ESCAPE - INDULGE - LIVE YOUR LIFE!

A busy day at Beach Haven is like nowhere else:  Imagine rolling out of bed in your luxurious Master Suite, where your only worry is whether to stroll to nearby Tigertail beach before or after a morning swim in your private pool.  Consider renting a boat for a few hours, then returning to your own dock for some dolphin watching or at-home fishing (we supply the poles of course).  A bicycle ride in the late afternoon for some shopping (or a cappuccino) on the Esplanade (or at any of the many other local shops) would be fun!  

Perhaps an evening bar-b-que on the fully enclosed lanai is in order.  (Balmy gulf breezes and spectacular sunsets are just a small part of what makes Marco so popular!).  Then mix up a few margaritas for a late night Jacuzzi.  Sleep late, enjoy life a little.  Tomorrow, you can spend an entire day working hard on your sun tan while enjoying a gorgeous wide water view from Beach Haven's huge open air waterside deck.  Vacations just don't get better than this!

Beach Haven is a large, 3 bed, 2 1/2 bath, DESIGNER WATERFRONT HOME only a SHORT WALK TO TIGERTAIL BEACH (with its shimmering white sand and world famous sunsets).  Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, in one of the most prestigious areas of Marco Island (The exclusive Hideaway Beach residential estates are just a few short blocks away!), with million dollar homes all around it, Beach Haven is a vacation home renter's dream come true.

The great location makes it perfect for short walks to local dining and shopping (the new Esplanade is just a short walk away).  Or, take one of the bicycles provided for your pleasure and enjoy a leisurely island tour.  (Running routes and local exercise facilities are very close  too, should you indulge in too many Key Lime pies as we often do!)

Beach Haven offers over 2100 square feet of living space under CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING.  It's FULLY SCREENED LANAI encloses the ELECTRICALLY HEATED SWIMMING POOL WITH SPILL-OVER WATERFALL SPA, making pool time a "bugless" pleasure in all seasons. 

She is situated on a lushly landscaped WATERFRONT LOT, (with full grown palm trees and citrus trees), so as to enjoy a truly STUNNING WIDE AND LONG WATER VIEW from the master bedroom, master bathroom, dining room, lanai, living room and kitchen (almost every room in the house actually).  Views like this are at a premium on Marco!  (You won't find a lot of rental homes offering them, so pay close attention when choosing your vacation rental home!).  

Note:  Railings to the pool have been removed since this photo was taken

Beach Haven boasts a spacious floor plan (with Master Suite in a separate wing from the two guest bedrooms and guest bath), upscale contemporary furnishings, VAULTED CEILINGS, colorful tropical decor, and bright designer accents (beveled glass tabletops, leather furniture, high ceilings in every room, custom arched windows, stunning window treatments, ceiling fans in all rooms, tile floors in the kitchen and all family rooms, plush carpeting in the bedrooms, and the finest appliances in every room).  High sliding glass doors open onto the screened lanai from the Dining room, Breakfast nook and Master Bedroom.  First Class throughout! 

FORMAL DINING ROOM:  Off to one side of the Kitchen, for everything from quiet intimate dinners to fun-filled dinner parties.  Invite some of the great people you meet on Marco Island over for dinner one night.  We do often.  You might think you won't use it, but you may, and isn't it nice to have the option?  Leather upholstered chairs for six guests, set around a beveled glass dining table...that's the joy of Beach Haven, being able to do whatever you want, from beachy casual to smartly elegant!

LIVING ROOM:  Eight foot high fully retracting sliding glass doors from the dining room light up this gorgeous room.  Should it storm, don't worry.  We have provided you with a big-screen TV complete with VCR and DVD player, a wide variety of videos and DVDs, and a 6 disc CD stereo system.  The leather couch pulls out into a queen size bed should you require additional sleeping arrangements.  The leather love seat and chair both have built in recliners.

BREAKFAST NOOK:  Conveniently located next to the kitchen for informal snacks and light meals.  This vibrant colorful room is as bright as the Florida sunshine.  On one side, it looks out very high arched designer (paned) windows onto lush landscaping.  On another side, it looks out high glass sliding doors onto the lanai and pool. (You can even pick fruit from your own citrus trees located on the property - when in season of course!) 

