Great place
Clean and modern, plenty of supplies and especially towels. So quiet after 9 pm, slept wonderfully. The canal access allowed us to rent a boat for the week tied up out front. The only complaint would be that the bicycles are unusable. This neighborhood is wonderful for bikes, to and from the restaurants.

Good Stay!
Really enjoyed our stay. The property was clean and almost everything as advertized. Nice view of the Marina out back. Was nice to have the 65" large screen TV in the living room. It's surprising how many places have 40-50 inch TV's as they don't cost that much. Normally we go on vacation to be outside and dont use the TV's much but it rained all day one day and it came in nice! It appears a previous guest may have broken the coffee pot so we used the Kurig machine instead. We would stay there again!

DO NOT, I REPEAT DO NOT STAY HERE!!!
There were only 2 bad reviews out of 20 when I looked. Those 2 were spot on!!! Baseboards and corners were filthy! Small gnat like bugs were coming out of the drains in kitchen and bathrooms. Outside balcony was dirty, full of cobwebs and had a rug too big for the space curled up so it could be easily tripped on. All the rugs inside were worn and need replaced! The 2nd bedroom STILL smells like cat urine. The shower in the master bathroom had no water pressure and would not stay hot. I was told someone would come by to look at it and no one ever showed up. Don't get fooled by the view!!!! This place is a wreck!

A nice location on the water
We enjoyed the porch and being on the water. It was super easy getting our boat launched and at the dock. The appliances and kitchen gear were excellent. Needs a pest treatment and a refresh of the a/c to help with mustiness. Very nice to walk to dinner and live music, and neighbors were very friendly!

Harry Houdini would have Trouble Breaking Into This Lock
OK, there are some real b for this place but we must discuss the 3,000 pound elephant outside the front door first. That elephant is the lock on the door and the confusing directions for the entry code. We were assigned a 10 digit code with the instructions "keypad lock on the door only, do not use elock code." I have no idea what the elock code is, neither did my friend. Anyway, the 10 digit code NEVER worked, my wife called and said that there appears to instructions to only use the last four-digits of the 10-digit code. That did not work, after several calls we were given a code to a lock box, and voila, we have three keys - but none of them work. Several calls further and we were told a maintenance man would be there in 20 minutes, never came during our stay. We had to get a maintenance man from the marina to come over and he was able to use a totally different code we were given (only 4 digits), jiggle the lock numerous times and finally with the key open the door. We had to go out a back door the rest of our stay, as the lock on the front door never worked while we were there. We were given a $100 credit over the phone, we'll see if it materializes. Now the rest, its an old (1978) Jim Walter home thathas been refurbrished. Looks nice inside, there is a screened porch, well stocked inside, plenty of towels, toilet paper, even tissues. There are kayaks, we never used as we were there to fish and Walker's Marine is right out back, you can walk over there, which we did. Directions on garbage day were wrong, its not Tuesday, - its Thursday. Strange AC set up, one in living room had an error code with no explanation and never worked. If you are coming to fish, it's perfect, otherwise, watch out for that door and confusing code and no screen will stop the no-see-ums!.

Definitely not worth the price
We stayed at this property for a family vacation. We are a family of 6 with kids ages: 14, 12,4, and 2. We arrived at the property after 10 hours on the road with a car full of kiddos and the entry door code that was sent via email day of for check in was invalid. Had to call Vacasa to have them send a new code, which didn’t work, then have a the lock box code to have a key to manually unlock the door to find the lock on the door spinning and never engaged the lock. I expressed I felt very uneasy about this check in with the representative on the phone. It felt very sketchy. The representative was able to get the property management company on the phone and a working door code was finally given after about 45 minutes in the heat with children who were ready to get out of the car. We get inside you can tell it’s an old building but has been remodeled and was pretty decent, not decent enough for what I paid to stay there but decent. We explore the apartment and start settling in claiming beds and we find the bedroom with the single queen bed to reek of straight cat urine. It was absolutely awful! I was furious. I called Vacasa back to express my concern and frustration they ensured me the property management would call me with in the hour and come out to assess the property. Never received a call, text, email, or visit. I could not spend my entire vacation fighting about this questionable choice of stay so unfortunately we just kept the door shut and were unable to use an entire room and bed that we paid for. My oldest kids had to sleep on the couch in the living room and my husband, myself, and the little ones slept in the bedroom with the double beds. The community it’s self was cute but a hit or miss on the houses. A lot of houses were run down and the house at the beginning of East Palm Ave had 4 broke down boats in the yard, numerous broken down vehicles, one up on a tire Jack and others with their hoods open and a refrigerator in the yard to top it off. Not what you would expect to be staying a few houses down from while away on vacation and definitely not what I expect for the amount of money I paid for this unit. My brother rented a house with a pool in the city of Marco for the SAME price I paid to stay in this semi run down village. Would I stay here again? No way. Definitely not worth the money or the troubles!

