This property is not ready to be rented after being damaged. Repairs are very poor quality, appliances didn’t work properly,floors in kitchen have holes, flooring on stairs loose, musty odor in house probably mold in walls and main floor furniture.

This house was great for the family lots of room and the perfect patio to watch the sunsets. Owners are ready if you have any questions. It was nice to get back to the beach.

Our party of 4 spent our vacation in this spacious home just steps from the gulf waters. This home has everything you need to enjoy a day at the beach - wagons, umbrellas, beach chairs, beach towels, coolers and toys for children. We enjoyed the large covered deck to sit and listen to the sound of the water. We watched sunsets and even saw dolphins. If you plan on cooking this home has plenty of cooking supplies but please note that this home does not provide any seasonings - other rental homes we have stayed at have a cupboard of seasonings other vacationers have left behind. The beds are very comfortable and provided a goods night sleep after hours in the sun. Communication with the hostess was exceptional. She was quick to respond to all of my questons.
The only thing negative we have to add to the review is the house felt like it could of used a real good deep cleaning. It was clean but we found food under the couch pillows and dirt in the corners of the rooms.

The property is exactly as advertised. The beach area is superb and the house is very comfortable. Fort Myers Beach is making good progress after Ian. Do not hesitate to rent this amazing property. Linda was fantastic to work with.

My husband and I, two adult sons with their spouses, and grandson age 4 and granddaughter age 1 stayed for a week in April. The beach was beautiful and the house was equipped with everything we needed; beach towels, kitchen equipment, beach chairs, a charcoal grill, and even a shade tent. Our host Linda was exceptionally responsive whenever I had a question. There is construction going on all over the island, so that can get a bit noisy at times. As far as the house goes I think the only thing I would wish for is a garbage disposal. We did a lot of cooking!
The house is spacious with two living rooms and two wonderful balconies to sit out and enjoy dining al fresco. We will be repeat customers!

This house was perfect for our family. There were 7-9 of us there each day and we had perfect weather all week! Things we especially liked about the house:
-Enough really nice beach chairs, umbrellas, and shade tent. We made a little “camp” on the beach every day and we appreciated all the equipment. And the wagon!! Our son-in-law is expert at putting up and taking down things so that was fun.
-enough dishes and silverware for us every meal. We loved the grill! Our son-in-law grilled every evening and that was fun making different things. We are good cooks and we had plenty of equipment to eat very well all week.
- The sheets on our bed in the master bedroom main floor were great!
-enough room to eat out on the deck every meal, which we did.
-The house was very clean when we arrived early. It was so nice of the cleaners to let us come in with our stuff.
-being right on the beach was the best thing
We really had a wonderful time. Our family, our two daughters and our son plus my husband, are all home builders and also own rentals. So we appreciate a good place to stay and understand the owners desire to please, which she did!
-Here are a few suggestions:
-More Dish towels and dish cloths
- night lights in the bathrooms
-A few lidded Tupperware containers for food storage while guests are there
-a new coffee pot

House was perfect, clean and roomy. Right on the beach, plenty of shells, white beach and amazing sunsets. Our family had a great time.
The host responded quickly.
Only thing, you need to allow extra travel time, approx 1hr, getting off the island in the afternoon.

This is our second time staying here, my family love the house. The beach is close so it was easy to carry all the beach stuff. We will definitely be back.

Did Not Disappoint!
This is an excellent vacation rental property! The host Linda is excellent to work with! Very roomy and great house for large group or family! I was SO impressed with all the things the owner has included in the home, even just the little things! They have thought things out well, as to what you might need while staying there! Highly recommend this property!!!

Enjoyed the short walk to the beach with our grandkids. We had enough room to spread out for quiet time. Kitchen well stocked. Publix handy nearby. Traffic during these dates was so slow! But, the weather was amazing!

Beach stay
Great access to a beautiful beach. Funky Big house with lots of beds and living space. Grocery store (Publix) down the street (walkable) and beautiful Church (Ascension) similar distance the other way. Be aware- have to climb stairs; stock up on paper towels, TP, dishwasher/laundry and hand/shower soap at your first grocery run. Loved our stay!

This was an amazing house! Very clean and well kept. Just a very short walk to the beach, just one house in front of it, but sand from the bottom of the stairs all the way to the ocean. Their were 8 of us staying there, 4 adults and 4 children, it was perfect for us! We definitely would come back and stay here again!!

Fantastic Stay
We enjoyed our stay so very much that one of our guests is making plans to bring a group of friends back next year‼️We were so happy to be allowed to bring our dog on our stay! BTW he loved the water & was a huge hit on the beach💚It’s wonderful for guests to have master baths (2) & 2 full hall baths! Excellent with lots of guests‼️The kitchen was great with the island into the living room& plenty of dining space! It was great to have a washer & dryer but the washer sounds like it’s on it’s last leg!!! The second living room upstairs was great to have a quiet space to enjoy. We felt at home during our stay💚

Wonderful house, just about on the beach
The house is larger than the pictures show. Perfect layout for large group. Loved that there are 2 tv rooms, both very comfortable. Beds more comfortable than our own and the bedrooms as spacious. Incredibly well stocked kitchen with plenty of place settings and seating options. The decks are wonderful and it is truly steps from the beach, easy for my 85 yr old mom to walk to. Linda is great to work with, excellent follow through and a pleasure. I highly recommend renting this property, it has all you need and more.

Property was great. Great location. Plenty of room for everyone - we had five of us and we were all able to have our own room. Beautiful views even though we were behind another house. Short walk to get out on the beach. I was lucky and had the upstairs bedroom and was able to work in the family room and watch the beautiful sunsets. Initially, when we arrived was a bit concerned as the trash was pretty full, but realized when we checked out we left trash and recycling as well as it is picked up earlier in the week. We had quick response and resolution to any issues we had. House does move if it's very windy, but nothing major that made me think - wouldn't do it again. All in all - enjoyed the week with my sisters and cousin relaxing in the sunshine - knowing in the midwest it was cold and miserable.
