8TH FLOOR ESTERO BAY SUNRISE VIEWS | JETTED TUB | EXTENDED BALCONY | LOVERS KEY RESORT
From the 8th floor of this beautifully remodeled Lovers Key Resort condo, Estero Bay stretches out below in all its living, breathing glory — and the sunrises here are the kind that stop you mid-sip and make you set down your coffee just to watch. Dolphins, manatees, tropical fish, and birds make this bay their home, and guest sightings from the extended balcony are a regular and genuinely delightful part of the experience.
Nearly 600 sq ft of open-concept living space with floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors in both the living room and bedroom, a beautifully remodeled granite kitchen, a jetted tub, extended balcony dining for 4, resort-quality linens, and beach gear ready to go — this well-appointed condo delivers everything you need for a relaxed, memorable Gulf Coast retreat.
Please note: this condo is privately owned and not managed by Sunstream Hotels & Resorts, the resort's on-site management company.
THE SPACE
Floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors in both the living room and bedroom open directly onto the extended balcony, bringing the beauty of Estero Bay into every corner of the condo. Natural light, water views, and the sounds of the bay are present throughout the entire stay.
The living area features a new full-size sleeper sofa, a flat screen TV with DirecTV, and connects seamlessly to the beautifully remodeled kitchen — granite countertops, refrigerator/freezer, stove, microwave, dishwasher, and all cookware and dinnerware included. Casual dining for 4 at the granite eating bar with barstool seating gives the kitchen a relaxed, social energy that makes gathering here feel natural.
Step through the sliding doors onto the extended open balcony and you'll find outdoor dining for 4 alongside that sweeping Estero Bay view — morning coffee, lunch in the shade, sunset cocktails, or simply watching the wildlife activity on the water below. The balcony earns its place as the favorite room of the condo for virtually every guest who stays here.
The spacious bedroom features a king-size bed with resort-quality linens and its own floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors opening directly to the balcony — the bay view is the first thing you see when you wake up.
The fully tiled bathroom features a corner jetted bathtub and shower, with bath, pool, and kitchen towels included for the stay.

The location was nice being away from the hustle of the Fort Meyers Beach entertainment district. We also enjoyed the proximity to Lovers Key State Park and the on-site pool.

An amazing view of the bay basking in the sunlight every morning.
We have stayed several times at Lover's Key due to the close proximity to the state park. This unit has the best view of any that we have stayed in. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Thank you for your feedback and the opportunity to host you Marty. We're glad you had a good experience and enjoyed the building. Regarding paper products, most vacation rental companies provide a starter supply of essentials like toilet paper and paper towels, but guests are responsible for purchasing additional supplies as needed. This is a common practice in vacation rentals to accommodate varying lengths of stays. We appreciate your input and hope to host you again in the future!
We had a wonderful stay, the condo was very efficient for us. Had everything we needed.
We were very happy with condo great views. Would come back for sure. The pool wasn’t heated

Hi Craig - thanks very much for your review. We're so happy you all enjoyed your stay at this Lover's Key condo! We agree about the views - some of the best! The week you all stayed was pretty cold, especially with evening temps in the low 50's, and that does affect pool temps even with a heater. We'd be glad to have you all back again!

This efficiency condo worked great for the two of us. It was spacious, clean and view was awesome. Location was perfect as well. Enjoyed eating at Flippers on the property. Didn’t have an opportunity to use pool but it looked nice. Hope they get the other elevator working soon as at times there was a wait. Would stay there again.

The view is amazing. We could see manatees and dolphins from the balcony. You can see the ocean from the bathtub. The pool is great. The restaurant next to the pool is fantastic. The balcony floor needs to be replaced.
Nice condo, heard they are renovating unit soon. Nice building, met some owners. 60 plus crowd. Close drive to restaurants, 15 min walk to intercoastal beach, 25 minute walk to gulf beach. Priceless morning sunrise views.

Amazing stay
The place is amazing. The view from the balcony is unforgettable!! In the beginning the balcony was little scary for the high but it's beautiful. The couch for a third person is not very comfortable but the bed is perfect. The air AC is noisy.. tolerable but noisy for that quite place. The apartment was perfect for our stay. Very easy access and secure. I loved it!!

Awesome!!! This place was perfect in every way. From the decor to the location. The owner of this condo simply thought about anything and everything that a guest might want or need. I researched this area and found this gem, my wife was blown away as soon as she walked through the door. Are already making plans for next year. We stayed 4 night but will definitely be longer next time.

We loved having our morning coffee on the balcony watching the sunrise and scouting the water for dolphins. Pool was great, but note, it doesn’t get sun until about 12:30. Condo itself was quiet and comfortable (bed was great) but could use more glasses. This property is still being renovated post Ian, so construction workers started at the crack of dawn. Not a problem, but due to all of their equipment, parking was scarce. We would totally stay here again!

Thank you Jennifer for your stay, feedback and 5 stars! It was a pleasure to host you and we're glad you enoyed the balcony sunrise. Yes, the pool is on the north/northwest side of the building and because the sun is lower in the sky during the winter months, it's early afternoon before it's over the pool. After late March it's over the pool earlier in the day. Thank you again and we look forward to having you stay again in the future.

Great Trip
There was an issue with the unit prior to my arrival, but Itrip kept me informed and they were able to resolve the issue before I arrived. Their communication and assistance was outstanding. The condo was clean and exactly as described, really enjoyed the view from the balcony. I made Itrip aware that the railing on the balcony was not attached to the wall in one spot and they were notifying building maintenance due to it being a safety concern. My only suggestion for improvement would be to replace the mattress as it was extremely hard and uncomfortable.

Clean and as advertised. Rooms have unobstructed views of bay and is private. Management was painting building and smell of paint was bad. I trips said they would issue me some kind of credit because patio was unusable during our stay. No furniture and paint was not dry. Property itself is very nice and I would not hesitate to stay again. Resort is clean and friendly.

Hi Ted - thanks so much for taking the time to leave your review! We're so happy you found the condo clean & comfortable. We too were disappointed to hear that the building painting was not completed as anticipated, but we (iTrip) are the vacation rental team and the building painting was scheduled by Lover's Key Resort community association - it was completely out of our and the owners control. The exterior of the building and every unit was part of this work; it was not specific to our unit(s).
After a couple initial bumps, this was a terrific getaway from winter pandemic blues. Property location, amenities and The View were all as advertised - fantastic! Initial snafu with property management/housekeeping did not have unit ready for guests. However, property management team responded quickly and manager actually drove out linens/towels the night we arrived to tide us over until housekeeping got back the next day. Would have been 5 stars except for that hiccup.
