We had an amazing stay at the villa! We celebrated my 50th Birthday! The pool was amazing and the boat dock was convenient and the lift was an added bonus! We did get a fine for having the boat trailer at the house which we were not aware we could not keep it there. We felt our privacy was respected and there was plenty of room for our big group! The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. The kayaks were so much fun! Overall, we would easily rent again as a family!! It was an amazing week!

Amazing stay

Stayed July 7-14 and everything was great. House was clean and spacious. Communication with the owner was excellent and always answered in a timely manner. The fishing dock and tiki hut were so nice to have coffee in the morning and end the day with beautiful sunsets. The sun setting over the canal and pool was probably my favorite thing about this house. It was also in a perfect location. Close to stores, restaurants and beaches. Would stay here again.

50th Birthday Celebration

Great property, near restaurants, and Publix within walking distance. It has 5 baths in total, when I first read the listing I took it as 5 baths, plus 5 1/2 baths. Property is well appointed, has a beautiful lanai and deck/tiki bar. Owner was easy to reach and addressed any questions.

Multi-generational

Grandparents stayed with adult children and both teen and pre-teen grandchildren, ten of us in all. Something for everyone. Pool and hot tub in almost constant use. Lots of space, both inside and out. Kayaks, foosball, ping-pong table, all provided. Caught a fish right off the dock. Publix, liquor store, Subway, etc. just a block or so away.

Awesomeness

Such a wonderful and nice property. No toiletries supplied, so you wil have to your own. It’s actually 4.5 bathrooms, and one of the bathrooms is out by the pool. House was beautiful though and had a lot of things. Such as kayaks, bike, swim toys and floats . I would definitely stay again in warmer weather

Destination Wedding

It was hard to sleep the first night, because it was extremely hot in the house. I think the tenant was able to do something remotely, because the rest of the nights were much better. Also, if you use the propane on the grill there's a note that says if you don't refill it tank there is a $40 charge. The grill does not work well because it took forever to cook come some hamburgers and hot dogs. The house was clean, bedding was nice, The kayaks were fun to use. Loved the pool! Great value!

The outdoor space at this property — especially the pool and dock — was truly lovely and we enjoyed spending time there. We did get to see some Manatees the first full day there. However, we did experience several issues inside the home that affected our stay.The listing advertises five bedrooms, but the fifth is actually a separate room outside by the pool, next to the laundry area. The AC in that room never worked during our entire stay, despite multiple messages back and forth. It wasn’t usable without buying a fan, which we ended up doing.We also had AC problems in the kitchen and living room for the first half of the week. That was eventually fixed, but only after several days. A few smaller maintenance issues added up as well — missing refrigerator shelves, TV remotes with dead or missing batteries, and very limited towels (two bath towels and one washcloth per bedroom, and none for the detached room). This house is really a four bedroom and only the 2 bedrooms on the first floor had ensuites. The outdoor area is great, but the home would benefit from better maintenance and more consistent responsiveness to guest issues. Despite some of our issues, we did have a good time there.

50th Birthday with Friends

I organized this trip for 8 friends (ranging from 45 to 78 years old) for my 50th, and it was more about the house than the location. We wanted a pool, comfy beds, and a big enough lanai for all of us to eat. This house was a great fit. It even faced west for beautiful sunsets! Having the grocery store across the street was incredibly convenient too. The house needs a little TLC, specifically that towel hangers kept falling off the walls, drawer pulls came out, and the pool had missing tiles, but the overall vibe was still big and relaxing. The pool is the center of the home, and we were there every day for hours. It's great to have the outdoor kitchen and bathroom there as well, so we didn't have to run in and out of the main house in wet bathing suits. We were surprised at the comfiness of the beds (but not the sofa bed, it was pretty old), and the ample space on the lanai. Overall, the 8 of us had a lovely and luxurious stay!

Family Christmas

We traveled with two families. All people were 18+. The “kids” loved the ping pong table, foosball table, and kayaks. The outdoor lanai was one of our favorite hang out space. With a table large enough to seat everyone, we ate our meals and played many games. Our other favorite place to sit was the dock. Though fishing off the dock was unsuccessful, everyday we sat down there to watch the manatees that made their way to say Hi to us. The house was comfy and clean. The hosts were very quick to respond when there were times that we reached out to them. The area of Cape Coral is one of our favorites to visit when we want to relax and unwind. The house is in a great location with very easy access to many restaurants, grocery stores, delicious ice cream, and only a few minute drive to the Cape Coral Yatch club as well as Cape Harbor. We truly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the Cape Coral area as well as Villa Encore!

Friends getaway.

Villa Encore was clean and the beds were comfortable. The guys liked having the dock to fish daily. We saw a manatee a few times which was nice. The pool was clean and refreshing. We did not use the hot tub but it appeared clean and hot. The outside pool area was wonderful for outdoor meals and nighttime card games. We did not use the upstairs bath as the deep tub was difficult to get in and out of to take a shower and we didn't want any accidents. It was a bit unusual to have the other full bathroom outside of the house on the opposite end of the pool area for use by the bedroom closest to the pool. It was a little chilly using it one night but otherwise it was okay. We also did not use the kayaks as their was not an easy access from the dock or yard to put the kayaks in the canal, however, it is nice to have them there if someone has the desire to find a place to use them. The games in the garage were great. The kitchen had everything we needed for the most part. We had one issue and the manager came right to the house to go over our concerns. We also had a question on something and our message was answered quickly. Overall it was a very good stay with our group of friends.

Nice quite property.

This properties biggest asset is the fantastic pool area. We really needed it as the temps were 95 plus all week. We spent a lot of time outside in the pool and using the area to relax. There is a refrigerator out there as well to keep drinks cold and not have to keep going inside. The beds were quite nice as well. They all seemed very comfortable and everyone commented that the sheets were very comfy. The tv’s didn’t have any local channels/tv when we arrived and it seemed that someone had taken all the batteries out of the remotes. We did get max over there after a couple of days and he did set up the tv downstairs for us for the last couple of days we were there. Not a big deal but check on that when you get there. The Sonos speakers that were on the patio took a little bit to figure out how to use. If you have your own speaker you should bring it. I didn’t, and had to download 2 separate Sonos apps to be able to play music and it still only let you play stations from the Sonos app, nothing from your own music library on your phone. Overall the kitchen was ok. Electric stovetop and limited drink ware. They really should get some plastic cups in there for sitting around the pool. Every time I saw my kids out at the pool with a glass I was a little anxious about them getting broken out there. It’s a very nice house and we definitely enjoyed ourselves.
