60th Birthday Celebration

Our stay was great, we took full advantage of the property. The pool was utilized every day of our stay. We did not rent a boat so not sure about that process. We enjoyed having breakfast overlooking the water canal. The neighborhood was quiet. Went to nearby beaches in Ft. Myers and Sanibel Island - highly recommend. We used the beach equipment in the garage as well. Recommend Manatee Park for an affordable family friendly activity too. If you like seafood, we recommend Fins in Cape Coral and The Timbers on Sanibel Island. The weather was perfect which coming from Iowa was greatly appreciated. We really enjoyed our vacation.

Loved it!

We loved our stay at Villa Dandelion! It was a beautiful house and would stay here again! Our only suggestions would be to install a fan in the room with the bunk beds and hang a tv outside on the back porch. Other than that, it was wonderful! We loved the pool, kayaks, and fishing! So much fun!

Nice house and location

This house was everything that we expected, we did have an issue with a bathroom light but the property manager sent someone over to look at it right away but it unfortunately couldn’t be fixed without ordering a new one that didn’t arrive while we were there. Great pool area that my family enjoyed very much! House was located centrally with a grocery store just a few minutes down the road with easy access. Check in and out process was super easy as well. My family would stay here again!

Almost Perfect

The house photos/description matched the home; very relaxing. Location very convenient, quiet neighborhood. Loved the ground owls in the area, a pair right across the street. The house was well stocked with kitchen tools/pots/pans/etc. The bath/hand/beach towels have seen better days; would recommend that many be replaced. The appliances were all very nice. The spa/hot tub was a bit disappointing. It was very dirty and the water smelled. The manager thought it was due to the cover, which was eventually removed, and the water was replaced. We look for a place with a hot tub, we were only able to use it for a few times. The pool was nice; clean and used most days. We did not use the bikes or kayaks, but all looked very nice.

Nice place, poor communication

Overall a nice place with a comfortable feel. Owners tried to send property managers number on several occasions but Vrbo kept crossing it out. Never did have a contact. Greeting folder was missing so no info given about the place, house rules, garbage pick up, etc. Ice maker on fridge not working and was an inconvenience. Pool was warmer than the hot tub when we arrived but was an easy fix. Thankful for the high chair provided but my wife spent 20 minutes cleaning it. As I said, nice but could have been wonderful with a few tweets.

Wundervoller Aufenthalt in der Villa Dandelion

Unser Aufenthalt in der Villa Dandelion in Cape Coral war einfach fantastisch! Mit vier Erwachsenen und unseren 15 Monate alten Drillingen war das Haus ideal: modern, sauber, gemütlich und unglaublich gut ausgestattet. Es gab ein liebevoll eingerichtetes Kinderzimmer mit Stockbett, ein Reisebett, Hochstühle und Kindersitze – alles, was wir brauchten. Der Poolbereich mit Whirlpool und die Lage direkt am Wasser waren traumhaft. Die bereitgestellten Kajaks und die ruhige, dennoch zentrale Umgebung haben unseren Urlaub perfekt abgerundet. Auch die großzügige Garage für mindestens zwei Autos war ein großer Vorteil. Die Besitzerfamilie Krauß und die Hausverwalterin Frau Behrend waren jederzeit freundlich und hilfsbereit – die Organisation war top, von der Buchung bis zur Abreise. Wir waren begeistert und kommen auf jeden Fall wieder! Dieses Haus können wir uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen.
