Property is well equipped in the kitchen including paper goods, spices, condiments; all bathrooms were spotless with plenty of towels. Pool towels were washed and laid out each morning by Richard which was a nice bonus. Plenty of amenities to enjoy … fishing rods/bait, paddleboards, beach chairs/umbrella, noodles & netted floats and kayaks & life jackets which we used over several days of our vacation. By far the best feature from our perspective was the amazing 60 foot pool with hot tub. Temp was perfect every day with beautiful lighting for night swimming. The property also provides a golf cart which was convenient to nearby Sombrero Beach, Publix or the bank. Richard connected us to several local chefs. We hired Chef Heather MacDonald who prepared and served a delicious meal (and she managed to accommodate the various dietary needs of our aging group). All in all a delightful experience. Highly recommend this property.

Awesome vacation

Our stay was fantastic. The property is beautiful and so spacious. The family from 1 year old to grandparents enjoyed every minute. The manager was extremely responsive. Everything you possibly need is provided. The stay was like being in a five star hotel. Pool was our favorite as it was nice and warm and there were kayaks and paddle boards supplied along with fishing gear. Golf cart also supplied and we used that to go to Sombrero beach. Awesome time.

Wonderful Getaway

Everything you need for a wonderful vacation is on the property. We weren’t looking to go out a lot with a Covid surge over the holidays, and this offered the perfect place for 11 of us to enjoy a stress free family vacation

Excellent

The home is perfect, especially for larger families. The home is stocked with everything you'll need, from towels to condiments to fishing gear to bikes and helmets to games and video games. A lot of thought went into this home. The grounds are beautiful, the pool is outstanding. Most importantly the on-site manager is extremely helpful and welcoming. A great home, and we will certainly return.

Best Family Vacation

This was one of the best family vacations, starting prior to arrival. James was very attentive to our questions and accommodation requests. Upon arrival we were greeted and assisted throughout our vacation. The property is gorgeous. It felt like home. Many more amenities than expected. The kitchen was equipped with everything needed and more. Pool heated and plenty of towels. Great entertainment sitting areas. Very spacious for a large group. As stated one of the best family vacations we have taken. Thank you James and Richard!
