Excellent property

Home was in good repair & excellent condition, except for the pool lining surface which is flaking/eroding away; my only problems were as follows: The closed caption does not work on the TV, although I had the settings on the TV set to closed caption; looking on the internet, the problem seems to be with the internet/cable tv supplier; the second was the couch/sofa which might have been the most uncomfortable I ever experienced when watching TV; they are in excellent condition but most uncomfortable. Two lights on the lanai and the pool light are burned out; I mentioned this to the property manager, which he agreed to; he said the pool light has been burned out for 10 years. Other than that, excellent; location is great.

July 4th

The property was well maintained and clean when we arrived. The house accommodated my family of four well. Each child had their own room and they were able to also have a bathroom for themselves. The master suite was spacious and had a nice shower and double vanity. All of the kitchen appliances worked well and the kitchen had everything we would need to prepare a meal. The pool was clean and very enjoyable. The location was close to a grocery store and many eating establishments. It was also only about 30 minutes to Fort Myers Beach.

Wonderful Canal Front Home.

Great home with a pool on intersecting canals. Check in was perfect and easy. The owners and the property manager were great to work with and I was even able to check in a day early when my schedule changed. House has everything you need and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you need to prepare a meal. The grill outside was also a bonus. I was gone a lot during the day but enjoyed sitting by the pool at night and doing some fishing on the dock. I caught some very large fish right next to the dock. The view was great and it was very quiet outside. Thanks again for the great stay. It was a great home for me to explore the Cape Coral Area Michael

Perfect, safe getaway during COVID

Great comfortable home in Cape Coral. Residential area so it was quiet and not a lot of people, so that was great right now with the influx of people vacationing . Easy drive to Ft Myers if you want to go. And easy to Sanibel. We kayaked near Pine Island. The check in is different there-at least when we went. And maybe this is a normal experience for others. Never had anyone come to the house to check us in. So I didn’t answer a strange call on my phone that apparently was the property manager trying to reach me. Instructions in the binder are mostly in German with some English. This is how I missed the check in instructions. Smaller print in English that said to call property mgr. And this was not a big deal-just different than all the houses we ever rented. The place is well stocked with everything needed. The pool was great. The dock on the canal was nice. We had a ballet dancer with us that had to do sessions and the living room was perfect for that! Nice place. We would return to this place.

Ferien Cape Coral

Bei unserer Ankunft im Haus waren wir leider sehr enttäuscht, da wir es nicht sauber vorgefunden haben. Der Bereich um den Pool war schmutzig, der Boden draussen war schwarz, und der Grill war ebenfalls in einem schlechten Zustand. Das Haus selbst ist deutlich in die Jahre gekommen. Zudem lagen draussen überall tote Insekten herum, was den ersten Eindruck noch verschlechterte.Als der Property Manager Sigi uns bei der Ankunft fragte, ob wir zufrieden seien, haben wir direkt unsere Unzufriedenheit bezüglich der mangelnden Sauberkeit und des Zustands des Grills geäussert. Leider schien ihn das nicht wirklich zu interessieren. Statt darauf einzugehen, wechselte er das Thema und meinte, dass der Standard in Amerika nicht so hoch sei wie in Europa und die Putzfrau vor etwa zwei Wochen da gewesen sei. Diese Reaktion fanden wir sehr enttäuschend, vor allem, da wir das Haus aufgrund der vielen guten Bewertungen ausgewählt hatten.Um uns einigermassen wohlzufühlen, mussten wir bei unserer Ankunft selbst anpacken: Wir haben den Boden draussen geputzt, den Grill gereinigt und unsere Frauen haben drinnen alles abgestaubt. Entweder sind wir wirklich zu anspruchsvoll, oder der Hygienestandard vor Ort ist tatsächlich so niedrig.Abgesehen davon war die Gegend wirklich fantastisch, und der Austausch mit den Eigentümern im Vorfeld war sehr freundlich und angenehm. Umso bedauerlicher ist es, dass der Property Manager seine Aufgabe offenbar nicht ernst nimmt.

Nice Stay at Lazy Pelican

The Star of this Property is the “Lanai/Pool” that faces East and you can watch the Sunrise w Coffee every morning. The Dock & Deck on the Canal was also very nice and could fish or just sit and watch the Wildlife in the Area. A very nice Pool that gets shade from the Sun in the mid to late Afternoon. Property is on a Main Street but was mostly quiet at night and overall the house is nice and we got lucky w the weather. If you stay at this property you may want to stop at Dollar Store as we had to purchase extra TP, Paper Towels, Bar Soap, Shampoo, spices for cooking. Overall we would certainly consider this property to stay in the Future.

Great place to stay in Cape Coral!

great shape. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything you’d need to cook and grill. The grocery store is .5 miles from the house with lots of great restaurants nearby. We used the home as a great base for day trips and enjoyed the room to spread out and recover from the Florida heat. The swimming pool was a great bonus for lazy afternoons at home. We would love to visit again.

This is a nice VRBO property

This property was well equipped and furnished. We never saw the manager when we arrived or when we left, despite what the instructions said in the literature at the house. We were a little worried about the rules regarding electricity use, so we took a photo of the electric meter on arrival and departure. The house had not been cleaned when we arrived, but a call to the manager took care of that and it was completed while we went to dinner. It was nice to have access to half of the garage for the car. The kitchen was very well equipped compared to the many VRBO's we stayed at, and there were plenty of towels, etc. We would stay here again without hesitation.
