Welcome to paradise Florida!

Enjoy a dream vacation in one of our romantic apartments, in a dreamy and sophisticated atmosphere! Our apartments at Villa Barra Resort are located in a renovated, historic building, in the old Florida style. Find relaxation in the heated pool or in the tropical garden!

Apartment Sanibel
Step into the spring-like, fresh-looking Sanibel apartment.

The apartment, furnished in white, has been furnished with green pillows, carpets, pictures and decorations.

You can enjoy a book or even TV evenings on the sofa or in the cozy wicker armchairs.

Two bedrooms make the apartment particularly attractive for families with children. A baby bed that can be set up as an extra bed in one of the spacious bedrooms warmly welcomes a baby or toddler. Of course there are also baby towels with hood and a high chair for the smallest roommate. Bed linen does not belong in the luggage and is therefore provided.

Overall great stay subset and a couple budddies were in town for a men’s baseball tournament. Pool was a little dirty(leaves in pool) check in day. The next day leaves looked to be gone but pool was still kind of dirty. Inside the house was perfect for what we needed. Would definitely stay here again in the future!!

Thank you very much for the feedback! We're glad to hear you had a great stay. The pool service comes by at regular intervals to clean and maintain the pool. We're sorry the pool was dirty at that time, we would have appreciated a message right away so we could have taken care of it immediately.

Great communication! Needed to extend our say an extra day. Our apartment was not available, but the manager got us into another one on the same property. She set it up and made it easy. Price was good, beds very comfortable, both places were spotlessly clean, and minutes from the downtown restaurants, bar's, ect. We'll be back!

Nice

I did not realize this apt was in an older home divided into separate apartments. I believe there were 4 apartments. Ours had 2 rooms with living room and kitchen. It was small but served our needs perfectly. It was comfortable with greatly needed air conditioning. The pool and sitting area was nice. It was a good place to stay

The location was good, the air conditioning was loud in the bedrooms small windows units the pillows on the bed in the master bedroom was smelly very unpleasant, nice kitchen, we didn’t get in pool it wasn’t inviting to us, the apartment was clean but the ceiling fan in the living room was very dirty, the entrance has old smell which the is a old house, our unit smelt of pine sol which was okay, overall the stay was okay, the area is quiet, around the property is beautiful (the yard)

Thank you for your feedback! It's a shame that during your stay or upon your departure, we didn't receive any comments about the “smelly pillows” or the “dirty ceiling fan” or hear anything else from you about this, otherwise we would have taken care of it immediately. We would also have appreciated a suggestion for a more inviting pool. Before guests arrive, the accommodations are checked again to make sure everything is okay so that guests feel comfortable, which is very important to us.

Handy location in Fort Myers with a pool

This neighborhood location with a pool is very convenient to downtown Fort Myers, the river, the Edison museum, and McGregor Boulevard. It is not large, has just one bathroom, but the unheated pool is very ice and close by the back door. Parking is good, too and the kitchen is small, convenient and works well.
