A Wonderful Stay

We had a wonderful stay. The proximity to the beach, condo layout and cleanliness were all perfect. The beach view was even better than expected and the pool was nice and large! The owner and staff were very helpful whenever we needed a guest parking pass, an umbrella or had a question. There are also a few good restaurants that are within walking distance. We would definitely stay here again.

First break of the year

Husband and I only get one vacation a year together so we like it to be relaxing and ocean side. Marco Island is another favorite. The condo has fantastic unobstructed views of the ocean and everything you would need inside. It was clean, comfy and close to anything you would want!

The condo was perfect for our family beach trip. Very roomy, great amenities, and the amazing views. We loved sitting on the balcony or in the sitting room looking at the beach and ocean. And the kitchen was really well stocked with everything we needed. Already looking to stay there again next year.
