We had a wonderful week at this Matlacha rental and would absolutely stay here again. The house was very clean and well stocked with everything we needed, which made settling in easy and stress free.We especially loved spending our afternoons relaxing in the pool after being out on the boat. It was the perfect way to unwind. One highlight of the trip was dining at the Blue Dog Bar & Grill, where we had some amazing shrimp tacos.There was a small issue with the Keurig not turning on, but the host handled it quickly and had a replacement delivered the very next day, which we really appreciated.Overall, a fantastic stay in a great location!

Wow, what a great spot! My husband, I, and our fur kids truly enjoyed staying at this little gem. The place was immaculately clean and had everything we could possibly need for a wonderful stay—and more. I was especially impressed with how well the kitchen was stocked.The dining area, with its many windows, offered a beautiful view of the channel, and we loved enjoying our morning coffee there. Having our boat so close by was incredibly convenient, and we also really enjoyed the pool. This place was wonderful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!
