Review of Marco Island, Florida


Absolute Paradise (island life)
Star Rating - 10/8/2021
We just purchased a home here from San Diego, Ca. Marco island is so refreshing! It is Clean, no trash, people care about their yards and community with impeccable upkeep, no homeless and the weather is beautiful. We actually swim in the ocean as the temperature is warm and the water is calming! It is so green from the tropical rain. We are very active there is a nice new gym we found and everything is biking distance. The food is amazing! It is a true Island Paradise. Naples is a beautiful 20 minute drive for more shopping and restaurants, the drive is lovely, green and super clean which is something we don't see on the freeways of San Diego. Eventually we will make either Naples or Marco our permanent residence but for now we can enjoy it 4 or 5 times a year until we are able to cut ties from California!

Thank you for your review. My husband and I live in the Monterey California area and are looking at Marco for retirement too!

We are able to work remotely now, so moving permanently to Marco, we may decide to go further towards Naples as we are pre-retirement and do enjoy a mellow lifestyle but may need a bit more activity. It is completely different from Ca. but for us in a good way. Enjoy!
