Extraordinary view, unlike any other on Marco Island! Direct access & unique wildlife

This exceptional 4 bedroom/2.5 bathroom single family home is on Caxambas Bay with rare unobstructed views, perfect for watching Florida's abundant wildlife such as dolphins, manatees, iguanas, turtles and pelicans from right beside the pool. This home is located in such an extremely quiet spot on the island that you will sometimes hear the dolphins cruising by before you even see them, yet you are still a short drive or a 15 minute bike ride from the Marco Island beaches and resort areas. You can bring your best furry friend along with you if you'd like as this home is dog friendly, an additional non-refundable $250 pet fee will apply.

The home boasts a large pool and a huge lanai area with southern sun exposure for entertaining with amazing water views. A propane grill to dine in as well as a gourmet kitchen with plenty of space to please the chef of the group. There is a relaxing sand spot next to the home that can serve as your own private beach next to the water with lounge chairs and a fire pit. Please note: this home is NOT on a beach, there is a seawall and the sand area is a private beach area that does not run into the water. You can even fish right from the brand new boat dock with the ability to allow a boat to tie up, offering water, electric and shore power. This home offers it all just relax in the sun and enjoy the fantastic views!

The master suite provides a large king size bed with a water view and direct access to the lanai and pool area with a private master bathroom. The 2nd bedroom offers a queen size bed with a flat TV and a water view, the 3rd bedroom has two queen sized beds and a flat TV while the 4th bedroom is equipped with 2 twin size beds and a flat TV. There are two queen size sleeper couches in the living area for any additional guests and family members that want to tag along!

We come to Marco twice a year. First time we've stayed in this particular house. We bring a boat and spend most of our time fishing and exploring islands. If you don't mind keeping your boat in the water, the floating dock here works great. Also, the access to the primary waterway is excellent. The view here is exceptional. The only drawback: the house is a little dated. We don't spend a lot of time inside, so its not a big deal for us. The pool does not have a Lanai. We've stayed at a few now with no Lanai and it has never been an issue. I think Marco sprays for bugs on the regular. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

We were 4 couples. We all loved this place, being on the bay, having the pool, was great!The house needs a little attention…The pillows not so hot.Dishwasher was broke, but they did tell us it was ok to use and it did get the dishes clean.Would be nice to have a mirror in the bedrooms.Also the one bathroom would have been nice to have something in the tub/shower to put our stuff on.All this being said,, we loved our time there and we actually hope to come back next year.Hopefully some of these things will be corrected by then.We saw dolphins and did some fishing, was nice to have fishing rods there.Also, we loved the lanai and ate all our meals there.I would definitely recommend this house!

Pool party!!!

The kids really enjoyed the pool! It was nice having an outdoor shower and outside access to one of the bathrooms. The kitchen was not stocked well. One of the pull-out couches was broken. Boaters cut pretty close to our dock while our fishing lines were out. The neighbors were rude.

Amazing Views

This house has some amazing view. The pool was perfect nice and warm. The weather was perfect. The house had plenty enough space. It is a little bit of an older house but for the price I couldn't have asked for more. We caught about 7 different types of fish. The daily dolphin shows! Beautiful sunrise and most amazing sunsets. We spent 90% of our time right at the house and ate dinner every night on the porch patio. I would highly recommend for a layed back family. If you want a high class rich house this may not be for you. I am not a complainer so it was perfect for my family. Plenty enough towels. We definitely overpacked with having a washer and dryer we could have packed less for sure.

Family Vacation

This property and location satisfied all the needs of our group! It is located in a quiet neighborhood for the most part. There was some neighborhood construction at the time. The pool was well maintained and the dock perfect for the rental kayaks. The kitchen is perfectly situated between the two living rooms so no one is ever left out. The property offers an abundance of towels, chairs and accessories for the beach and pool. The only issue we had was that both sleeper sofas could not be used at the same time because they are in the same living room. Overall, everyone agreed it was a wonderful place and we would love to return next year

Great location but needs work

We choose this house based on location which was wonderful, beautiful view and great boat dock that we kept our boat at. We saw dolphin and manatee out there everyday which was so nice! We came with another family and there kids so the layout was great for that separation and space. Upon arrival though we could tell this house needed work and the pictures looked alot better than what we showed up to. Definitely needs a deep clean. We found food and wrappers all over, game pieces dumped out behind furniture, dirty base boards and our kids found pills on the floor in there bedroom. The pullout bed is broken as well as outside screen doors and broken patio furniture laying around. Unfortunately our vacation was over a week were it rained and stormed most of the days which made the ceiling in the kitchen start to leak significantly. We contacted property management and was told they would call the following day and send someone out and we never heard anything back. We’ve rented many homes on Marco and even though this location was best we unfortunately wouldn’t stay here again unless it was better taken care of.

