🏡 Caribbean Island Dolphin View – Your Premium Vacation Home in Cape Coral
Direct owner rental! Designed in 2014 and built by us for discerning guests seeking top-tier luxury, quality, and comfort.
Located in the coveted Gold Coast Estates, this upscale waterfront retreat offers four private bedroom suites with 5-zone climate control — individually adjustable for each suite and living area.
Enjoy a stunning 17 m (54 ft) infinity pool with disappearing-edge spa and a spacious two-level sun deck spanning 25.2 m. The mosaic-tiled spa sparkles like a jewel, perfect for both kids and adults. The oversized dock accommodates boats up to 80 ft and features a tiki hut from which you’ll often see the dolphins — the inspiration for this home’s name.
This luxurious Caribbean-Mediterranean-style masterpiece spans approx. 12,939 sq ft of indoor/outdoor living, with 3,069 sq ft under air on one single level, ideal for families or groups of friends.
This incredible home offers high-quality stainless steel appliances, including a Miele dishwasher (Made in Germany), a Kitchenaid oven and microwave, and double sink
Stainless steel refrigerator with ice/water filtration system, dispenser, ice maker, freezer
High-end kitchen equipment for bon vivants - who enjoy the finest most expensive equipment
Professional cooking pots “Fissler’s original pro collection”
Dreizack Wusthoff professional knives sets, s/s made in Solingen
Kitchenaid branded toaster, blender-, hand mixer, and coffee maker
Keurig coffee maker (runs with regular pads)
The “Ferrari from Villeroy & Boch”, series "Amazonia" made of premium bone porcelain for an adequate dining table and High-end BSF cutleries
Kids-cutleries made by BSF for the little guests
Additional unbreakable dinnerware
Kids and baby cups
Very large kitchen with high ceiling
Open serving bar, extra wide and countertops made of high-grade granite
Rich cabinetry
Three of the four suites have direct pool access. Two, the Antigua and Barbados Suites, are equal-size master suites with ensuite bathrooms. The Coca-Cola Suite and Route 66 Suite each include direct bathroom access, and the Route 66 suite also has a 46” Samsung HDTV (the masters have 60” Sony HDTVs). The fourth suite offers 2 XL twin beds, combineable to a king. Additional queen inflatable beds available on request.
Boaters love the easy access — just a 2-minute boat ride to the Caloosahatchee River with no locks or bridges (“Direct Sailboat Access”). The wide canal also attracts dolphins, stingrays, tarpon (especially in spring), and winter manatees. Having owned a boat rental business for over 10 years, we can warmly guide you about rentals and best practices.
Built using the ICF® (Insulating Concrete Form) system, the house features sound and thermal insulation, energy efficiency, allergen-friendly surfaces, and is extremely sturdy.
Electricity Charges
Electric usage is billed at $0.15 per kWh, to be paid by the guest.
Your property manager will show you how to monitor usage at any time during your stay.
Actual costs depend on guest count, weather, and habits — typically between $80 and $300/week.
Security: Ring Doorbell plus two audio Ring cameras monitor the driveway and entrance — for your peace of mind.
We are proud to celebrate 21 years in vacation rental business in 2025.
⚠️ Note: The City of Cape Coral requires a 7-night minimum stay.

What makes this property unique
A/C can be controlled indivdually in each room. Roomy outdoor area with disappearing edge pool and spa (can be heated electrically), south direction. Direct Gulf access, no lock.
We are kids-friendly !
• In this vacation home you find the following features which you might like to know if you have kids:
o Baby Barrier Fence to divide the pool from the lanai – this
helps you avoiding that a child might get into the pool.
There is still plenty of room on the lanai if the fence is on
and you still have a nice view.
o Children’s cutlery from BSF
o unbreakable childrens plates and baby and children’s cups
o Potty seat
o Child proof electric outlets on the entire premises
o Baby bed and booster can be rented from our property
manager for a service fee of USD 25 for both of them for the
entire stay
o Kids games are in the game room / also for adults
The house is allergy-friendly, a non-smoing house, tiles throughout. The house was built with ICF blocks (ICF=INSULATING CONCRETE FORM), which gives greater comfort due to stable temperature throughout the home.
ICF walls reduce air infiltration by 75%: The effects of hay fever, asthma, and other airborne allergies can be greatly alleviated. The house is quieter.
ICF walls allow less than one-third as much sound to pass through than regular frame walls. A house built with ICF block is considered to be earthquake, tornado and hurricant resistant. A study of Texas Tech University proves that wall built with Insulating Concrete Forms withstand the damage and projectiles launched by tornado or hurricane strength winds
