Flew in with a flight of four for lunch. Parking was interesting, since most of the tiedowns are marked "Reserved" and the space closest to the building isn't really for parking (although it looks like all of the others). Granted, the linemen were busy with a couple of jets that had just arrived, so were not able to wave us in to the correct spaces...We'll know next time. Overall nice new facility with a full size courtesy van for transport to the "Snook Inn" for a great lunch. There is allot of construction going on, building much needed taxiways.

Flew in on Sunday afternoon for a short daycation. Lots of runway, although no taxiways as of yet, so you have to taxi back on the runway. New taxiways are being built now and will be done in the next 2 months. Service was excellent. Got our plane parked and came right out and fueled up the plane. Fuel was very reasonable. The FBO is very nice inside and the staff immediately offered a courtesy van to be able to go into town and look around and get a bite to eat. We went to the Snooks Inn on the water and the food and atmosphere were excellent. Would recommend this airport and FBO. Lots to do nearby. A fun day trip or weekend trip.

We flew our Maule to Marco Island for a weekend stay. The nice lineman (Franco) met me on the ramp after giving instructions over radio to park at any open tie down. He tied down the airplane while I unloaded. Nice airport with coffee and popcorn and a nice pilot lounge. Fuel order completed as requested. $15 per night parking is reasonable. Marco Island is a very pretty destination with a good airport.

After the poor review I received a call from the airport manager and he was very diligent about making sure my experience was the exception rather than the rule. In fact he met me at X01 the following week, which was much appreciated. Everyone is entitled to an off day, and after my conversation with the Mgr. I believe this was the case in Marco.

Would consider ditching in the water before landing here again. Landed on 4-22-11, and respecting the meaning of the word RESERVED (which marked every tie down), I passed the few open spaces when I received instruction from a lineman laced with attitude to park in any space. Once inside the staff was annoyed at best (and combative at worst) with any question regarding local attractions / cabs, crabs or car rentals. In filling out a fuel slip asked for 10 gallons of 100LL in each tip tank only to return from a poor meal at the Snook Inn to find god knows what was put in the mains. When confronting the desk about the fuel was told "I put the fuel in the wings" I questioned, "The wings or the tips as indicated on the slip?" and got a response of "Oh well I didn't pay attention to that." Followed by what the hell are you going to do about it look. Go to X01 for better food, service, and overall experience.

Flew in for lunch on Easter weekend. The place was crowded with planes and the crew car was already loaned out but Maria gave us the keys to her personal car and directions to restaurant. How's that for personal service? Had a wonderful lunch at Snook Inn. Thanks Maria we will be back!

Great FBO, spent the weekend in Marco Island with a Saturday trip to Key West, needed refueling twice and Maria did a great job looking after our Baron. Also had a great suggestion for a local restaurant, the Snook Inn, great seafood.

Picked up an airplane at Marco that I had never seen before much less flown. The service was good and the staff was very accommodating spent a couple of hours making sure the airplane was good to go, borrowing ladders, tools etc. Very friendly, very helpful, thanks for the good service.

Flew in today for the first time to Marco Island on my Light Sports (LSA) airplane and as soon as I landed the staff was on the ramp and on the radio providing assistance. I was offered the FBO pickup truck for 2 hours and it allowed me to do some sightseeing and have a quick lunch in town. Great FBO and staff!
