Cape Coral vacation

This was one of the best places we have ever stayed! We have never had a host like Maggie. She checked to make sure we had everything we needed also she was so prompt anytime we messaged her with questions. The pool was amazing. Being able to rent the boat and take our boys fishing was a huge plus. The house was immaculate. Probably one of the cleanest places we have stayed. Would definitely recommend renting if you are staying in Cape Coral.

Family Vacation

We loved this house! The hosts were wonderful. We didn't have any issues but they were available if needed. We especially enjoyed the outdoor space. We spent a lot of time in the pool. The indoor space was big enough that all 6, plus a baby, had room to enjoy. We were close enough to spend time in Sanibel and Fort Myer, as well as Cape Coral. We would highly recommend this home and would stay here again!

First impressions of the house was that it was beautiful and super clean. It was modern and super spacious, and the view outside was gorgeous. We loved spending time outside in the pool during the day, and staying in the jacuzzi during the night. It’s a great neighborhood to walk around or bike around, and plenty of restaurants and fun places nearby. Maggie, the home owner, was super helpful and a great communicator when it came to answering our questions about the home. We we’ll be back next summer for sure.
