About this property
Private Tropical Retreat - Heated Pool/Spa, Open, Updated, Great Family Space!
Our home away from home is an open plan 3 BR, 2 BA, split bedroom layout. A sun porch with additional daybed and lounge space opens to the screened private lanai with heated pool and spa surrounded by greenery. The sound of the waterfall by day, and the party lights at night, lend a resort feel. There is a large shelf in the pool for lounging, or for our littlest guests to enjoy. Inside, the home has been totally refreshed and refurnished into a relaxing escape for family and friends. The vaulted Great Room includes a spacious entry area, a newly-remodeled open kitchen with island seating for 4, a farm table with seating for 8+, and a living/lounging space open to the Sun Porch and lanai. The 65" TV in the Great Room is wired with internet and ready to stream your subscription services and the cabinet below is loaded with games, cards and puzzles. The leather sofa opens into a queen size sleeper.
Also opening to the Sun Porch, looking through to the pool/lanai, the Primary BR suite features a king-sized bed, 50" TV, ensuite bath, and walk-in closet. On the opposite side of the Great Room, barn doors frame the entry to the guest wing, providing additional privacy for guests or family groups. Guest Rm 1 offers a queen bed with a view of the pool/lanai, Guest Rm 2 features 2 twin beds and an additional 50" television. Both rooms are equipped with mirrored space to work or get ready.
Open to the Great Room, the new Kitchen (2024) features all new appliances, and is equipped with everything you need to cook in or grill. Through the Kitchen, you'll find a mudroom/laundry with full-sized washer and dryer, plus iron and board for guest use. A full-size portable crib, highchair and booster seat await our youngest guests.
The heated pool is equipped with a spa, ledge loungers and floats for your relaxation both in and out of the water. There are also noodles and a water table for the littles. And for those rainy days and evenings, we've converted the garage into a throwback family gaming space complete with foosball, rod hockey, shuffleboard and a 65" TV.
We're not investors; we're homeowners. We've furnished our home intentionally for extended family and friend groups, and tested it extensively on ours! We think you'll love it as much as we do.
We are 30 minutes from RSW Airport; convenient to restaurants, shopping, beaches, boat launch, watersports, golf, putt-putt, and all else SW Florida has to offer. Adult bikes (4), beach chairs (4), umbrella, cooler, wagon and beach towels are included.
Wireless Internet provided. Books and games are located in the Great Room Credenza, along with a wireless printer. Boat/trailer parking are available. Check out our great reviews - thank you to our amazing guests, and Book Early!
Long term stays still available Dec 2025 - Feb 2026! Ten percent Off on Bookings of 10 days or more. Inquire before Booking.
Please Note: All payments must be through vrbo. Thank you.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Linda Mayer
We are well traveled, but have been coming to SWFL to visit friends for more than 2 decades now. We finally settled on a spot for ourselves in 2022, when we stumbled upon this quiet little neighborhood tucked into the otherwise bustling Bonita Beach Road/Vanderbilt/Tamiami corridor. It's been a long labor of love bringing our little place back to life - just finished the kitchen summer 2024 - but totally worth it. Now we're enjoying exploring all of the things to do in SWFL, or floating in the pool planning our next adventure!
Why they chose this property
Located west of Tamiami and just south of Bonita Beach Rd, the property is only 30 minutes from RSW, for an easy in and out, while also being just a few minutes drive from the beaches!
What makes this property unique
We are homeowners, not investors. We've painstakingly remodeled, equipped and furnished our home for the enjoyment of our extended family and friends, then tested it extensively. If you enjoy an indoor/outdoor lifestyle in the privacy of home, we think you'll love it as much as we do. Check out our reviews!
