Property manager very helpful. Safe and Beautiful location

The pros: Amazing view from the condo! Beach is full of shells and beautiful! The cons: The owner inaccurately accused me of damaged fridge drawer, that was broken before we arrived. There was a broken closet door which she found out about during our stay through her cleaning crew. This is all delinquent communications. It's only been 2 weeks since we have checked out and she has called me twice to hound me about the keys. I have mailed them about a week ago and have a receipt. She probably will receive them in the next day or so. I cannot control the speed of usps. If she wanted them sooner she should have a drop box and have someone take care of it or send a prepaid envelope with the method she wants it sent. I physically went to the post office to return the keys. This is way beyond what a renter is normally expected to do. When she mailed the keys to me it was sent regular postage. She is claiming the keys are worth $110. If this is true why didn't she insure them herself?! The linens are from the 80's and towels are stained and ragged. The kitchen full of unusable items, peeling toxic nonstick pans, black caked cookie sheets and the coffee pot iis not what"s pictured. but something from the 80's. The furniture had so many patches and stains. The list goes on and on. She is also saying we had excessive laundry and was charged an extra $25 from her cleaning crew. I had to sort through the towels to find the few that weren't disgusting. It was cold the last 2 night's we were there so we used another blanket. There was no mention on the booking site that I was expected to do laundry on these items. What am I paying for?! We paid $2688 for a weeks stay in a very outdated and non updated unit. Most of the items are not expensive to replace every once in a while. She hasn't updated them in decades! I have formly filed.a complaint with VRBO because she is calling, texting and sending me emails about these keys. I'm feeling harrassed! VRBO highly recommended I post a review. I initially wasn't going too but after these events I feel I had too.

The condo is in a 19 story high rise with 3 slow elevators. The condo was as described. The decor could use the expertise of a professional decorator and new linens. Additionally, it would have been most helpful to include some household items....garbage bags, dishwasher soap, spare toilet paper, etc. The appliances were fine. The speakers on the TV were 'blown'. However if you want to go to Marco Island, the location is satisfactory.

The location was amazing - stunning view of the beach and sunset. Can’t beat it! Apartment has everything you need and very clean. Johanna was extremely communicative and very pleasant to work with. Will def use again!

I stayed here for 3 weeks in January 2021. Johanna was wonderful to work with. Checking in and out was a breeze. The property was just as the pictures show. It was quiet, comfortable, clean...and the view was outstanding! It was a perfect view of the wildlife preserve, beach and the Gulf. It was nice to have dinner at the dining table while watching the sunset. I really enjoyed my visit and would highly recommend staying here. Thank you, Johanna!

Owner took great care of us and her property. Extremely clean inside of condo. Felt right at home the whole time. She was a great host.

This is an Amazing location and and Fantastic view. Very clean. Price is right. Owner was very nice and accommodating. Would stay at this condo again.

The condo was very clean and comfortable and the building and grounds were very well kept. The owner was easy to work with and very responsive. It was a long walk to the beach, but we knew that when we made the reservation. There was a nice view of the natural area from the balcony. It was our first visit to Marco Island and we enjoyed the area very much.

We spent three great weeks here. We cooked a lot and all the things we needed were there! We spent most of our time on the balcony, as the views are wonderful. We would return in a heartbeat. Johanna was amazing and so kind.

Another excellent Marco Island vacation! This was our first time staying in South Seas after coming to the island for over 30 years. The condo was very clean and more than enough space for our family of 4. Some things are outdated and could use an update (ie, towels), but I would stay here again in a second. The view was amazing. The location was perfect. Thanks for sharing your slice of paradise with us!

We spent 2 weeks in this perfectly located condo! We didn’t mind the walk to the beach at all, but a few new beach chairs and beach cart with the large wheels would be helpful. We hope to be back next March!

The condo was inviting and equipped with everything we needed. The best part by far is the wrap around deck, giving spectacular views. Worth every penny. The pool and the grounds very well maintained! We were disappointed that it was such a long walk to the beach, but did not deter our good time. Working with this owner was a delight. She supplied us with all information needed about the condo & the building. Any question or issue was addressed quickly. We would not hesitate to go back!

