Discover Cape Coral in a relaxing and spacious setting! This beautifully-manicured and well-equipped home is located on a saltwater canal with access to the gulf. Enjoy sitting on the U-shaped dock, watching the manatees and their babies play in the canal.

This peaceful and quiet location is perfect for couples who want to get away or families looking to experience the real Cape Coral. We even have a portable, fold-up crib, high chair, and stroller for families with young children.

Thinking of entertaining? The extra-large lanai has two sitting and dining areas to accommodate extra company. Whether you want to start the day with a swim or just sit back and relax, we’ve got you covered with our heated pool that has a depth of 8ft in the deep end and a luxurious, private hot tub.

During your stay, enjoy fishing off the dock. You can also bring your own boat or rent one locally: the boat lift handles up to 10,000lbs. This is a wonderful second family home for us, and we know you’ll enjoy staying here as much as we have!

Ft. Myers beach is less than a half hour away, and there are plenty of attractions within minutes of our location, including many great restaurants. Cape Coral offers something for everyone in your group, from beaches, biking, and kayaking to miniature golf, shopping, and a water park. You can also get in a round of golf or check out baseball spring training. There is a grocery store within a ½ mile, and churches are just a short distance away.

Don’t just take our word for how beautiful this home is: view more photos and start planning your stay!

                                We arrived in Cape Coral not knowing what to expect of the area as we have never been to that part of Florida. We needn't have worried because as soon as we walked through the door to the villa we felt totally at home. The villa is exactly as advertised, beautifully clean and so well equipped. There wasn't anything we needed that we couldn't find there! After a very hectic week in Orlando the beautiful pool and relaxing hot tub were exactly what we needed. The owner was extremely helpful prior to us travelling over to the US and answered any queries I had. My children aged 14 and 9 found things that kept them occupied and we were very grateful for the DVD's left there. We did go out and about and loved 'Manatee Park' in Fort Myers and it is well worth having a day out to Sanibel/Captiva. We saw Dolphins in the sea on the beach at Sanibel Lighthouse. Made our day! Definitely worth going to eat is the 'Lobster Lady' but call ahead as it is very busy. I can't praise this villa enough it made our holiday and I would definitely recommend it to anyone wishing to visit the Cape Coral area. I only wish it were ours!

                                Owner response: Thank you. Hope to see you next year! Chuck & Ellen

                                My first impression of the home was that it had absolutely beautiful landscaping. This led to me having a very high expectation of the inside; I was not disappointed. Upon walking into the home I was stunned by how nice everything was. All of the furniture looked brand new and I immediately felt comfortable. My biggest surprise to the home was just how big the lanai (patio) and pool area was. Every morning I had breakfast on the lanai looking into the pool area and out toward the canal. It was perfect! I was looking for a relaxing get-away and I found it! Some of the other nice things about the home was the dock on the canal. There was some great fishing to be had while sitting on the dock and I even saw my first Manatee! Very exciting! Also, there is a full grocery store only a few minutes from the house and many restaurants just a little further. We had a lot of fun trying out some of the local favorites. In a nutshell, I plan to come back. Very relaxing.

                                Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, people with disabilities, sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway, adventure seekers.
