About this property

A Waterfront Oasis! Private pool, Fishing, Gulf access in sunny N Fort Myers!

Your private waterfront retreat in sunny North Fort Myers awaits! This spacious 3 bed/2 bath home is centrally located and tucked away in a quiet neighborhood—perfect for relaxing by the pool or watching sunsets over the saltwater lagoon.

Your beautiful, newly updated, vacation home is situated on the Belle Air Lagoon—part of the Hancock Creek Preserve—which is famous for its kayaking. The views are stunning! A private pool and large, screened-in lanai overlooks the lagoon teeming with wildlife. Spot Manatees swimming right by the seawall. Jumping fish are a regular sight while tropical birds sun themselves on the dock posts. Watch for dolphins and alligators cruising the lagoon. Fishing is ample in the lagoon where you can catch fish right from the dock!

Dining, shopping, beaches, waterparks, golf courses, eco-tours, and many other attractions are all nearby. Downtown Fort Myers is a quaint and bustling area with cute shops and fun restaurants and breweries. The famous Fort Myers Beach and stunning Sanibel and Captiva Islands are just a short drive away!

After a dip in the pool, grab a fresh lime off your own lime tree and add it to your favorite drink. On cooler nights, gather around the backyard fire pit for stargazing and s'mores. End the night snuggled up on the large, comfy modular sofa for popcorn and movies.

For boat enthusiasts, the neighborhood boat launch is right across from the home's private dock. Cruise the lagoon out to the Caloosahatchee River and you'll reach the Gulf of Mexico in 20 minutes.

Fort Myers 4th of July getaway

Great location and even though a short trip, it was a much needed trip where you could disconnect and enjoy the outdoors and pool time. We spent a majority of our time at the house and did lots of fishing(caught catfish) and spent time together enjoying the amazing fireworks for the 4th of July

Our stay was beautiful, clean, and amazing. The pool was a HUGE hit with my two teenage sons, as well as the bay/canal, where my 14yo spent countless hours fishing. He caught bass, mojarre, catfish, and cyclid. In addition, we were lucky enough to see gators and manatees swimming. Our host was responsive when I had a question. Overall, the home was in a nice quiet neighborhood and is beautiful and clean with comfortable beds, a lovely expansive living room, and all the amenities of home!

Wonderful Property

My family and I were very pleased with our stay at BaMaLoosa Cove! View was beautiful, pool and dock to fish off of were a huge plus for us. We caught lots of catfish and saw Manatees one morning hanging out for a few hours. It was located in a nice quiet neighborhood with places to visit not too far.

The Perfect Place To Stay!!

We loved this beautiful home! It has everything you might need, including a small pool, which was perfect for us. We enjoyed the covered patio. The separate fenced-in yard was great for our little Westie. The location is ideal for getting around. We would stay here again!

Was a very enjoyable stay

We had a a great time staying at this home.The home was very clean and well maintained. In a quiet neighborhood and convenient to all the things we enjoy doing beaches ,walking paths ,restaurants, shopping and fun things for our grandkids to enjoy. We were able to fish off the dock and enjoyed watching the manatee that were in the canal almost daily during our stay. The pool was used daily and enjoyed by all.The property manager Adriana and owners Michelle and Brett were very helpful and quick in their response to any questions we had. We would definitely rent this property again.

We had a wonderful time at Bamaloosa! Very clean and a super location. The beds were so comfortable. My only wish was a table on the lanai. Such a nice grill but we had to eat inside. Other than that everything was perfect.

The property was nice and quiet. Just what we wanted a true waterfront oasis!!! You almost forgot you were in a neighborhood. It was chilly so I wish had heated the pool a head. Bret and Michelle were available and quick to respond. Great host! They have guides and must do’s available on the VRBO site and in the house. They recommended Captain Dylan on advice for bait to fish in the back. He was amazing! He actually fished with my husband our entire stay! And my husband caught a trophy bass in the back! The pool was great but cold due the the thunderstorms, rain, and overcast, so if you visit in early June heat the pool! Overall great location close to so many things. Most important cleanliness!! The place was clean!!

About the host

Hosted by Michele Asmussen

Host profile image
Hello! We're Bret and Michele - so nice to meet you! When we took a trip to Sanibel Island a few years ago, we fell in love with SW Florida. Less than a year later, we bought BaMaLoosa Cove to enjoy the warm Florida sun and escape the cold weather in MN. The property name is a combination of our names and the surrounding Caloosahatchee River community. We've put a lot of love into BaMaLoosa Cove and plan to continue updating it. We hope you enjoy the home and this beautiful area as much as we do!

Why they chose this property

BaMaLoosa Cove is nestled in a quiet, private neighborhood on the corner of two dead-end streets - so there is no through traffic. Plus, our home is conveniently located just a few miles from downtown Fort Myers, Cape Coral, and the beautiful Sanibel & Captiva Islands.

Although our home is within walking distance of a couple great restaurants and shops, you will need a vehicle to get around.

BaMaLoosa Cove is minutes from the quaint and bustling, downtown Fort Myers. There is always something going on downtown - it's really a must-see!

When you're not relaxing by the pool, we encourage you to explore the amazing activities in the surrounding areas. Several stunning beaches are nearby plus waterparks, water sports, golf courses, and eco-tours are all close and provide fun for the whole family. Enjoy your stay!

What makes this property unique

BaMaLoosa Cove offers the best of both worlds - a private, waterfront sanctuary that is minutes away from fun tours and activities! Our home has large, open living spaces - indoors and outdoors. Watch tropical wildlife in the lagoon from the spacious, screened-in lanai. Relax in the private, heated pool and fish off the dock. If you're looking for entertainment, downtown Fort Myers is always lively and waterparks, beaches, and eco-tours are all nearby.
