About this apartment rental

We're back and better than ever following Hurricane Ian!

Fish Bowl Upper is a beautifully renovated 3 bedroom, 2 bath, 2nd floor apartment located mid island in a tranquil neighborhood. It is just a quick walk to the beach mid-way between two beach access points. We provide hotel quality linens that are always professionally laundered and fresh for your stay. Located in a quiet neighborhood in the much desired Mid-Island, is just short trolley ride to downtown Fort Myers Beach where you find the famous well-known Fishing Pier and Times Square plus plenty of restaurants, pubs, shoppes and entertainment.

The kitchen is beautifully upgraded and fully equipped. The dinette area can seat 8 plus there are 3 stools at the counter. Wonderfully comfortable living room has a sectional sofa bed, love seat and two chairs plus TV. There is a TV in each bedroom also for a total of 4. The bathrooms have been upgraded, and the entire unit has been freshly tiled and painted. There is a hairdryer provided for your convenience. Seven ceiling fans for comfort.

The heated pool is shared with the upper level but there is a private grill and washer/dryer. Beach items are provided such as a cart, towels, umbrella & chairs. Roomy lanai for relaxing.

Water activities abound with fishing charters, scuba and snorkel adventures, jet ski rentals, para-sailing, etc. Fort Myers, Bonita Springs and Naples are all modern cities with plenty of shopping, dining and sight seeing to experience.

While the beach is as inviting as ever, please note that the Fort Myers Beach area is rebounding from Hurricane Ian and not all amenities are available yet. Construction and rebuilding is present on the island and moving fast. The current status of restaurants and other amenities on the island is in a state of change and island amenities may not be available or operating.

Estero Island has numerous restaurants and night life for your choosing, and you are in the middle of it all location-wise. Water activities abound, with fishing charters, scuba and snorkel adventures, jet ski rentals, parasailing and other close by things to do.

Fort Myers, Bonita Springs and Naples are all modern cities with plenty of shopping, dining and sightseeing to experience. The South West International Airport in Fort Myers is close by for convenience as well.

Sorry no spring break groups allowed except families!

Dog friendly restrictions and fees apply. Dogs are permitted up to 25 lbs and non-aggressive breeds only with pet fee paid in advance. Limit of two. Fee applies.

A couple issues upon check in, everything was handled even on a Sunday. Very clean home. Short walk to beach, several sand bars during low tide. Very good shelling. Just an enjoyable time.

We loved our stay at the FishBowl Upper! It had everything our family of 5 needed: pool, plenty of sleeping space, living space and the large screened in porch. It was also right across from the beach which allowed us to hit either the pool or the beach whenever we wanted. Communication with the property manager was easy and I always received a quick response. I did rate cleanliness 4 instead of 5 due to a few issues upon checkin. It didn't mar our stay at all but was worth noting and I did report to the property manager who did quickly respond. If we make it back to FMB, we will look to stay at the FishBowl if it's available.

Large place, we had 9 people (4 adults and 5 kids) and all fit comfortably. Plenty of parking space. Short walk to the beach, beach wagon provided. There was an extra fridge downstairs which was helpful for all our food and drinks. The pool is much smaller than it appears online but the kids enjoyed it. The power button on the dryer looks like it's on its last leg but I got it to work after fiddling with it for a while. We had a fuse issue while using a blow dyer in the bathroom and we locked ourselves out of the storage room downstairs but both times management was quick to respond. Only complaint is there's no vacuum cleaner! We swept up sand and crumbs with a broom but a vacuum would be nice for the area rugs.

Excellent vacation rental!
Excellent vacation rental!
Very clean, spacious place. The staff was responsive to any questions or requests we had! We had a group of 6 people staying in the fishbowl upper and we had plenty of room! Lots of games for kids and family to play! TV's had cable and Netflix access. Has Wi-Fi as well. Super close walk to beach access. Quiet neighborhood. Storage area under the screened in front porch has lots of beach accessories like coolers, wagon, beach chairs/umbrellas and sand toys for the kids! Pool area was clean and the pool was heated! Nice to come home from the beach all day and swim in the saltwater pool. 2 grills in the pool area for cooking your own meals if you don't want to take the drive down to the pier. It truly is located mid island, but it's about 3 miles away from the pier. So we rented a car to make the commute downtown easier, although traffic was always a 20 min drive down to the major shopping stores and the lani Kai and other restaurants. You can also rent bikes, scooters or golf carts to make the commute easier as well! This is located very close to Publix grocery store! We would absolutely rent this location again if we decide to come back to fort myers beach!

The Fishbowl offers wonderful space, location, pool and all the items you would want in a vacation rental! You are right across the street from beach access 15. At sunset local neighbors play their conch shells to end your beach day. It was such a fun event. The Fishbowl has 2 beds on one floor then the primary suite a floor up. It was a wonderful rental. Thank you!
