Great place to stay

Apataki Hideaway was the perfect retreat for my wife,my grandson and me. The house was spotless, the kitchen was well stocked with cookware, dishes, and utensils, and there was a nice gas grill. The pool was a great place to relax after a morning fishing the Everglades, which is only a few miles away. TVs in every bedroom and both living rooms plus a Wii that my grandson had me playing with him. We have stayed in a few VRBO rentals around Florida and this was my wife’s favorite. The canal out back was scenic and we did have a manatee cow and calf visit one afternoon but not much for fishing. Pretty sure if a return trip to Marco Island is in our future this will be our rental again. Loved the house and the Island and it was convenient to a couple of public golf courses just off the island. Two thumbs up

Great stay!

We recently spent a week at the house. It was perfect for all six of us. The house was clean and very well equipped. They have everything you could possibly want to use for the beach, which we really appreciated. The pool area was fantastic, especially for morning coffee and evening drinks & games. I highly recommend!

Lovely spot on Marco

This house is very well-equipped, very clean, and updated in many areas, and the location and view out back is really fine. The only thing I would have wished for are firmer beds. They are in good shape, they are just softer than we prefer. But some people like that. I would recommend this property to anyone.
