Hello Karen and Ed, Well been home for a week and hating it already. Minus 3 today and suppose to go to -15 by end of week, so definitely dreaming about being back at your fabulous home right now. We can't begin to tell you how much we enjoyed every aspect of our vacation and your house. Lorne and myself both love to cook so it was so nice having the kitchen stocked with every possible, bowl, plate, pots, utensils and most spices that we would need. We BBQ'd every day except once when we went down to the Marina. It was also great that everyone got their own King bed and bathroom and since the one couple couldn't make it, we made good use out of the queen room as well when Lorne was snoring too loud I would either kick him over there or move over myself. We golfed about 5 days and although the courses were quite wet as there had been quite a bit of rain we still had a great time and the prices were exceptional. We normally go to Palm Springs or Phoenix and they are both quite a bit more expensive. We would like you to thank Jerry as well for coming over and showing us how to use everything and it was nice that he was only a phone call away although everything ran smoothly so didn't have to bother him. Anyway if we make it back that way your house will definitely be where we are going to stay even if we have to work our schedule around the availability. Anyway have a wonderful day and I am sure we will talk to you again sometime for a future rental. Deb and Lorne

A Little Piece of Paradise In Cape Coral

Dear Ed & Karen We would like to take this time to let you know how truly blessed we are to have found such a beautiful home to enjoy with our family(s). We appreciated all the information you provided us prior to our arrival. Our first walk through the doors of Villa Ultima was simply "breathtaking" and knowing we were staying in such luxurious surroudings confirmed what we suspected from the start... we had found our "little piece of paradise" on Cape Coral. So much attention to detail no matter what room we were in. We wanted for absolutely nothing. We so enjoyed relaxing in the pool with our children and boating to as many destinations as we could squeeze into one week... Fort Meyers Beach, Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, Pine Island. Just cruizing through the canals and taking in the beauty of the neighborhood scenery were all treats beyond compare. Dolphins, sea turtles, manatee's, stingray, osprey, and numerous sea birds were a daily source of "awe" for all of us. Thanks so much for sharing your home away from home with all of us. Every moment was special! The Prince Family(s)

Hi Ed & Karen Well, it was our 6th visit this year and every time is as wonderful as the first. We know that the Villa is always going to be immaculate, spotlessly clean and extremely well maintained. The facilities are first class and we never cease to be thrilled every time we walk through the front door. It is the little things that make all the difference. Ed rang to make sure we had arrived safely, and at the end of our holiday Karen rang to make sure our stay had been okay and to ask us if there was anything they could do to improve things. Our response - how can you improve on perfection ? We are already planning our next visit and thank you both for sharing your beautiful home. Kind regards Linda & David Dawson Hertfordshire, England.

We spent the week of Memorial Day at Villa Ultima and wish it could have been a month! The property is everything you could wish for and is just as beautiful as the pictures depict. The pool area is purfect. There is always an area of shade to sit under for those who need to stay out of the sun. The pool was wonderful. We had a mini-family vacation with my 86 year old mother, and two brothers and their wives. It worked out great. Having multiple rooms with king size beds was important as both of my brothers are tall and need the extra area. We found many great restaurants to sample and did some grilling on our own. You don't have far to go to get food and liquid supplies. There are Sam's Clubs and Costcos in the area as well. If you are thinking about it, don't hesitate. You won't be disappointed.

We had never been to Florida but had always wanted to go. Staying at Villa Ultima was the best choice we could have made. The pictures truly do not do it justice. The house and location are perfect. We really enjoyed biking to the marina and all it had to offer. Pignoli's restaurant was a great find. Delicious food for a fair and reasonable price. We were able to get out and about since we had a rental car. We went to Ft. Myers beach, Pine Island and Cape Coral. The people are very open and friendly, true Southern hospitality. We were there the first week of November and the weather was perfect! And this is from a couple from Los Angeles. Thanks again, Karen and Ed. you guys are super. Jeanine and Rick Gray

We had a lovely fortnight at Villa Ultima in June/July 2008. The house is exceptionally well located and a real home-from-home. Thanks to Karen and Ed for their friendly welcome and we hope to be back again very soon!
Owner response:Lesley also wrote in an email "just wanted to thank you both for renting your lovely home to us for the last 2 weeks. We had a great fortnight and are hugely delighted to have discovered such a lovely base in Cape Coral. Over the past 14 years, we've rented a number of different houses in the area, amongst which yours is outstanding - it's so well equipped and cared for, and the location for us as avid boaters was fabulous! Meeting a couple of dolphins and then, on another day, a grazing manatee, all in the canal just around the corner from Ultima was a highlight we shall always treasure!"

Dear Ed & Karen - Four generations of our family enjoyed your beautiful home over the 2007 Christmas Holiday. We just want to thank you for making this a wonderful and memorable experience for us. Your home is so comfortable and you've thought of everything in regards to amenities. There were no surprises as everything was just as stated. We immediately felt "at home" the moment we walked through the front door. Thanks for sharing Villa Ultima with us!

Dear Ed and Karen, I think my family was one of the first to stay in your lovely home. We loved it so much! You furnished it with such good quality pieces - furniture, beds, linens, etc. that staying there was a real treat. The pool is wonderful, the water access to Sanibel Island by boat so direct. Everything was just perfect!

Hi Karen! Thank you for all of the information about Villa Ultima! We have been renting homes for our Easter vacation for about 6 years now and I have to say that you and Ed are certainly the most thorough and accommodating owners that we have dealt with. We are so excited about our upcoming stay at your home! Thanks again, Kim DiRienzo
