About this property

Studio Turtel in Fort Myers/Villa Barra

Welcome to our little paradise in Florida!

Come and enjoy some magic days at our Barra Villa Resort, which is well renowned for its sophisticated and playful atmosphere. The resort consists all in all of 8 lovely apartments and studios.

Lucky us that we found and bought this cute house next to our Barra Villa I!

The house consists of 3 units: the "Apartment Pelican", the "Apartment Flamingo" and the "Studio Turtle".

Each accommodation has its own entrance as well as a private bathroom, kitchen, and living-/sleeping-area. If requested, we are able to connect the Apartment Flamingo and the Studio Turtle to one big apartment which offers space for up to 5 adults.

The common outdoor area offers many different seating possibilities.

If you let us know early, it’s also possible to rent the entire house or the entire Resort.

STUDIO TURTLE

Our small spatial miracle with a high level of living comfort!

light-flooded studio apartment with direct access into the garden - open plan and well-equipped kitchen - large shower bath - enjoy the view into the garden from the Queen-size bed!

Relish a maximum level of comfort at our one-room Studio Turtle! By choosing an attractive design for the room and a balanced choice of colors, we created a haven of peace, relaxation, and recreation.

True to the motto "small but nice", the studio is equipped with all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay at our home. You´ll find all necessary crockery and silverware as well as dish towels and, of course, a small dining area for up to two guests in the kitchen.

Through a second door in the kitchen, you enter the redesigned wooden terrace and the greened garden.

A window in the bathroom, which is equipped with a shower, toilet, and a sink, lets the first sun rays already shine in the morning.

Welcome to the Sunshine State!

Great spot, quiet but in downtown

Loved this place, spent our days going to beach or hiking in state parks then came home to clean up and walk downtown to river district. Clean, super quiet and an easy walk to go to dinner or lunch in old Ft. Myers.

Smaller than we anticipated. Very clean. Enjoyed the pool, the ability to walk to town. The walls are thin and we could hear people talk on the other side. We used the grill to cook out. Property Manager was very responsive. All in all a good stay.

Small but adequate for our needs

This was our third time renting from this owner. Everything went smoothly. We had made a few suggestions last time but no changes. We enjoy this quiet neighborhood and the pool is great! We did miss the grill. I know that there is one at the other house but not convenient.
Stayed 14 nights in Feb 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 22 May 2022
Praise from our regular guests is always something very special for us. Regarding the grill, I must say that we have decided to gradually abolish them because they were often not treated as carefully as we would have liked and thus frequent and unnecessary repairs and new purchases were necessary.

One house, multiple renters

The turtle studio was cute and clean, and perfect for me. The rental is in a house, though, that is partitioned into multiple units and, just on the other side of my interior wall, stayed a large family who, I’m pretty sure, was training for a River dance, and had multiple children and a screaming baby. They were up until late into the night and I could clearly hear their entire conversations. Otherwise, this is a nice rental in a great location, and check-in and check-out was a breeze.

Quite rightly, the studio "Turtle" is located in a house with a total of 3 apartments so that, usually, you can expect to meet or see other tenants. Of course, we always ask our guests for mutual consideration and, therefore, we are very sorry that in your case there was apparently not 100% consideration. Nevertheless, we are pleased that you enjoyed your stay on the whole.

Great place

We really enjoyed our stay at Studio Turtle. It's part of a complex of a two homes (split into individual units) with a shared pool. It was a little too cool to use the pool so I can't speak to that. Studio Turtle is probably the smallest unit, but it's fine for two people. The kitchen is very well stocked, the bed is comfy, the bath is roomy and the shower heads, yes there are two, are great. There's a shared back porch with tables and chairs where we'd end our evening with a glass of wine. The location is within walking distance to restaurants, a Publix grocery store and Ford/Edison estates. The property manager, Marlene, was very responsive to texts and let us check in early since we had a very early flight into Ft. Myers. And Judith, who was cleaning the unit, was also very helpful and friendly. Gracias! Only two things to know about this unit: there is a step up from the kitchen to the bed/bath area. If you have mobility issues, you should know this. Also, this unit is in a building with 2 other units and the walls are very thin. We could here a cellphone conversation clearly in the unit next door. Otherwise, for the price and location, highly recommend.

Great for one person

I went to Florida the day after my birthday just for a little get a way and change of scenery. This studio was more than enough for me. It comes equipped with a stove, refrigerator, and has a portable AC machine that made white noise all night. The bathroom was large and the neighborhood was quiet. It was more than enough for just me and I would definitely stay there again.

Weekend Getaway

The accommodations were very comfortable and clean! They were perfect for my short stay in the area for a wedding. Although the weather didn’t completely cooperate, my short experience with the pool was relaxing and the other guests were very friendly! Traveling alone, I especially appreciated the well lit entryway into the studio! My only complaint, and it’s one that was semi disclosed so wasn’t a total surprise, is how much noise and sound you can hear from other guests. I was in Turtle studio, which has a porch right outside the bed. Every morning I was awoken by guests sitting at the table outside my window enjoying their coffee and the morning news via radio. I could also vividly hear everything going on above me. Thankfully I found the other guests above me to be considerate. It could potentially have been a noisy situation. Overall I’m happy with my experience and would definitely stay again if in the area.

It is true that it can happen that you notice the other guests in our Barra Villa Resort - maybe, unfortunately, also earlier in the morning. However, I am a little surprised by the statement that the guests above you were very "considerate" since there are no apartments above the "Studio Turtle"? But we are very happy that you could enjoy the pool and the time at our property so much - even if it was only a short pleasure!
