Cute little home just a short walk from Ft Myers Beach access and across from canal and quiet residential neighborhood. Well stocked kitchen - had everything we needed for our short stay!Could use a little more TLC in the backyard space to make it more inviting. Watch-out that bathrooms are super tiny. Overall great location for time at the beach!

Perfect size vacation stay

A few steps from the beach, spacious living room, nice secluded patio. Everything we needed to start our comfortable stay is here, and the grocery store is only a mile away. My entire family was very happy we chose this for our home away from home.

Perfect stay, great proximity to beach

Myself, my daughter and 1 of her friends traveled with us….we loved the house and its proximity to the beach. It’s about a block away and was close enough to come back to have lunch and then go back. We had plenty of room for the 3 of us and would have had plenty of room for more. Would definitely book again.

We had a perfect week here. The house is well located to take advantage of all Fort Myers Beach has to offer and both the trolley and the beautiful beach are just a few minutes walk away. Comfortable beds, plenty of hot water, cute decor, nicely stocked and inviting. The host communicated well, and check in was a breeze. The outdoor patio could use a bit of a spruce up and the yard is not completely fenced in - but it was nice to have a place to sit, and have our dog be welcomed. We would definitely stay here again. P.S. thanks for the mobile speaker it was an unexpected and welcome touch.

Adorable Place!

We loved our stay at this cozy beach house. It was super clean and decorated so cute. It was a short walk to the beach, which allowed us to get our steps in! The kids loved the hot tub and collected some beautiful shells. They were already asking when we would be back before we even left. Next time we will bring a wagon for our beach stuff. Thanks for a fantastic friends weekend!

Perfect place and location!!

This home is so beautiful, we love the canal views from the living room window. The hot tub is so wonderful to use in November since it gets cool at night. The beach is literally a block away and the home is so close to anything you want to do. It is well equipped for cooking if you choose to and Sarah was very responsive to my messages if I had any questions. We will be booking this lovely home again hopefully in the near future!!

plus pups

I had messaged to ask if I could have more than one 'well behaved dog' and they said yes. It was a very nice stay. Clean, convenient and basically anything you could want. Ft. Myers has a ways to go to recover to pre-Ian condition but you have the beach to yourself and you can find places to eat with no difficulty. Quiet getaway.

quick weekend getaway

House was perfect. Very clean. Beautifully decorated and stocked with everything we needed.Great location. We walked the beach every morning and evening. Lots of shells and beautiful sunsets. Still a lot of rebuilding going on but nothing that would hinder any plans. Some restaurants are open near where the pier was. I would not hesitate to return.

House near beach

Excellent house for those that would like to walk the beach….Literally about a block away. This is a quiet little neighborhood. There are small houses, nestled amongst mansions on this island. As you drive around, you will see still the Ramas of the storm Ian. This three bedroom house is clean and has all the amenities you need.

Very cute little cottage

Definitely a Florida style vacation home. Plenty of room for family. Large dining room table big enough for the whole family. Lots of space. Cute rooms and decor. I preferred entering through the side door closest to the laundry room to leave dirty shoes and towels as to not track sand into the kitchen and to leave other things in the way of the kitchen. Comfortable stay fir me and my pet.

Beach House Weekend Gateway

Lovely property with easy walking distance access to beach front. Unexpected surrounding community very much still struggling to rebuild after the last Hurricane hit to the area. There are no walk-in distance restaurants or a true commercial downtown to visit. Quite desolate. But if you’re in for quite time at a beach for “yourself “ without the crowd madnesses…this is it!
