Projector with Roku tv and all the apps. Extension cords next to beds to accommodate chargers. Feed and be mesmerized by the tropical fish in the 60 gallon saltwater reef tank. Play the piano!

Becky is very hands on and provides excellent communication! The house is beautiful and very very clean...everything was in great condition. Great stay!
Very nice property… you will find here all you need for your vacation, everything nice and clean. Love feeding the fish! Becky is easy to communicate with, clear and always available. Will book it again!
Wonderful getaway in a well equipped, comfortable home. Quick access to a beautiful beach, lots of good restaurants nearby and great location in general.
We loved the location, the amenities (robes, bikes, beach cart, pool floats, grill, etc etc ), the beds were so comfortable, pool was warm, we found lots of great restaurants nearby and we walked to the beach everyday. Our host Becky was very responsive and attended to our every request. We loved staying at this home and will return!
First x to Marco Island. We loved the beach, restaurants & relaxing at the house! Enjoyed the convenient location & the house had everything we needed. The 6 of us enjoyed our trip! Becky was very easy to work with, prompt when we had any questions, and made our stay more pleasant.
The property is as advertised, very well supplied, including kids toys and equipment. Becky is very available and communicates well. From this home, it is an easy walk to the beach.
Extremely well maintained house. Lots of amenities and a very short walk to the beach. Our host was extremely responsive. A definite five star experience.
The location is great with a very short walk to the beach and ll the top restaurants. The home was clean, well stocked with all the basics and has a terrific pool.
Becky is a terrific host and nothing could have gone better.
We couldn’t be happier . The location and house was perfect for my family. The owner even had a pack&play, toys and books for the kids. We only wished we could have had a longer vacation to enjoy the house. We fell in love with Marco Island and would highly recommend staying at this property. The owner goes above and beyond and thinks of every possible thing you may need! Thanks again
During our stay at Marco we had great relaxing time.
The location is excellent . Its is short walk to the beach. The property a has large covered pool and the house is well equipped with everything, including every cooking gadget, multiple bicycles, to lots of beach carry-ons. Communication with the property manager was easy and she was very helpful with local guidance
We had an amazing vacation at this beautiful home. Becky is an exceptional host. Perfect location, only a short walk to the beach. This home provides everything you need and Becky was so accommodating which was much appreciated! We can’t wait to return to this property sometime in the future!
Highly recommend! Becky was very attentive, friendly and always just a text away if we ever needed anything. The house is just like 5 min walk to the beach, it had everything you could possibly need to make you feel comfortable and at home. We did not have the best weather while we were there but we still had a great time. We hope to be back soon!.
Great house - the owner was gracious enough to meet us at check-in and give us a tour as well as introduce us to the wide array of tropical fish in the fish tank! The house has enough bikes coolers/beach carts/toys etc. that you don't really need to bring anything!
Of course location to Marco Beach (5 min walk) was excellent. Becky had chairs, towels, umbrellas, coolers, and transport carts which made getting the beach a breeze. BBQ and tools easily on site for family night in. Pool was comfortably nice to relax. Bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for all 6 of us. Becky was a quick text away and very responsive. Would recommend staying here again in the future!!
The property was clean with a lot of amenities. Very well located, close to the beach and the main routes. No need to go out for anything. House has everything to do. Great pool. I would prefer more space in the back yard to gather the whole family. The grill needs an upgrade. Thanks. We enjoyed. House has a lot of space. My kids loved the fish tank and the piano.
Becky was a perfect host—helpful, responsive, and always available. The large, heated pool was fantastic. The supplies—and leftover food items—were more than adequate. Provided bikes and swim accessories was another plus. The only concerns were a long, open spiral staircase to an upstairs room that was open to the rest of the house—and the Island’s very strict noise restrictions.
Our family of 7 stayed at this beautiful home for the 4th of July celebration. The house is very charming, centrally located and is fully equipped with everything and anything you may need during your stay, including bicycles, beach chairs, beach wagon, towels, etc. Becky, the manager, was amazing, very accommodating and kept on checking on us during our stay. She also gave us great tips about things to do in Marco Island and nice restaurants to visit. The house is literally 5 minutes from the beach, walking, and this entrance of the beach is more secluded, so the beach does not feel crowded at any time. We had a fantastic long weekend at this house and plan to come back. Highly recommended.
We usually travel to the panhandle for spring break and this was our first trip to Marco. We have a bigger family so vrbos work better for family time then a hotel room. The proximity to the beach was perfect for our daily walks and runs. The house was clean and our host was very accommodating and attentive. The pool and porch were great for days that we didn’t want to stay at the beach all day and outdoor grill worked well. We hope to return to Marco and this vacation home
House is easy walk to beach as promised. Host has thought of everything - beach chairs, beach wagon, beach towels, bikes. House is well equipped. Kitchen has everything you could need. Comfortable beds. Lovely porch and beautiful pool. About a 20 min walk to restaurants. Very safe. Hope to stay here again.
