**Original terrazzo floors cover much of the space. These floors have a tendency to feel `dirty` due to their age. It is just the fine grain of the terrazzo and not outdoor dirt and sand.
**This is one of the first homes in the Cape. If you’re looking for some place without imperfections this is not the house to rent.
**During the summer months, Southwest Florida can get very hot. Heat indexes into the 100s is not uncommon. Our central A/C unit in this classic home can only do so much during these times and local utilities suggest keeping the indoor temp around 78 in the heat of summer. Please understand that even if you try to crank the A/C down to 68 it may never be able to get that low in those high heat index periods.
Thank you for considering Flamingo EsCape as your destination. We look forward to hosting you!!

Great place. Set up for adults and kids to enjoy. Sit by the pool or the river either spot is relaxing. Close to anything you need. Owner is easy to work with prompt and kind. Definitely a place I would stay again.
Our hosts went above and beyond to make sure our stay was well worth it. The area is quiet and close to all that you need in Cape Coral - the drive back and forth to Fort Myers Beach is decent, but would recommend staying closer to the beach if that's what you want to do. Pool was great, everything you need is included at the property. Would recommend staying here to anyone spending time in Cape Coral.

Why they chose this property
Cape Coral is like a home away from home. I love the small town feel and peaceful neighborhoods like the one Flamingo EsCape. Cape Coral has a small town vibe, yet everything you want is in your backyard or a short drive away.
What makes this property unique
This house was built in 1959 on one of the first establishments in the Cape. The history makes this house unique and adds to the charm of this mid century build.
