The location and condo were great. The host is quick to respond with any questions and the unit is well stocked with things you might need. Our view from the balcony was terrific where we enjoyed breakfast watching dolphins swim most mornings. The pool is a few feet from the entry and was also clean. My wife and I enjoyed our stay here and would stay again.

We have been to FMB many times. Marlene's condo was absolutely perfect and we will definitely be going back. Communication with Marlene was quick and easy. The condo was clean, the view was amazing and she literally thought of everything! She had a wagon to load up the beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, shelling bag , can koozies etc. We bought our food at Publix and never left the condo for meals because it was so comfortable and easy. We enjoyed watching the dolphins from the patio and of course the amazing sunsets. Her decorating was updated, beachy and fun. 10/10 would recommend!!

Untimely move

Property was beautiful but unfortunately a water leak developed and we had to move out.
Stayed 12 nights in Feb 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 27 March 2025
Yes, unfortunately this was my first renter since hurricane Ian. I had to go through so many hoops with permits and remodel. My place was absolutely perfect and beautiful once I was able to rent again almost 2 1/2 years later. It was truly a struggle to get back after the hurricane. I put all my heart and soul into it. Unfortunately, when the water was finally turned back on for the renters there ended up being a leak behind the wall that was caused by the construction company that recklessly drilled a screw into the water pipe and did not realize it. They should have done water checks and turned back on but apparently they did not. So of course this has to be addressed immediately. I was in constant contact with the renters and I was able to secure them another place in the same building (an almost impossible task during February high season when nothing is available. Of course, I refunded all their money. Yes it was an inconvenience to my guests and I did my best to make it right immediately, which I did. To make things worse, this all happened the day after I had to bury my brother who died unexpectedly. I was an emotional wreck, but I still made sure to take care of my guests. My thought to a review and a rating is the negligence of the owner. There were very unfortunate circumstances here, but none by my doing as the owner. I went over and above and beyond in this situation. I feel my rating should be based on that. 1 out of 5, I feel is just hurtful and was not the true extent of the efforts I made to make a very unfortunately situation into a very pleasant one. I even offered for guests to come back once I had issue resolved, but they decided to just stay at the other unit which I understood. I have never had a "1" rating in all my reviews so this one did hurt so I just wanted to respond explaining why I did not think the "1" rating was justified. They actually did Love the place and asked about renting it out next year.

Another stay in paradise!

My wife and I made our annual visit to Estero Beach and Tennis Club last week choosing to stay at Marlene's unit on the 10th floor overlooking ....well, everything important on a Ft Myers beach trip......the gulf, the beach, the wildlife, the sunset and crsip mornings, the walkway to "Pinchers" , Bonita and Sanibel! And that was just the beauty and fun of the balcony! The unit was very clean, stylish ans functional and served as the perfect base for a weeklong relaxing beach get away with its proximity to both the quiet EB&TC beach and the more active beach a touch north that had rental umbrellas, jet ski's, etc. Here, you can relax with quiet walks on the beach, reading on the deck, napping in the shade.....but also hit the waves, jog the new wide sidewalks of Ft Myers beach, dance at the local tiki bar, or shop directly across the street at Santini Plaza. (don't forget the sweet rolls early am). Marlene was wonderful to communicate with as she was both timely and accurate with her feedback on what the unit and area had to offer. Can;t wait to come back. Thanks again Marlene!

This beautiful and clean studio condo is right on the beach on the 10th floor. The unobstructed view is gorgeous. There are so many thoughtful items that the host, Marlene, has provided that enabled my husband and I to fully relax and enjoy every minute of our 11 day vacation. She provided coffee, detergent, dish soap, paper towels, tp, beach chairs, wagon, umbrella, linens, towels, among so, so many other things. I took advantage of the massage chair several times. My back always gets sore from all the beach walks. A laundry room is available on ground level and you can download an app on your phone to control the 4 speed queen washers and dryers. There are two working elevators so we never had to wait on one. The pool has a key to get in and out of the gate and was a comfortable temperature. Guests and owners there are very friendly. I walked across the street to the plaza to grab an iced latte at the coffee shop often. The Fish Tale marina sells live bait shrimp and my husband fished on the beach nearly every day. Thank you Marlene, this is in our top two vacations of all time!
