What an awesome place to stay. We had 10 people in our party and there was plenty of room for all of us. The views were absolutely amazing and the dock was great for fishing and hanging out. We saw dolphins and stingrays right at the dock. There was a great supply of cooking utensils and tons of plates, silverware and glasses. We will definitely stay here again.

Family Fishing Vacation

The house was setup perfectly for multiple families. We loved the pool area and living/ family room is open so we felt like we all had plenty of room. The sunsets are beautiful and as far as fishing we caught bait and fish everyday for a week! Definitely going to make this an annual trip for our family.

The place was much bigger than expected and had a great layout. Clean… There were 9 of us and no one was cramped because of how spacious the place was. Plenty of bath and pool towels. Kitchen amenities were great, having a laundry room was a big plus. The pool and dock close together was nice for keeping an eye on the kiddos. Loved being able to pull into the garage for packing the cars up late at night and not have to fumble around in the dark. Called on an issues that was addressed right away, response time A. Gorgeous view and sunsets, extremely relaxing. I suggest renting kayaks since you have a dock to tie up to. There’s a place close by that will deliver and pick them up for you.Only thing we struggled with was the grill as we like to grill. It didn’t have a proper tray under it to catch drippings. We had to do some improvising to keep it from dripping onto the ground.Note to people who want to use the dock a lot and have kids. Bring old towels to put by sandy path to wipe feet off. I also put them at the bottom and top of steps and before going into house. It really helps eliminate tracking so much sand in. I learned to do that years ago. Keeps mom or as I grama from sweeping up every time kids come and go If you do not enjoy this place something is wrong because we all thought it was awsome. If the good Lord permits I’ll be back with my kids and grand kids again.

Stupendous

The pictures on Vrbo don't do it justice. Great house for a family get together. Lots of water wildlife, including sharks and dolphins. Great fishing as well. The spa and pool are a huge plus. Having kayaks and bikes would be highly recommended. The screened porches are amazing!! It was great to open the sliding doors wide and let the December Florida air into the house without the threat of bugs. Sunsets are spectacular from the 2nd and 3rd story porches. Our family had a great time and would love to be back some day.

Fantastic!!

What a great property and host! This property was better than we could have imagined! We didn't want to leave! The property was very clean. The pool and dock were awesome! We spent most of our vacation in the pool and fishing from the dock! There are no words to describe the sunset view from this house! So many things to do and places to eat within walking distance! I would give this house 50 Stars if possible. We are already planning our next vacation to Matlacha!

Matlatcha

My family, which consist of my husband and 6 kids ages 7-18, stayed at Matlatcha for a week in March 2025. The good stuff:The house itself is beautiful. It sits right on the water and has a great pool for the kids. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms and a laundry room. The master suite takes up the entire third floor. It was a quiet neighborhood.The bad stuff: the management company requires you to drive (out of the way) to their office to get the key code for the house. After flying all day, driving an hour from the airport, this was the last thing we wanted to do. It would have been better if we had been sent the key code and then had the instructions in the house. When we arrived, their was no water in the house. It was all turned off. Took about an hour for it to be turned back on again. In the middle of the night (3am)the fire alarm went off. We searched and there was no fire but it gave us a fright. The next day ALL the fire alarm went off the entire day. This resulted in a firetruck coming to the house, the manager coming to the house. They guessed it was with wiring. The last 2 days the key pad on the door stopped working entirely. Again something with the wiring in the house being off. There are no garbage disposals in both the kitchen sinks.There were absolutely no provisions in the kitchen. Not even salt/pepper. We were given one roll of TP in each bathroom. No ice maker or ice cube trays.

Beautiful house with amazing sunset’s

Our family loved this house. We had more the enough room for 7 adults and 1 pre teen. The sunsets are amazing at this house. The house is furnished with everything you need. We are able to cook many meals in the spacious kitchen. The owners really thought of everything. The elevator was nice to have for our mom that uses a walker and couldn’t take the stairs. The island is beautiful and the people are super friendly.
