We recently rented this house for a week. It was our first time staying in a house rather than a hotel and we'd do it again in a second! Adrian was very easy to work with and responded to all questions immediately. The house is clean, well taken care of and close to shopping and restaurants. We loved the private pool and quiet neighborhood. Thanks again to Adrian for making this a great vacation!

Owner response:Thanks for your kind words and we're pleased you all had a great time

We rented this home for the month of February 2011. At first we were a bit nervous to rent from an owner living so far away, but Adrian quickly calmed any of our concerns with his outstanding and prompt communications. In addition to email, we spoke via phone prior to arrival, and then met him in person in January when he was in the home. The entire rental process went without a hitch – from confirming the reservation to timely receipt of the security deposit. His next-door-neighbor is the contact person for any problems, but I never met him since we had no problems! The location of this house is excellent – central to so many things in the Estero/Ft. Meyers/Bonita Springs area. As others indicated, the house is very clean. The bed in the master bedroom is very comfortable and the room itself is much larger than it looks in the picture. The rental rate is quite competitive for a single family house with a pool and the $200 electric allowance is higher than most. A real value! Thank you to Adrian and Marga for sharing your house. It was a pleasure to meet you both! Regards, Rob and Linda, Woodridge IL

Owner response:Dear Linda & Rob, Thanks for your kind words. I often come across guests who find it scary dealing with somebody who lives overseas. I think you're comments will put their mind at rest.

Great rental property

We really enjoyed our stay in this home. The location is central to everything - shopping, golf, airport and restaurants. The house is very clean and well-equipped. This home has a beautiful southern view of the pond and the wildlife that visits there. The owner was very easy to work with and accessible during our visit in case we had a problem (like the security code for wireless internet). I would definitely recommend this home if you're looking in Estero.

Owner response:thank you for your kind words. We hope to be able to accommodate you in the future.

Our stay at this property was most enjoyable. it was just a perfect spot to spend a month away from Michigan winters. The listing description was very accurate. The photo's were right on, but I must say, the home was better than the photo's. The home was outstandingly clean on our arrival. getting in touch with the owner was alway easy and the owner quickly answered any question and kept regularly in touch. The location to shopping and restaurants was ideal. Coconut Point shopping and it's restaurants were outstanding. The beaches are within 20 mins. We particularly enjoyed the scenery and lake by the pool in the lanai. I would highly recommend this rental property. Thanks again Ray & Maxine

Owner response:great working with you and your wife. Thanks for taking care of the house and booking up for next season.

We absolutely enjoyed our month stay at the property. The house exceeded our expectations as soon as we walked in the door. Much of our time was spent around the pool over looking the pond, over coffee in the morning was an excellent way to begin the day. Another highlight for us was the excellent restaurants in the area. Our favourites were P.F.Changs and Chops. My wife and I enjoyed making use of the two bicycles that were available. We also had an opportunity to tour Estero Bay and the Gulf by jetski and would highly recommend this. There were Dolphins following us on either side of the watercraft. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with the owner of the property. If the opportunity ever presented itself again, I would definitely return for another stay.

The home was beautiful. Working with the owner was very easy. He was professional and friendly and he communicated frequently. Even though we were separated by miles of ocean, the owner made the transaction process painless and flawless. I look forward to our next stay.

We really enjoyed our two month stay (Feb. and Mar. 2007) at your beautiful home located in the Copper Oaks subdivision, Estero. The house was tastefully decorated and very central to the airport, most shopping centres, golf courses and beaches in southwest Florida. We were delighted with the lanai--whether it was swimming in the pool, getting caught up on promised reading, bar-b-queing our meals or just relaxing under the warm Florida sun. Our dinners at night by the pool were always enjoyable--especially with the wonderful sunsets and a glass of wine or two. We also made good use of your two bikes by riding them within the subdivision--a very pleasant and healthy experience. During our walks we found your Florida neighbours to be very friendly. Many thanks for allowing us to rent your Florida home; we hope to return in the near future.

This property was everything that we expected and is perfectly located for the beach and golf. The location is very peaceful. The owners were very helpful in recommending things to do in the area.

WE were 100% satisfied with this property. The pool area is idyllic and we loved the morning wildlife on the lake. The house is spotlessly clean and tastefully furnished. We would advise anyone to rent this house. We're looking forward to returning some time this year.
