About this house rental

This tip-lot home is at the end of a cul-de-sac facing Landmark Bay, one of the most sought-after wide-water views on Marco Island. The home is designed for indoor-outdoor living, with sliding glass doors from three different rooms leading to a large, screened lanai and heated pool.

A public entrance to the widest beach on the island is a 6-minute walk from our home. Tigertail Beach, outstanding for bathing, birding and shelling, is a five minute drive and South Marco Beach, also wide, is a ten minute drive. Rookery Bay bird sanctuary is a short drive up Route 951. And for golfers, there are several signature courses close by.

For those who like to fish, Landmark Bay is called Tarpon Bay because it shelters baby tarpon year-round. It is not unusual to occasionally see four and five-foot tarpon splashing about just off the patio dock.


Landmark Bay also hosts a variety of small fish (snapper, sheepshead porgies, cravalle jacks, ladyfish) and an occasional snook coming to hook. Also, dolphins cruise through the bay on a regular basis, popping to the surface in their acrobatic display.

In addition, there is much bird life on the bay, including many pelicans, herons, egrets, ibis, spoonbills and, of course, seagulls. On occasion, you might spot an osprey, hawk or owl. There also are colonies of burrowing owls on Marco Island.

The single-story home has a 165-foot seawall with a 20 x 18-foot patio dock jutting into the bay. There is an attractive living room for entertaining, a full, formal dining room, and family room with tile floors throughout.

For entertainment, there is a 46-inch Sony Bravia HDTV and a Sony Blu-ray player. There also is a Comcast DVR that allows archiving of current Comcast TV programs and movies for later viewing. Secure high-speed Internet service is provided throughout the property

Most of your time probably will be spent outdoors on the screened lanai, which is furnished with dining table and chairs and a breakfast bar, which can be served directly from the kitchen. On the lanai is a wicker set with a love seat, lounge and chair, a good place to read a book and/or watch the children while they are in the pool.

For those who love the sun, the patio dock will be the draw while at home. There are several chaise lounges on the lanai that can be moved easily to the dock. And fishing from the dock, ahhhh!

For you and your family's safety a Ring security system has been installed on the front, right and left sides of the outside perimeter of the house.

Hope you enjoy your stay!!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Location to the beach was great. We enjoyed fishing in the canal and daily visits from the dolphins.

Absolutely beautiful view from inside and outside. My husband and I took our daughter and granddaughter and it was perfect for all of us. We spent so much time in the pool and on the outdoor patio. Very private, quiet location right on the bay. We saw dolphin almost daily and lots of fish and birds. Short walk to the beach and nice neighborhoods for evening walks once it cooled down. We would choose this place again in a heart beat!

The stay was amazing. We have always stayed in condos in Marco but switched it up this year to have better access to a pool. The house and location are awesome. Dolphins swam by every day and the whole family had a blast in the pool all week. We will definitely be back soon.

The location and outdoor space of this property is hard to beat. When at the home, the majority of our time was spent on the pool and on the dock fishing/watching dolphins. The beach is a very short walk from the home and that allowed us to go multiple times a day, not needing to take a bunch of stuff with us every time. This home is very close to shopping, groceries and restaurants which was really nice. The home is older and pretty dated with some needed repairs, but still pretty comfortable. We had to rewash all the dishes/silverware and clean out most of the kitchen drawers when we arrived as they had a lot of dirt/dust/old food in them. To the owners credit there is a number to call for cleaning issues, but we weren't really interested in having the cleaners come back if that's how they cleaned in the first place. For the price this home is a good value as everything is getting so expensive on Marco these days.

We’ve been renting in Marco for 10 years. The view of the water has been the best we’ve had- we saw multiple dolphins every day. Really enjoyed the outdoor area- caught several fish on the dock. The property itself is in need of some updates and a thorough deep cleaning. We had an issue with the door code upon arrival and the AC quit working the last two days. Chris was very responsive and helped get the code working quickly and had a call for maintenance ASAP for the AC. Both issues were resolved.

Wonderful location for walking to the beach. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai watching the dolphins every morning. This is a beautiful property with fully stocked kitchen for preparing meals. Chris was quick to respond with some minor issues we had. Great communication. I would definitely rent this property again.
