About this property

SEASIDE 503,Penthouse,Direct beach front 230+reviews.Direct gulf front,pool,bch

Experience a special place where the sand is sugar white and the palm trees gently sway in the warm gulf breeze. Located on some of the most pristine coastline in Florida, this will be your vacation to renew your mind and spirit. Enjoy the calming sound of the waves as they gently caress the shoreline. The days are filled with carefree sun drenched fun, while the sunsets illuminate the sky with a fiery brilliance unique to the West Coast. If you’re truly looking to get away, it doesn’t get any better than our little slice of heaven on Fort Myers Beach.
Our crystal-clear pool overlooks the white sand and turquoise waters of the Gulf. Take in a game of shuffleboard or just collapse into a chaise lounge and relax! Fire up one of our gas grills and enjoy a great barbecue with family and new friends. When you need a bit of shade just relax under the Gulf front Tiki Hut.

With over 400 varieties of seashells, you can spend hours strolling up and down the beach hunting for the perfect shell.If you really want to feel one with nature Lovers Key State Park made the 10 Most Romantic Places in Florida according to Coastal Living and Travelers Magazine and it is short 3.8 mile drive or trolley ride. Sanibel and Captiva Islands are short drive away (14.2 miles). If you like gators and birds, the The Bird Rookery Swamp is a great place to visit and only 33.3 miles away. I recommend checking out the Edison Ford Museum in Fort Myers situated 16.5 miles from the condo.

Relaxing get away

The condo was fabulous. Clean and welcoming. The view from the balcony was outstanding! Easy to access, friendly people everywhere. The Publix across the street was a huge asset. But the beach, to me the best part, was so wonderful. We saw dolphin, many seashells and othe sunset. I would and will stay again!

Excellent! The only issue was not the property owners fault. Fort Myers Beach is still recovering from Hurricane Ian and there was some work still happening on the beach during the day. It appears they are almost finished with that section of beach. Other than that, it was a perfect 3 day weekend.

Just a beautiful property

Everything was great. The view from the balcony was just amazing. The condo has everything we needed including beach chairs, beach towels and an umbrella. Also the kitchen was well stocked.

Perfect vacation

This condo has everything needed for a stress free vacation. If you love swimming in the ocean (I do) or shelling (my husband does) this is the best place to be. Shopping, dining, walking the beach or taking day trips away are all here. The weather, the white sugarlike sand and being steps from the beach, with no undertow are awesome. Highly recommended.

Great Location. Responsive Owner!

We had a 6 day stay with me, my husband and adult son. Perfect location if you want a quiet beach location and convenient to Publix grocery store. Condo was well maintained and had everything we needed. This included beach chairs, beach towels and a cooler. Only complaint would be pillows were a little to soft for our liking. Karen the owner was very responsive and gave good recommendations on places to eat which was very helpful!

Super Clean and Excellent Location

The condo was very clean and well taken care of. Beautiful view of the beach with a Publix right across the street. The grills were great and easy to use. My boys fished off the beach and caught four fish. We left the pole for the next person to enjoy. Great time! Excellent property! Highly recommend it.

Perfect!

We loved our stay at your condo! The condo was just the right size and the couch looked comfy, although I think the only place I ever sat down was on the lanai overlooking the water. I am definitely missing the sound of crashing waves. Publix located right across the street was a big plus. We enjoyed walking down the beach to the more public areas to eat/drink and then having our more peaceful spot to come back to. We would love to come back again for sure!

Great mid-beach location

We hadn’t been to Ft Myers beach for 15 years when we decided to try it again in this mid-beach location. This spot was much better than staying on the north beach near all the hustle-bustle of the island. Big, beautiful beach with morning dolphin sightings from our fifth floor screened-in lanai. Publix conveniently located across the street. Owner/host very attentive to questions before, during and after our stay. Owner provided beach chairs, sun umbrella and beach towels for our use. Water sports offered nearby, just down the beach. Many beautiful sunsets enjoyed during our 10-day relaxing stay.

Excellent!

We stayed at Seaside 503 for 4 nights in January 2020. The unit was fantastic: clean, nicely decorated, right on the beach. Karen was great - checked in with us every day to make sure everything was going well for us. The unit was furnished with everything we needed - from kitchen utensils to beach towels and chairs. The unit is right on the beach which is clean and wide. The Publix grocery store is literally across the street - couldn’t be more convenient. We’ll be back!

Gorgeous View and Excellent Mattress

Karen’s Seaside condo was perfect for our family of four for our Christmas getaway. The master bedroom has one of the best mattresses I have slept on. The condo is absolutely adorable, the kitchen is well stocked, and everything is neat as a pin. The location is great. It’s far enough away from the craziness of the downtown area to be peaceful and quiet. It is very convenient to have Publix directly across the road. We took advantage of the short walk to have our Christmas dinner at the Bayfront Bistro—it’s well worth the splurge! The complex is well maintained with a lovely pool area and plenty of lounge chairs at the pool and on the beachfront. Karen herself is a great hostess and very accessible by text. We had a delightful stay, and I highly recommended it.

Ideal Location on Fort Myers Beach

If you want to stay on Fort Myers Beach, it is hard to beat this location which is toward the quieter south end of the island. Access to the widest beach I've ever seen is just yards away across the main street. There is a plaza less than 1 mile away with restaurants and a CVS. There is a Publix about 2 miles away. There are beach bars also within walking distance with live music almost nightly. The house itself was clean and had just about everything we needed. The washer and dryer came in very handy. The pool, though very small, was clean and is cleaned weekly. Wifi service was very good and important to us as my wife worked 3 days. Plenty of towels for bath and beach as well as cooking utensils and dinnerware. We would stay here again if we were to stay on Fort Myers Beach. The north end of the island is much too congested. Expect traffic delays when heading north to the mainland. But there is plenty to do on Fort Myers Beach and nearby Lovers Key State Park to the south.

Paradise Found

Happy to have found this condo!Everything that was convenient to us (2 couples), 2/2, was booked. Lucky enough Karen's beach condo was available. I would rate her as a super hostess. We received all the information timely and accurately. Of course she was a call away if we needed anything. But there was no need. Once we entered the condo, we were surprised to find that it's exactly as listed. It's on the 5th floor, there's an elevator and it has valet carts. The condo is very clean and it had all the amenities. The decor is beachy and tastefully done. It has a screened lanai with beach view. The pool and grounds were well kept. The beach and pool areas have nice beach loungers. Imagine sitting on the loungers under a coconut tree and just enjoying the wonderful sea breeze. Amazing!!! I must also mention that the property has various barbecues which are very clean. The area is safe....I would take early morning walks and collect sea shells. There's also a Publix across the street, no need to drive. I highly recommend this condo...we're certainly returning next year. Enjoy😁

About the host

Hosted by Don and Karen Ostendorf

Host profile image
We bought this condo because we know that visitors to the beach want to see the water 24/7. The beach is 7 miles of nice sand and I love to have a reason to go the beach every day.

Why they chose this property

I think the weather was the deciding factor. We are from the Midwest and here in Minnesota, summer is too short. The flowers and the palm trees are so therapeutic that we couldn't resist. We also like the mid-island location as we can access the South end bridge or the North end bridge so it is very convenient.

What makes this property unique

We have all the comforts of home. We like to think that we have covered all the details and we know our guests appreciate the amenities that we have to make their vacation special.
Karen,
