Welcome to our beautiful Journey's End home, the ultimate Marco Island vacation retreat. Journey's End is a stunning, four bedroom +, four bath 3484 sq ft villa that will comfortably sleep 2 - 12, located in the very desirable south end of world renowned Marco Island. Journey's End is our family's second home and given that we live in Miami, we are blessed to be able to spend a great deal of time there. Because we are there so often, we have elevated the home to the highest possible standards with respect to comfort, quality and range of amenities. Fully renovated and professionally decorated with the finest materials available, including Italian Carrara Marble in the sumptuous master bath, Brazilian Marble on the floors and Turkish Travertine in all of our expansive outdoor living areas. Our Journey's End home features a spacious, fully equipped island kitchen with luxurious stainless steel appliances including a 35 cubic foot refrigerator/freezer with ice and water in the door, convection oven and a large over the range microwave. The counters are covered with an exotic Brazilian granite that adds a touch of natural beauty to this slice of paradise.
Upstairs, the large master bedroom is appointed with a king sized luxury bed, a 50 inch Samsung Smart TV and 600 thread count Egyptian cotton sheets. We also have plentiful memory foam pillows for those that need extra pillows for their sleeping comfort. The floors are covered with an exotic Brazilian bamboo and you'll be happy to see that there are his and hers California style closets that can easily accomodate all of your clothing.This bedroom also boasts an opulent ensuite master bathroom, outfitted with a double sink vanity, a large jetted tub that is big enough for two and a frameless glass enclosed Italian marble shower. Our master bath is stocked with multiple, thick, ultra soft towels along with a hair dryer. Step through the French doors in the master bedroom onto the second floor 700 sq ft deck that overlooks one of Marco Island's lovely waterways. Picture yourself sitting outside of your bedroom at the end of a fun filled day toasting the moon and stars with a glass of wine and it will be so. This large, elevated deck has a full seating group on one end with a 6 seat table on the other end for having meals alfresco.
On the other side of our home's upstairs level, we have two additional bedrooms. The first, is appointed with twin beds, a large California style closet, Bamboo floors and a 40 inch Samsung Smart TV. Down the hall from the twins bedroom is our guest bathroom with wood look porcelin tile floors, a double sink vanity and a frameless glass enclosed bathtub. Just past the guest bathroom, is a third bedroom with a Queen sized bed, Bamboo floors along with another large California style closet and a 40 inch Samsung Smart TV. This bedroom also has French doors allowing access to our large outdoor deck overlooking our waterway with multiple seating areas.
Also upstairs, adjacent to the kitchen are our living and dining rooms. The living room features a 55 inch Samsung Smart TV, two large leather reclining full size sofa's whose recliners open to a nearly flat position along with two comfortable oversized stuffed chairs providing seating for everyone. The dining room, features a large table that seats eight.
The fun does not end upstairs!. On the ground floor you will discover our second master suite with an ensuite bathroom, tastefully appointed with a double sink vanity and a large frameless glass enclosed shower with seating area. The bed is a plush, king sized bed with 600 thread count sheets and multiple memory foam pillows. This lavish bedroom also boasts a 55 inch Samsung Smart TV, Italian marble floors, a large California style closet along with a seating area consisting of a sofa and love seat. The sofa pulls out to a full sized sleeper and the entire seating area is adjacent to the French doors that lead out to our beautiful pool area.
Outside of our downstairs master suite is our laundry area consisting of a Samsung High Efficiency front load washer and Samsung dryer.
Down the hall from our laundry area is our recreation room with a custom designed regulation sized pool table, a pub table with 4 stools, a professional grade dart board, a 48 inch Samsung Smart TV and a queen sized sleeper sofa. The pool table also has a convertible top that allows it to be transformed into a ping pong table. Next to our recreation room, is another full bathroom with a glass enclosed Italian marble shower and in the next room is our storage room. Here you will find the ping pong table top, beach umbrellas, chairs and a cart.
Also on the ground floor, are two of our three outdoor lanai's. The smallest of the three, is a 250 Sq.ft. screened in lanai on the pool side of our home with a very comfortable seating group and a 43 inch Samsung Smart TV. Along the back of our villa, facing the water, is our 700 sq ft covered lanai. In this area you will find another seating group with 4 chairs. There is also a full service wet bar on the other end of the lanai with a sink and compact refrigerator.