A great location with comfortable furniture and beds! Beautiful views day and night. Close to great restaurants and shopping.

If your looking for a Gulf front location in the Marco and Naples area, this is your place to escape and relax! A very homey and relaxing southwest view of the gulf, this condo is extremely well kept and quiet. The owner was very accommodating and easy to work. We would recommend this stay for anyone who wants direct beach access in a private setting..

Great location for a nice quiet relaxing break. We found some nice local restaurants around Marco Island.

Unit had a wonderful view and was very well maintained. I would not hesitate to rent the same unit on return visits.

This unit has the absolute most stunning view of the Gulf and Tiger Tail beach. It is hard to imagine a unit with a better view! The suite is kept immaculately clean and it has everything you need to enjoy your stay. Johanna is wonderfully detailed and was very responsive to all of our needs. She made the entire rental process smooth and easy! The building and grounds are safe, secure, and welcoming. Everyone is friendly and courteous and it just makes you feel at home! We will absolutely be returning to this condo for future vacations!! We had a wonderful, relaxing, beautiful week on Marco Island staying in this unit! I am already daydreaming about when we can get away again to spend time there!

The photos and description do not do this destination justice. The condo itself looks similar to the photos, but the photos make the condo seem smaller than it actually is. I was surprised by the actual size of the unit when we arrived. The balcony was the same way, it was much larger than the pictures, making it very easy to enjoy the views while eating on the balcony. The condo is located in a large building with a great pool. The building is placed close to the center of town, but far enough away to make it seem like a real vacation destination. As we rented a condo, we went to some of the local stores to grab groceries. Some of the stores closer to the unit itself were a bit pricey, but driving a bit further out of town got stores with normal prices. The host of this condo is very easy to work with and very easy to get ahold prior to and during the stay. She is happy to help with anything she is able to.

We had a great week in Johanna's condo. It was very clean well appointed with all the comforts of home. Johanna is extremely easy to work with. She responds quickly to inquiries and provides detailed instructions on use of the property. It was incredibly nice to sit on the expansive wrap around balcony and view stunning sunrises and sunsets with morning coffee and the drink of your choice in the evening. The beach was also incredible. A nice walk to a crescent beach that was simply beautiful. Shelling was a lot of fun early in the morning. A long sand bar made it very safe to wade out quite a distance. This was one of the best, if not the best VRBO experience we have had. The property was well managed, well-maintained, secure and beautifully landscaped. As I said, it was a great week.

Four Adventure Bridge ladies had a great time at the condo. It is the best place to view the ocean sunsets plus the bird sanctuary. We saw many ibis, pelicans, herons etc during our stay. The dining room windows are new and specially tinted. Johanna was available via internet when I had questions. Restaurants we loved: Red Rooster, Mango's Dockside Bistro, Cafe' de Marco north on Bald Eagle Drive, The Liitle Bar in Goodland and the Sunset Grille on the south end of Marco Is. We also drove to Everglades City for lunch and saw 12 alligators in the canal as we were driving! One update we would like: better towels available. . . they are getting worn. We used the blender to make morning smoothies each day. It was indeed a fantastic stay for us on Marco Island. Loved the access to the balcony from each bedroom and the living area, plus the four recliners in the couches! Glad we found this condo on VRBO.

We had the most beautiful view! Had a great vacation and would definitely go back!

Weather cooler than we were hoping for. Not Johanna's fault though. Marco Island is quite charming with many good restaurants. Beach approach is hard pack for easy walking , do need some sort of foot covering. Easy walk to Tigertail Beach though must wade across narrow lagoon to access the length of the beach. All in all good times 😊

We have stayed many times in this condo. The owner is accommodating and quick to answer all questions. The balcony view is stunning. Close to restaurants, shopping and grocery stores. Kitchen is well equipped. Very clean unit. We are quite pleased.