With room to comfortably seat six, and close proximity to the kitchen, this cheerful breakfast nook is bound to become your "home base" for everything from planning sightseeing trips to munching late at night.

KITCHEN:  Beach Haven's designer kitchen is truly a cooks delight.  Very few rental homes will offer you such a pristine top-of-the-line kitchen.  It features: New cabinets, TWO self-cleaning ovens, CORIAN COUNTERTOPS, and premium appliances (including a microwave, dishwasher, range, refrigerator with ice maker, breadmaker, coffee maker). 

Beach Haven's kitchen even looks out over the lanai with a large, retractable, pass-through window to the lanai's pool bar!  So passing drinks or food out to guests is a breeze...or perhaps you just need to keep a watchful eye on the "little ones" while making meals.  The BREAKFAST BAR area will really come in handy too.  You'll be surprised how often you use it.  We practically live at ours! 

MASTER BEDROOM SUITE:  Located in its own wing of this spacious home is a wonderful retreat that we refer to as the MASTER SUITE.  Imagine relaxing before dinner or at the end of each sun-filled day in a quiet enclave appointed with designer decor, KING SIZE BED, large WALK-IN CLOSET, a high ceiling with ceiling fan (in addition to air conditioning, of course), plush "Berber" carpeting, a full-size master bath (with SEPARATE WHIRLPOOL BATH TUB AND GLASS ENCASED SHOWER, hand crafted mosaic countertops, TWO SINKS, and its own private door leading to the lanai).   Not yet ready for sleeping?  Then, why not enjoy some TV, or a DVD on the DVD player in your Master Suite?  We provide a large selection of popular DVDs to choose from. 

QUEEN-SIZE BEDROOM AND SECOND FULL BATH:   The first of our two guest bedrooms is furnished in tropical motif, with a queen size bed, TV / VCR combination, and a full bathroom that it shares with the second guest bedroom.  And, of course, high ceilings and a ceiling fan (in addition to central air conditioning) complete this beautiful guest room.

TWIN BED BEDROOM:   Perfect for when children are in your party, or easily pushed together for "couples" sleeping.     High ceiling with fan, of course!   After all, ceiling fans really do add to that relaxed Florida feeling.  The gentle breeze is so calming at nighttime, even though the house temperature is always comfortable with the adjustable central air and heating system.   Sony Play Station with games is included for your enjoyment!

POOL, SPILL-OVER WATERFALL SPA, AND FULLY SCREENED LANAI:  Whether you enter Beach Haven's lanai from the 8 foot fully retracting sliding glass doors in the large dining room, from the 6 foot high sliding Master Bedroom glass doors, or from the Master Bedroom's private bath, you won't want to leave once you are on it!  This lanai is fully stocked for your relaxation, and has a GREAT WIDE AND LONG WATER VIEW! 

The electrically heated pool and spa are always the right temperature because you can set them to what makes you comfortable.  (There is even a rollaway pool cover to preserve the heat in the cooler evenings from January through March.)  We provide the pool toys, pool floats, and beach towels!   So whether you want to relax in one of our lanai lounge chairs, eat at the outside dining table, bar-b-que your "catch-of-the-day" on the gas grille, sip a margarita at the poolside bar, or play in the pool, everything you will need is waiting at Beach Haven.  (You won't even have to go in the house for a bathroom break. Beach Haven has an extra 1/2 bath located on the lanai - in addition to the two full baths inside the house!)

This lanai is even equipped with a built in audio system and television so you can play your favorite music or watch your favorite TV program while the kiddies swim.   Sun!  Sun!  Sun!  This lanai gets it most of the day as you can see from these pictures!

BOAT DOCK, BOAT LIFT AND FISH CLEANING STATION:    Yes, you can fish from your own dock when you stay at Beach Haven!  Or, if you prefer, you can rent a boat from one of the many boat rental companies on Marco Island and dock it right in your own backyard!  You buy the bait and tackle, and we'll have the fishing poles waiting!  With running water and lights, Beach Haven's dock is ready to assist in any way that you desire, morning or evening.
