About

You’re right in the heart of the Island and right on the water in this 2,000 square foot, four-bedroom waterfront home. It sleeps eight, with one king bed, two queens, two twins and two bathrooms. It also comes with a two-car garage.

The interior was furnished under the theory that there’s no such thing as too much style or comfort. The rooms are tastefully decorated with seashells, lush ferns, and colorful fabrics to create an easygoing coastal feel. Sliding glass doors beneath arched windows brighten the space with natural light.

The deluxe modern kitchen features pendant lighting and barstools along the granite countertop. It comes equipped with all the modern appliances and cookware you need to prepare everything from a sit-down family dinner to a tray of cocktails to serve guests on the lanai.

The palatial master suite contains a shoji screen and television, and it opens up to the lanai, cooling you with fragrant breezes and sending you to sleep to the sound of wind-rustled palm trees. The ensuite bathroom features a bathtub beside a shuttered arched window with a garden view. The other bedrooms are every bit as inviting, with stylish décor and plenty of closet and drawer space.

The lanai overlooks a tranquil waterway lined with palm trees, and it faces south for a full day of sun as you swim in the heated pool. You’ve also got a gas grill, so the family barbeque chef will work overtime filling orders for all the poolside lunches you enjoy on the shaded table. After lunch, head down to your private dock and take out your boat or just lie back on a sun lounger watching for a passing dolphin or manatee.

No comfort or convenience is overlooked in this house. You’ve got air conditioning and heating, ceiling fans, free-wi-fi, cable, linens, towels and a washer and dryer. You’ve also got bicycles to explore the Island, along with beach essentials like beach towels, beach chairs, cooler and umbrella.

One of Marco Island’s most popular family attractions, Mackle Park, is just a short walk from the house. It’s filled with covered basketball courts, volleyball, shuffleboard, tetherball, a soccer field, and for the younger kids, a splashpad and an enormous jungle gym in a pirate ship-themed playground. Inside the community center, you’ll find two billiards tables, ping-pong and foosball tables and a large gymnastics area. There’s even a lake where you can take a scenic walk around.

So come experience your own private waterfront retreat.

This was a beautiful well laid out property which was very clean and well equipped. It had everything we could possibly need. Lovely outside areas around the pool which is south facing so gets sun all day and great to watch the beautiful sunsets in the evening. We all thoroughly enjoyed our stay here making good use of fishing rods to catch catfish off the dock and used the bikes to go out cycling. I would recommend this house for a vacation rental.

Great house-great location.
Wax ring in master bath needs some work as does the inside of the shower door needs a good scrub down.
The grill needs a good cleaning also--but I'm might be a little obsessive compulsive!

Great location and wonderful property. Only downgraded condition and cleanliness due to outside amenities. The dock needs some maintenance due to splintering boards and the pool area was littered with plant and lizard droppings. Don’t mean to complain, just notes to the management and owners to make it even better! Wonderful wildlife sightings from the property. The park across the street was a highlight for activities and exercise. Great farmers market on Wednesdays! You can’t go wrong with this place. MIVP is superior with service and response.

A lot of rentals have out-dated photos. The place looks nice online, but when you get there, everything is a little run-down. That is not the case here. The place is beautiful with high-quality furniture and construction so you really feel comfortable and at home. The garage is excellent, the lanai and seamless connection between inside and outside is fantastic. The pool is lovely. The garage has a lot of extras to help with a beach trip - cooler, chairs, umbrella, etc. The bikes are a little rickety, but work for maybe 3 to ride around or to the beach and back at a comfortable, chill pace. The Wednesday Farmer's Market is across the street, and is a MUST.

We had a great stay at 1279 Balboa Court. The property was nicely equipped and the pool was fantastic! If you're looking to walk to the beach, it's a bit too far to tote beach chairs, etc. The bikes that are available make it doable. However, if you're bringing tons of stuff, I recommend that you drive. We did have a few minor issues during our stay, but they were all handled promptly. Overall, I definitely recommend this property and the agency. We'll be back!

We love Marco Island. This is our second trip this year, would have been 3 if not for lockdowns. The property was very elegant. We fished, we ate well, enjoyed many rounds of miniature golf and had the opportunity to make memories with our grandson. Thanks to all at Marco Island Vacation Properties, you are the best. Hope to see you soon.

I loved having a dock and a safe place to keep my boat in the water too. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

We had a wonderful last minute stay in this home. The rental company was great to work with in getting us set up quickly. The home is in a great location to enjoy all that Marco Island has to offer. We enjoyed the pool area and the views into the canal where we could see boats and dolphins. The home is set up very nicely with everything you need. We will definitely return to stay!

Balboa court is pleasant, light and airy and in a great location for Mackle Park. The bikes meant we could cycle to the park with ease (literally just across the road). The home was clean and well equipped and the bed was comfortable. A couple of things to note if you are considering renting - there is a very noisy air con unit on the outside of the next door property which runs day and night. It is very close to the master bedroom and to the pool. The canal is not a wide one so neighbouring properties feel close. There is a home each side and directly across the canal which means privacy is restricted. We had problems with the pool which didn’t reach temperature until our last day which was disappointing. The lanai is very spacious and the seating area is lovely. However, there are only two loungers (which was fine for us) and no cushions for them. The home faces south so receives full sun all day and also has the benefit of some amazing sunsets. Marco Island vacation properties (Andrew) were fantastic to work with and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them. We will definitely use them again as our first choice if we return to Marco. We have used other rental companies before but these are by far the best.

We absolutely love our stay at this home. We found the home to be very nicely decorated and very clean. It felt like a home not a rental. Beds were comfortable & the pool & lanai were great. We highly recommend this home for your stay in Marco. Its a quick drive to the South Beach access & parking. Close to grocery stores & restaurants. Its also just across the street from Mackle Park, which has a walking path around a lake. We walked that every day it wasnt raining. Loved being on the canal and the location was very central to everything.

This is our 5th annual rental from Andrew and his team, but our first time at this home. The house was very clean, comfortable and well appointed throughout! We enjoyed the brightness and open feeling which added to our experience. The location was great and very close to one of Marco Island's treasures, Mackle Park. Kudos to the owners and the rental agency team. We will be back to this home.

We arrived on Marco Island late night after a long flight from Germany and stopped by Marco Island Vacation Properties to pick up key for home. Easy find for rental home as everything on Marco is just 10 minutes away! Upon entering the home we were very pleased. Above all, the home was very clean and well maintained.Home was more than spacious for two couples. The floor plan of the home is excellent, especially if you have more than one couple or family since the master bedroom is on one side and the other two on the other side. This provides privacy for everyone. We thoroughly enjoyed the pool area daily and the very comfortable furniture and Weber grill. House sits close to the end of the canal so we had a great water view over pool and patio.The home is very well equipped. Furniture was up to date, very well decorated home. Kitchen was very nice with everything we needed to get us from morning till midnight! We were here for 20 nights and after the first day it really felt like home! This home is just what we needed to recharge our batteries! Relaxing, comfortable, and truly enjoyable. It was everything we could have wanted! Honestly, nothing felt used about this house. Everything about this home was top notch and the owners should be commended on a lovely home! We rented the house thru Marco Island Vacation Properties a family owned agency. Andrew, one of the family owners is tremendous and very easy to work with. His response time from when we booked the home until we arrived and throughout our stay was immediate. We highly recommend leasing from Marco Island Vacation Properties. All in all, we would love to come back and enjoy this home again!
