About this property

Beautiful Water View, 9-min Bike to Beach, 7min Walk to Fun Park, Backyard Beach

Our home has beautiful wide water views from most areas of the house and ~1,800 square feet of well-layout indoor living space with a bright, and a large screened lanai that offers complete privacy to the heated pool with southern exposure. The house located only a few minutes walks to the sports center, Marco Island Historical Museum, library, and large multi-fun community park, and 9-minute bike to the white-sand beaches. Enjoy sun the whole day in the screened lanai overseeing a long canal and captivating view of a waterway, or enjoy the tropical breezes while sipping a cocktail under the palm trees on your own waterfront backyard beach area or fish from the private dock.

Some of the features included are 2 family rooms to enjoy, all 3 bedrooms have beautiful canal water views, bright kitchen facing beautiful waterfront, double sinks in each bathroom (both have larger than usual stand-up shower), 2 convertible sofa beds in the family & living rooms, high-powered pool heater, decorated lanai, and southern facing backyard beach to read & relax with a glass of wine/beer/cocktail enjoying the endless breeze coming from extended water canals or seeing boats passing by! Flexible sleeping arrangement -- master bedroom king size bed sleeps 2, guest bedroom #1 queen sleeps 2, guest bedroom #2 twin beds sleep 2, living room convertible sofa bed sleeps 1, and family room convertible sofa bed sleeps 1.

The house includes a full-size pool table, board games, cable TVs, free Wi-Fi (wireless internet) high-speed access, and DVD player, 65" smart TV in living room, 60” TV in family room, 50” TV in master bedroom and the first guest bedroom, and 32" TV in 2nd bedroom. There are leather sofas and recliners, allowing for plenty of fun and family memories. The kitchen has a pass-through window for easy access to outside pool entertaining. The rental also included 5 bikes (with helmets), beach chairs, a beach trolley, beach umbrella, tennis rackets, a wheeled cooler, pool toys, poolside chaise lounges, outdoor gas grill, and a hot tub (5-person 22 jets) for enjoyment & relaxation!

You can also enjoy the convenience of having a private water access dock to tie up the boat you may rent from the local marina on the island for fishing or cruising the inland waterways into the Everglades, up to Naples, or for picnicking on the Gulf beaches.

Just relax, sit back, and watch the pelicans & seabirds flying by right from the lanai!

Wonder Stay!

The house is in a very nice neighborhood. Very clean and stocked with all the items you need so we didn’t have to bring anything. The lanai space was all of our favorite space. Of all the places we have stayed at from Clearwater beach and south to Naples, Marco island didn’t have the best beach access, so this house offered the best water for our vacation. You had the best morning sun and the best sunset orientation. The heated pool and hot tub was great. The beach on the back by the water way gave us an impression of being at the beach. The house was very spacious as well, more than enough room for 6 people. All around we would stay here again in the future.

Super cute property

We had a great stay here. Property was much better than in pics. We loved the outdoor beach on the canal on the property - hung out there and the pool most of the day. Property owners were good about keeping in contact with us and making sure we got in properly and had everything we needed. Would definitely book here again!

Charming Florida Home

One of the best we have stayed in. Super clean with everything you need for your winter break. Pool and spa were fun for the whole family. Rented a pontoon boat and had it parked right outside. Furniture, appliances in great shape, only the bikes were all old. Centrally located to island, so not really easy access to the beach is only real negative. On plus side access to all the restaurants were close and great park to walk dog and take kids to close by. Would definitely rent again.

Great base for Lots of Florida!

We stayed here to be somewhat close to things in Florida we wanted to explore. 40 minutes from Everglades City where my husband wanted to fish in the Ten Thousand Islands. 2.5 hour day trip drive to go snorkeling in the turquoise waters off Key Largo. Plus Naples for anything needed. The house has all that you could need and the hosts were extremely accommodating. The pool and hot tub on the canal made you feel like you had privacy despite Marco Island having lots of houses all right next to each other. My kids enjoyed the pool table as well as the large TVs as the Copa America soccer cup was going on as well. Lots of beach towels which was so nice! Marco Island itself had all the amenities you could need as well. I’d stay here again to use as a base for our Florida trips,

Good base of operations

House was as pictured. Very clean house, clean pool. Simple and straight forward accomodations. Extras were light. We needed to purchase laundry detergent, trash bags, quart size bags, and toilet paper. The fridge is empty/clean. There was a basic spice rack. TV was adequate/somewhat fuzzy with limited direct TV and poor sound. There was one blue ray player, no Bluetooth capabilities. It was fine for us. We did not come to Florida to watch TV. There was a TV in every room. There were 2 showers/no tub. Great hot water pressure. Beds were adequate. You are expected to keep up with laundry/towels, strip beds, start a load on departure, keep up with trash/recycling, and drop off keys so plan accordingly. Pool was cool/warm. Hot tub was good/adjustable. Screened in area and beach chairs on canal were great. Neighborhood felt safe, friendly, central location. Good extras like bikes, boogie boards, beach chairs, cart, and coolers. Can park in garage.

Perfect vacation

Our vacation here was exactly what we needed. Excellent communication from the beginning throughout the whole visit. Our son and wife with a 5- and 2-year-old also joined us. We could not get our 5-year-old granddaughter out of the pool we all loved it. The sandy beach was great for the kids to hide seashells and play in the sand. My husband and son caught a couple of fish out of the canal. we also saw 2 dolphins swimming in the canal. The setting was so peaceful. The house was very clean and had everything we needed. The location was great walking to the park and Farmer's Market on Wed is a must to do. The beaches were easy to drive too or ride bikes. Across the street we saw 2 burrowing owls. We were able to bring our dog along and she loved it too. We were able to take her on long walks. We will defiantly be back. Thank you!

We discovered Marco Island in 2009 by chance, and we loved it so much that we purchased a Gulfview condo during that first visit. Later, we ventured into water-canal properties.

We have two kids who are our best friends. Both have graduated from college and are now pursuing higher education. We have been empty nesters for quite a few years now and look forward to every opportunity to see our kids and their loved ones as much as we can!
