The spacious main bedroom features a king bed, a generous closet with sliding doors leading to the pool, and an en suite bathroom with direct access to the pool area.

Each bedroom is equipped with a smart TV for added convenience.
The second bedroom offers a queen bed, ample closet space, and a dresser for extra storage.

Outside, your private dock beckons, offering access to tranquil waters and occasional fish sightings. *While fishing is encouraged, please refrain from cleaning or storing fish inside the house. Thank you.*

Centrally situated, the house ensures easy access to a plethora of attractions:

-Just a 5-minute drive to the Yacht Club public beach and Boathouse tiki bar & restaurant.
-Downtown restaurants and shopping are a quick 5-minute drive, or opt for a leisurely walk or bike ride with the two bicycles provided.
-Fort Myers Beach is a mere 20-minute drive away.
-Access the river via a 10-minute boat ride from the private dock.
-Conveniently located 9 miles from Twins Spring Training and 14 miles from Red Sox Spring Training.
-RSW International Airport in Fort Myers is just 18 miles away.

**Original terrazzo floors cover much of the space. These floors have a tendency to feel `dirty` due to their age. It is just the fine grain of the terrazzo and not outdoor dirt and sand.

**This is one of the first homes in the Cape. If you’re looking for some place without imperfections this is not the house to rent.

**During the summer months, Southwest Florida can get very hot. Heat indexes into the 100s is not uncommon. Our central A/C unit in this classic home can only do so much during these times and local utilities suggest keeping the indoor temp around 78 in the heat of summer. Please understand that even if you try to crank the A/C down to 68 it may never be able to get that low in those high heat index periods.

Thank you for considering Flamingo EsCape as your destination. We look forward to hosting you!!

Nice relaxing place

Great place. Set up for adults and kids to enjoy. Sit by the pool or the river either spot is relaxing. Close to anything you need. Owner is easy to work with prompt and kind. Definitely a place I would stay again.

Awesome hosts

Our hosts went above and beyond to make sure our stay was well worth it. The area is quiet and close to all that you need in Cape Coral - the drive back and forth to Fort Myers Beach is decent, but would recommend staying closer to the beach if that's what you want to do. Pool was great, everything you need is included at the property. Would recommend staying here to anyone spending time in Cape Coral.

Why they chose this property

Cape Coral is like a home away from home. I love the small town feel and peaceful neighborhoods like the one Flamingo EsCape. Cape Coral has a small town vibe, yet everything you want is in your backyard or a short drive away.

What makes this property unique

This house was built in 1959 on one of the first establishments in the Cape. The history makes this house unique and adds to the charm of this mid century build.
