FAMILY VACATION PARADISE

This wonderful home was even better looking in person than in pictures (it's usually the other way around). From great host hospitality to every imaginable amenity, this home is perfect for the family that REALLY needs to disconnect and re-charge! I highly recommend this home.

Great location with all the amenities!

Seven ladies convened in Marco Island for a girls trip this April. This house had ample space and everything that we needed for a fun, relaxing trip. It was as close to Tigertail Beach as you can get. We used the bikes, beach chairs, wagon and cooler, and enjoyed time around the pool and sipping coffee on the dock. Joel was extremely responsive to any needs that came up before and during our trip. I've stayed in a lot of vacation rentals and this is one of the best!

Absolutely wonderful!

Over 5 weeks we had varying family and friends stay with us and we made so many awesome memories, mostly due to this house. The kitchen! Heart of the home and huge was used non- stop and so was the gorgeous pool and lanai overlooking the canal and mangroves. Even saw a manatee!! Stay here! The owner is fantastic to work with. Cannot wait to come back ❤️

Amazing Location!

Amazing location, privacy, tranquility and nature! We thoroughly enjoyed the backyard oasis, being right on the canal, watching the beautiful coloured skies after sunset and the herons flying into the mangroves to roost at night. Joel, the owner was quick to respond to any of our needs and was a pleasure to deal with! We did provide the owner with suggestions of a few improvements which would enhance the customer experience. We loved every minute of our stay and have left with wonderful memories!

Wonderful Location and Place to Stay

Recently enjoyed this beautiful property for a long girls weekend with 5 other moms. The six of us all slept comfortably, enjoyed the pool and appreciated the ample open space to relax. The home was well outfitted and the location made it easy to have a quick run to the grocery store or Instacart delivery. We walked to the beach and around the neighborhood. Felt safe, relaxed and comfortable. Few small things came up during the stay, but property manager was incredibly responsive and got us what we needed quickly. Internet worked well and supported movie streaming and the occasional work emails/demands. Absolutely recommend and plan to book again. Thank you for offering this home up to share. We made lots of memories.

We love Marco Island

This homeowner was amazing to work with and is the type of owner that you appreciate throughout your stay.The original home booked (the one shown) was beautiful and as advertised. The proximity to Tigertail beach was a huge win! Upon arrival we had issues with some electrical breakers and the AC was not working. This owner responded instantaneously and offered for us to stay in a different property. And the second property was so very close and was just as beautiful and magical as the originally property booked.We felt cared for, respected, and appreciated as guests and we will book with this owner again.These are the kind of people that you want to rent from… if I could give more than 5 stars I would!

Tiger Tail Experience

This is our family's second stay at this wonderful home. Just minutes walk from Tiger Tail Beach. Exceptional bird watching in the back pool area and great kayaking. Owner is incredible to deal with and responsive within the hour. The interior of the home could use a little TLC and updating but overall our experience was great!

Wonderful stay at Tigertail

My family and I had a wonderful time during our stay! The house very comfortably fit our family of 10 (with beds to spare). The pool was always warm (even during our February trip), we loved kayaking and fishing, and even saw a dolphin right from the dock. The location was fantastic, within minutes to restaurants. The walkable access to Tigertail Beach was great for our little ones - we spent lots of time at the playground, and easily walked across the inlet (with kids) at low tide to access the shortcut to the beach! Joel was a great, responsive host. Hopefully we will be back!

About the host

Host profile image
Our family has been making memories vacationing in Marco Island for over 16 years! We just recently purchased this vacation home and invested in some major updates for this home.

Why they chose this property

Our home is just steps away from Tigertail Beach and is still very quiet and peaceful. Enjoy being on water and looking out at mangroves as opposed to someone else's back yard. There is lots of space for families to spread out and enjoy the sunshine!
