About this property

Waterfront Vacation home, Private Pool, Lanai, Dock, Walk to Beach

Spacious three bedroom home with beautiful large heated pool just a Few Blocks from the Beach! Enjoy outside living at it's best with all day sun on the pool and a house where all rooms open to the lanai. Internet access provided. Bikes are provided for exploring the island. This home is on a direct access canal and only minutes to open Gulf waters. Kayaks provided to explore the miles of canals lined with beautiful homes. Fish, sunbathe and dolphin watch from the dock. Enjoy outside dining on the large south facing patio....gas grill provided. Lay in the sun by the beautiful screened in private pool and lanai. You are walking distance to several restaurants, shops, etc. This non-smoking 3 bedroom 2 bath home is sparkling clean and has tile floors throughout. There is a queen sized sofa bed in the family room along with a big screen TV and video games. The 2 car garage is equipped with bikes, kayaks, coolers and beach cart. Please Call or e-mail today for more info.

Location, Location, Location: Location is very important for a Marco Island vacation home. Our Marco Time home is only 4 blocks to the beautiful South Beach entrance so it is very easy to walk or bike to the beach. Be careful of properties that may be close to the beach but are not close to a public beach access. Also, Southern exposure is important, and our pool and lanai has a great Southern exposure.

Outdoor Living: Our home has a large 15 x 30 pool and a fully screened in 1700 square foot Lanai for a great outdoor living space. This will accommodate a good size group without feeling crowded. This is a much larger outdoor living area than most Marco vacation homes and a great place to relax.

Waterfront Location: Our Southern Exposure Waterfront Canal location is a great feature even if you are not into fishing or kayaking. The canal makes for a much more spacious outdoor setting and offers privacy and long views. Kayaks and fishing gear provided in the garage. Relax on the dock and look for dolphins and manatee.

Great Vacation Stay!!

The photos don’t do this property justice! What a great location and home for our family of 5 (2 grandparents; 2 adult children; 1 grandchild). The layout of the home is perfect to congregate or to chill separately. Pool and dock were a huge bonus as well as proximity to all things Marco. Communication with the property owner was excellent…..book this one if you get the opportunity!!

Birthday Getaway

Loved the Floorplan of this home. Traveling with another couple and it felt like having adjoining rooms with a common kitchen and pool. Very nicely maintained home in a beautiful neighborhood. Comfortable furniture chairs, beds, pool, etc. Lighting in the house could be enhanced, but that's just a personal preference. I'd definitely stay here again. Lots of extras like bikes, golf clubs, beach chairs, umbrellas, wagon, toys for the kids, etc. Overall clean and tidy. Beach is .5 from the house, $10 parking is available near the beach but can fill up fast. Favorite dinner location was Deep Lagoon, definitely the best key lime pie, also enjoyed Snook Inn & Margarita's Mexican. Wootens for air boat ride was great. Beautiful, safe island - hope to visit again one day soon!

Wonderful Spring Break

The home was perfect! Location was ideal, about 1/2 mile from both public beach access paths. Two living spaces, so perfect for our kids to have a movie going while the adults watched a movie in the other room. Neighborhood is beautiful and we went on multiple walks each day. Highly recommend this home!

Quiet and relaxing.

It is a place where you have to make your own fun. This is not a place to go for fishing. The surrounding water clarity is poor. We did go out on the boat and some nice beach spots and small islands. The pool and the house were nice and we had a good time .

Great stay!

Our family of 5 stayed here for a week in June 2021. We loved our time on Marco and were very happy with our stay at this property. When we arrived we found the check-in process to be very easy and the house was as advertised with one exception. One photo shows a secondary bedroom with two twin beds but that room now has a king bed. This was a little disappointing as two of our little guys had to share a bed for the week, but not a huge deal. The house and furnishings are a little dated as seen in the photos, but everything is functional. There is even an old PS 3 with games from the 2000s which my kids loved. The linens provided were sufficient, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, silverware, etc. The pool was clean and so was the house. The yard is nicely landscaped and the dock is in good shape. The garage had bikes - which we used one morning as well as a pair of kayaks which we used in the canal. There is also a nice collection of beach gear. Fishing off the dock was outstanding and we caught fish day and night. We used the grill two evenings. Its a nice larger Weber gas grill and it worked great. Upon arrival one of the A/C units wouldn't click on, but by 6pm that evening the owner had someone out to fix it. We were so grateful. The location on the island is very good. It's a short bike/drive to the beach. A walk to the beach is a little longer but not unmanageable. It's about a 10 min drive to Publix and a short cruise to open water if you have a boat. I hope we have the good fortune to be able to stay here again. It was a great vacation.

Very Comfortable House....Home Away From Home!!!

