Hosts were excellent. House was a perfect home base. We had everything we needed to cook and enjoy the stay. Pool and hot tub were both great as well. Hosts were communicative and gave us recommendations for local restaurants and events during our stay.

Fantastic Family Stay

Our family of 4 loved our weeklong stay at this property. The house was incredibly clean and was stocked with pool and beach essentials. The outside pool area is where we spent most of our time and our young kids absolutely loved it! Would stay here again without any hesitation whatsoever.

Perfect Cape Coral Getaway

We had an amazing time at this beautiful vacation home! The pool was perfect for relaxing during the day, and we loved sunning by the canal and soaking in the hot tub in the evenings. Grilling outside and spending quality family time made it even more special. The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Steve was a fantastic host—very responsive and a great communicator. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!

Fantastic home in Cape Coral

Very pleasant and comfortable home. Plenty of space to share with visitors. Wonderful pool patio that is sunny all day. I used the bikes multiple times, there are many fun places to visit nearby. Very quiet location. Would highly recommend this home for families. Well stocked kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, spices. And the huge counter island is the perfect place to gather and enjoy time together.

It’s a Winner!

We stayed for 8 wonderful days. Everything anyone could ask for was included in the furnishings and kitchen supplies. But it was the outdoor lining space that was over the top! The lanai, pool, hot tub and dock on the canal were where we spent all our time. Hoping to go back next year.

Wonderful

It was a awesome home. It had absolutely everything you could need in it. Cleaning supplies, batteries, plastic bags, some condiments in fridge, pool floats, When I go back I will defiantly stay here again. The pool area is great, yard is landscaped higher so when sitting by pool you have a great view of the water. Would 100% recommend. Perfect

Great Vacation!

My wife and I had not been in this area of Florida for quite sometime. We enjoyed the beautiful house and the amenities. The pool and hot tub were Great! Even though we were not on the beach, we were able to take our grand-daughter to the beach a couple of days. The house was well equipped with all we needed. The owners were ready to help if we needed them as well. Overall we had a great time.

Dolphins in the backyard!

This was an amazing, well kept property. Great kitchen space for making meals with lots of spices, warm pool, hot tub, bikes and kayaks were in good condition, nice quiet neighborhood, and close to many attractions. Pool service and lawn care staff arrived without notice, but they were professional and friendly. Very attentive hosts. Only thing missing was a clock by the pool - but no biggie as we were on Florida time! Would definitely stay again. Thank you!

Needs AIr Conditioning attention

Home was great other than the AC!!! Cape Coral, Ft Myers Area is a warm weather destination. Upon check in homes interior temp was 80 degrees. Our first full night of sleep was how should I put it… sticky.!!! During daytime hours AC would not maintain what was selected on the thermostat. 68=73degs. We were afraid to put any more strain on an already subpar system for fear of AC breaking altogether. 73 ya your thinking wow what a baby!!! With 80% humidity not good!!! Other than that the house is as advertised. Little dated but pictures show that. Just needs a new air conditioner that’s all.

Response from VrboOwner on 4 Aug 2022
According to a Google search and checking with our technician, a general rule of thumb for home air conditioners is that the air should be about 15-20 degrees cooler than the air taken in. You didn't mention AC concerns during your stay or we would have had someone come check it out. Upon departure, when you told us the A/C might need servicing, we accessed the thermostat remotely and it was 92 degrees outside and 73 inside, which seems reasonable. Also, the AC was just serviced and recharged in mid-June. We, of course, hate that you were disappointed. We always hope our place is perfect for our guests.

The Real Deal!

My husband and I stayed at Steve and Steph's home for a week. Everything from the reservation process (carried over from when the pandemic started and NYS had strict travel rules for us) to checking out on our last day was perfect! Steve and Steph are incredible hosts. They were so willing to work with us when we encountered travel restrictions in 2019 and then again this trip when our flight was cancelled and our arrival was delayed by a day due to having to have to drive from Buffalo. When we got to the house, we completely relaxed thanks to the beautiful setting! Whether you want to sit by the pool on the very comfortable furniture, relax on the beautiful dock, or even sit inside and lounge on the sectional watching tv, there is something for everyone!! We rented a 25' bowrider, which fit perfectly on the outside of the dock, and took daily rides, with the river being so close and easy to get to. The southern exposure made the pool superb for the sun lovers. We also used the bikes, beach chairs and umbrella. The kitchen is very well equipped and we used it and the grill for a few dinners. The house and all of the extras made for a perfect vacation!! We will definitely rent this house again!!!!

This is a beautiful place. Well equipped, and with more supplies than at any home we have stayed in for the last 6 years. The cable TV had way more channels than most rentals (for those rainy days). Having Roku in the bedrooms was also a surprise. Lots of linens, towels etc. Just a short hop to Walmart or Publix for food. We really enjoyed our time there and may stay again next year

Wonderful Home

Our family group of four had a great time in this home. It is extremely clean and well-stocked with essentials, both in the kitchen and bath. The location on the canal was absolutely lovely, but the star of the property is really the private enclosed pool and hot tub, which we used every day.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. It was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was wet equipped and the kayaks and bikes were a plus. The Property Mangers (owners) were very responsive and great to deal with. Highly recommended!!! Thanks to Steve and Steph...

Spectacular Place to Stay

What a great place to stay in Cape Coral. First, the photos accurately reflect the house. The place was very clean which is important to us. The pool was great. The Tiki Bar area was a great place to sit and have morning coffee and lunch. This was the first time out of the many times we have stayed in Cape Coral that we saw a dolphin in the canal. Swam right by the dock. Neighborhood was nice and quiet. Absolutely recommend this house and host