Blow Your Mind Amazing! Great Layout and Gorgeous Views.

This house was in a beautiful setting among the mansions and pristine gardens of the Caxambas Pass neighborhood. The bedrooms were spacious and the layout of the house allowed for privacy even with larger families. We watched the dolphins pass by the dock every morning and the pelicans fish all day. The pool was always the right temperature no matter the weather with the heater. The kitchen was well suited for our family of 8 with a waffle maker, blender, and 2 different coffee makers, and a large comfortable dining table. The home is also situated only a few miles from Publix for every need you could have. It was well worth being off the beaten tourst row of hotels to have our own lawn, sand bar, a unbeatable view of the water, palm trees with a hammock hanging between. The owners have thought of every need with sand toys, fishing rods, beach towels, even a cooler.

It is an older house but set up beautiful. We had plenty of room, and lots of extra towels and blankets. We paid to have the pool heated and it was perfect. We had a boat delivered to the house and the dock was great. We saw dolphins daily, and gopher turtles when the sun was out. On one walk we saw a bobcat. The views of the Gulf of Mexico were incredible. The property manager was great and efficient. Would recommend this place for sure

Great Location - Needs some repairs done

Great location and super easy check in process. Their were several items that needs to be addressed. Broken beds, broken patio furniture, beach towels are old, kitchen pots/pans are in need of replacement, one of the bathrooms need water pressure fix (also should consider updating it) and dryer takes almost 2 hrs to dry for a medium size load.

Wonderful ocean front

Huge spacious accomodations. It was great having our boat so close and the brand new deck accomodated the tides. Everything was fine except the back bathroom had no water pressure so we all used the master bath. I believe the bathroom could be fixed with a new shower head (drillled out). The pool was delightful. It seems that the birds like it when no one is there. It would be helpful if the management checked the deck before guests arrived. (Not a pretty sight). The kitchen was fine but could use more glasses. No whisks. Otherwise very nice.

Great View and Good Layout

We rented this house for a family getaway. The view of the bay was amazing. We had dock access for a boat which we rented from a local boat rental place. The house had a pool as well which looked over the bay so it was nice to sit in the pool and enjoy the view. The layout of the house was perfect with views of the ocean from almost all rooms. The house is split with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on either side of the home which was perfect for 2 families to be in. The kitchen was located in the middle with a huge windows overlooking the bay. Our only complaint is that we felt as if the house was not cleaned properly before our arrival. We found someone’s underwear under the dresser in a bedroom, a sock in another room, and water bottle as well. The windows sills had dust and dead bugs on them. We don’t fault the owners of the home for this however they need to ensure that the property manager is hiring the right cleaning people. Other than that we would rent this house again.

Our family vacation

Our family vacation was spent with this lovely VRBO in Marco Island and what a great week we had. We have already booked it for next year because of the location that we loved along the water as well as the pool. My kids loved that it was a heated pool. We loved walking the neighborhood in the evening and we especially loved the wildlife along the way. We did see dolphin…But were hoping to catch a glimpse of the Manatee. We love the layout of the home for our family need and having the washer and dryer was a bonus. The property manager was very professional and courteous and easy to work with. We are looking forward to next year with more family fun!

Wonderful Water Views

We loved the view of Caxambas Pass and watched the birds fly in and out of the 10,000 Islands from the dock each morning and evening. The house is adequate, a bit tired, and doesn't take advantage of the view. Scraggly shrubs block the view from the house.

Great Gem!!!

This beautiful property has a marvelous view… the property could use some updating but overall the location and views makes it beautiful. The pool is not caged in so make sure to bring bug spray. The beds in the rooms could use some updating because they do make lots of noise and have old mattresses…. The management company was fabulous, any issues they resolved very quickly, even on a holiday weekend.

Beautiful Location

We enjoyed our time at this house. 3 wks of paradise. The property is directly on the bay with easy access to the gulf. We caught lots fish and very much enjoyed fishing in the 10,000 islands. We had a boat and the dock was a big plus. We shark fished nightly off the dock. The house could use some deep cleaning of the tile floors, base boards and paint but over all it was nice. The agency was very responsive to my emails and my request for a vacuum cleaner was dropped off that day. I would recommend this property especially if you love fishing!! We will be back.

Needs Work and Cleaning

The place needs a lot of work. Quite a bit of water damage along baseboards. The bedding in one of the bedrooms was not clean when we arrived. Daughter went to get in bed and there was hair and what looked like mulch on the sheets. Advertised that a grill was available-two grills but one didn’t work and the other was not fit to use. General cleanliness and maintenance of house left a lot to be desired. Owners need to spend some money on repairs/maintenance. Great location but wouldn’t return to this house.