Given that our villa is situated on a very desirable Key Lot, we have almost 150 ft of waterfront as compared to most Marco Island homes that are limited to only 80 ft. Because of this, rather than the pool being squeezed into a cramped space behind our home, we have the luxury of having the pool on one side of the home surrounded by an expansive Portuguese Travertine covered deck. The size of the deck allows room for 8 full size lounge chairs with custom made combination cocktail tables/umbrella stands. Also on the pool side of our home is a custom built BBQ station with an exotic granite top and pergola roof. The BBQ unit itself is a commercial grade Stainless Steel built-in with multiple burners and enough cooking surface to professionally grill an entire meal.
On the water we have a 50 ft dock and a separate floating dock for wave runners.
On the other side of our home, family's with children, will be delighted to find a full sized Cedar playground set, positioned on pure white beach sand with swings, slide and a fort. We also have a 2 person hammock, strung between two large coconut palms. This is the perfect place to watch your children enjoy our playground. I have spent many a lazy afternoon laying in that hammock reading a book, watching the birds fishing in our waterway, observing Dolphins and Manatee's cruising by or best of all, napping!

Our stay was amazing! Our family enjoyed our time using the pool, game room, and being so close to the beach was wonderful! We rented a boat which was great to see the island and tour different beaches. Dolphins all around was truly amazing to see!! We can’t wait to come back!
Our family of 10 were extremely blessed to get to spend a week in this perfect home. All the amenities were as listed and kept everyone entertained! Omar was very responsive and helpful. We would love to stay again.
We had a wonderful week at this property! The home was well appointed and extremely comfortable (especially the beds!). Between the pool, kayaks, playground, game room, plentiful lounge chairs, and fishing off the dock there was something for everyone. The location was perfect as well; we were able to easily walk to restaurants, shops, and the beach. Omar was communicative / responsive both before and during our stay, making sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our vacation. Overall we had a fantastic visit and look forward to returning!
Omar is a great host. He’s kind, patient, and thoughtful. The house is in a great location relative to the beach and shops and is equipped with everything a family needs. Thank you, Omar, for a great week!
The house is amazing. Great amenities and spacious. Beds comfortable and kitchen very usable. Kayaks, pool, grill and decks were all used and enjoyed. Short walk to beach, shops and restaurants. Omar was very easy to work with and wanted to make sure everyone had a great experience. Would highly recommend. Only downside is time seems to move too fast there. That could not have been a week!!😀
We had a great time at this house. It was clean and looked just like the pictures. Everyone had plenty of space for themselves. There is a plaza around 10 minutes away from the house that has a lot of restaurant options. The beach access is about a 15 minute walk. Unfortunately, we couldn't enjoy the pool because the weather was on the chillier side. However, we spent time fishing off the canal and some guests even enjoyed the kayaks. Overall great stay and the host was very friendly and was calling and checking in to make sure we had everything we needed.
Omar’s home is absolutely beautiful and roomy! Our family of 10 (kids ages 5 months - age 7) had the best time! Bedrooms, bathrooms and indoor areas were only outdone by the outdoor amenities. All pictures were accurate. We used everything except the bikes. This home is in a quiet cul de sac with an easy 10 minute walk to the beach and 5 minute walk to mini golf.
I have to mention that the sheets and bath towels are awesome, as well as beach wagon, beach towels, toys, pool chairs and umbrellas.
The decor is very tasteful but not overdone and not so fussy that the kids couldn’t touch anything.
Omar was very responsive to our questions and checked in several times.
We are anxious to return!
My family of 11 (three children) really enjoyed staying at this home. Three points I’d like to share. First off, the location really is the best! It’s a short walk to beach access and Marco square and miniature golf but in a very nice quiet neighborhood. A wagon to pull chairs, umbrellas and a cooler to the beach is provided. Plenty of beach towels also provided. Second, it was also wonderful to have all the amenities such as the beautiful outdoor pool, dock, fishing poles, kayaks, bikes and water boards so we didn’t have to rent them. Also, has a pool table and ping pong table. Third thing I definitely have to mention is the beds. All the beds were so very comfortable with top notch linens, blankets and pillows and I am very picky when it comes to beds and linens. Having a tv and fan in each room was great too. So it may not be as glamorous as some of the other homes on Marco when you first check them out on VRBO but you won’t regret renting this place.
