About this property

Beautiful Water Views, 9-min Walk to Beach, 7-min Walk to Restaurants, 5 bikes

This house is in the best location on the island, just a short walk to the beautiful white-sand beach, miniature golf, and award-winning garden. It's also close to the art center and Marco Island's premier shopping destination, Marco Walk Plaza, where you'll find specialty shops, fine dining, a sports bar, an ice cream shop, and much more.

This property has a large screened lanai that offers complete privacy in the heated pool with southern exposure on the right side of the lanai, providing unobstructed sun throughout the day. It's located on a corner lot with an enormous yard overlooking the water canal. Kids will love playing in the spacious grassy yard with its rock garden and shady trees. The house has a private dock that gives you direct access to a large waterway, and you can also enjoy fishing directly from the dock.

Some of the included features of the house are the granite countertop kitchen, stainless steel appliances, double sinks in each bathroom, a walk-in closet in the master bedroom, and two family rooms for the entire family to enjoy. It sleeps eight, with one king bed, one queen, two twins, a sleeper sofa, a queen-size sleeper sofa, and two bathrooms.

The house has a pool table, board games, cable TVs, free Wi-Fi (wireless internet) high-speed access, and a DVD player. There's a 55" TV in the family room, a 65" smart TV in the living room, and TVs (42", 37", 27") in each bedroom, allowing for plenty of fun family memories. We also provide 5 bikes with helmets, beach chairs, a beach trolley, a beach umbrella, tennis rackets, a wheeled cooler, pool toys, poolside chaise lounges, an outdoor BBQ gas grill, and a hot tub for enjoyment and 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 manatees & dolphins swim by right from our lanai!

Great stay

The property was ideal for our stay to unwind after a week in Orlando Good communication before arrival and on the odd time we contacted the owner during our stay Pool area is ideal for relaxing and location is within easy reach of local restaurants and the beach. Being critical the pool area could really do with a bit of TLC and the plates, cutlery seemed to be a “mosh mash” of numerous different sets, it would be quite easy to replace them for something a bit more modern Overall though any negatives didn’t impact our holiday and we really enjoyed our stay

Great location within easy walking distance to the beach and restaurants. The house has a nice layout for families. Could do with a few upgrades but everything worked out perfect for our family of six. Everything provided for the beach and pool. We would come again for sure.

Great location!

You can't beat the location of this property. And as other reviewers have the stated the property mgr is very attentive and quickly addresses any issues you many have. The house itself is a little run down and the decking around the pool sags when you walk on some boards. Although the yard is fenced its not really safe to let your dog out there off leash. The house could use some new beach chairs as well. Our biggest issue with the property was the construction next door. It started at 7:30 and went to about 3 most days...Saturdays included. I was there for a month and had about 6 days off with no noise. There was several days of putting in pilings for decks only to remove them and then put them back in...This was for about 7 days and then deck building. The worse day was when they were using a wet saw to cut concrete around the newly poured pool...it was crazy loud inside the house. With all this said, I know this is not the owners of the rental properties fault but it did impact our enjoyment of the house.

Comfortable home with great amenities, heated pool, plenty of beach chairs/beach umbrellas/beach cart/pool floaties. Conveniently located, about a 15 minute walk to South Beach.

Paradise Cove

Loved our stay so much we are booked for next year. My only recommendation is newer bikes. With that said, I am an avid biker and these were a bit old and heavy for my taste. Otherwise, loved the place. This was a minor inconvenience. I may bring my bike next year. :) The other comment is how responsive the owners are. I have never had such a positive experience. If we needed anything, they were on it and sent someone to assist the same day. I cannot say enough positives about the owners.

Great stay with excellent location

This property is conveniently located if you are looking for a relaxing family vacation with proximity to the beach. We are happy with the choice of booking this property as our big family with kids enjoyed it. We thought that the accessories such as the beach wagon and the small cart to help you carry things on the walk (7-10min)to the Winterberry beach entrance is a great thought out detail that is very convenient for a family. We also liked that a few beach accessories were available such as the beach chairs and floater toys for kids which adds positively to the experience. The 4 bicycles available in good condition also made this rental attractive. Regarding the amenities. the kids loved the pool table and the swimming pool. We cooked some meals and the 2 ovens available was an added bonus. Though the kitchen stove heating elements might not be working at full capacity because we thought it didn’t heat that great, but for the most part it does its job. The same goes with the central AC of the home. It does its job but we feel there’s something to be looked at. At night the AC cools very well and the temperature stays cool but during the day we felt that the A/C couldn’t handle the hot day well. It wasn’t uncomfortable because we made sure we limit opening the sliding glass doors as much as possible and the temperature stayed around 75-77 degrees but we think the cool air is escaping somehow because the AC struggles to stay bellow 77 degrees and that’s if you lower to 70 or more. Besides these observations we are very happy of the stay and thank the hosts for a fasts response when we contacted them. We definitely recommend this rental to everyone.

Perfect walking distance to beach and restaurants

On top of the beautiful waterfront views and full pool sun all day, being able to walk to the beach and our favorite restaurants couldn’t be beat. The house was beyond clean with a full kitchen, plenty of towels, beach chairs, cooler, pool floats etc. The beds were firm and appeared newer. The owners were incredibly responsive to emails (usually within less than an hour) to the questions we had like how to turn down the heat on the pool. I would 100% recommend this property to anyone looking to vacation on Marco Island.

About the host

Hosted by Qi & Norman Family

Host profile image
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!
