Thank you Melissa. Your family were the model guests, taking wonderful care of our home. We appreciate your feedback and hope to have you return in the future.
Great place for family reunion. Beach is beautiful
House is perfect for us. Beautiful sunset view and from 2 decks. Very spacious and light. Ft Myers Beach still recovering from Ian and Milton so construction traffic can be slow but Publix supermarket very close and many restaurants nearby. Owner easy to talk to and contact. Would do it again!!

Thank you Eugene for your review. It was a pleasure hosting your group and we look forward to having you return in the future!
This house is great! Centrally located in the center of the island. Very clean and great owner to work with. We booked for the following year on day 2 of our week long stay. Walking distance to Publix and the new Junkanoo/Fresh Catch location. I have been renting homes on the beach for 10 years and this was by far the best. Unfortunately all of the other ones are gone as well but we will keep returning to this property as long as we can.
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.

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.

We thank you so much for the wonderful care you took of our home, Diane!
Please keep us in mind if you return to the local area. Many blessings to you and your family!
Perfect location. Easy private beach access steps away. Plenty of room in the house and on both beachfront decks. Kitchen was well equipped as we like to cook; especially fresh fish from the nearby Farmers Markets. Great communication with the owners. Will stay here again next year!

Thank you David for your 5 star review!
We welcome you back next year-your group took wonderful care of the home and we couldn't ask for better guests!
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.

About the host
Hosted by Linda DeVarona
Our family has always enjoyed the beach. Our love of S.Florida and its diverse population is why we keep this location as our permanent home. Living on the east coast, allows us the 'best of both worlds', with the Gulf just two hours away.
Why they chose this property
When our children were young, we enjoyed going to a beach that typically was not too deep for our toddlers. This allowed us some flexibility in relaxing on the sand, with out the constant threat of deep waters for the kids. Typically, the warm Gulf waters will settle right about knee length, which is great wading water for kids. Teens can enjoy skim boarding on the beautiful waters. Jet Skis, paddle boards, parasailing, boating, fishing and tubing are some of the fabulous water sports are all at in your reach at Ft. Myers Beach.
What makes this property unique
We are afforded the luxury of being beach side (no crossing busy Estero Boulevard) yet, right off the direct sands of the gulf allowing for less expensive pricing. Direct Gulf front typically runs 10-15% more than the 'one back' homes. A true plus!!
