Perfect location and house. Lisa was an amazing host - extremely responsive with wonderful suggestions for things to do in the area. Looking forward to going back!
Lisa was an excellent communicator throughout or stay. Great location right across the street from the beach and close to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. the rental had everything we needed.
Thank you for your kind words. We’re so glad you found the home beautiful, cozy, and well located, and that it was a relaxing place for you to enjoy your stay. We truly appreciate you choosing White Sands Getaway and would love to host you again in the future.
What a treasured VRBO find, an exceptionally clean beach house equipped with good size rooms and well stocked kitchen. Bonita Springs beach offers wide fine sandy beaches, perfect for a quiet lazy day. On top of that, you won’t find better Host communication! As far as quick day trips, you’re equally distant from Fort Meyer’s spring training games (Red Sox and Twins), and Naples harbor entertainment area. Treat yourself and go.
The house was very welcoming. It is located right across the street from the beach. The house is well stocked with all the necessities. The host was very responsive and gracious. I wish we could have stayed longer. The sunsets were magnificent.
We had a really nice stay here. The location was perfect, communication with the host was easy, and the house was well stocked and clean.

This location was perfect for our family of four with a very short walk across the street to the beach and fantastic sunsets every night. There's restaurants and grocery stores within 5 minutes as well as mini golf courses and other great attractions for the kids as well. A major perk having a beach wagon, chairs, toys and boogie boards as well!

The White Sands getaway was a lovely home, perfect for our family beach vacation.The home is exactly as it looks in the listing, two bedrooms, comfortable, living, kitchen and dining rooms, access to washer & dryer, and plenty of day-to-day items. The additional amenities of beach, chairs, umbrellas, and kids toys made this very easy for our family of 4.Well, the home is not exactly beachfront, it is truly just across the street and very easy to access. It came with a huge wagon which made it very easy to go back-and-forth throughout the day.The hosts were great, easy to communicate with, and very helpful. Thanks for a great stay!

Absolutely loved how close the house is to the beach. Literally a one minute walk to beach access #3. Lovely and cute place. Had lots of things to help make a great day at the beach. Most everything was very clean; a couple of small things were overlooked but nothing too major. I wholeheartedly recommed this wonderful place!Very easy to communicate with the owner.
