Great home away from home!

We stayed for a week with 8 (my husband and I, our 16 year old son and our 2 married sons with their wives and our 2 year old grandson). The livingroom is so nice and large, we spent many evenings either watching a movie or playing games. Kitchen is well stocked, also lots of beach towels. John was very responsive on any questions or comments. A 4 bedroom home to rent is not easy to find and i would definitely cone again!!!

5 stars across the board!

The house was great for our needs. We enjoyed the split floor plan with the master on one side and the other bedrooms on the other with a great gathering area and open kitchen in the middle. The kids loved the pool and did some fishing off the dock in the back. The water views were outstanding. The house was sound, clean and everything we needed was provided. We hope to be back next year!

Great stay

This house was great. It was our yearly family trip to a National Park so there were 3 households. There was plenty of space! The sunsets were amazing, the pool used multiple times a day and a great location to things. It was an easy drive to the Everglades and Biscayne NP. We saw dolphins from the dock which my kids loved. Would stay again without a second thought.

We come to Marco Island every year and this was our favorite home. Thank you to John and Janet for allowing our family to experience your spectacular home. Our children are grown but reminded us of their youth trying to get them out of the the amazing pool. The view from the deck fabulous at sunset.

7 day stay

The home at 180 Starfish was absolutely amazingly beautiful and spotless. My family of 4 adults and I loved spending many hours each day fishing on the dock and seawall. Even though our catch of 15 minimum size keeper mangrove snappers did not equal the time spent fishing it was alot of fun. The swimming pool was very clean and everything about this house was perfect.

Perfection

Our stay at Starfish was absolute perfection and by far one of the nicest houses we have rented in the 8 years of staying in Marco Island or Naples. John and Janet are amazing hosts who are so thoughtful and quick to respond to any and all questions. They truly do want to ensure you enjoy your vacation. Perfectly located, the house is spacious and beautiful with a stunning view of the gorgeous FL sunsets. We even saw dolphins! Everything you could need is available including a lot board games to occupy the rainy or lazy days (my family of 6 played a lot of clue after long days at the beach). We wouldn’t hesitate to rent this property again, and most likely will once we know our vacation days for next year.

Summer 2024

Property is amazing. Was equipped with everything we could have possibly needed. Loved the huge living room and kitchen. Perfect for family breakfasts and dinners. There’s a Publix Supermarket 5 minutes away and also a Walgreens. Pool was great and so was the dock. Loved our stay. Only bad thing was that when we checked in the garbage cans on the outside of the property were filled to the very top. Had to keep our trash in the garage until garbage pick up day. Not a deal breaker. House was amazing!

Perfect house for a family vacation

The house is absolutely beautiful. My kids fished off the dock every day and caught all different kinds and we even got to see some dolphins. The pool was nice and refreshing especially on the real hot days. The house has everything fishing poles, beach chairs, beach towels, and bikes. House is very convenient to the local supermarket and convenient stores. The owner was very responsive to text messages for any questions we may have had. We definitely will be back!!!

Thus far, best beach vacay ever!

Our family has been enjoying a summer beach trip every year since Nana was diagnosed with cancer 10 years ago. Suddenly, this became a priority. We love the West Coast of Florida but first time in Marco Island. This home was absolutely perfect for the “older” family members right down to the 3 month old. No cooking utensils needed; we did a lot of cooking! The pool offered an excellent, end of day reward for a “ hard” day (😃) at the beach. The owner was always available for questions and the Paddle Marco rep added a lot of valuable wildlife information while delivering our kayaks. The kids have shells, shells, shells to bring home! All that to say, highly recommend this property, but not on our week, we are already booked, again. THANK YOU John, Paddle Marco, Marco Island and the little “iggies” next door for such a memorable trip. See you soon.

Wonderful week in paradise

We’ve never been to Marco Island nor rented a home for a vacation. After staying in this amazing home for a week I don’t know how we will ever stay in a hotel again. The home is huge and the location on the water is beautiful. We saw a dolphin or two almost every morning, caught a ton of fish off the dock, swam in the warm pool everyday, and enjoyed the bikes to tour the neighborhood. House has everything you could possibly need for the beach which made it so easy for us with 3 kids in tow. We rented kayaks and just around the corner was gorgeous open water to explore. The owner was super responsive to any question I had while there and I had NO complaints or issues whatsoever. We couldn’t have been happier in our weeks stay and would go back in a heartbeat!

Why they chose this property

Marco Island is truly a slice of Paradise on Earth. This particular home has fantastic water views and is a 'water direct' home only yards away from the Gulf of Mexico back waters and the mangroves. That is why the bay, which this home is on, is teaming with wild life.
Great for picture taking and kayaking. Rental kayaks are available to be dropped off and picked up.
