About this property

The Reel Escape! St. James City 2/2 with Boat Lift!

Welcome to The Reel Escape, your perfect waterfront retreat in St. James City, where laid-back island living meets adventure on the water. Nestled along a peaceful canal, this beautifully appointed home showcases amazing coastal décor, with light, airy finishes, soothing seaside tones, and stylish touches that create a warm and inviting island vibe throughout.

Start your mornings with coffee on the lounge chairs overlooking the canal, watching boats drift by and wildlife pass through. With direct Gulf access, this home is a boater's dream—featuring a private boat lift so you can bring your vessel or rent one locally with ease. Spend your days cruising to some of Southwest Florida's most breathtaking destinations, including Sanibel Island, Captiva Island, and the pristine, secluded shores of Cayo Costa State Park.

For those who love to explore closer to home, enjoy two complimentary kayaks to paddle the scenic waterways, or hop on one of the two bicycles for a ride through this quiet coastal community.
Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed for both comfort and style. The primary bedroom features a plush king-size bed, while the guest bedroom offers a cozy queen. Need extra space? The den includes a pull-out sofa that converts into a full bed—perfect for additional guests or families traveling together. The open-concept living areas are bright and welcoming, enhanced by the home's beautiful coastal design, making it the perfect place to unwind after a day in the sun.

Whether you're boating to nearby islands, kayaking at sunrise, or simply relaxing canal-side with a drink in hand, The Reel Escape offers the ultimate Florida waterfront experience wrapped in effortless coastal elegance. ***Inquiry about monthly rates