Nice big place but needs updates
This was a nice big upper unit but the bathrooms were VERY old and in need of upgrades. The hallway bathroom sink and tub both had standing water in them when we arrived and were very slow to drain. The ceilings and corners of the shower stall were stained. The bathrooms were clean but very old looking. The email we received on the day of arrival gave an incorrect code for the door lock and, after several texts, gave us another incorrect door code. If it wasn't for an unlocked back slider we would not have gained entry to the unit until 6:45pm when the local management called with the correct code. Check in time was supposed to be 4pm.

Great Location, Superb Property!
From the moment we arrived we were impressed with the cleanliness & feel of the home. Pics can deceive with rentals but this home was better than the photos… fresh, clean & nice. The kitchen was stocked well (some older reviews said it wasn’t so I wanted to give an update) We had a small issue with one A/C & we responded to immediately & had good communication & resolve from management & even the (very nice) owners! We rented mopeds & a scoot coupe go-car to get around the island & the drive to/from Goodland was perfect!! If we had any suggestion for future it would be to make at least one bed in the master a Queen. I know they are maximizing sleeping capacity but you could still have 2 beds with one queen & one full. … just saying that a whole week in a full for 2 adults is a bit cramped. However, this would not deter us from staying & the 2nd bedroom does have a queen. The amenities inside and outside far make up for this small drawback. There are kayaks and boats & seating and a fire pit and a grill … the list goes on! ;) We will book this property again in the future!! Thank you so much.

Great space
This property is a great space to spread out and have enough room for everyone. Outdoor porch and grill are very nice. Great couch and tv area and tables for dinners. If you are a boater it’s definitely the place to be. Kitchen could use updating (cabinet interiors all smell moldy and dishwasher is falling forward when opening) and some of the basics for cooking / cleaning were missing, but overall a fantastic property if you don’t need to be right on the beach and want a little or space for everyone.

Quaint little fishing village
This house/property is amazing! Located right on the canal with easy navigation to the main channel. A short paddle away, we were kayaking with the dolphins! There are 2 marinas in Goodland. We rented a skiff and were able to explore the ten thousand islands area. Great beaches, shelling, and fishing! The house is decorated in a costal theme, is updated, well stocked, and feels like home. The screen porch is great in the morning and evening for relaxing. You can watch pelicans and herons in the canal, or go fishing right from the dock.. We are already talking about coming back!!! Keep in mind that this is a quiet little fishing village, untouched by the big developers. There are no stores or gas stations in town, only a couple restaurants/bars. This is the place for you if you are looking to stay away from the fancy Marco Island commercialism, but have easy access to it.

Goodland Getaway
Pretty happy with this rental. The best part is the screened deck. We enjoyed coffee there every morning and drinks every evening. Took the kayaks out one day and rode the bikes on another. The one bike wasn't quite road worthy but when riding around Goodland you go slow and easy so no problem. You're so close to Marco Island and Naples we enjoyed exploring those areas too. The kitchen is well stocked and there are plenty of bath towels. The beds are comfy but I could have used a bit softer pillow. The bathrooms are good but one is a bit small. That's ok. The neighborhood is quiet at night and the birds singning in the morning are lovely. Full Disclosure: it is across from a marina which had people busy getting boats out of storage so you'll hear the motors and the "beep, beep, beep" of the backing up motion. We still loved it though and would recommend this to friends.

Great getaway!
My family really enjoyed the location for convenient boating and access to the Ten Thousand Islands area. The apartment was clean & very functional. Access was very easy, yet also felt safe. Our 24’9” boat fit fine on the dock and I liked having boat whips to use. The easy to use boat ramp was within easy walking distance. The neighboring Marin provided ice, bait & fuel. The local seafood restaurants are good enough to be destinations in their own right. I would definitely consider Goodland and this condo for another family getaway.
