Best Thanksgiving

Great location for boaters, with easy access to fishing, islands and restraunts. Great neighborhood to walk in or just sit out back and enjoy the view. House was great to hang out in, play pool, nicely updated, awesome second pantry and ample space for a family of four.

Comfortable stay with so many amenities!

James was a great host and even gave us the opportunity to do an early check in as we had a red-eye from the west coast land that morning. So many great amenities at his property such as billiards, pool, jacuzzi, multiple fridges and in-unit laundry/dryer. My co-workers and I really enjoyed our stay and would love to stay again if ever in Marco Island. Highly recommend staying at James's property!

Great house, great location

We loved this gorgeous house with four large bedrooms, great location, large pool, beautiful views, etc. we rented a boat and the owner allowed up to use the dock, which made pick up and drop off of the boat easy. The beds are also very comfortable. Great restaurants, a pharmacy and supermarkets are less than two miles away. I recommend it highly.

A bit disappointing

The house layout and decor was different from the pictures online. Furniture was moved around. We needed pest control to come to the house, the TV in the master bedroom didn’t work, we had to plug in the dishwasher to work, sand fleas in the cushions on the patio which ate us alive we had to remove them. and the house seemed to be a storage place for other rental equipment….. dishwashers in the garage a graveyard of old patio furniture , on the side of the house and the owners personal cars in the garage , which was unavailable to use. It just didn’t have a feel of a proper rental house, it was a bit beat up. Was NOT WORTH the money I paid. Very disappointed! On the positive note, there were kayaks for the family to use, the pool was a nice size, and the beds were comfortable.

Great outdoor space!

We enjoyed our stay & found it comfortable for 6 adults. Loved the outdoor space! The location is great — on a canal & convenient to most things if you don’t mind driving. We would suggest unbreakable glasses & dishes for outdoor living, instructions for using the TVs, and lighting in the bedrooms that can be accessed without crossing the the room. We wondered if the timer (wherever it was) on the hot tub needed to be reset as the jets only ran during the day. Loved the pool and Overall, it was very comfortable and we would use & recommend it again!!

Weekend Getaway

We rented this property at the last minute due to an unforseen change in plans. Our host was very accommodating under these circumstances. The location was perfect. We went by boat and could get to many restaurants from that location. The pool was a great way to cool down and relax in between events. There were numerous #'s of pool toys that kept us relaxed and busy. The house was comfortable with a great outdoor space and roomy and well stocked kitchen It was nice to have bedrooms that accommodated adults. ( no twin beds) and bathrooms for all. The large dining room table was perfect for our card games. We will be back.
