We hadn't visited Marco Island in over 25 years.... After this vacation, we want to move there. No joke! We are Jersey Shore regulars... So we are lovers of kayaking and bicycle-cruisers, beaches and sunsets.... This property exceeded our expectations. The home is on a wide canal/lagoon, and near a tip lot which affords very pretty water views from the dock. The fish leap out of the water right in front of you. The pool is clean, and the friendly, professional maintenance person showed up exactly as stated in the comprehensive property information booklet. The screened-in patio is sufficient, although we suggest possibly adding more lounge-style chairs to it. There is plenty of regular chair and bench seating. A bar-style window with direct kitchen access was a very pleasant surprise and made our poolside breakfasts and lunches a breeze!! One side of the patio is naturally shaded providing some of us relief from the sun while others basked in it. The sliding doors open FULLY...A REAL TREAT. The house is comfy and quite clean. MBR is on one end, other 2 BR and Den on the other. We had one issue with the BBQ on day one ... Amazing Griselle had an entire BRAND NEW grill delivered within 12 hours! Pride in ownership is evident. One night we struggled with the Comcast remote until we opened the TV- stand door. The remote probably needs batteries...I mean... There is nothing negative to say! Washer and dryer are in the garage and are quite large capacity. We went to Tigertail beach. Fabulous. Thank you to Griselle for her dining recommendations. On point!! We found real Italian food and even good pizza!! And that breakfast at Joanne's Cup of Joe was worth the hour wait. Pumpkin cheesecake pancakes were to die for!!!! This is the best neighborhood. Period. Upscale, but friendly, and lovely for morning and evening walks. We only wish we could've stayed longer. If you have any questions, you only need to ask Griselle, as she responds quickly and completely. This is a great home and a credit to VRBO.

This home was beautiful! It had everything that was promised and more. We had a great family vacation. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Enjoyed having a house to rent near my mother in laws for thanksgiving. The house was clean and neat and plenty of rooms for 7 people. Like that there was beach towels and beach chairs to use also the bikes and kayaks were a nice feature and both were used.We also enjoyed the pool a lot. Had a wonderful time

We would highly recommend this home for any group traveling to Marco Island. Great set up and location.

I looked through so many rentals trying to decide. I’m so glad I went with this one! Very big, updated and very clean! We would love to come back!

I would recommend this rental 100% and would absolutely use this rental again. The description and pictures were accurate of the property and met my expectations. Everything was clean and well maintained. The rooms were large and met our needs. We enjoyed the pool and outdoor areas and appreciated all the extras like the bikes, beach toys and fishing gear. The owner was prompt , efficient and provided great, friendly service. This was an easy, no hassle process. Thank you!

We enjoyed our stay at this home for a week. It is in a quiet neighborhood, easy to access and close to hotels and beaches. We grilled, used the pool, kayaked and enjoyed the indoors when we needed a sun break. We made wonderful family memories during our stay and would recommend this home for sure!

House was clean and beautiful, felt just like home!! Everything you needed in the area was within minutes of driving!! Will definitely return!!

This home was exactly what we were looking for and exactly as described. We were a family of 8, and the home was spacious enough for all of us to be in the same room together, or to spread out in the family room, livingroom, pool area and dock. We spent a lot of tile lounging at the pool, and watching other family members fish off the dock or provided kayaks. The water views were wonderful. A quick 5 min drive to local beaches. We appreciated the bbq and stocked kitchen. The home was extremely clean with very comfortable beds. Griselle was friendly, accomadating and easy to reach if we had questions. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

We stayed in this beautiful house over Easter/Spring break. We had a wonderful relaxing time here. This was our 4th trip to Marco Island (probably not our last) but our first time renting a house. The house is very clean and has everything you could possibly need. We enjoyed relaxing around the pool or sunbathing on the beautiful dock and ventured to the beach a couple of days too. Overall the perfect vacation and house!

We had a great vacation on Marco Island. This is our 4th time on Marco and first time staying at this home and would highly recommend it. It was clean, comfortable and spacious. We enjoyed the pool, kayaking, fishing from dock and biking. Home is in quiet neighborhood but close proximity to shopping and restaurants. Thank you for the use of your beautiful home!

The house was perfect for 8 people. There was lots of room, we were not tripping over each other, the beds were comfortable and the rooms were a good size. The kitchen was well stocked, (maybe could have used a few extra plates). Everything was clean and well maintained. When we arrived we were missing a few basic stock items and called Griselle and she mentioned that they should all be there and had them sent over RIGHT away. She was easy to reach and right from the beginning easy to deal with, she for sure wants people to be comfortable and have a good holiday. We would for sure rent this beautiful home on Marco Island again. Thank you for a wonderful week Tammy

We spent a two week vacation in this unit and were very happy with the accommodations. This home is very spacious with generous bedroom sizes and a large well equipped kitchen. The views of the canal from the large windows and sliders were nice. The open kitchen/great room area made visiting with guests easy. If you need privacy the living room area could be used. The pool area was screened and kept the pool and surrounding deck area clean and bug free. This home is in a quiet residential area of very nice homes. Grissele was very accommodating and checked in often during our visit. She was especially responsive to an issue with the TV upon arrival and corrected it within a few hours. We would stay here again when visiting the area.

In dem Haus stimmt einfach alles. Sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Komplett ausgestattet. Sogar Fahrräder, Kanus und Angeln. Wir haben uns total wohlgefühlt.

We really enjoyed our stay in Marco Island. The home was clean and nicely decorated. Really enjoyed the kayaks and bikes that they had for us to use. The owners were very pleasant and easy to deal with. I will definitely be back!

This was a fabulous property and the owner is extremely attentive to the registration process, ensuring you have everything you need once you arrive at the house and follow-up. We ended up having one additional person over the sleeping amount (we traveled with kids), and we all fit perfectly in the house. The house is well decorated and well kept. The neighborhood is very quiet and our kids LOVED the swimming pool and the canal. We couldn't get our little guy off of the dock/pier to stop fishing! The kitchen is well equipped with pots/pans, etc., but we cooked primarily on the grill. Overall, you should definitely reserve this place if you want a refreshing getaway! Short ride to the beaches and a short walk to see burrowing owls in their natural habitat (these were new to us!)

Griselle, Sorry I have taken so long to post this review. But after a very relaxing stay at "Casa de Mar" it has taken me at least a month to get back up to speed. So for anyone who reads the reviews, This home has everything you need, in a very comfortable,tasteful decor. Great for a family or group of friends for a relaxing week or longer. So to paraphrase my note in the guest book; Griselle and Sam, March 1st. WOW! Thanks for sharing your wonderful, comfortable home. March 31. :( !!! Today I have a pit in my stomach, like having to go back to school after summer break and NOT having your summer reading book report ready. We will miss "Casa de Mar" till we return again. Now the absolute truth. I was afraid of writing "too good" of a review; jeapordizing our chances for next year. YES, it is that nice! Look no further fellow reviewers, JUST BOOK IT! and enjoy your stay! Tom and Cheryl March '16

This is a great property. It's a good sized house that comfortably slept 8 and is nicely updated. Flat screen TVs with full cable selection. Kitchen is big for cooking and opens up to family room. Pool has plenty of privacy and numerous beach equipment/toys stored in the garage. Take the kayaks out, it's a great way to see the canals! The location is perfect, a short distance to various restaurants, shops, churches and hotels. The owner is super nice and very easy to talk and work with. Would love to stay here again and highly recommend this property!
