11th Floor Gulf Beachfront Experience on Ft. Myers Beach - Rebuilding Paradise

11th Floor Gulf front corner unit with amazing views of the Gulf of Mexico towards Sanibel Island and Back Bay towards Bonita Beach, Lover's Key and Naples. Enjoy sunrises and sunsets.

Estero Beach and Tennis Club has re-opened and we’re ready to share our condo again. As you well know, Category 4 Hurricane Ian caused widespread destruction to Ft. Myers Beach on September 28, 2022. Unfortunately, Estero Beach and Tennis Club was in the path of the hurricane, and we sustained extensive damage to our property and buildings.

Over the past year, our condo association has been working 24/7 on repairing the office, elevators, roofs, pool, grounds, and laundry rooms. Electric power and water have been restored; elevators are functioning and have passed inspection.

Some areas are still under construction but mainly limited to the landscaping, painting and lobbies. New sod has been installed between B & C buildings, and 78 new palm trees have already been planted. All of our buildings and lanais will be repainted in the next few months. Washers and dryers are currently available in all three buildings. AND, WE HAVE BREAKING AND EXCITING NEWS - THE POOL IS OPEN WITH NEW POOL FURNITURE!!! You can also enjoy the beach for sunbathing and shelling. We have new pickleball and tennis courts, bocce ball, shuffleboard and corn hole. Pickleball rackets are available in the office.

Thanks to sturdy hurricane windows and being on the 11th floor, we had only minimal water damage to our unit. We took advantage of the downtime and made several upgrades to 1103-C. Our island getaway comes with a custom-designed kitchen and bath, black granite counter tops, a stand-up shower with sliding glass doors and tropical decor. Our hurricane-proof tinted windows with a sliding screen door open onto the lanai. This is a one bedroom-studio condo with a king-size bed. A room divider is available to separate the bedroom from the living room for privacy. Although our comfortable couch is not a sleeper, it may be used for a 3rd person. Xfinity Wi-Fi service is available in our unit. Enjoy our 43” 4K UHD Smart LED TV for cable TV and Netflix. Feel free to use our beach cart, beach umbrellas and chairs. We offer a keyless entry and our exit-cleaning team provides an excellent cleaning of the unit.

We invite you to come and enjoy the action on Ft. Myers Beach. Thanks to the “Ft. Myers Beach Strong” attitude, there has been much progress in “Rebuilding Paradise.” On the positive side, 26 restaurants are now open on the island and these include many of the most popular restaurants – Doc Ford’s, Fresh Catch Bistro, Junkanoo Below Deck, Petey’s Upper Deck, Dixie Fish Company, Yucatan, Parrot Key, Wahoo Willies (new), Snug Harbor, Coconut Jack’s, Flipper’s, Fish House, restaurants at Diamondhead, and many more restaurants on Sanibel and Captiva. Most importantly, Publix and CVS have re-opened. And the greatest news on the island is the opening of Margaritaville near Times Square. You can enjoy their new restaurants, entertainment and beachfront amenities that are open to everyone. This is truly a beautiful upgrade to the island during this rebuilding phase. Nearby Lover’s Key State Park (limited day-use activities) and Doc’s restaurant in Bonita Beach have re-opened.

On the other hand, we want you to be aware that Santini Plaza has not yet re-opened. Their buildings are currently under construction. We will keep you informed. Many condo buildings and homes on the island are still under construction. Renourishment of the beach is underway with 110 tons of sand in the process of being placed. We're going to have an even more beautiful beach. We are very fortunate to be one of the first major condo buildings to have re-opened on the island. A local trolley and tram service provide transportation to nearby Lover's Key State Park and throughout the island of Fort Myers Beach.

Please consider spending a week or two (or more!!) in our condo at Estero Beach and Tennis Club, Ft. Myers Beach. We’d love to share our little piece of paradise with you.
