A shared laundry room is also available for your convenience.

The outdoor areas invite you to relax and unwind, with various seating options available—whether you prefer privacy or socializing, you’ll find your perfect spot here. Enjoy peaceful evenings by the water and take in the stunning sunset views.

REDFISH ROOM

The Redfish Room immediately gives you a warm and welcoming “home away from home” feeling.

This cozy studio is thoughtfully furnished and fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The well-equipped kitchen allows you to prepare your own meals, which you can enjoy at the dining table in a relaxed atmosphere.

The bathroom features a shower and plenty of towels for a hassle-free stay.

After an eventful day, you can relax in the comfortable bed while watching TV, or unwind on the enclosed veranda, which beautifully extends the living space.

A true highlight is the short walk to the outdoor deck, where you can enjoy a stunning view of the water and experience what may be the most beautiful sunset in the world—every single evening.

Very sweet little canal front hideaway

Lovely, cute little place, wonderful dock on a canal in the adorable SW Florida town of Matlacha. We love the area and this “efficiency” sized apartment was just right for us. Management was very responsive and easy to work with. Recommended!
