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.

The property was good, and the Location is great. We enjoyed the warm pool, and watching dolphins & pelicans out the back. And, it's an easy walk to the beach.

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.

We loved it here. There are beautiful views from the deck and it’s such a quick walk to the beach. It’s great for couples because two of the bedrooms are fairly equitable.

Great location, great pool! Really enjoyed seeing dolphins in the channel behind the place. Access to beach is very convenient within walking distance. Most everything provided for the stay. Only negative would be a bit outdated and needed a deep cleaning.

We had a nice stay at this home. We had a few questions for Chris and he was always available to take my call. Very responsive. Other then the home decor being somewhat outdated it met all of our needs and perfect for our family. Beautiful view from the bedroom and family room. Loved seeing the water everyday.

House and pool were great. Great location two blocks from beach. House is a little tired and could use a little updating.

We have spent the most fantastic week at this property on Marcos Island. It really was the highlight of our 3 week holiday in the USA. The house was superb. The location on the waterfront with a wonderful swimming pool was idyllic. We saw dolphins and caught many different types of fish off our private jetty. The beaches are a 6 minute walk away and have perfect white sand and clear waters. We went into the Everglades on an airboat trip and took a boat tour of the islands. I cannot recommend this property enough for location and facilities. Thank you.

Property is in a beautiful area seen dolphins every morning , great fishing from the dock . We did kayak behind the house . Everyone enjoyed it . Only complain I would have as a a family who cooks a lot desperately needs pots and pans everything sticks badly . Other than that house / pool are amazing .

Wonderful place to stay in southwest Florida! The house is spacious with lots of amenities. The view of the canal is gorgeous. We had a great time relaxing, exploring town, visiting the beaches, and watching dolphins jumping in the canal!

We’ve been coming to Marco Island for 7 years. This was by far the best house we rented so far. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. House was clean. Beds and furniture were very comfortable, kitchen was well stocked. You had a gorgeous view from every room. The view from the lanai was unbelievable, facing the vast canal. We enjoyed watching the dolphins and birds. So many ways to enjoy the outdoors with patio furniture, loungers, and a dining table set. We are beach lovers and this house was very close to the public beach access and walking to the beach was quick and enjoyable. We always said hello to the little owls nesting at the end of the street. Chris was a great host and was very easy to reach and returned your calls promptly.

The home is located in a beautiful area. The heated pool and deck was everything we needed for a wonderful visit. The beach is very close for those who like to spend time there. Chris is very responsive with any questions. I would recommend this home for anyone who just wants to get away and enjoy the outdoors with peace and quiet!

We loved our time at this villa. It was very quiet and the view is fantastic. We would certainly stay again

The house was not immaculate but in very good condition. It was very clean and had nearly everything we needed besides groceries.
The best part about the place was the location. The view from the pool is spectacular and we were even lucky enough to see a dolphin swim right up to the seawall and catch fish just feet away from us. We also saw a manatee swim by right along the seawall one day. Soaking in the screened in pool while looking out over the bay is exactly what we were looking for.
It is at the end of a cul-de-sac with an empty lot next door so it was especially quiet. At night you heard mostly wildlife when outside by the pool. Barely any traffic noise and only occasionally some music or conversation way in the distance floating across the bay.
It was also very convenient for two adult couples. The master bedroom was on one side of the house and the other two bedrooms and a shared bathroom were on the other side which afforded some privacy and some relief from our snoring friends (and I'm sure they would agree), :).
A public beach is a pretty short walk away (although there isn't a bathroom at that beach so we drove to the one on the south end of the island most days).
I would definitely recommend this place and intend to come back if it's available the next time we are in town.

Wonderful house, super clean, and you cannot beat the gorgeous location!!

The house was in a great location and the views were outstanding. The walk to the beach is .5 miles and has no traffic to worry about. The house could use some updating overall and could potentially be a 5 star property. I’d stay here again just for the location alone,

We have always loved Marco Island and decided to stay the week instead of just a day trip like we had in the past. This property was beautiful. It has something for everyone. We enjoyed fishing off the dock, swimming in the pool, and multiple walks to the beach as the property is so close! Chris was easy to get ahold of and answer any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again!

We spent all our time out on the Lanai or in the pool. Which has a beautiful view of the canal. Saw dolphins, did some fishing and caught several varieties of fish.
Would definitely come back.

Our family of four enjoyed our stay here. The location is spectacular - a short walk to the beach, a 5-6 minute drive to most restaurants, and a beautiful view from every room and the sizable pool. The owner is incredibly responsive - returned my call almost immediately. Just a great experience!

This property is about a 6 to 8 minute walk to a public access point to the beach. Plus the view from the pool area overlooking a small bay is wonderful and very relaxing. Chris was very accommodating and responsive. We had a great stay.
