RENOVATED GUEST HOUSE. BIKE TO THE BEACH!

Thank you so much for viewing our beautiful guesthouse on VRBO!

When you search the map for our property make sure to put in 15 2nd St., Bonita Springs, FL 34134. Otherwise, you may end up in Olde Naples because there’s the same address there in Naples.

AND:

Here is a comprehensive overview of what we have to offer:

FEES:

We are travelers and we do not like to go through websites looking for great deals only to find at checkout that the price has doubled due to extra fees.

We do not do that. Only taxes and the VRBO commission are added. The $10 cleaning fee is refundable if you stay more than one night.

Please see below for a comprehensive overview:

LOCATION:

The guest house was built in 1968 but it was recently renovated. We are in the North Naples area (Bonita Shores) and our property is located 1.7 miles to the beach.

Our neighborhood is Bonita Shores. In Collier County. The place to be.

We are West of U.S 41 and are situated on 0.75 acres and we are located about 300 yards from the inland waterways.

Our Shores area is unique now as it is only partially re-developed.

Every other community in the Gulf Coast US 41 Corridor has been wrecked down and rebuilt over the years. Olde Naples is in their fourth renaissance and we are undergoing our first!

This may be the last time you can experience the Olde Naples as it used to be.

We have had three total generations grow up in our neighborhood and some of the descendants of the original owners are still here. We are a mature neighborhood with many people that have been here for a long time. Completely unique for our area now.

As a consequence of the owners and resident’s long-term domicile, the Shores is a very safe area and we are a very close and tightknit community.

We are a very unique neighborhood.

There are many reasons to stay to vacation West of US 41.

If you vacation farther East in Naples you have to contend with East and West traffic.

That can be difficult but it is very easy in the US 41 West Corridor to get wherever you want with no traffic, especially during the winter.

Our Shores property is not your typical 2/2 apartment complex built in Naples for snowbirds and tourists.

You will not be sharing the property with a lot of people coming down to Florida for the typical Naples or Florida “experience”

Local neighborhood, private and quiet.

Not an apartment building.

Everything is nice and clean and new but our property is old Florida. It’s the old Florida style.

Perfect location, nice and new and very spacious with lots of land in a very quiet neighborhood.

Because our area was built so long ago we are well developed and there are many opportunities for food, drink and shopping in our immediate neighborhood:

Doc‘s Beach House,

are all waterfront restaurants within 1.5 miles of the guest house. You could walk or bicycle to any of those three! There are also many other good restaurants, some with live music and dancing within the same distance.

If you are using this on a mobile device the video will not appear. On a PC the second picture should be a video. It is a short video shot by a guest about a year and a half ago. He was a videographer and a really great guy and I hope you get to see it!

THE GUEST HOUSE:

New Serta perfect sleeper king size mattress

55 inch flatscreen TV.

The guest house is a freestanding building. The main house is also on the property but the guest house has two private entrances and has it’s own private driveway.

The guest house is 579 ft.² and it is an independent building. It is one large room that can sleep up to five people easily. The bathroom is private and has its own door.

A gas barbecue grill is on your own driveway for your use.

The backyard is very private and is perfect for children. There’s plenty of trees to climb and you can use the whole back property for your enjoyment!

We have high-speed Wi-Fi. You can stream videos on it with no problem.

At your entrance there’s also a carport that we store towels and chairs and bicycles and sunscreen and the washer and dryer. All of that is for your use. We share the washer and dryer (laundry detergent included) but everything else is fair game!

A pack and play and highchair are available upon request at no extra charge.

A blow dryer, ironing board and iron are included. We also have European electric converters.

We have dual air conditioners to make sure that you will stay cool even on the hottest Florida days.

There is a premium stand up shower but there is no bathtub.

There are 4 bicycles in the carport and you can use them anytime!

We are always here for guests but we interact only as requested. We live on the same property but you will have a ton of privacy because we are always busy!

The Naples/FortMyers casino is about 3 miles away from us. They just opened a new restaurant called “The Brass Tap“ which is absolutely terrific! You can also do pari-mutuel gambling and poker tables are there. It is quite an impressive establishment.

Everglades Wonder Gardens in downtown Bonita Springs is about 4 miles away. It’s a zoo that was started back in the 30’s by the Piper family. The Piper’s are still located in Bonita Springs. It’s an old-time Florida roadside stop. It almost disappeared a few years ago but the City of Bonita Springs stepped in to save it.

Our county has a $58 million water park about 6 miles east of us. It’s only open in the summer but it is top notch and first class.

There is a Super Walmart about 3 miles south of us. Easy roads to get there with very little traffic. Even in the winter.

Everything as noted (and much more) is available without having to go onto the main roads! That is the key to being in the West area of US 41 corridor area instead of East of our area.

Mini golf and “ the Royal scoop“ ice cream store are within walking distance. We have many beach bars and other restaurants within walking distance.

Lovers Key State Park, Big Cypress Swamp Sanctuary and the Florida Everglades are all a short drive away.

Many kayaking and boating opportunities are available very close to us.

Southwest Florida international Airport is 22 miles north of us. It’s an easy drive on the Intestate to Bonita Beach Road and to your guest house.

You can drive the beautiful beach road to Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel and Captiva. All on back roads.

We have noted our favorite places. These areas are consistently popular with our visitors. We can assist you in devising a schedule based upon your interests. Between my wife and my daughter we have a combined 79 years of living here. We know what to do as a family, as individuals and through the eyes of our 15-year-old daughter.

Our area is a tourist destination and there are so many things to do that we could never even list them all!

We are here to assist as much as you would like. We can also make it completely private and you’ll never even see us!

Or anything in between. Just know that we can provide excellent service and information and can tailor our recommendations to meet and exceed your expectations.

Come and visit our beautiful area! You’ll love it!

Warmest regards,

David, Ginger and Ava Thompson .
