Perfect Home Away from Home!

The home was lovely. It was very clean and was stocked with everything you could ever need. The pool was always warm and the landscaping was beautiful. We had a wonderful relaxing time and can't wait to go back again.

Great location

My wife and I spent two weeks at this lovely house. Great location at the end of the canal for watching the boats going by. The pool is a saltwater pool, which was very enjoyable to use. The house is well-furnished, and the communication with the owner and property manager was excellent. Plenty of stores and restaurants within a 10-15 minute drive. We spent many enjoyable hours on the lanai relaxing and reading. We highly recommend Villa Manatee.

Bed bugs

When we arrived the house is picture perfect. It looked clean, what we thought was odd is most of the lights were on including the stereo, but very beautiful home. First morning waking up we have a few bites on our legs but we blamed them on (no see ums) we met that morning with the manager and we had the a/c turned off and we had the doors open and a very nice warm breeze was flowing through the house. Manager shows us all the light switches and we tell him we'd like the water fountain turned on in the pool which he does but states people complain the noise makes people want to pee.... Morning 2 wake up with even more bites on our legs, we call management and they said because we had the doors open we invited no see ums in the house and we also killed a cockroach. We informed them that we were getting bit on the couch and the bed. My wife and i went and bought chemicals, washed all the bedding and again day 3 we had more bits. We called and text management team and they never got back with us. We washed and sprayed chemicals 3 days in a row with no relief switched rooms our last night and we didn't get bit. We told them upon checking out that we killed a few cockroachs and different bug and they said that is normal in florida. We've been coming to Cape Coral for 10+ years and never had that. Sorry for long post. Just disappointed management didnt take things serious being such a beautiful home.

Fantastiskt hus med toppenläge

Har firat jul och nyår och njutit av fantastiska dagar i detta fina, rymliga och fräscha hus. Verkligen bästa läget i hörnet av kanalsystemet med trevlig båttrafik. Lata dagar vid poolen och mysiga utflykter. Kan varmt rekommendera detta hus.

Zuhause in der Ferne

Mein Lieblingsplatz war der Poolbereich. Dort kann man genussvoll den ganzen Tag und die halbe Nacht verbringen. Der Lieblingsplatz meines Mannes war im Haus der Essbereich mit einem schönen Blick auf Pool und Kanal. Das Haus war sehr sauber, sehr gute Küchenausstattung, große Dusche, viele weiche Handtücher, großer Walk-In-Closet, neue Waschmaschine und Trockner. Alles in allem strahlt das Haus Gemütlichkeit und Wohlgefühl aus. Ich kann das Haus nur empfehlen!
