The Tarpon Suite is charming and we enjoyed our stay. Our only challenge was a problematic lock box. We came in after dark and luckily a neighbor helped us get into our unit. Matlacha is a hoot and the food at The Blue Dog was great!

Winter break from Vermont

Had never been to Matlacha or SW Florida. We really liked the neighborhood. Low key and fun. We had the entire complex to ourselves for several days, so the quiet was much appreciated. Pine island was lovely. Matlacha was centrally located for exploring both north and south.

Fisherman’s Paradise…really!

We love this place. It was our second stay here. It’s a great location close to great fishing. They have kayaks to rent and you can hang outside on the common patio/deck when you get back. We plan on coming back to this well-appointed, clean and attractive little haven. Thank you for a wonderful two weeks!

Our Stay in Matlacha

It was perfect for my daughter and I. I admit we were out more than we were there. I was surprised at all the growth before and after Matlacha. The chairs on the deck were great for sunset watching.

Our first aVisit to Matlacha

Loved our stay! Everything was as described. Quaint, quiet place with beautiful sunsets. We will return. We stayed in the Tarpon Suite and really enjoyed it. Very close proximity to restaurants and shops. Marco, Martina, Stephanie and Marlene were extremely responsive if we had a question... One suggestion would be to update the guide books for each room, and include a luggage rack for the Unit. Again, really enjoyed our stay here!

Love Matlacha!

The area is clearly hurting having been hit with three recent hurricanes. We like this area because it is close to our son’s house. We also like that so many properties are on the water. We had beautiful sunsets each night of our stay and the dock had nice chairs for all of us to sit and watch. Would definitely stay here again. My only comment is the ceilings are low and I’m a bit claustrophobic so I was happy to sit outside most of the time. Bring your own shampoo and conditioner.

R & R in Matlacha

Quiet suite right at the water. Great for those who love fishing! Walk out your door and cast your line anytime of the day or night. My husband cooked up his fresh catch in the kitchen and grilled steaks on the gas grill just outside the suite on the deck. Marcus was friendly and came by to introduce himself & chat. Place was clean, bed comfortable. We hope to visit Tarpon Suite again! Sherry & Brian

GREAT LOCATION!

With most everything in walking distance, other than a small grocery, this is a great place to unwind and relax and take it easy. Very clean and tidy. The only downside is that the other residents that came in near the last days were not very respectful of our privacy by sitting in front of our windows till late in the evening which made for noise and lack of privacy. Other than that it was a great stay.
