We loved this rental! The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, which makes relaxing on the dock, in the yard, or around the pool quite pleasant. Having the provided bikes to pedal to Tarpon Point Marina (great restaurants there), and Rotary Park (sweet walking trails there) is a bonus! The availability of the kayaks makes for great opportunities for paddling the canals; we frequently saw dolphins as were floating along. If theatre is your thing, a show/musical at Broadway Palm Dinner Theatre is a must! The owners are terrific to work with. We would not hesitate to recommend this rental!
We had a great one month stay! The pool, kayaks, neighborhood, etc. were all amazing. The owner was very responsive when ever we had a question.Would recommend this VRBO to anyone
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this rental. The owners are great with communication. The house is very well equipped; and is an extremely comfortable place to be. The neighborhood is pleasant. The property is conveniently located to shops, beaches, sight-seeing spots. Lots of destinations for activities are close-by…..we took in a show at Barbara Mann Theatre; watched a boat parade at Four Freedoms Park; biked for lunch at Naughty Mermaid at Tarpon Point; took a stroll on the boardwalks through Six Mile Cypress Slough; walked the trails at Rotary Park; and spent pleasant afternoons with our feet in the sand, watching the dolphins and interesting boats, at Cape Coral Yacht Club. When we weren’t out and about, the screen room and pool were absolutely delightful; and kayaking on the canal was great fun, too! We would not hesitate to recommend this rental; and look forward to returning!
Overall the property was very nice and the neighborhood was pleasant and quiet. The access to the pool was only available through the master bath, but they did leave a note saying they were working on adding doors to access from the living area. The home was updated but the master bath was very small and the toilet had a mismatched cover that looked like it could fall any minute. The guest toilet was not secured all the way and wiggled. They had lights all over the house and numerous light switches labeled but some you had to hunt for. We could never figure out how to get the pool light to turn on. The master bed was also very hard and uncomfortable, and the air conditioning was programmed to jump to 78 degrees after 1030pm. It would have been nice if they would have left instructions, or a notice about this, so that we could have changed it prior to going to sleep. Again, overall the house was nice, the amenities like the pool and access to the canal with the kayaks was fun, and we really just went there to relax. The home was close to everything so finding places to eat was no problem and the beaches were a short drive away. Price I feel was a little high for what you got but again still nice and I would recommend it to others to try, I may just be picky. Host was easy to contact through the app.
We had a very nice trip. The house was conveniently located in a nice neighborhood. We visited the Edison/Ford Estates and it was quite close to the house. Perfect for a day outing. We enjoyed the kayaks, pool & fishing.
My husband and I very much enjoyed our stay at Pelican-Cape Coral. The house was spotless upon our arrival, following a seamless check-in process. Communication from the owner was timely and clear. The house is on a very quiet street, in a delightful neighborhood…wonderful for walking, running, biking. Publix is a quick and easy under 10-minute stroll away. The bikes included with the rental were terrific for exploring the surrounding neighborhood. Rotary Park and North Point Marina are fun, close-by, biking destinations. Kayaks were a bonus to have…paddling the canals is a great time! Local restaurants are plentiful…The Naughty Mermaid was yummy; as was Twisted Lobster; and The Boathouse. This rental is convenient for getting to Red Sox Spring Training games at Jet Blue Park. We had fun relaxing with our toes in the sand at the cozy and nearby Yacht Club Beach. This rental had what we needed for pleasant days at the beach…. chairs, an umbrella for shade, floaties, sand toys for kids. The screened in pool area is perfect for spending relaxing afternoons; temperature of the pool water was perfect; pool deck furniture is well maintained. The gas grill for prepping grilled dinners was clean and convenient. The owner was a pleasure to deal with. We look forward to returning!
Peaceful. Relaxing. Pool and waterfront amenities.
