We found this condo, exactly like the photos on the listing. Beautifully decorated and the amenities met all of our needs. Kitchen well stocked, linens as well. The complex was very well maintained. We enjoyed sunny weather every day and temperatures in the 80's. Our stay was in March, 2011. We will have many fond memories of our vacation at Wild Pines. Matonic's & Wilfong's, Michigan

We (4 of us) stayed at this condo from March 9-16, 2010. The condo was wonderful. Very clean. Nice screened in balcony and a very quiet area. The beds were comfortable and the condo was very nicely furnished. The location in Bonita Springs was perfect. We made it to the beach one day and an attendant was there to make sure you had a chair and an umbrella if you wanted. Don was also very helpful and provided us with several suggestions for restuarants and shopping areas. We will certainly stay here again when we return to Bonita Springs. You can rent from Don with complete confidence.

Hi Don, We had a great stay at your place at the Wild Pines. We loved the location and the condo was awesome.We slept wonderfully (what is the mattress brand?) in the master bedroom. Sven's crib was next to us. We all enjoyed the place. We left some water/beer/pop in the refrigerator. We ate at some good restaurants taken from your list - Bonefish, The Silver Spoon, Iguana Mia Saw my one Aunt who lives near Terry & I75 and my Uncle who lives at the Bonita Beach Club. Fun! We traveled to Naples (Naples Pier) and went to Bonita Bay Beach Resort for a couple hours one day. The Twins game was great - a little hot for Sven - so we were taken upstairs to the third level by Twins admin offices and watched under the shade - we had so much fun! Thanks again. We'd love to stay at your place again in the future. Best, Stephanie

Hi Don, Just arrived back in snowy cold Schaumburg. Thought I would drop you a quick email to let you know we had a great time and the weather wasn't as bad as the weather channels made it out to be. Cleaned the place up pretty good before we left. Replenished the bottled water and TP. Loved the shuttle service to the beach. That worked out very well for us. Saw a few dolphins, had some nice meals and did a little exploring of the area. Thanks, Bob

January 2008 Greetings from sunny Florida, We were able to find the county public library yesterday and to use computers for e-mail or internet. The library is not far from where we live and I will dare drive here to use it. It is quite different from using the computer at home and I honestly do not know how it will work. We have all of the e-mail addresses in our account since we began with earthlink and will have to do some erasing the next time we come back. We had an excellent drive to south Florida, a distance of 2033 miles. An Alex neighbor came over before we left home to point out the roads he uses to reach a place north of us. These are freeways or 4 lane roads with fewer trucks on them and we found this was true. We averaged about 500 miles a day as we stayed the last night in nearby Ft. Myers. There was much road construction in Alabama and on I-10 in north Florida, but we drove these roads on Sat. and Sunday when the workers were at home. The only quite big city we hit at dusk on the way was Nashville and so many of the vehicles turned from the main road to go to Grand Old Oprey that we did not have a problem. The area of Bonita Springs where the condo we are renting is called Bonita Bay and it is just so very lovely that it is hard to describe. It is over 2,400 acres with tight security 24 hours a day, 3 golf courses, etc. We have started walking for 40 to 50 minutes in the morning on the paved walking trails which give us the chance to see the flowering shrubs, plants, and all of the beautifully cared for trees. There are always persons working to keep the grounds just perfect. The condo itself is is just perfect! The owners had made it a point of coming to clean it before we came and now it will be a challenge to keep it that way. There are several walls of floor to ceiling mirrors and other walls of glass windows. The deck or lanai can be enterred from 3 doors in the living quarters. We have been napping out there on lounges! The furnishings and decorations are like something from House Beautiful - just lovely. We are so thankful to have the chance to be here for several weeks this winter. Each day we have been trying something new or finding businesses we will use in the future. Today we enjoyed the spa hot tub and the pool just a few steps from our door. We found the grocery prices to be a shocker! Have tried three different supermarkets so far to check the costs. No spellchecker and I am about out of time.
