Cute, clean and great location!

We loved our stay in this cute condo and would return and recommend. We found the size just right for the two of us. The condo was clean with a very comfortable king bed and a fully stocked kitchen. The location was conveniently located mid island and across the street from the beach access path. We also liked eating on the balcony. It is covered so if it rains you can still enjoy some outdoor time.

Great Location and Updated Unit!

You really can't beat the location for the price. It's DIRECTLY across the street from a public access to the beach - 5 minute walk down a tree lined path and boardwalk. The unit is just as shown, newly updated and clean. Very homey and relaxing. The pool and grounds are very nice and well maintained. I have three small nits which wouldn't change our decision to stay. First, it took a little prompting to get the check-in information and we received it day of. Would be nice to have a day or two ahead for peace of mind. Second, the traffic/road noise in the living room (where the sofa bed is if you use it) is surprisingly loud. Several times I checked to see if the sliding glass doors were open (they weren't). Might be good to invest in new, thicker glass/multi pane doors. Finally, and this is truly a nit, the lock on the door to the unit is pretty difficult to operate and requires some finesse and patience. Again, none of these would stop us from coming back, but more info is always better than less imo. Hope to come again!

Condo on Marco Island

Condo was immaculate and located close to a beach access. Well decorated and appointed.All items in condo were of high quality.A drawback-welcome letter doesn’t explain location of condo over retail establishments.There is no signage with name of condo. Important to note condo has no association with the Marriott chain.Biggest problem was both TV’s didn’t work. Owner called a handyman and he came after our checkout. A neighbor/friend of owner tried to help with TV for 30 minutes. No luck. BTW-AFC/NFC Championship games were on the night of arrival.Owner was easily accessible and easy to work with via phone and text.

Weekend visit

Overall you can’t beat the location and value for this place. It is directly across the street from an incredible beach. The unit is clean and although on a main street, it is quiet.Towels and linens were plentiful, and there were beach chairs and a cooler. Only minor point was there were no Kuerig pods or ground coffee for Keurig machine and drip coffee machine. It would be nice to have these on hand for people that arrive late (like us) to be able to make a cup of coffee the next morning. All in all this is a great choice!

Excellent alternative to JW

Stayed here when attending a conference at the JW Marriott and it was the perfect location. Could not have been easier to get to and from the JW. It’s a fraction of the cost and you get a private more spacious accommodation than a hotel room. Would certainly return

Great location, very nice condo. Enjoyed my visit very much. The condo was clean and provided everything I needed. The one load laundry rule puzzled me, because if you leave the sheets and towels the end of your stay, you got 2 loads already. I like my own towles so I didn’t have to leave two loads behind.Otherwise everything was great. Thank you

Marco Island is so beautiful! This place was clean comfortable and perfectly situated with beautiful beach access right across the street. Property owner was very communicative and helpful. Apartment has everything you need, including all the beach stuff. Clean and comfortable. Lovely terrace. Pool is small but very nice. My one ‘so-so’ comment- as a New Yorker/ North Eastern beach goer, I missed the boardwalk/ walkable downtown scene that most NE beach towns have. However, the beach itself is gorgeous and there are plenty of places to eat and shop, you just have to drive. Absolutely lovely visit!
