The house was clean and spacious. Our family was comfortable and relaxed. We enjoyed the terrace in the afternoons and the bottom floor was great for happy hour. Barbecue was clean and the outside bathroom was clean and new. The only thing that needs to be changed areboth refrigerators. The small refrigerator does not cool enough but the freezer is good. The kitchen refrigerator is really old. Overall everything else was great. I’m glad Fort Myers is rebuilding again and we can enjoy their beaches

Beautiful home and tons of space but could use a little TLC. The views are amazing! We had a couple issues and property management did their best to handle and were very responsive. They were kind enough to give us a gift card and apple pie for the inconvenience caused by the issue we had. A lot of the beach was closed off due to the safety of baby birds hatching, but we still had enough space to enjoy the beach at the water. Great area for bird lovers. The beach is huge - about a 4 minute walk to get to water's edge, but very private. We enjoyed our stay.

South end of Ft Myers Beah

Nice out of the crowded areas on south end of Estero Blv. Had a nice time even though the water quality was poor. It is peaceful when the bridge construction is done. Great views from the house updated inside. About 300 yards from the water but the whole beach is yours.

Nice House

The house was lovely. I am sure this is a great place to stay when the weather cooperates. We had severe wind and flooding rain during our entire stay. We would liked to have known that we would have to travel 30+ minutes for any indoor activities. We were provided a list of many outdoor activities by the company however, a list of indoor ideas would have been extremely helpful.

Paradise @ Fort Myers Beach!

This place was fantastic for our family and has been labeled the 'best place we've ever stayed!' by all. The house and its amenities are all encompassing. They provided so many things for our enjoyment, we didn't even use them all! Communication with the rental property managers was perfect. Access to the beach was good, a little walk (which we need), but never crowded. Like having your own private beach. Thank you so much!

Paradise

The house was amazing, the view was gorgeous and the weather was perfect. Though it was sad to see Fort Myers with so much construction, it was nice to be there without the enormous crowds. No complaints about the house, but beach toys for the kiddos would’ve been nice and maybe a wagon to haul it all in. The walk to the water is significant. But we loved it, this maybe the house return to year after year ❤️

Nice home for fMLies

Big and spacious for multiple family members. Beautiful views from comfortable large deck. It is about 400 yards from the water so you need to take that into account. We had a wonderful stay. However, this was one of the only places rented along the entire Estro Blvd due to the hurricane damage. We did have problems with biting sand fleas and the red tide caused allergic reactions from some family members. But I think this is just a left over of the hurricanissues
