This home rental is a true gem. The furniture is extremely high quality you can tell that the owner really took the time to furnish the house. By far this is one of the best VRBOs that I have stayed at and I have stayed at hundreds of them. It really makes a difference if the furniture has been purposely bought for the house . The space is wonderful The dock is so nice to fish from. The pool was perfectly warmed .The communication with the property manager was awesome he came and checked in on us when we got here he was such a gem. The property is very conveniently located to Publix. Plenty of high quality bath towels beach towels. The kitchen pots and pans everything you could need. This will definitely be a vacation home that I bookmarked and come back to as often as my vacations permit.

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.
