We spent a wonderful week in Marco in this lovely home. The boat lift was perfect for keeping the boat secure and out of the salt water when not in use and the pool was lovely after a hot day of fishing. We had a few issues that were addressed quickly by the managers.

Thanksgiving

We had a wonderful time and the house was very spacious for our group of 6. I was even able to cook an entire Thanksgiving dinner thanks to the great kitchen area. Also the pool deck was very comfortable and where we spent most of our time!!

Marco Trip

Overall experience was great! My only complaint is the check-in/out process. Having to go to the rental agency is very outdated. Everyone uses electronic programmable locks these days.

Marco break away

Lovely property to stay in. Good outlook on the water. Unfortunately the last couple of days was marred by building work opposite. A bit disappointed that the water to the tub was disconnected. We Brits do love our baths! It would have been nice to have had the chance to order a welcome pack for our arrival from Horizons. We arrived quite late in the day and had to go shopping for essentials. However, overall though a really nice place to stay on Marco and we thoroughly enjoyed our break! So thank you all!

Beautiful location!

Very clean, convenient location. Nice view of the canal. Newer, clean pool. Perfect size for family of 3-4. Kitchen very well appointed with everything you’d need to cook. Beach chairs were a nice touch. Only recommendations to owners would be to clean the outdoor furniture/cushions and provide some nice towels for use with the pool. Thank you for a nice stay! We hope to be back.

Peaceful & Relaxing!

An absolute great place to stay. All stress and worries just disappear. Everyone seems friendly. There is just something about getting up and overlooking the water, that is so relaxing. The pool and hot-tub heating unit was not working when we got there, but was taken care of by a phone call to the property managers. Did not want to leave. Thank you for renting out your wonderful home!
