Relax or swim. Swim or relax. These are just two of the tough choices you'll be forced to make on this screened in lanai.
Immediately upon entering, the comfortable indoor area flows seamlessly into the Florida lanai life.
The very spacious master bedroom is located on the opposite end of the house as the second and third bedrooms.
The elegant yet comfortable main gathering area is spacious enough for a happy hour gathering or a large family dinner
The conveniently-located kitchen features granite counter tops, new appliances, and more dishware and gadgets than your kitchen at home.

About this property

2 Blks to Beach (and JW) w/Gear Provided! Bright, Spacious & Dog Friendly w/ Pool & WiFi

Location, Location, Location!!! Come experience your own private oasis just two blocks from the beach and a half mile from the JW Marriott. Whether you are on vacation or here for a conference, this house is ideal for the couple who wants space and privacy; 2-3 couples traveling together who love the idea of cooking meals and hanging poolside, or a multi-generational getaway where grandparents, parents and their children can live, sleep and play under one roof. And did I mention, we’re dog friendly! (Pet fee required: $25/night/dog; max 2)

This 1,761 sq ft house has three bedrooms and sleeps six with:

- King bed in the master bedroom, large sectional sofa, full ensuite bath, walk-in closet, and attached office area with sink
- 2 twin beds in the front bedroom
- King bed in the back bedroom off the pool
- 2 full bathrooms
- 2 car garage with beach chairs, umbrella, beach carts and toys.
-Pool (complimentary heat provided Nov. 20-Apr. 30; pool heat offered for a fee May 1-Nov. 19. Pool temp may vary due to weather conditions.)
- Hi-speed internet: 400mbps download
- Premium cable package with HBO Max, Showtime & Starz
- Screened-in lanai
- Office Space

Relax poolside in one of the lounge chairs while reading a book or surfing the internet with a blazing fast internet connection. Speaking of which, if you're staying in the house because of conference at the Marriott, there is a dedicated office space where you can shut the door and get some work done while the rest of your family and friends enjoy themselves. When you get hungry, cook out on the gas grill in the shaded area of the lanai, surrounded by potted plants and native shrubs and foliage. When you come back inside, there is plenty of seating to choose from: at the bar overlooking the kitchen, the glass dining room table, which has seating for six or in the living room that boasts a couch, two swivel chairs and two swivel recliners. And if it should happen to rain (which it never does when you’re on vacation in Marco Island ;-), both the living room and master bedroom have the premium HDTV package with every movie channel Comcast offers. There’s also a DVD player in the living room so don’t leave home without bringing your favorite movies from high school and telling the younger generation how easy they have it growing up.

The spacious interior has been tastefully updated with stylish furnishings and artwork that evoke a refined beach getaway feel. The large sliding glass doors off the dining room can be opened (just make sure to turn off the AC) so you bring the outside in and enjoy the warm gulf shore breezes island life offers. The kitchen, with recessed lighting, is stocked with all of the comforts a chef could want: coffee maker AND a Keurig machine, a blender, toaster, oh and did we mention the all new appliances? The bar area off the kitchen is a great place to congregate, make and sip cocktails and watch the aspiring Top Chefs in the family whip up the latest gourmet food trend. It’s also a great place to put out food, snacks and beverages or look out at the picturesque view of the pool and lanai.

In the garage, you will find just about everything you need for the beach, including umbrellas, beach chairs, toys, floats and coolers. That beach equipment will get ample use because it’s only a 0.3 mile walk to the public beach access point, which takes you to Paradise Coast and its warm sands, turquoise waters and endless array of water sports.

Since you are just a half a mile from the JW Marriott, you can enjoy its world famous spa as well as its 10 bars and restaurants, without having to pay four figures/night for one hotel room. Also close by is a miniature golf course, the Marco Walk Plaza which boasts some of the Island’s best restaurants as well as boutiques and ice cream across from which is a 7-11 if you need to fill up on gas or get some snacks.

Not 2 blocks to the beach. Algae on the wall in the pool. Asked to clean towels and strip beds and wash before 10 am departure by host. Lock to the pool was broken. Owner did offer to have it fixed. Furniture was dated

Best VRBO rented
Booked this place for a stay in Florida with our moms and our Chihuahua. Location was great. Pool was amazing. We were there during a full moon and it totally lit up the pool area. Let just say I was in my happy place. Nice they recycle and they collect garbage 2x week. We walked to a couple of nice restaurants. Living room was comfortable. Had a nice kitchen with all the amenities and dining table outside. Looked like a nice grill, we just didn't use it. Would definitely love to be able to go back.

