Bonita springs property

Nice location for restaurants, beach, grocery and other activities. Heated pool was great, kids spent a lot of time playing and swimming. Clean and cutely decorated. Plenty of space for our family, and communication when needed from home owner was great.

Great home base

We spent 3 nights in the home while visiting family in Naples. Home is very well equipped with everything you could need, beach chairs, trash bags, beach towels, games and children's books. Located in a quiet neighborhood and close to Publix and other convenient stores. Pool was clean and heated with plenty of seating options on the pool deck. I would stay here again, which is always a good thing! Our only difficulty on the trip had nothing to do with the VRBO is the local beaches are difficult to access after the hurricanes last year, combined with snowbird season increasing population. Clam Pass Beach had the most available parking and arrive before 11am.

Family vacation

Thank you Steve and Nicole for sharing your home. The house and location were absolutely perfect. Your house has everything in it that anyone would need for preparing meals spices, pots pans dishes even dishes for infants etc. Your home is spacious, plenty of bedrooms and comfortable beds to hold our family. The heated pool was a huge hit with my two granddaughters and grandson even the adults loved the pool temperature. We appreciated the house location was within minutes for grocery Shopping, drugstores, clothes and souvenir shopping. Close to restaurants, putt putt golf and the beach. We had a great time!

Thankful for Thanksgiving Oasis

The house was beautiful and accommodated our family and extended family for a Thanksgiving break! Unfortunately the pool was only heated for half of our stay due to heater issues. The owners were responsive and we were able to enjoy the pool for the last part of our stay. Location was great- close to beaches! Game area was awesome!

Great family getaway

This house was perfect for my family and my brother's family to stay while visiting our parents. The home was clean, the pool was great and the ping pong table was used every night after dinner. Conveniently located to grocery stores and restaurants and only 15 min to the beach. We had a fabulous getaway over the 4th of July!

Family Trip for a Relatives Wedding

The house had plenty of space for our family in town for a cousins wedding. The kids loved the pool and game area. Everything you could need for a day at the beach (trust us we run a beach store in DE). Thoughtful with the amenities that went above and beyond, dish soap, laundry soap, hand soap, toilet paper. Shampoo and conditioner, etc. Plenty of space to gather, relax and dine together.

Everything was perfect! Wonderful, clean and fully equipped place to stay for a week!

The Pelican Place was well maintained, clean and was better (and bigger) than it looked in the pictures! We had 7 adults and 4 boys under the age of 7 and there was plenty of room to accommodate all of us. The pool was a hit with the kids and there were plenty of toys, chairs and tables around the pool provided for guests. The kitchen had plenty of dishes, utensils and cookware to make dining in easy! Quiet subdivision located minutes away from stores, beaches and restaurants! Thanks for a great stay... we'll be back!

Great weekend getaway

Had a great stay here! The house was super clean and as described. The his+hers shower heads in the master bathroom was an awesome feature. There were also plenty of towels for both bathrooms and for the pool/beach, and the kitchen was stocked with everything you’d need to cook a meal. All 8 adults enjoyed the space and relaxing in the backyard pool, with the tropical landscaping and privacy fence. Would recommend this booking to friends and family wishing to relax in a large space but be driving distance (about 10 minutes) to the beaches.

First of many multi-family vacations!

We had a terrific time at Pelican Place! 12 of us stayed there and we’re very comfortable. We weren’t on top of each other and had multiple things to do on rainy days. It was also so close to many beaches that we had our choice of things to do each day!

About the host

Hosted by Nichole Dillner

Host profile image
PELICAN PLACE came to be after staying at several Airbnb and Vrbo homes in different states over the last few years while on vacation. When it was just the two of us, or even all four of us, it was easy to find a nice place to stay. When vacationing with family friends though, we were looking for a beautiful home that would comfortably accommodate two families (10 people total in our case). We were also hoping to find somewhere that had extra entertainment features for our kids, like a pool and game room. Not only was it a challenge to find a home that would accommodate all of us, but it was near impossible to find one with the extra features we wanted to make our vacation extra special.

At that moment, we decided to buy a home in an area we would like to vacation, and furnish it with everything we would want for our perfect vacation. Thankfully, we had friends who bought a home in Cape Coral a year earlier and had already been through this process. With their help, one month later we put an offer in on a beautiful 4 bedroom, plus den, 2.5 bath pool home in Bonita Springs that would easily accommodate a large group. A month after that, it was officially ours and we were fixing it up, furnishing it, and getting it ready for us to experience our first spring break at our new home with friends. It was everything we were hoping it would be, and we look forward to building many more lasting memories at PELICAN PLACE with our family and friends. Our hope is that you do too!

We hope you choose to stay at Pelican Place! We know you will love it as much as we do!

Kind Regards,
The Dillner Family