This place ticks all of the boxes: a spacious and comfortable home with a beautiful pool area and on site fun plus an easy walk to the beach and area restaurants. We had a wonderful time here with our adult children!
Very nice place with a great location…. Had 10 adults and 1 infant and did not feel cramped. Have a lot of things at the house, bikes, grill, and pool was used quite often. Enjoyed our trip to Marco!
Our first trip to Marco Island was a wonderful experience. The home was very nice and was within a short walk to the beach and several restaurants. The kitchen / common area was a great place to gather. The pool was the center of outdoor activities, but the kayaks were also a big hit, affording those that were so inclined to explore the area by water.
The home comfortably slept our group of 7 adults and one infant. Cooked many meals in the beautifully stocked kitchen. Played a lot of cards and games at the big dining table, sat outside to take in the surrounding beauty! Pool was great, beautiful grill to cook on outside too. Very easy walk to the beach and ice cream. Had a few glitches (no fault of the property) and property manager was easily reached which is a plus. Lots of great beach equipment to use too, also a pack-and-play and high chair for the baby which was a nice thing!
The inside of the house was very good, plenty of linens and well set up kitchen. The outside did not live up to expectations. The playground is very much in need of repair, very rusted chains on swings and cracked support beams. None of the fishing rods worked. The chairs around the bar are very rusted. Pool is nice and bikes were fine. You can’t beat the location, easy walk to everything. With some outside maintenance this would be a true 5 star.
We loved our stay. Omar is an incredibly responsive and conscientious owner who was in touch throughout the process to assure we had an ideal stay, even replacing defective bikes within hours! The pool is a gem, and the pool table got almost as much of a workout. The kitchen was very well equipped and the welcoming basket was a delight. Location cannot be beat. We hope to make this an annual event.
Beautiful home! Wonderful amenities! My adult children loved everything about our week here. We took advantage of all that the house had to offer..... the private pool, kayaking, paddle boarding, bike rides, the fabulous outdoor grill, the game room etc. An easy walk to the beach, good restaurants and shopping within walking distance plus almost perfect weather made for dream week!
This house was perfect for 6 adults and 6 kids 4-9 in age. Even the 4 year old could make the 10 min walk to the beach and back. The beach was very nice, beat our expectations. Owner was great about making sure things were going smooth, answering any questions we had. We took advantage of the kayaks, gas grill and the wagon/canopy going to the beach. Kids enjoyed the pool of course, but ping pong table and putting green were enjoyed as well. It was a great week of memories for grandparents, kids/spouses and grandkids.
Our first trip to Marco Island was a fabulous experience. Omar’s home was perfect for our family of 10. The home decor was beautiful and there was plenty of room for us to gather inside, but spent most of our time either at the beach or at the pool. Everything we needed was within walking distance or a short ride in the car. Omar reached out to us immediately and was available whenever we had any questions.
We stayed at Omar’s house for a week over new years. It was the perfect layout and amount of space for our two families of 4. The location was great. An easy 7 min walk to the beach. A close walk to many restaurants and the JW resort. The property had a great pool and lots of toys. We went paddle boarding in the canal and enjoyed checking out the homes. We might considering renting a boat next time. The house was well equipped with all necessities. I have no complaints.
This home was perfect for us! Four couples that have been friends since high school❤️ Our morning, coffee out on the raised deck was only enhanced by watching the tide move in and out of the canal. We loved our swimming pool and thoroughly enjoyed our walk to the beach. The sunsets were fabulous! In the afternoon, we enjoyed a cocktail under, the covered porch. Truly, the set up of this home with amazing for us! The host, Omar, could not have been more accommodating. He fulfilled our every need! I would highly recommend this property.
This property was in a beautiful neighborhood. It was only a short walk to the public beach access, good restaurants and shopping. The only time we used our car was a five minute drive to the grocery store. Every amenity you can imagine is available for families, along with a heated pool, playground for kids, bikes, and even kayaks, paddle boards, and fishing poles. I'm not kidding! The owner, Omar, was the best. He promptly checked in with us to make sure all was well and answered any questions we had. We obviously hope to rent again!

Disliked: Listing accuracy
Renter beware
Online pictures are outdated. Overall condition of the property was poor. Ripped screens, broken cabinet doors, pool liner in poor condition. Listing indicates it’s a 5 bedroom house but in reality only four bedrooms. Location of house is very convenient but that’s the only redeeming quality. Would not stay here again.
