Gulf Coast Getaway: Luxury Villa Heated Pool, Sunsets & Minutes 2 Gulf of Mexico

Hi Jan, I am thrilled that you all enjoyed your time at Villa Sierra. I'd be happy to welcome you back any time your travels bring you to Cape Coral. All the best :)

Hi Scott, while we appreciate all guest feedback, I must clarify that the home was fully renovated in February of this year and the photos on VRBO are "exactly" as shown. The only changes since those photos were taken are a freshly painted exterior and a new tile roof — I’m sorry if those updates were so visually disruptive that they overshadowed your vacation. Had you mentioned the dish you found less than spotless during your stay, I would have gladly sent our cleaner to wash it immediately to avoid further hardship. Regarding the leather couches and chaise lounges, — all are brand-new, high-quality pieces chosen for comfort and style, though we understand not everyone shares the same taste. Lastly, I was surprised that three guests managed to use all 45 towels, every sheet, and every blanket in the home, leaving them in one large heap. Our cleaning lady is still recovering. That said, I’m pleased the pool — one of the home’s best features — met with your approval. All the best on your travels elsewhere in the future.

Thank you for your review. We were pleased to receive your positive private feedback prior to your departure and are glad you enjoyed your stay. To clarify the electricity charge, this policy is clearly disclosed on the VRBO listing prior to booking. Electricity is billed based on actual consumption only, calculated directly from the local electric company’s website, and this usage data directly from the electric company was shared with you. During your visit, you requested that the pool be heated to 100°F, and our property manager advised in advance that this setting would significantly increase electricity usage and cost. Elevated pool heat, particularly when combined with very low indoor A/C settings, is a major contributor to increased electricity consumption and likely impacted the final amount. We strive to be transparent and upfront so guests can make informed decisions before booking. Utility practices can vary by property, and we encourage guests to review all listing details and house rules carefully. Thank you again, and we wish you well in your future travels.
