Riverside A305

Wonderful experience view is outstanding property manager LISA was great. She was always pleasant. The carpet could be updated as well as the cabinets.

We had a excellent stay for 6 weeks, the weather was great and our view from the condo were as last year outstanding.

This was put sixth year staying at the Rivetside Club and I can't say enough about it. The location, the view from the lanai, the people and the ladies in the office. Nancy & Julie are the best. They are very helpful and accommodating as well as very nice. Looking forward to next year's stay!

We were very pleased with our stay in the A building this year. The staff from Harborview at the Riverside location exceeded our exceptions in addressing a few small concerns we had after checking in. Overall the condo was clean and had sufficient kitchen accessories. The only thing we would say is that the unit does need to be updated. Furniture in the living area, carpet and updated kitchen cabinets would make this unit outstanding.

We have stayed at Riverside for the past 5 years and are very happy there. In the past 5 years we have stayed in 2 other units. The view of the Marco River is absolutely beautiful. The location is great for anyone that doesn't drive, there are many restaurants and stores that you can walk to and they are all very good. The only problem I have is with the cleaning service that is used. The blinds are disgusting, the vacuum was filthy and full of dust. I washed the tile floors and they were filthy. I like to keep the unit like I would keep my own home. Otherwise we love coming to Riverside. The office staff were wonderful (Julie & Nancy) were always helpful. I would definitely recommend renting at Riverside to a family member or friend.

This is an older unit with few upgrades:no wi-fi, no phone, no dvd player. There were ample supplies of dishes, glasses and cutlery but very little storage since the owner used most of it.Chairs and beach umbrella were dirty and unusable.

Riverview is a great place to stay, whether its for short term or much longer. We've vacationed there for past 3 years and hope to return next year. Everyone at the rental agency was very helpful and professional. We stayed at the condo A305 last year and again this year.The unit last year was not up to the standards we expected and upon departing last year we made some recommendations for updating the property. We were in hopes that it would be done for our return this year, but we were very disappointed. The view from building A is what we love the most. However, this year we relocated to a unit in building E for an extra couple days and found that we loved E409. It was much more homey, and decorated to our taste. However, the view wasn't to our liking. We have not made any reservation for next year as yet. And if updates aren't made to A305, we won't be reserving that unit. Some updates to consider: clean carpet, maybe some color on the walls, more comfortable lanai furniture, Wi-Fi, a new mattress cover (the old one is stretched and moves with my every turn), sheets that are not tissue-paper thin, new shower rod and curtain, new faucets in bathroom, etc. I would love to know this is being done before I make any future reservations. Thanks for hearing me out. Hope to visit Marco Island again.

This condo has a beautiful view right close to the water. Very quiet and peaceful.

We had a great stay here. Pool and hot tub were wonderful. Enjoyed nice walks from the property, up and down Bald Eagle. The bathroom could use a little repair. We hope to be able to do a longer stay next year.

The location of the condo was great. The temperature alittle chilly. The only thing that needs to be improved is the bedroom TV needs to be updated so it can work on digital. Also the new front door was hard to lock and open - ? needs to be re-lined.

The property is beautiful and very well maintained but our unit needed updating in the bathroom and kitchen - the bedroom furniture and living room furniture was new. The staff was great.
