Low water pressure. Pool heater couldn’t keep up with the cold temps. Odd noises.

We enjoyed our week in Marco Island. The house was great!

We really enjoyed our stay on Marco Island! The home was nice and spacious. Pros - Large house. Great heated pool with some pool toys in the garage. Great location on the island, which is just over the bridge. (You can see a portion of the bridge from the canal deck). In 10 minutes, you can be to almost anywhere on the island, including the beaches! Plenty of beach chairs in the garage. Also a nice, foldable beach cart to get all the equipment to the beach with ease. Plenty of towels (beach and bath) available. Cons - There were really no extras at the house. Like toilet paper, dish soap, paper plates, coffee filters, laundry detergent, etc. Not a huge deal, as we were made aware of this ahead of time, but a lot of other homes we've rented did include some of this stuff, at least to get you by for a couple days. Walmart is only about 15 minutes away though. The home is older and in pretty good condition for its age, but not the cleanest we've ever stayed in. Mind you, we are Dutch, and nobody is cleaner than Dutch people! 😆 So our definition of "not the cleanest" is probably somewhat different than others. Don't let this hold you back. The shade trees along the pool and canal area... This would be our biggest con. We escaped cold Michigan for the sun of Florida. While there was plenty of sun outside, the trees that line the outside of the lanai really block out the sun. When we booked, we made sure it was a south facing pool because of the sun in the southern sky in the winter. We didn't look close enough at the pictures that do show the line of trees. While you can get some sun in a corner of the lanai for a couple hours in the afternoon, plan on it being mostly shaded. We brought chairs out to the dock on the canal to soak up the rays while we were at the home. If you like to have an option to escape the sun or enjoy extra privacy, this place is for you. If you would like to use the pool under the bright Florida sunshine, you have an hour or so per day. Otherwise, you'll be in the shade. I know everyone has a different view on sun and shade, and none are wrong. I just wish I would've read a review that mentioned this. That's why I'm bringing it up. Overall, we really enjoyed our time on the island.

Nice home Bathrooms were not clean NO arrival, stay or check out instructions for the home. We drove to the rental company to inquire, the woman that we spoke with was so rude and no help. Could not believe it, we took the time to drive over to the rental company to find out how to take care of the home the way the owners would want and we were treated so poorly
