BRAND NEW DOCK AND BOAT LIFT AVAILABLE!

Electric Usage Allowance includes electricity up to US $50.00 per week (additional use US $0.15/KWH) - Due to the size of this home, electric usage can potentially average out at $53/day. Please keep this in mind while planning your vacation expenses.

​​​​​​​Rates shown are for 1-10 guests. Each additional guest $100/week. No charge for guests under the age of 18.

KEY FEATURES: This home has a high chair for guests.

Living Rooms: Enter the grand foyer with steps leading to the main floor of the home. The centerpiece of the great room is its granite marble fireplace and views to the third-floor balcony library. This living room offers leather seating, as well as a stunning view of the Caloosahatchee River. The large family room, featuring a leather sectional and large flat-screen TV, is just beyond the kitchen. Take a seat and enjoy a movie or the beautiful panoramic views of the river.

Dining Room: From there, you can access the formal dining room, which offers rich furnishings and a built-in marble countertop that opens to the kitchen for easy service. The dining room ceiling is reminiscent of the fresco paintings in the great cathedrals and castles of Europe. You will see these throughout the entire home.

Kitchen: The chefs' kitchen features gorgeous cabinetry, woodwork, and granite countertops; even the refrigerator is paneled to match the cabinets. The two sinks, gas stove, double oven, and warming drawer makes it any chef's dream.

Master Bedroom/Bathroom: Take the elevator or the stairs to the third floor, which features the luxurious master suite, complete with a king-size bed. Relax in the massage chair and make a drink at the wet bar offered in the suite. The master bathroom is as lavish as the rest of the home and offers two separate vanities with sinks, a large soaking tub, and a separate shower. The beauty of this home is carried over to the custom-designed master closet.

Guest Bedrooms/Bathrooms: On the third-floor landing, you will find a beautiful library wall filled with reading material for the bookworm. Next to that is an office that doubles as another guest room suite, featuring a king-size bed, private sliders leading to the wrap-around balcony, and a private full bathroom with shower.

There are two guest bedrooms located on the main floor, off of the great room. Both feature king-size beds with flat-screen TVs. These guest rooms share a Jack-and-Jill style bathroom; each with their own amenities but share a tub/shower combination.

The ground floor of the home includes a third guest bedroom with a king-size bed and flat-screen TV. A full bath with a shower is located next to the guest bedroom. There are also two dens located on this floor, one with a set of twin bunk beds and the other with a full-sized sleeper sofa. A great area for the kids to sleep!

Fitness Room & Bar: There is a fitness room on this floor, offering a wide range of workout equipment, a wet bar area with a full-size refrigerator, and a sauna with a small locker room. The gym also offers a half bathroom. This floor's centerpiece is the pub-style entertainment area, featuring a large wet bar, wine closet, pool table, air hockey table, and lots of seating. The pub area leads out to the lanai, making this space the perfect space to gather with family and friends.

Pool/Dock: The Winslet Estate has a resort-style lanai and pool area and offers a sizeable electric-heated pool divided by a waterfall on one side and offers seating around the circumference. Another rock waterfall is located in the corner of the pool. Relax in the built-in the spa and watch the boats pass on their way to the Gulf of Mexico. There are plenty of sun lounges available, making it easy to lay poolside and soak up the sun. Tucked away off the pool is a separate, more private shaded dining area.

Try your hand at fishing! You can find Lady Fish, Grouper, Mangrove Snapper, Sea Trout, Cat Fish, Skipjack, Sheepshead, Redfish and many more. There's also been sightings of sharks (2-5 foot long!), manatees and dolphins, too!

All of the rooms located at the back of the home have access to the multilevel balconies (over 2,000 square feet covered from the sun), offering spectacular river views and multiple sitting and dining areas. The second floor can be accessed on the lanai by a wide sweeping staircase; this allows easy access to the kitchen for meals served outside.

The Winslet Estate is one-of-a-kind and will truly make any vacation memorable. Book your trip to paradise today!

Loved the Pool

The pool was great however, there isn’t a cage so a lot of leaves and other things blew into it. The house is huge. If you can’t do a lot of stairs this place is not for you. There is an elevator but it didn’t work. The view from the balcony is great. We saw a lot of dolphins and one manatee. We wanted to fish but the fishing pole at the house didn’t have a hook or tackle. The decor is outdated but not a dealbreaker. The light switches were confusing and hard to get used to. Everyone in our group complained about the bedding. The sheets are very old and scratchy. We also had an issue with finding cockroaches. The home needs to be treated as we found both dead and alive bugs almost every day in the house.

Beautiful Pool

The pool area was beautiful. Finding the right light switches was a challenge. No TV or closet in one of the bedrooms. Beware of the electric charge!! There is a 50 a week allowance and it more like 53 a day! It is a very dated property.

Cape Coral get away!

