We spent the month of Jan. 2014 in this lovely condo at Cypress Woods. This non-smoking condo is spacious, well maintained, and stocked with necessities. I especially liked the thoughtful floor plan as the guest bedroom/bath had privacy and plenty of closet space and the master bedroom/ bathroom & closets were large. I chose this unit because it is on the ground floor with a double garage, and very walkable to the pool, fitness center, tennis courts, clubhouse & golf. The owner also arranged for me to walk through this unit during the summer, so I could see exactly where we would be staying in Jan. Rest assured, it met all my expectations as this was our first time renting and I was not disappointed when we arrived in Jan.
We really enjoyed the wonderful walking and biking trail through this beautiful development daily. The fitness center offered yoga on Monday mornings, various exercise classes, and pool aerobics. Sunday Brunch at the newly renovated club was nicely presented as well as lunch in the Grill. My husband enjoyed the aqua driving range and they allow you to walk the golf course after 4 p.m. He was very pleased with the availability of tee times and the staff put him with a group easily. The condo had beach/pool gear, grill, coolers, and enough room to bring your bikes.
The location is very convenient to I-75 for trips to the airport, as well as Target, Panera, a nail salon, Publix, Walmart, etc on Immokalee Rd, however, it is a bit of a drive (~35 minutes) to downtown Naples if you like to avail yourself of all the fine dining on 5th Ave/3rd Ave during the high season. We found ourselves using the interstate quite a bit in the evenings to avoid the busy traffic. Also, the greenskeepers start grooming the first teebox a bit early, so early risers can anticipate that activity. I-75 does create a bit of road noise, but there is a lake with a fountain that is a nice buffer while on the lanai.
The owner was absolutely GREAT to work with, he provided specific instructions with a picture of items necessary for security. The gate codes were easy to use and he responded to emails/questions very promptly. He even arranged for an interim housecleaning for me and accommodated me when I needed to change the date. We could not have asked for better service, and I am certainly able to recommend this owner and this lovely condo to any of my friends or family interested in beautiful north Naples.
