Welcome to Florida Retreat – Your Sunshine-Fueled Slice of Paradise!
Pack your flip-flops and sunglasses—your dream getaway starts right here! Florida Retreat is a 4-bedroom, 3-bath tropical haven that sleeps up to 10 lucky guests. With a heated saltwater pool, bubbling hot tub, direct sailboat access to the Gulf, and a private dock, this is the kind of place that makes you want to stay forever.
Our Story (aka Why We’re Obsessed With This Place): Twenty years ago, we made the best decision of our lives—moving to Cape Coral. Between the sunshine, salty breezes, and boat-to-the-beach lifestyle, we were hooked. Now we’re opening up our happy place to other adventure-seeking, hammock-loving families who want a taste of Florida magic. Mornings here are for soaking in the hot tub with coffee in hand. Afternoons? Boating to Sanibel or making waves with the kids in the pool. Nights? Lanai lounging, drinks in hand, stars overhead.
What’s Inside – and Outside – the Dream: - 2 Luxe King Suites with private bathrooms for maximum pampering - 1 Queen Bedroom and 1 Double Queen Bedroom – because nobody wants bunk beds on vacation - 3 Full Bathrooms, including one with direct pool deck access (hello, convenient!)
The vibe is open, airy, and designed for FUN. The living and dining spaces flow right into the showstopper: the lanai. This screened-in outdoor haven features: - An 8-person dining table for epic family meals - A comfy lounge with a big-screen TV for movie nights, game days, or evening chill sessions - A drink station with a mini fridge and ice machine—so the good times stay cool
Awesome Extras That Make Your Stay Effortless: - WiFi that actually works (yes, even poolside) - Smart TVs in every room - A fully loaded kitchen with everything from spices to spatulas - Tons of towels (yes, even beach ones!) - Starter paper goods to get you going (3 rolls TP per bathroom)
Dock Life = Best Life: Want to level up your vacay? Book a boat through our trusted partners and have it delivered right to your private dock. Cruise the canals, fish off the deck, or set out for a salty sea adventure to Captiva, Sanibel, or Fort Myers Beach. It’s all within an hour of your dockside launch.
A Few Friendly Guidelines: - Guests must be 24+ - No pets, sorry fur babies! - No smoking anywhere in the home or lanai - Garage and locked areas are reserved for owner use - Keep it clean—extra cleaning fees apply for party-level messes (yes, we take pics) - Ask about FREE early check-in or late checkout—we love to spoil our guests!
If you’re looking for a place where pool floats, boat days, beach trips, and belly laughs come standard—you’ve found it. We can't wait to host you at Florida Retreat and help you create unforgettable memories!
See you in the sun!
Thank you, Dean and Ellen

About the host
Hosted by Dean Rossey Jr
Born and raised in the snowy heart of Wisconsin, we traded snow boots for flip-flops when we moved to Florida as a young couple—and we’ve never looked back! The sunshine, the salt air, the easygoing vibe… we were hooked. Now with three awesome kids in tow, our Florida home has become our favorite family playground.
But we’re not just sunshine seekers—we still chase winter thrills in our Upper Michigan vacation homes, where we hit the slopes and snowmobile trails any chance we get.
Our love for travel, adventure, and family fun is what drives everything we do. We’ve created vacation rentals that aren’t just places to stay—they’re places to be together. Think sparkling clean spaces, fun-filled days, and cozy nights that turn into lifelong memories.
Whether you’re here for sun or snow, we can’t wait to share our favorite places with you. Let’s make some magic together!
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with this neighborhood for its unbeatable location and natural charm. Nestled in one of the most peaceful pockets of Cape Coral, it offers the perfect balance between serene relaxation and easy access to everything the area has to offer.
Surrounded by lush landscapes and quiet streets, it’s a true sanctuary for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle. But when you’re ready for a little excitement, you’re just minutes away from vibrant downtown Cape Coral and Fort Myers—ideal for evenings out, shopping, or catching live music.
From fresh-caught seafood at local restaurants to unique boutiques and cozy cafés, everything you need is just around the corner. It’s the best of both worlds, and we’re so happy to share it with you!
What makes this property unique
Our freshly remodeled home isn’t just a place to stay—it’s your vacation sanctuary! Every inch was reimagined with relaxation, fun, and coastal vibes in mind. From sun-soaked pool days to cozy evenings in the hot tub, comfort meets style in every corner.
Ready for an adventure? Hop on a boat from your private dock and in just 40 breezy minutes you’ll be basking on the white sands of Sanibel or Fort Myers Beach. Sun, sea, and serious chill time—it’s all waiting for you!
