About this property
Luxury Beachfront Vacation Getaway on Bonita Beach | Sleeps 12
La Playa Casa Bonita — Luxury Gulf-Front Estate | Pool • Spa • Game Room • Elevator
Step inside La Playa Casa Bonita, a breathtaking multi-level Gulf-front estate designed for unforgettable beachside memories with family and friends. From the moment you enter, you'll be surrounded by elegant finishes, soaring ceilings, and stunning views of the Gulf of Mexico from nearly every level.
Stand in the grand entryway and continue left into the spacious living room with 22-foot ceilings, or pause at the beautifully appointed kitchen just steps away — perfect for the gourmet chef in your group (or the private chef you hire). The kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a wine cooler, and fully stocked cookware and utensils, making meal preparation a pleasure. The open floor plan allows you to enjoy sweeping Gulf views while staying connected to guests relaxing in the living and dining areas.
A Sonos central sound system runs throughout the home and connects to the Pandora app, allowing you to enjoy your favorite music from your phone or tablet. Slide open the glass doors from the living or dining room to step onto the covered deck and take in your first up-close glimpse of the Gulf — and your first unforgettable sunset.
Second Level Bedrooms From the entry, turn right down a short hallway to discover the first two of the home's five private bedroom suites — each with its own ensuite bathroom. Tommy Bahama Bedroom — Queen bed, private ensuite bath, and TV. Mermaid Bedroom — Queen bed + queen sleeper sofa, inspiring sunrise views to the east, ensuite bath, and TV. A powder bathroom is also located on this level, conveniently positioned near the kitchen, living, and dining areas.
Third Level — Master Suite & Balcony Retreat Travel to the third floor via the elegant spiral staircase or the glass elevator — either way, the journey is as beautiful as the destination. Captiva Island Master Suite — King four-poster bed, private balcony with Gulf views, office desk, entertainment center, wet bar, and TV. The luxurious ensuite bathroom features a frameless glass shower with dual entry, separate vanities, and an expansive dressing area.
Step outside the suite to access a large balcony with peaceful easterly sunrise views — the perfect place to begin the morning with coffee, a mimosa, or a quiet moment of ocean breeze. Sanibel Island Bedroom — Ensuite bath, TV, and tranquil sunrise views to the east.
Fourth Level — Game Room & Casablanca Suite Continue up to the fourth and final level — where fun and relaxation come together.
Here you'll find: Casablanca Bedroom Suite — Balcony with breathtaking Gulf views, private TV and entertainment center, and ensuite bath. Game Room & Key West-Style Tiki Bar — The two-car garage has been transformed into a vibrant entertainment space featuring ping pong, darts, poker/bumper pool, nautical décor, vintage accents, and family-friendly lounge areas. The glass elevator ride to this level offers panoramic views and a truly memorable arrival. Step through the French doors to the expansive pool and spa patio overlooking the beach. Enjoy outdoor dining, lounge seating, and a beautiful antique teak kayak displayed under the covered seating area — once the lead kayak in the Naples Boat Festival.
A heated outdoor shower and Caribbean-style pool bath with bamboo door offer convenience and charm as you return from the beach or pool.
Fun for Kids — and the “Big Kids” Too The lower-level game room provides hours of entertainment — rain or shine. Whether it's darts, ping pong, cards, or simply relaxing in this tropical-inspired retreat, there's something for everyone.
A One-of-a-Kind Coastal Masterpiece Every detail of La Playa Casa Bonita reflects passion, craftsmanship, and family heritage. From the décor to the artwork, the home tells a story — and now it's ready to be part of yours.
You are only a message away from planning the luxury beach vacation of a lifetime — whether for family gatherings, friends' retreats, or hosting special guests.

Awesome Stay, Amazing Beach House
House was amazing for our family beach vacation. It has everything you could possibly need. When not on the beach, we spent most of the time in the tiki bar and game room. Host was extremely responsive and always available to make our stay the best. We have already booked to come back next year!
Gorgeous, clean house on a mostly private beach. The game room and tiki bar areas are awesome! Great location with close proximity to great restaurants and activities. Would return again!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Super comfortable home with outstanding views.
The house was equipped with everything we could have ever desired. Fantastic experience!
Everything was perfect! From booking to check out! House is stunning & stocked with everything you could possibly need. Beautiful ocean front views with sunset included!

Unbeatable Trip
We had an amazing stay—easily the best Florida yet! The home is spacious and comfortably accommodated our group of 12, and it is even better than the photos. It's exceptionally well equipped with everything you could need, including a fully stocked kitchen, barbecue, and plenty of beach chairs and gear. Check-in was seamless with the key code, and the host was incredibly kind, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay. The location is unbeatable—step outside and you're right on the sand. The sunsets were absolutely breathtaking, whether we enjoyed them from the living room balcony or directly on the beach. Everything about this stay was perfect: beautiful home, incredible beach, and truly relaxing. We would absolutely stay here again!

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Communication
Home and location was beautiful. All bedding, linens and pillows need to be replaced. Property management response could be better.
One of the best properties at which we have stayed. Cleanliness above and beyond. It really made us feel like we were staying in a friend's house. Everything you might ever need was there. The few things that needed attention were dealt with quickly. Beach was awesome as was the ground floor entertainment areas. Thank you.
Property had everything you could want except a dust pan. There was construction on the beach which prevented its use for three days. But on ramps were finally created for access. Noise and lights were excessive but not owners doing. Highly recommend.
This property was amazing. The house had all the amenities you would ever need including the spectacular Tiki Bar and game room area. The owners have created a magical area for entertaining and creating family memories. Sunset views were the best. The pool was perfect being shaded by most of the sun as we had young grandchildren with us. The hosts were super friendly and on point with any questions or requests. We had a wonderful family vacation and will come back in a heartbeat when we can.

Thank you for the great review. Collier Global Vacation Rentals LLC striffs to help make Family members.

We stayed at this property and could not have been happier. The Tiki Bar and Game room were perfect, we used them every night. Plenty of space for the 11 people we had, the elevator was great to have as well. It was extremely clean, great location, and we caught some fish right off the shore.
We celebrated my parents 50th anniversary with family ages 10-74. The house had more than enough room and drinking morning coffee on the balancing while seeing dolphins was amazing! The pool was heated and plenty warm for December swimming. Arlan was extremely responsive any time we had a question. I would highly recommend!