We had a great time. The pool and hot tub were fun. Big area to hang out. The pool had a leak and would lose water daily but not to the point where you couldn't use it. The house was great it is comfortable for 10 couples with the 5 bedrooms. The hot water in the master bath was just barely warm but the view was great, and the rooms were comfortable. Our only complaint was the dock wasn't available when we went due to the hurricane and the hot water in the master bath wasn't hot. They did finish the dock at the end of our trip so that one should be good now. We will book again.

Great Time

Rented the house for a week to enjoy a winter family getaway and had a great time. The house had a great layout with more than enough room to accommodate a group of 12. Wish the weather was just a bit warmer, because just hanging around the pool was the favorite activity. Will definitely look into renting this house again.

Beautiful location

The location is stunning and there were plenty of places to sit / hangout to enjoy the scenery. There were plenty of room for all our guests. Any issues when we arrived were addressed by Denny the property manager, who was very hospitable. I have to take one star away from the location and neighborhood due to construction (noise) going on next door and across the street (Even though I called the city clerks office to see if building permits were pulled and I was told No.) Overall, a great time was had by all, and we would definitely consider staying here again.

Everything we were looking for

House was great and stacked with amenities. Accommodated 7 adults very well, with enough space for everyone to hang out together and rooms were separated enough for privacy. The pool was fantastic and used everyday. Definitely worth a stay.

We traveled from Wisconsin with two other families to stay in your beautiful home. The accommodations are outstanding. Sometimes the lights challenged us, but otherwise, nicely done. We took an Uber into Fort Myers Beach, that was great to see all the people, the farmer's market, and of course walk the beach. The views from your balconies are amazing and we loved watching all the fireworks going off on NYE. We definitely hope to be back soon. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

What a beautiful location! Our family had the best time. We stayed here with 11 of us. There was plenty of space, although we lived outside. The pool, hot tub, and outdoor space are perfect. We spent a ton of time fishing on the dock, catching many different kinds of fish. We saw dolphins and were visited by a manatee! I will say the inside could use some decorative updates, however, the decorative taste aside, we had a blast and are sad to leave this paradise. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Fabulous vacation house for our family!

The house is beautiful. The kitchen was well stocked. Everyone loved the pool and there were plenty of pool towels. Very nice having the dock and a place to put the boat. Highly recommend. Only one suggestion- more towels for the bathrooms.

Amazing property

I'll go over lots in this review but know that this property is amazing and worth it!!! The balconies definitely sold me on this rental choice. The views were amazing from sunrise to sunset. It was my sisters birthday so lots of family came down from Canada to celebrate. LOVED the styling, outdated sure but it fits the property so well. The home has everything even a second full size fridge/freezer which is a huge plus for larger crowds. Steam room was awesome, bar area and pool table were very cool but please get a new triangle, its condition is embarrassing. Air Hockey table was great for kids but needs repair/replacement. Had zero issues with the air conditioning but definitely keep blinds closed when and where suggested. Office is by far the coldest room in the house next to basement so people that run hot sleep there. Lights were confusing with some minor miss labeling but after lots of trial and error we had it mostly down. 3 of the 6 spot lights at back of house were burnt out. Areas surrounding pool needs power washing in the worst way and balconies need cleaning it is easy to track dirt inside especially with children. I was there two weeks and after week 1 used Dawn dish soap, water and mops to clean entire second floor balcony. Dead bolts missing, locks rusted that need attention. I know this place has seen major flooding and was largely repaired but used as a rental more care should be taken to secure the home overall. Thank you!!!!

AMAZING House!!!

The house and all it's amenities were just as described and just as beautiful. We had 5 couples and all had ample room both privately and to hang out together. The family room sectional was even big enough for all which made watching our Chiefs win the Division Championship easy and comfortable. Each suite had it's own bathroom so we were all able to unpack and make the space our own. The pool area and hot tub were wonderful, both were warm enough to enjoy even when the temperature was below what you would consider 'swimming' weather. The kitchen provided all cooking and prep equipment we needed for a week's worth of cooking. We didn't plan it, but we had ALL our evening meals at the house. The gas range, double ovens and the gas grill outside the house made it a breeze to cook, even for 10 people. Be sure to hit the local fish market for some locally caught fish and seafood. The spice drawer was fully stocked and very little in the way of seasonings were necessary to purchase. The multiple sets of washer/dryers were used daily and we actually got home with no dirty laundry which can bring you back to reality VERY quickly. We had no issues with anything either mechanical or aesthetically, but Denny put himself at our disposal should any problems arise. The biggest problem we had was trying to find the right lightswitch - there were so MANY in a house that big.

Fantastic location property needs an upgrade

The property management and maintenance team are great. The property itself needs a complete upgrade. The A/C in particular doesn’t work adequately in all the spaces, we had to keep our bedroom blinds down all the time throughout our stay so the room didn’t heat up too much for the A/C to cope with. The lighting system is completely random and light bulbs need replacing but have been left because the are difficult to access. Some of the kitchen cupboard doors are held shut by hair bands! Not what you expect from this level of property. Overall good location, good management and maintenance team but the property needs money spending on it to do it justice.
