Relaxing Vacation

This unit was perfect for our trip. It's just a short walk to the beach and the unit has beach chairs an umbrella to use. We enjoyed being able to sit outside in the evening on the patio. There are several restaurants and bars close by to enjoy good food and beverages. Bob and Molly are great hosts and even reached out to us before we got there to get our arrival time so they could have the lights on if it was late. Thank you so much for sharing your beach cottage with us. We will absolutely be back again!

Ok

Bob and Molly were excellent hosts. The major drawback was the new construction going on all around us. Noisy. But that isn’t the host fault and it soon will be done in their location!

Perfect for a small family!

Our family of three stayed at the cottage and loved the location...an easy walk to the beach and a short drive to the shops and restaurants. Molly and Bob have a wonderfully equipped location both inside and out, and were quick and easy with communication needs. We had a wonderful visit to Fort Myers!

About the host

Hosted by Bob and Molly Orvis

Host profile image
My husband and I are retired and live the island lifestyle. I was a nurse and my husband worked in landscape and at different health facilities.

Why they chose this property

Our property is a duplex cottage and has been in the family since early 1900’s. There is nothing like island living!

What makes this property unique

Our cottage is a 100 yard walk to the beach. Swimming, sunbathing, playing in the sand, and beautiful sunsets are at your fingertips. We are walking distance from restaurants, downtown, a large library, water park, and gym. There is also a island trolley stop around the corner to take you where you need to go. Jet skiing and parasailing are available down the street from the cottage. On site, we have two patios (covered and uncovered) with BBQ grill, and a hammock.
