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!

Please reach out to our office for any questions or to book this lovely home for your next vacation!

Great location, great house and layout and the pool was perfect. The only drawback was the very limited kitchen supplies especially when cooking for 12 (pans, silverware, storage bowls. In the grand scheme, the lack of kitchen ware had little impact on our stay but you might want to bring some larger cookware if you have a large group. Other than that, this home will not disappoint.

Family Vacation

We absolutely LOVED this property. The privacy and location are so unique. The house layout was absolutely perfect for our family of adult/teenage kids and grandparents that came with us. This house is fully stocked with everything! We rented a boat for a few days and the boat dock was amazing. Morning coffee watching the water and evening fires on the sand are breathtaking . We would definitely come back.

Overall about what we expected. There were a few problems; roof leaks above kitchen, the refrigerator freezer did not cool very good. It could have been a lot cleaner, the cleaning people did not do a very good job. It is an older home that could use some updates.

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!

Great location and view. Family Friendly

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. We had a great time fishing off the wonderful dock and enjoying the wildlife. The layout of the home was great for the two families and kids as there are two bedrooms on each side of the house and plenty of common areas. We would highly recommend this home.

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.

Peaceful getaway

Beautiful property with gorgeous views from the pool and house. It was wonderful sitting in the lanai or laying in the pool with the view, breeze and wildlife. Daily we seen Iguanas, manatee, dolphins and an alligator. Many different birds flying over and loved watching the pelicans. Close to the beach and anything else you may want to do with a short drive. Beds are comfortable. We truly enjoyed our stay.

Marco

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!

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.

Paradise

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

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 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.

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.

Gorgeous, private setting. Unforgettable!

We found the view breathtaking: beautiful sunrises and sunsets, extraordinary stargazing, and an exciting array of birds that will impress any nature-lover. The pool and patio area look out onto the bay, and from that vantage, it feels like there are no other houses around. We also found the interior of the house to be a lovely open layout for the common areas but private and quiet in the many bedrooms. Windows abound, so you can enjoy natural light and the view of the bay even within A/C. There is a screened porch with outdoor couch and chairs too. Three options--patio, screened porch, and interior dining area--meant we could change up where we relaxed according to mood and weather. Loved it here, and we hope to return soon!
