Baseball Family Vacation

A baseball tournament brought us to the area and we had the best week! This house has everything you need for a week of fun at the beach! Bikes, kayaks, beach gear, pool gear and fishing gear! The sleeping accommodations were perfect and comfortable and kitchen was fully stocked for including spices and basic pantry necessities. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend this place!

First time back since Ian

We have been vacationing here for years and this was our first visit in 2 years. Loved the house and location! Not too far to get toddlers to the beach without driving, many of our favorite restaurants back open for us to enjoy. We would definitely rent the same house again.

Beach getaway

The property was amazing! Stunning pool and lanai area with a quick walk to the beach. The property management company was fantastic. The only snafu we had was upon arriving at the property, we did not receive the correct gate code and had to wait to get it which took a while. All in all, I would stay here again.

Review for 5809 Lauder St.

This house was just amazing. We had six adults and 4 kids 3 and under. The house was perfect for all is us. There was plenty of room with each having our own BR and attached bathroom. The kitchen was perfect and outdoor patio accommodated all of us for cook in dinners. The pool and surroundings was so relaxing and fun. Great pool - we all loved it and were there most of the days. And the location was ideal. Very close to the beach, Publix, and restaurants. We will definitely return for another great vacation.

This is a fantastic property for a family trip - plenty of bedrooms/bathroom, pool and hot tub- wonderful layout of home offering privacy to everyone. Plenty of kitchen supplies and plenty of beach supplies- we added a few plus some good beach reads and a beach puzzle in case anyone experiences some rain during their stay - not likely but could happen!

A Perfect Getaway

The home was everything you could ask for in a vacation rental. The pictures on VRBO didn’t do it Justice. Beautiful pool, canal in the back (we actually seen a dolphin one morning) views of the gulf from one of the bathrooms. Less than a 3 min walk to the beach. Quiet friendly neighborhood and neighbors, 1 mile from Publix Grocery store which was a major convenience. Thanks John and Itrip for the attention to detail. 5 star service all around

Excellent family vacation!

Our family of 10, 6 adults and 4 kids age 8-14, really enjoyed this property! The home is well stocked and very comfortable. We especially enjoyed the proximity to the beach. There were plenty of chairs, a beach wagon, and a couple of umbrellas for taking over to the beach in the morning. We found so many beautiful seashells on the beach. It was an easy walk back to the house before the hottest part of the day, which we could spend in the lovely pool. Fort Myers was pretty quiet while we were there. There is still a lot of rebuilding happening. We'd love to return in a few years to see what has changed.

Thank you for the opportunity to host you and your family Corey. We love hearing that you all enjoyed the home and all it has to offer. The summer months are considered off season for Florida and it is typically much quieter than what you would find in the winter. Perfect for those who want to spread out on the beach and relax! Fort Myers Beach is finally coming back to life, with ongoing construction and lots of rebuilding. We would love to have you come back and see how our beautiful beach has come back to life in the future!

We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, the bedrooms were great and comfortable. The kitchen was very nice and and many cooking dishes and seasonings there.No problem with check in. Thought after the price we would get dishwasher detergent for the 7 days, and 2 rolls of TP per bathroom only and 1 roll of paper towels. Sad. 3 of the 5 bikes were not working ell. Biked down bike paths for 2 hrs but the chain came of 10 times.

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad to hear you enjoyed the pool and hot tub, found the bedrooms comfortable, and appreciated the well-equipped kitchen. It’s also great to know that check-in was smooth and easy. We do want to clarify that the amount of dishwasher detergent, toilet paper, and paper towels provided is standard in the vacation rental industry. These are meant as a starter supply, and guests typically purchase additional items as needed for longer stays. Regarding the bikes, the owner has decided to remove them from the rental and instead partner with a local company to provide bike rentals for those guests who would like to rent bikes. This ensures all guests have access to safe, well-maintained bikes during their stay. We truly appreciate your feedback and are glad you had an enjoyable visit overall. We’d love to welcome you back again in the future!

Great house for family getaway

The house was just was described and was perfect for our family getaway. The property manager was responsive. FM beach is still on the rebound and will be for some time. The beach is stunning and just a short block away The house has everything we needed. Our only challenge was the grill (which is a George Forman type electric grill and not a BBQ / gas grill. With two little ones, We had planned to grill for dinner and were not able to (costly expectation) and getting a table at restaurants was challenging and kept the babies up later than we would have liked.

Thank you, Suzanne, for the opportunity to host you and your family. We're very happy you enjoyed your stay, and we appreciate your support of our area’s recovery process. Thank you for your feedback and 5 stars. We're sorry to learn the electric wasn't satisfactory to you. The electric grill is listed in the property description and is located on the balcony. There is also a George Forman tabletop grill in the pantry. We'd like to take this opportunity to explain the owner’s reasoning for an electric grill vs a propane grill. First, electric grills are quite common in our area and specifically in the case of condos. This is a safety precaution for the sake of fires which is a high risk with vacation rentals. The owner is practicing risk management by opting to provide an electric grill vs a propane or charcoal grill. Additionally, the owner is considering rental guests as it relates not providing a propane grill because currently there's only 1 place on the island (Publix) to replace empty propane tanks and they often run out. Not being able to refill a propane tank during grilling is a larger inconvenience for rental guests and something the owner wanted to help guests avoid encountering. We hope to host you and your family again in the future and wish you and yours all the best in the meantime. Thank you again!

Great House!

The house is awesome! Our group (3 couples) has rented several properties on Fort Myers Beach - this house has it all. It was very clean, the beds are very comfortable (might think about bringing your own pillow if thicker foam pillows are not for you), the kitchen has everything you should need, plenty of beach equipment, comfortable furniture on the deck and around the pool, and just an overall great set up. Check in and check out process was very easy and the management team reached out a couple of times during the week. The pool and hot tub are great and plenty of wildlife around the canal to keep the group entertained. The pictures on the site are accurate and everything in the house is in excellent condition. Two of the couples are planning to book vacations at the house with their kids.
