Perfect Getaway Home!

Location, Location!!! This truly is an amazing location. The home is tastefully decorated with all the comforts you need. Included are all the basics, towels, sheets and even baby accommodations for those that may need it. The kitchen is well stocked with pot, pans (if you want to cook) and plates, etc. no need to pack from home, its all here. Included are bikes, floats and toys for your enjoyment at the beach or at the very nice enclosed pool area with its covered porch. Nice living room area with a large couch and TV for everyone to fit and just hang out. Best of all its pet friendly, so our precious Ginger could come with us. There are plenty of shopping and restaurants in the area to choose from either casual or high end dinning, can't go wrong. We're so looking forward to next year's rental, as I'm sure there will be more. Denise, is a great communicator, and very easy to work with!

Family vacation

We stayed in April of 2024. This is an amazing three bedroom house that was beautiful inside and out. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved the 5 minute walk to the beach. There are tons of other activities and we had also planned and went on a private shelling excursion, a shark fishing trip, an airboat ride and a Python hunting trip.

Marco Island Gem

Our family enjoyed our stay in this cute home. The location was great for enjoying the beach and other amenities in the area. The house was equipped with everything we needed including kitchen and dining items and beach and pool toys. We all had a wonderful time. The owner went above and beyond by putting up a Christmas tree and other decorations for the holidays. Denise was great to deal with.

Perfect getaway!

We loved staying at this house. From the moment we set foot on the property, we were greeted by our friendly hosts who gave us a tour of the property. We were informed that there was a pack n play and high chair available for us to use for our toddler and that was very nice. We were very familiar with the area and knew this place was the perfect location. The beach access is right across the street which was very convenient. We loved walking over for sunsets. It was also close to many restaurants. We loved the pool and shaded outdoor seating area for both us and our toddler. Overall, it was a great stay! We were able to spend time with family that was local and had a great and memorable vacation!

Spring break 2023

My husband and I rented this house and stayed in it for 8 days with our three boys- ages 14,11, and 9. The house was perfect for our family. The location can’t be beat- less than .4 miles to the beach. We really enjoyed the screened in pool area and we were able to walk to a variety of restaurants and the JW Marriott. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect location

We had a very easy process of booking this property and checking in. The host, Denise, was very nice and welcoming. It was a great rental home with a pool to enjoy after the beach. My favorite part is how close the home is to the beach. Our four year old Grand Daughter walked there with ease every day. We would recommend this home to spend your vacation.

Short walk to beach

We were originally going to Sanibel. Happy we found this property. We enjoyed a couple days exploring the everglades. Love being able to easily walk to the Marriott and the beach. We tried driving to Tigertail Beach for sunset and it was ridiculously long walk. We turned around and wasted the parking fee. If we were to return to Marco Island we would only stay here again being able to easily get to the beach. The pool was nice and eating breakfast in the lanai was enjoyable. The area is very quiet. Beds are very soft. I found mine comfortable but too soft for my sister. We recommend staying here for your vacation

Great home!! gray hosts!!

It was our first trip to Marco Island and Denise and Paul greeted us upon our arrival and gave us the lay of the land and some restaurant tips. We had a great week, walking over to the beach, relaxing by the pool, barbecuing a bit and dining at some great restaurants. The house is meticulously maintained inside and out. We highly recommend it if you plan a trip to Marco Island!!

Extended family vacation

Thoroughly enjoyed this property. Owner was extremely responsive to questions and when communicated that ceiling fan did not work the owner had it repaired quickly. The house was perfect for 4 adults and 2 toddlers. Lanai and pool were fantastic, plenty of chairs around pool. Beach access and supplies (wagon, toys, cart, umbrella, boogie board, chairs, and more were great. Kitchen was well stocked with most necessities. We cooked often on grill. Outdoor shower was an added bonus.

My husband and I had a wonderful time at this property. We are in our seventys, and the location was such an easy walk to the beach. The home was very clean, comfortable, and well stocked with everything that you would need including lots of towels and beach towels. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, cart, and bikes. The pool was comfortably heated and so relaxing. The owners, Denise and Paul, met us at the house and went over all of the instructions which set us at ease. Denise was excellent in communicating with us and even texted us a reminder to put the trash out! We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Denise Gendreau

Host profile image
My husband and I are originally from Massachusetts. I am a retired school teacher and my husband is a chemist. We purchased our first home on Marco in 2011 and fell in love with the island and lifestyle. We live on the island most of the year but travel back during the summer months to spend some time with our children and grandchildren.

Why they chose this property

We ourselves are beach lovers and spend almost every day at Crescent beach. We pass this property on the way to the beach and always thought it was a superb location. We thought how convenient it would be just to walk to the beach and not worry about parking. When we saw the "For Sale" sign we knew it was meant to be!

What makes this property unique

What we loved about this house was its location and the fact that it has been totally remodeled. It is so convenient to the JW Marriott which has great restaurants and music and activities. It is also within walking distance to the movie theater, Catholic church and lots of shopping and restaurants.
