Perfect!
Huge fenced in yard that my dog loved! Beds were comfortable, even though they creaked when you got in them. Thankfully we are a tall bunch, we would have had issues getting into the high beds if we weren’t. Pool was nice and warm and about 5 foot deep in the deepest part. Many DoorDash options. I want that huge couch in the entry area, seriously the most comfortable couch I have ever sat on! My only complaint would be that there wasn’t spare toilet paper, paper towels, or beach towels. All were easily fixed though with a run to the store. We left two beach towels there to add to the supply. Fantastic location and as long as you know the lock code is for the actual door (not the old school key box on the wall) it is a smooth check in process :-) Would definitely stay in again, and truly do wish I knew the manufacturer of that huge couch….totally epic setup!

Great Spring Break
This house was great for our family (two adults, three kids) spring break. It was not too far to get out to the gulf from the channel on the boat. We were also within walking distance of a couple of fun restaurants. The kids loved the pool. The fenced in yard made it easy to bring the dog. Overall a clean quiet place for a nice family vacation.

Why they chose this property

A group of friends vacationed in Florida quite often and loved the relaxing atmosphere it offers. We decided to buy a home away from home. Southwest Florida is far enough away from the hustle and bustle and yet so close to so much. We stay at the house a few times a year and it is harder to leave each time. Whether you are looking to simply relax in the pool or go out and explore, there is so much to do...minutes from Ft Myers Beach and a short boat ride to Sanibel Island, there is something for everyone. We hope you enjoy our vacation home as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

There is dock space available for keeping boat rentals at the property (property is on a quiet canal that connects to Caloosahatchee River). My favorite thing to do is wake up early and take a 10 minute bike ride to the pier, grab a coffee and watch the sunrise over the Caloosahatchee River while the baby dolphins make a morning appearance. We also enjoy taking a boat ride and exploring the nearby islands.
