Great Condo and Location!

A great condo for our long weekend on Marco. Perfect location and great alternative to the expensive JW or other beachfront properties. Easy walk to the beach and restaurants. Condo had everything for the beach, coolers, chairs, umbrella, etc… nice little pool too! Easy parking and check in. Super clean! Will definitely look to stay again.

Great Location and Updated Unit!

You really can't beat the location for the price. It's DIRECTLY across the street from a public access to the beach - 5 minute walk down a tree lined path and boardwalk. The unit is just as shown, newly updated and clean. Very homey and relaxing. The pool and grounds are very nice and well maintained. I have three small nits which wouldn't change our decision to stay. First, it took a little prompting to get the check-in information and we received it day of. Would be nice to have a day or two ahead for peace of mind. Second, the traffic/road noise in the living room (where the sofa bed is if you use it) is surprisingly loud. Several times I checked to see if the sliding glass doors were open (they weren't). Might be good to invest in new, thicker glass/multi pane doors. Finally, and this is truly a nit, the lock on the door to the unit is pretty difficult to operate and requires some finesse and patience. Again, none of these would stop us from coming back, but more info is always better than less imo. Hope to come again!

Condo on Marco Island

Condo was immaculate and located close to a beach access. Well decorated and appointed.All items in condo were of high quality.A drawback-welcome letter doesn’t explain location of condo over retail establishments.There is no signage with name of condo. Important to note condo has no association with the Marriott chain.Biggest problem was both TV’s didn’t work. Owner called a handyman and he came after our checkout. A neighbor/friend of owner tried to help with TV for 30 minutes. No luck. BTW-AFC/NFC Championship games were on the night of arrival.Owner was easily accessible and easy to work with via phone and text.

Weekend visit

Overall you can’t beat the location and value for this place. It is directly across the street from an incredible beach. The unit is clean and although on a main street, it is quiet.Towels and linens were plentiful, and there were beach chairs and a cooler. Only minor point was there were no Kuerig pods or ground coffee for Keurig machine and drip coffee machine. It would be nice to have these on hand for people that arrive late (like us) to be able to make a cup of coffee the next morning. All in all this is a great choice!

Excellent alternative to JW

Stayed here when attending a conference at the JW Marriott and it was the perfect location. Could not have been easier to get to and from the JW. It’s a fraction of the cost and you get a private more spacious accommodation than a hotel room. Would certainly return

Great location, very nice condo. Enjoyed my visit very much. The condo was clean and provided everything I needed. The one load laundry rule puzzled me, because if you leave the sheets and towels the end of your stay, you got 2 loads already. I like my own towles so I didn’t have to leave two loads behind.Otherwise everything was great. Thank you

Marco Island is so beautiful! This place was clean comfortable and perfectly situated with beautiful beach access right across the street. Property owner was very communicative and helpful. Apartment has everything you need, including all the beach stuff. Clean and comfortable. Lovely terrace. Pool is small but very nice. My one ‘so-so’ comment- as a New Yorker/ North Eastern beach goer, I missed the boardwalk/ walkable downtown scene that most NE beach towns have. However, the beach itself is gorgeous and there are plenty of places to eat and shop, you just have to drive. Absolutely lovely visit!

This property truly is in the perfect location if you’re not staying on the beach. The walk to the beach was easy. The condo itself had everything you could possibly need and was very comfortable.

Booked here for location - it is so easy to walk to beach from here and unit was well stocked with all essentials. A few minor housekeeping/maintenance issues and really rough around the edges communication from host is the reason for 4 stars, but location can’t be beat.

April vacation with family.

The listing is very accurate. We had myself my wife, my seven-year-old boy and my 16-year-old boy on this trip. The plan was my wife myself and my seven-year-old in the king bed and my 16-year-old out on the pullout. It was a good plan and plenty of room for everyone. Sadly, All of us managed to catch something from our plane ride down. One with strep another with type a flu… So certainly put a damper on the trip. However, the house was perfect and we got to know the inside of it way better than we expected. We did get out to the beach a few times and some of our favorite restaurants from when we have been down before. It is really a fantastic location to do anything you want on the island. Lisa is very responsive and helpful. The condo complex itself has a nice pool and is very quiet. So think older couples rather than young families running around the pool. We would definitely stay here again and I’m sure it would be much more fun without the sickness. :>)