Wonderful Stay
People I stayed here with a friend and her daughter. It was clean and comfortable. The wagon, umbrella and beach chairs were greatly appreciated for the short walk to the beach. The covered patio was a nice way to enjoy the outside during the rain. Texan emails were answered promptly. Checking in and out was so easy. I would highly recommend this property.

Love the location. All was as listed. All restaurants were very close. This for us was a laid back getaway and that was exactly what we needed. Beautiful pool and beautiful neighborhood. I would like to suggest that as seniors that you provide safety handles in the showers. Otherwise , we loved the house.

Marco Island Home
Disappointed with house. Pool had algae even though they say a pool service is done weekly. Master bathroom shower head dirty old. House has not been upgraded since the 70's. Kitchen cabinets look like original from when the house was built in the 1970's. Appliances were new. Bedrooms were adequate. We left early as soon as our condo was finished being painted. It is not 2 blocks from the beach more like 5 blocks

Perfect place to explore Marco Island and the surrounding area
We stayed in this house with my two children (aged 2 and 5), my wife and my parents. The house is very nice and clean. It has a good layout of rooms for 6 people including children. In some places you can tell it's a bit old, but that had no effect on our stay. The private pool, the proximity to the beach and the barbecue made our stay perfect. The property manager responded immediately to a problem with the air conditioning and help was there in less than 30 minutes. The garage has lots of pool and beach equipment for general use. We can only recommend this house.

Great place to stay!
The house is the cleanest one I've ever booked, it is well-furnished and comfortable. the location was great for us, within walking distance of the public beach and reasonably close to restaurants and grocery stores. The pool and backyard are great for small activities and family time. The one complaint I have is that the AC doesn't really cool during the day, I could feel it working but the temperature kept rising regardless of what you set the thermostat to, luckily the ceiling fans helped keep it cool. Overall a great stay, and we're thinking of repeating it. Most definitely recommend

The pictures are not accurate
My Husband and I were so disappointed in this house, it was not worth the money at all. The pool was missing half the ladder in the deep end( it was not a functional ladder)the door going out to the pool wouldn’t lock and the beds were so uncomfortable. Also the thermostat was not working properly it did not go under 80°. The owner needs to do some serious maintenance on this house. It should not be on VRBO until all this is taken care of.

Awesome location for a beach vacation. Sand toys, umbrella, wagon, chairs and coolers all at the house. We did bring our own soft bag cooler from home to hold drinks and food to save space in the wagon for chairs and umbrellas. 20-30 minutes away from other fun things such as Naples Zoo, Paddle Marco and yummy local restaurants. Pool was great to have, but had to be very cautious with noise, which was hard with little kids. The noise ordinance in Marco Island is highly enforced so if kiddos are wishing to play loud in the pool, I would save that for a beach. Property owner is fantastic to work with! Marco Island brewery and Publix grocery store were minutes away, Isle of Capri has an awesome waterfront restaurant and the beach is beautiful!

Disappointed
BEWARE! I would not recommend this house to anyone with children. The neighbor woman was extremely rude and yelled at our 3 little girls through her window to “SHUTUP” while playing in the pool at 6 pm. She threatened to call the police if they didn’t be quiet. The manager text me that we would be responsible to pay the citation if the police came. This put a real damper on our outside pool activities during our vacation. There is a 24 hour noise ordinance on Marco island, but 3 little girls having fun was definitely not beyond what was allowed. Noticed too late in the reviews that others had had the same problems with this neighbor..Best part of the house was that it was easy walking distance to the beautiful beach. Would not stay here again!

Great times on Loyalty Ave
We stayed at 916 Loyalty this year after missing last year due to Covid. What a great return. The location is perfect for us. Easy walk to the beach, restaurants, farmers market and shopping. Great pool that is nice and warm on the few cold days. A Weber grill that works to perfection. And Mark, Sara and ITrip made all the logistics very easy. The fact that the property is also pet friendly was a big plus for us too.

Perfect Family Vacation!!
This was a perfect vacation home for our family of 5, including three teenagers. The house was exactly as described on the VRBO listing. The pool area was very nice. All of the beach/pool gear and coolers, including the wagon to haul it all was a very nice touch. We only had a 5 minute walk to the beach. Cooking was a breeze with all the appliances and cookware.
