This home is beautiful, well cared for, and well-appointed in every way. The kitchen has every appliance imaginable. The house is located in a quiet portion of the island and it is easy to get everywhere. The layout is ideal for families or for adult couples as there are two master suites plus two additional bedrooms and 4 baths. There are multiple seating areas, both inside and out, so plenty of room to spread out. The host is easy to deal with and very responsive. We are hoping to stay there again.

John and Janet's home was absolutely beautiful. 10 out of 10 would recommend! It was large enough for our group to spread out and feel comfortable. If you enjoy privacy and nature this is the place for you. The private pool, sun deck and dock were all great. We fished every evening and we each caught something. We seen a small pod of dolphins, a sting ray, a juvenile shark, a large variety of smaller fish all from the dock. The under water fishing lights were amazing at night, there's some big ones that come in so be prepared of that's your thing! Overall this home was a huge hit and we plan to return for another family vacation. The only suggestion I would have is, to replace some of the beach equipment. While there was plenty there to use some of the chairs and umbrellas were non functional. And maybe provide a canopy for the beach (instead of umbrellas) might be a nice touch when going to the beach with a large group. Extras that we weren't expecting:-fully stocked kitchen/every small appliance you can think of-plenty of bathroom towels and plenty of pool/beach towels, I mean cupboards full which was great for our large group-pool toys for the kiddos -a basket full of sunblock and after sun lotion on the back patio-board games and puzzles-extra fridge in the garage which definitely came in handy-four bikes available for use (I would maybe add two more for larger groups so everyone can enjoy if they want to)

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.

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!!!

Beautiful Home

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.

Fabulous Location

This home is truly amazing. The view of the wide open canal provided endless entertainment with manatees, dolphins and even an alligator swimming by! Fishing off the large dock was fun! The home is very tastefully decorated and everything was super clean and very comfortable. There was one tiny negative that had nothing to do with the home...that was the salt marsh mosquitos! They were plentiful so make sure you have good bug spray! We loved staying here and have already reserved again for next year! My family can't wait for next summer to get back to this beautiful home.

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!

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.

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!!!

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!

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.

About the host

Hosted by John Mastas

Host profile image

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.