Gary is a wonderfully kind and helpful owner who reached out to offer any assistance if needed and responded quickly to all communication. We arrived to a beautifully renovated, clean, and inviting home with comfortable beds and living arrangements. Plenty of spacious room and adequate kitchen and bathroom supplies for our family of four. The home temperature throughout the stay was excellent in spite of the daily sporadic December temperatures. We were happily surprised of this excellent location to everything you could possibly need or want to explore in Cape Coral or Ft. Meyers. We didn't have enough time to experience all the relaxing amenities the owner provided like the cruiser bikes, board games, and various sporting equipment, but we absolutely loved the private pool time and exploring the canals with the available kayaks. (Bring your own life jackets.) We enjoyed the clean pool immensely which maintained a great temperature regardless of the time of day. Because the home sits along one of the canals with neighboring pools, docks, and boats, the relaxing vibe offers a full vacation mode atmosphere. We arrived near Christmas time when lights adorned neighboring pools and docks. We will book again should we return to the Cape Coral/ Ft. Meyers area. Highly recommend this renovated rental and fabulous host!!!
Gary was a wonderful host. He made the whole process so easy the property could not have been better. The cleanliness could not have been better thank you Gary can’t wait to go back.
This home was beautiful and so clean. There are some things that were needed or have to be replaced as in a can opener/toaster/pens/ beach towels or fun towels all towels were white (thats a nice thing but not with kids) lol with the remodel some nails were exposed just some minor things.Maybe label the lights because aome of the lights we had no idea what they did. The beds were so comfy! But this is not bad at all OUR STAY WAS WONDERFUL AND SO CLOSE TO STORES IF NEEDED. WE LOVED IT WE STAYED AN EXTRA DAY. THANK YOU
This was a great place overall. Wy wife and I drove 20 hours non stop and the owners were really kind to let us in a few hours early to relax! The remodel absolutely fantastic! Great locations for restaurants that's just minutes away. Great location to travel short distances to the beaches. Overall well worth the house with the expense we paid.
We had a relaxing time at this comfortable home on the canal. Pretty sunsets, coffee by the pool and quiet neighborhood all added up to a good time. Great location, close to everything. Thanks to our host for making this so easy!
House was clean and well kept up. Many things to do in the area. Pool was very nice needs a hand held railing to get in and out. Latter could be attached to the dock for safety reasons and to make it easier to get in and out of kayaks.
As soon as we opened the door, we were welcomed by jazz music on the TV, cool air thought out, fans on and an inviting atmosphere. Cute beach type decor in the entire home, nice big and comfy bed in master bedroom (there is a 2nd bedroom but did not use), nicely decorated with huge closests. Stepping out of the back door you will see the perfect size pool(warm water) and a few steps away the inlet canal with two chairs to enjoy the views or do some fishing. The kitchen has everything you need along with delightful pods of coffee for the Kuerig machine. We had some of the wildlife stop by daily (Muscovey ducks along with all kinds of other birds) and the neighborhood kitty that we called "Tigger" (reminded us of our first cat). My husband caught and released about 45 fish, mostly gafftopsail catfish and some mangrove snappers. An overall great experience, highly recommended. Will be back!
A few issues with the new pool and landscape, but nothing that the owner could control. Everything was handled within a few days. We are definitely looking forward to staying here again!
We enjoyed our stay! This home is very spacious I can’t wait to return when the pool is complete. We enjoyed having the coffee provided to sit outside in the mornings. Everything was as described I would recommend and stay again.
My only recommendation would be to get better bedding sets (sheets and comforters) and towels throughout,. The beach towels we borrowed had tears and all the towels seem pretty worn out.
Property was just as advertised. A very spacious house for 2 bedrooms. It fit our needs perfectly. Would would love to come back again. Our host Gary was very reachable and easy to deal with. I felt like I’ve known him for 20 years and not 7 days!
We had a great stay! Loved swimming in the pool everyday! The beds are very comfortable. Great size house for our family of four.. Easy access to Publix, restaurants, & the beaches.
The owner Gary was very informative! Answered all of our questions.
Thank you!
The Property was very clean with current furniture. The mattress allowed us a good night sleep every night. It was nice to enjoy the dock and watch small boats going through the canal. We felt very safe in a nice quiet neighborhood with friendly people. The location of this rental was so close to shopping and wonderful restaurants. We recommend this property
My wife and I both grew up in Southeast Florida and have always traveled to the west coast to visit Naples, Fort Myers and the Cape.
