About this property
🛥️ 👀 Boat Watchers Paradise ☀️ w\ a Side of Dolphins🐬
Newly renovated 1 bed 1 bath 800+ sq feet condo + huge queen size and mega comfy sleeper sofa located inside the gated community Riverside Club. This condo boasts one of Marcos best views. If you enjoy watching boats and yachts of all sizes with the regular bonus of dolphins frolicking about you’ll love this unit, (binoculars provided for close ups.) Many condos on Marco Island squeeze 2 bed 2 bath in the same sq footage. This layout provides you with a very comfortable and open living space so you will not feel cramped. We also provide a workspace for those who need to stay connected, high speed wifi, 2 monitors, comfortable office chair and a desk that can be raised or lowered with the push of a button. If you prefer raise it up to make it a standing desk. The work station has been repositioned near the sliding doors so you can enjoy the view while you work. I’d challenge you to find a better view from a work station 🧑💻🐬🛥🌴🌊☀️. The master has a king size bed with a brand new and very comfortable mattress. Bosch washer dryer combo located in one of the 2 bedroom closets.
You’ll also no doubt enjoy how wonderfully walkable this unit is. Walk to shops, bars, restaurants and rental locations.
Hop skip and a jump (5 min and under walk) - The Snook Inn - waterside, good eats and live music all day. - Collier House - Old Marco Pub - Island Bike Shop - rent bikes, electric bikes, motorized scooters, golf karts and more. - Kay’s On The Beach Boutique - Salon Marco - Le Bee Fish Restaurant - Cafe De Marco - Bistro Soleil - Smith House Restaurant and Tavern - great for breakfast - The Boardroom Tavern - live music daily 6-9pm. Great music venue. Open mic night on Tuesdays is our favorite. - Zaza Mexican Kitchen - Dolphin Cove Rentals - rent boats and jet skis - Scuba Marco - rental and instructional classes
Couple more hops and a skip ( .5 miles ~) Rose Marina where you’ll find some great boat charters like - Key West Express - travels from Marco to Key West almost daily - Marco Island Princess - Black Pearl Pirate Ship - awesome for kids during the day or take the fun sunset cruise in the evening. - Dolphin Tiki Bar & Grill - great little tiki bar overlooking the water.
Walk a little further but still no more than 1 mile and it’s just too much to list. Just a 5 minute drive to public beach parking. Two nice beach chairs provided, plenty of beach towels, sand toys and a beach cart.

Our host was very responsive. The condo was clean and well equipped, nice pool and hot tub. The area is close to oldtown Marco easy to walk to restaurants.
This condo was situated perfectly! The view was outstanding, we spent time on the balcony watching the pool, the bay, and the marina. We saw dolphins! We liked the comfy rocking chairs and outdoor couch (better than had it been table with chairs). It is on second floor with a close elevator and stairs were not far away either. The property is maintained beautifully. We had so many things within easy walking distance too. Our favorites included the Dolphin Tiki and Snook Inn but there were so many others as well. Walking felt very safe. The pool was lovely and we enjoyed the temperature. It was nice that you could fish off the dock but you do have to go to the a tax collector behind the Publix to get a temporary license to fish. The Pelican Marina was so convenient for ice, drinks (it has a cute little bar) and bait. The staff was super nice as was the staff at the condo. We cooked breakfast at the condo and enjoyed brewed coffee although there was also a pod machine if that’s your thing. The furniture was very comfortable and the TV was good as well. Oh, and the shower was heavenly too. Loved our time spent here.
Great amenities within the condo. Some beach equipment there, so no need to lug/purchase your own! Outdoor view right in front of the pool and near the dock! Very clean space. Readily available parking. Would visit again.
This condo was clean, spacious, had everything we needed and has the best view from the balcony. It’s spacious and nicely decorated. We enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again.

Dishwasher didn’t work from the time we arrived made the place smell like fish . Had to have the handyman out 2 times and he did our dishes for us at one point which I thought was thoughtful but gross so had to hand wash everything on top of hand washing our dishes for the week .The place had potential . Also not the cleanest . No Reduction in the rental offered at all which would have stopped me from posting a bad review altogether. We viewed a rental 2 floors up whia
Loved our stay here - the apartment was spacious and immaculate, with everything we needed. Saw dolphins from the balcony at least once every day, and enjoyed the views. Definitely recommend staying here!
Nice and clean, good water views, close to everything
This is a well done condo. It was clean and close to everything, well stocked and thought out, and host was very responsive without being intrusive. Great stay here and highly recommend! Thanks for letting us stay!
Updated condo that checked all of the boxes for my wife and I, along with our two young children. Views are second to none and the pool/hot tub area was great. Would highly recommend this property and will definitely stay here again in the future.
We cannot say enough good things about our stay! Everything was extremely clean & the location was wonderful! We loved the proximity to the pool & the property is beautiful! The condo was stocked extremely well with plenty of beach accessories, towels, kitchen necessities, etc! We ended up extending our stay another night because we loved it so much! We cannot wait to go back and will not hesitate to stay here again!
Beautiful view-waterway, boats and did see some dolphins. The place was roomy, cute and comfy. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub too! Anytime we messaged the owner, he would respond immediately. Marco Island was gorgeous and we will definitely consider coming again and staying here.
Condo is in a great location about 10 minutes drive to both South Beach and Tigertale Beach. Condo also had all the beach necessities (beach cart, towels, toys for the kids, umbrella, beach chairs) that were needed.
Would highly recommend
Beautifully appointed unit with great views! Enjoyed eating breakfast on the lanai each day and watching the boat activity! Dolphins made an appearance in late afternoon and evening! Loved the quiet location and enjoyed swimming in the pool! Very relaxing and restful unit with great views! Highly recommend!
