About this property

Coastal Heaven: Huge Lanai-Heated Pool-Canal w Private Dock-River Views

“Cape Serenity” Escape to this stunning coastal retreat, where every moment is a picture-perfect memory waiting to be made. From the expansive balconies, offering panoramic views of both the river and the canal, to the large lanai with its heated pool, outdoor kitchen, grill, and ample seating for lounging under the sun or stars. Watch the fish dance in the water and the breathtaking sunrise and sunset in this peaceful oasis. Conveniently located within walking distance to a park with a boat ramp, it`s the ideal haven for those seeking relaxation and rejuvenation.
Just a short drive to Sanibel and Captiva Islands, and Fort Myers Beach, embark on endless adventures along the South West Florida waters. Bring your own boat or arrange for a rental to be delivered to our private pier. The boat ride from our dock to the river is just 2 min!

Area attractions: Must see attractions include the Sun Splash Water Park located 10 minutes from our home. More than 2 dozen wet and dry attractions include tube ride, waterslides, lazy river, Cape Fear and more. Golf courses abound. The fishing is great whether you choose Captiva Island, Naples, Pine Island or Fort Myers to begin your expedition. Tarpon, snook, redfish, grouper and others are abundant. There are many islands to explore either on your own or on one of the many tours available. The Yacht Club is owned by the City of Cape Coral and offers a fishing pier, swimming, tennis, a snack bar and full service marina. It is 10 minutes from the house. Sanibel and Captiva have beautiful white sandy beaches accessible by car or boat. Don`t miss the bird sanctuaries, the lighthouse and the amazing shelling available. There are over 35 golf courses within 30 miles.

Other activities: There are many fabulous restaurants in and around Cape Coral. Not far from Fort Myers River District. Go to Fort Myers Beach for great food right on the beach or explore the nightlife at the restaurant/bars downtown. You can drive out to Captiva Island which is very quaint and fun to walk or bike around. Fort Myers Beach has a ferry to Key West. It is a 3 1/2 hour boat ride and you can spend the day or stay overnight-nice trip-interesting place.

Relaxing Stay in a Great Location!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. April was very responsive to all requests and inquires before and throughout our stay. The house was well maintained and perfect for our stay. As advertised, the only way upstairs is via the spiral staircase which can be tricky with large bags - just plan accordingly.

Cape Serenity was perfect for our family of 6 Adults. The home is definitely set up for outdoor living with the pool and lounge area. It was a tranquil setting in a quiet neighborhood. The kitchen was well equipped with what we needed. The home was clean and very comfortable. If our travel plans bring us back to the Cape, we would enjoy booking this home again.

About the host

Hosted by April Woodburn

Host profile image
Our dream was to purchase a second home that we could escape the cold weather, in the winter months of Maryland, so we could boat year round. We looked all over the east coast and Florida before we settled on this home in Cape Coral, it was absolutely perfect for us! Having 4 children and busy careers meant that we can't come for long periods of time, so we decided to share our dream home with others who want to vacation. This is our first vacation rental home but we are loving the experience. We hope you love our house as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

We love this location because of the easy access to so many activities: golf, boating, fishing, beaches. We love our neighbors in this quiet, safe community. They watch the house and keep in contact with us when we are back in Maryland. Sanibel Island is so great for shelling. No one comes home empty handed. Fort Myers beach is a wonderful place to lunch while watching the ocean. There are so many activities available in the area that no one is ever bored. We enjoy just lounging on the lanai and watching the fish jump in the canal. Very relaxing!

What makes this property unique

Having river & canal views in a spacious home with a extra large lanai. This home is breath taking and so relaxing with plenty of room to spread out. Being close to the Memorial bridge it is conveniently close to everything however the neighborhood has no through traffic so it creates a quiet and tranquil atmosphere.
