About this property

Beautiful home, ideal for a larger group to gather.

  • Hemingway House of Marco Island, short term rental

    From the moment you enter the home, it feels like relaxation.
    Enjoy the lovely view, have a nice drink on the upstairs balcony or take a swim in the pool.
    The sunrise over the water is particularly captivating. That`s when you have a good chance to see the dolphins come by and greet you.

    The house is so comfortable, with bedrooms with a king-size bed, closets, TVs, attached bathrooms, oversized balcony upstairs with a swing couch overseeing Bimini Bay.
    The nightly rate is based on ten people in the party, the house sleeps up to 12 people in beds and 2 additional people on sleeper couches, however, any additional people ( children as well ) beyond 10 people there will be a charge of 50 dollars plus tax per additional gueste per night. Thank you for your understanding.
    Upstairs there is hardwood flooring and the downstairs has tile flooring.

    Attractive ceiling fans as well as comfortable lighting.

    Very comfortable relaxing atmosphere, Key West style home with wraparound porches and exquisite interior.

    The house is in a quiet, residential neighborhood. It is not suitable for having loud parties on the premise, therefore people who want to enjoy a wonderful quiet vacation are welcome.
    Papergoods such as toilet paper, kitchen rolls will be provided for the initial days, but it is understood, as the week goes on the guests will purchase their own goods.

    This home is NOT suitable for loud parties and festivities. The city of Marco Island has put new noise ordinance in place which will have them send the police out to write tickets.
    Please no loud music around the pool and preferably have everyone enjoy the inside after 8 pm.

    No garden furniture go into the pool since it hurts the surface of the pool which can be very costly to repair and the tenants will be responsible for this expense.

    We offer one space for your car in the garage and two spaces in front of the garages. If you have a fourth vehicle it needs to go to another location.

    To our boater guests we have to ask you to bring the trailer to a different location since there is no room in front of the garage to accommodate a trailer and your cars. Marco Marinas can help to store your trailer.
    Gsincere thankyouMarlene, manager for the Hemingway House.

The house was perfect for us. The pool and hot tub probably got the most attention. The pool temp setting was good for the weather we had. We sure appreciated the extra refrigerator in the garage. Having a bathroom at each bedroom was also very nice. Marlene our Host did an excellent job quickly answering and questions we had. We would definitely stay at the Hemingway House again.
