First class location by Lake Britannia with direct gulf access

The villa was better than expected. The location is excellent and the house has been set on the lot so that you would not know if you had any neighbors or not. Very quiet neighborhood. The house was clean, well maintained and was beautifully decorated. The weather during the 5 weeks we were there was perfect so most of our time was spent in the lanai enjoying the pool and the view. Every night we were treated to a beautiful sunset which was the perfect way to end the day. We have rented vacation homes in Cape Coral for 10 years and this was the best rental we have ever had.

We stayed in the house for a week and had a nice time – there were some great things about the house and some not so great…

Good:

• Beautiful home with lots of room. It’s kind of a weird neighborhood driving in with some transitional homes being renovated mixed in among those already renovated and plenty that are in need. Once you get there though it’s a very nice home.

• A great view of a cove on the water with a beautiful pool.

• The local manager, Martin was very friendly and helpful.

Not as good:

• Basic cable only so no ESPN, movie channels or other channels that most people take for granted.

• Wifi was spotty in different parts of the house and generally not that fast.

• The pool deck is dangerously slick – that’s why I might not recommend it for small kids. Just about everyone in our group either almost slipped and fell or did fall.

• We got nickel and dimed on our deposit return. It’s written in the contract so it was totally legal but there is an electricity usage charge. We turned all the lights off when we left each day for the beach or ball fields (we were there for a baseball tournament) but still got a charge for “excess” electricity usage. We also got a $50 charge for not cleaning the BBQ grill – I cleaned all surfaces and scrubbed the grates but failed to empty the grease drip tray (had no idea where it was or that it was required) so they charged us $50.

• Location is not great for going to Ft Myers beach – you’ll be driving for half an hour plus so just be aware of that.

I wouldn’t stay here again but it might be a fit for someone else because it is a beautiful home. Honestly, there didn't seem to be a ton of other 5+ bedroom options so just be aware of the extra charges.

Wir 8 hatten hier einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt, großzügig, voll ausgestattet, gepflegt, faires Preis- / Leistungsverhältnis!

liebe Heike, wir haben uns in eurem Haus sehr wohlgefühlt. und werden sicherlich nochmals buchen in den kommenden Jahren. Das Haus war in bestem Zustand und die Betreuung durch euer Team vor Ort perfekt. Leider waren wir nur zu zweit und konnten die Hälfte des wunderschön eingerichteten Hauses nicht nutzen.

Rat an alle Gäste: Boot mitbuchen: Mit Boot ist es in Cape Coral nochmal so schön.

Verbesserungsvorschlag: das Wlan sollte verbessert werden. Manchmal tagsüber etwas langsam.

Super Lage und sehr schönes Haus. Wir verbrachten fast 2 Wochen in diesem schönen Haus. Die Buchung und Abwicklung war hervorragend und unkompliziert. Vielen Dank an die Familie.Die täglichen Sonnenuntergänge waren super. Auch die Ausstattung des Hauses hat keine Wünsche offengelassen. Wir werden wiederkommen!
