Snook shack

Me and some friends stayed here to fish and it was absolutely perfect for that. Would recommend to anyone looking for an affordable place to stay on the water. I met the owner and he was very nice and showed me where things were.

Great location

Close to all the shops in Matlacha. It was too cold to rent a boat but there is a dock to park one of you choose. Very clean and the host was very responsive to all our questions. We would stay again.

Cozy Suite

We stayed in the Snook Suite in April, 2022 for almost a week. We had an enjoyable time reading on the dock, walking to some of the shops and restaurants in Matlacha. Laid back and low-key; a very enjoyable getaway.

Nice smaller unit more than adequate for a couple. Many good eating and little shops within a short walk of the unit. Very nice and friendly folks in the other units.

Every thing was handled on a very professional basis. The Manager, Charity, was excellent to deal with. Unlike other VRBO properties we experienced, instructions were outlined in a correct and informative manner. Probably will stay there again.

Awesome place and Island!😊

Very cute, little apartment. Clean and well stocked for vacationers. The view from the dock was amazing. Beautiful sunsets. Other guests became fast friends. We enjoyed all the local shops, eateries, and local artists. The staff on the island shops were so friendly and happy to share information and history of the Island. We will be back 🌴😎💕

fun vacation

The property was just as expected. Met wonderful people and had a great time! The only down side would be there weren't enough garbage bags, twisty ties would have been nice, there wasn't toilet paper for a week and no aluminum foil. I would go back though.

Wonderful Mini Getaway!

The Snook Suite was such a great place for our mini "just the two of us" getaway! The unit had everything we needed. We loved access to the kayaks and canoe and used them daily to go fishing. Matlacha is an adorable, quiet town- just perfect for us. Communication was top notch and Charity is spectacular! She took wonderful care of us and when an issued arose with the plumbing she had it fixed before we could blink! Thank you for everything! We will be back!

Except we had to remove all bedding and get our own because of the flowery scent which killed my allergies. Also the air freshener. Some people can not take scented stuff.

Matlacha - Hidden Gem

The Fisherman's Paradise was everything we were looking for and more! Clean, quiet, with easy access to the cool town of Matlacha. The property manager was a text or phone call away and was prompt in his reply. All the cool are galleries and shops were within walking distance. An outstanding ice cream shop was right around the corner. Kayak tours were readily available and something I'm sure everyone can enjoy. While we did need to drive to get time on the beach, they were not far away. The local food is fantastic and plenty to choose from most featuring live music. This is "old time" Florida at it's finest. We had a wonderful stay and will definitely be back.

Family Affair

Place is great! Finding actual property manager contact info difficult. When strong rain/thunderstorm, must drive through flooded street snd park in flooded designated parking area but can get to unit unless walking through 1-3” of water. Now, after Hurricane Ian - Wouldn’t be surprised if unit not destroyed - understand bridge now out and unit would be unreachable if remains anyway.

Snook Suite is a great place to stay! A million times better than a hotel!

I arrived after Midnight and felt perfectly safe. Checkin was easy. We experienced no problems. The outside and inside lights were on, and the a/c was at a comfortable setting. The place was much larger than I expected! The kitchen was well stocked. I was glad there were beach towels because I had forgotten ours. The front door is covered which was great for when it rained. The area was really quiet and the neighborhood is old Florida. Lots of cute shops close by. We saw other guests by the water but we never heard anyone. We really enjoyed our stay and will stay here again when needed.

Cute suite and convenient

Suite was functional and located close to shops. Waterfront dock a plus. The suite was clean and well stocked with towels and kitchen basics. I would only recommend that the outlets be checked as they had intermittent power and one of the AC units should be serviced or replaced since it had a hard time keeping up. Overall pleasant stay.