Our family of eight (which includes my 71 yr. old parents) just got back from spending 5 fabulous days at this property. Our family has been vacationing at Marco Island for at least 15 years. We usually stay at a beachfront condo. However, as our children are now young adults, we thought a house would be a better choice. We are so glad we chose this house! The house is very spacious, and comfortable. It is centrally located, close to the beach, and entertainment. There is beach access by two different locations, the Marriott and South Beach. If you choose to walk to the beach, the walk takes 10 to 15 minutes, depending on how fast you walk, and which route you take. (Yes, we timed it!) If not in the mood for walking, you may drive there and park. The drive takes literally a couple of minutes. There are bikes available, as well. Our young adult "kids" loved riding the bikes to the beach in the evening, to watch the amazing sunsets. There is a hydrobike on the boat dock, which the kids rode along the canal, admiring the rest of the beautiful houses. Although we did not have enough time to use them, there are two kayaks in the garage, which could be taken throughout the canals. The house has a beautiful formal dining room, which unfortunately, our family did not even get to use it once. Since the lanai has plenty of seating, we ended up having all of our meals outdoors! The kitchen is well equipped, with plenty of china and silverware. We even got to grill one evening. The pool was very refreshing to come to, after a hot day at the beach. The property is clean, and well maintained. Don was a pleasure to deal with throughout the rental process. He was very thorough, explaining everything, and providing all contact information to local services on the island, in case something went wrong during our stay (which I am happy to say, nothing did!). This is a beautiful, spacious, comfortable house, which actually felt like home! We definitely recommend this property!

MarcoTime, Right On Time

The house is everything advertised and was a joy to have for the week. The location is very convenient for walking to the public beach, particularly since there is limited public parking, and is very near many restaurants and other shops. The lanai and pool are awesome, as are the dock and canal frontage. There were plenty of operable bikes and two very nice kayaks to enjoy sightseeing along the canals. Don was very helpful from start to finish and very accommodating as well. All in all a wonderful stay and we Look forward to renting again and bringing our own boat.

A little bit of Paradise

Everything about this house was great! It was clean upon arrival with many available amenities. The owner was readily available to answer questions and offer suggestions on things to do/places to go. We used the pool area a lot! It was nice and relaxing. There were pool floats provided to use. In the garage there were 5 bikes that we used several times. There was also beach chairs, beach umbrella, beach cart etc that came in very handy for our trips to the beach. There are 2 kayaks there as well. We kayaked off the dock in the canal to a little island where the kids found some cool Shells! We also saw a few dolphins on the way! The house is in a great location. Easy access to anything you would need on the island. When we return Marco, we would definitely try to stay here again! Thanks for the great hospitality! Many memories were made!

Don was a pleasure to work with and gave us all the information we needed to access the house easily. House was very clean and great setup for our family of four with two teenagers. Pool was nice size with all the toys. We enjoyed the bikes and often walked to the beach, which was a 10 minute walk. Kitchen was great. Plenty of beach towels and bath towels. Had a great week.

Great place to stay!

This house had everything we needed. Bikes, pool toys, and two kayaks. Walked to the beach in 10-15 minutes. Quiet neighborhood with a friendly guy next door. But the pool was the best! Huge and heated so we got to swim any time of the day or night. I couldn't get my son off the dock though. He wanted to spend all day fishing off of it. And we seen manatee, dolphins and tons of fish in the canal.The only complain was the beds were a little firm for us. We have a memory foam mattress so if you are use to soft, you might have to adjust. But I did not take away stars for that because it was the only thing bad I could say about this place. Thanks Don for a great vacation! We will be back!

Great relaxing spot!

We had a great time here. The pool temp was perfect so we really used the pool often and the water bike was novel and a great way to see homes up and down the canal. We used the land bikes and kayaks as well. The home needs some updating, but certainly has everything you’d need and everything was in working order. It was windy several days, but the deck by the pool was secluded enough we didn’t really notice the wind. Loved the easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Even played mini golf one evening. The fires did create some smokey breezes, but it blew over quickly. We saw 4 dolphins in the bay, which was a treat. Great home for a vacation! Thank you.

About the host

Hosted by Don Olson

Host profile image
We live in Humboldt, Iowa where I own a company selling industrial equipment and my wife is a retired High School teacher and nurse. We also own an interest in Hydrobikes Inc. the world's best selling Water Bike that is also located in Humboldt, IA. We love spending time at Marco Island!

Why they chose this property

We have always loved Marco Island and bought this vacation home with (2) other couples back in 2010. We try to travel as a group to the house once a year to make some improvements and enjoy Marco. The location close to the beach and the large Lanai and pool is what really sold us on this house.

What makes this property unique

The Southern Exposure on the pool and lanai make this a great place to relax and enjoy the sun. The canal gives a spacious outdoor setting, more privacy, long views and the opportunity to fish and see dolphins, manatees etc.
