About Us
Visit Marco Island is proudly operated by Scott and Kelly Carr, a husband-and-wife team whose combined expertise spans hospitality, tourism, web development, and digital marketing.
With deep roots in the Naples community, they bring a unique blend of industry knowledge and local passion to the forefront, offering both visitors and businesses an authentic and expertly crafted experience.
Their backgrounds in digital strategy and tourism ensure that Visit Marco Island serves as an invaluable resource for exploring the best of the area while supporting local businesses with innovative online solutions.
What we're trying to achieve
1. Promote Marco Island as a world-class vacation destination
Marco Island boasts a wealth of things to do, and we're dedicated to showcasing its natural beauty, diverse activities, must-see landmarks, and local shopping districts. From luxury accommodations to exceptional dining options, we aim to highlight everything that makes Marco Island a premier destination for travelers.
2. Provide a local perspective of Marco Island on a modern platform
We offer authentic, valuable content from local residents with real opinions, delivered on a custom-built platform designed to help users easily explore the area or find exactly what they need.
3. Help businesses reach visitors more cost effectively
Online Travel Agencies (OTAs) like Viator, Expedia, and Airbnb Experiences often charge suppliers 15% to 30% in commissions. By eliminating the middleman and driving direct bookings, we help local operators retain more revenue, reduce the need for price increases, and maintain competitive offerings.
