Travel tips
If you plan to work online or stream heavily, note that Wi‑Fi is fee-based and some guests report unreliable connectivity, so consider a backup hotspot.

For nature excursions, build extra time for drives to Cape Romano, Rookery Bay, or Collier-Seminole State Park compared with the nearby arts and museum stops around central Marco Island.
