The property is very nice. The owners were available when needed. Unfortunately we experienced some problems with the electricity and lost the heated pool for a few days. Again, owners were very helpful and did all they could. Would highly recommend this property.

Great stay!
We really enjoyed our stay. Walking distance to the beach and 1 mile from ice cream. Close enough to everything but far enough away from the super busy beach (hotels). The house was great. Pool was amazing. So peaceful and tranquil. Highly recommend. We would book this home again. (We had a rental car which was nice to goto Sanibel but enjoyed walking many places).

We had a wonderful stay at this home, it was perfect for our young family. The place was clean and the owners were extremely accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed. Our kids loved the pool, and we appreciated how close we were to the beach. Plus, it was conveniently located within a mile's walk of all other essentials. Highly recommend for families looking for a hassle-free, enjoyable getaway!

Unit was clean and furnished very nicely. The pictures online don’t show as well as the unit looked. Two draw backs. Pool needed cleaning asap and traffic was at a stand still everyday. Most of the island is not ready for tourists except the beach! Lovely!

Great location in the heart of Fort Myers
This place was very clean and it had all of the necessites needed a short or long stay. The pool was a plus and the house was supplied with cookware, housewares and even towels for the beach. It also had a grille and a bonus room on the patio that was equipped with a TV. Highly recommended!!! Thanks Kevin and Nancy.

We had a great stay at 126 Tropical Shores Way. House was very clean when we arrived. Beds are super comfy and pool area was great.
The owners are very responsive and super easy to chat with. They responded to all questions we had in less than 10 minutes.
Great location! Just a short walk to the beach and Time Square area. Lots of restaurants around.
Definitely recommend this place and would stay again when in Fort Myers Beach Area!

Very happy with our stay!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property and would definitely stay here again! The bedrooms and kitchen are a bit smaller than what they look like in the pictures but it was all very clean and welcoming. They had a lot of beach chairs and umbrellas along with lunch boxes perfect for packing to the beach. There are many restaurants, ice cream and beach shops in walking distance but we drove if we wanted to go all the way to the pier. The pool was a bit dirty but we used the net and got most of it out so it was not a problem. The owners are very nice welcoming people with helpful tips and suggestions on where to eat and activities to do. I highly recommend this property!!
