Had an excellent 2 weeks at the property with lovely weather. The pool is very large and benefits from solar heating. Thanks so much for letting us share your house.

Dear Paul, thank you very much for taking the time to write about your experience at the Blue cove villa. We appreciate our guests very much. You are welcome to stay here again in the future.
Kind regards,
Gregg
We enjoyed our short stay, had a great time each day in the pool and fishing off the dock. Had a wonderful time viewing all the fireworks in the community seating on the dock. The home is very comfortable and spacious, and centrally located to nearby markets, i.e Farmer Joe.

We are very glad that you had a great time and liked our Blue Cove villa.
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us.
We had a great time at Blue Coral. Close to Publix store, there was dining close by too. The Enterprise is 7 minutes from the house. The pool was perfect, loved the "in pool seating" with the table to keep your drinks and snacks dry. Everything was clean and well maintained.
The house is well equipped and maintained. The kitchen has all of the necessary items for preparing meals. The pool is lovely and has fun pool toys, and the kids loved fishing in the canal- fishing poles at the house were a plus!
The property was in a great location. We found the beds quite comfortable. A rather eclectic group of furnishings. We noted a problem with the television Xfinity tuner and relayed that to the owner.

Dear Carolyn,
If you would have let me know that you have some questions about how to use the TV we would gladly resolve this matter for you.
I do not understand why you did not communicate with me during your stay.
Wishing you nice travels in the future.
Thank you,
Gregg
Pro: Great location, very clean, beautiful lanai with a pool with a depth of 4 ft, turtles & big big fish off the dock, Roku TV in the living room & smart TV in the master bedroom, kitchen appliances OK, very nice linen for the beds.
Con: Pool was too cool, (We did offer to pay extra.) dryer may need duct cleaning, Roku TV is missing the pin to sign into channels, there was too much furniture.
We did enjoy our stay .
Our family so enjoyed the property. Excellent pool for the grandkids, plenty of room for everyone! The house was well equipped for any adventure we embarked on and the kitchen was perfect for preparing family meals. The house sits on a canal which was an added bonus. Turtles and fish were a hit with everyone.
This is a wonderful property for any family to gather and spend quality time gathered at the poolside table. We will be back!

Nice pool, great view, relaxing
The owner of this house was a very great communicator and made our booking and check in easy. The house is well stocked with nice furnishings. Be sure to bring your own paper towels, toilet paper, detergents, soap, etc. The house is close to restaurants and shopping and was overall great. The only downside, the beds and sheets were not particularly comfortable and there need to be blackout curtains or at least more than sheers in the bedrooms, especially the master.

Thank you for your feedback. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay.
Some details about beds: in Master Suite we have brand new posturepedic SERTA medium firm king size mattress with pillow top; in guest bedrooms we have brand new SEALY medium firm posturepedic mattresses; all beds fitted with hotel quality linens.
Like it is shown on the pictures our Master bedroom exits into private backyard with pool and it had been decorated to highlight natural beauty of Florida, we like waking up in the morning and enjoy the view, enjoy light from sun rays reflected from blue water pool, however Master bedroom curtains can be closed for extra privacy, plus when sheers are moved together they become impermeable for sight. Other bedrooms are decorated with darkening blinds and curtains.
This is our vacation house and we do a great effort to decorate and maintain it on continuous improvement basis.
If you did let us know about your concerns during your stay we would have taken extra steps to accommodate you in the best possible way.
Thank you for staying at the Blue Cove villa.

Loving Florida
This home was just as advertised. Roomy and comfortable. Loved the pool and the dock to enjoy the canal.
We had a problem with the code to check in. VBRO did not provide it in a timely fashion. The host was able to provide it to get us in the property but it was after 9 PM.
I was so excited because of the stellar rating. Unfortunately, the pool was not only unheated and impossible to use, upon my arrival at 1:30 am, the garden hose was stretched and running into the pool. I brought my newly widowed elderly mother from Michigan to enjoy the sun and heated pool for Thanksgiving with her grandsons and family. Had a pool not been an option, I'd have searched properties that were 100 less a night. When the owner knew something wasn't working properly (I showed him the thermometer), I was responsible for figuring out what wasn't working between the timer and the heat pump. On my 4th night out of 5, on Thanksgiving, I was asked to call for help. Apparently there is a housekeeper that is local who could have come to figure things out on the first day. Had the pool been working optimally because that and the kitchen were what I searched for, I could look past the cobwebs on the furniture, the cigarette butts on the deck ("non-smoking'), the cockroaches and droppings in the bathroom drawers and on the hair dryer, in the wet bar fridge and cupboards, no stopper in the tub missing enamel, the dead roaches in the kitchen and the dead flies and bugs in the windowsills. All I needed was an actually heated pool, a nice kitchen and a bathtub. The kitchen was nice. "The price you see is the price you pay. No hidden fees..." Is a scam. I was refunded 62.50 for the pool heating fee. A deep cleaning pet fee, a cleaning fee and an incidentals fee that was forced.

Dear April,
This is our vacation home. We welcome respectful guests when we are not using it. We kindly ask all guests inform us of any issues within the first 24 hrs.
Our pool is equipped with solar and electric heaters. You wrote pool was at 79F and you asked to increase the temperature. We tried to assist you but your replies were delayed by a day.
The pool service had just finished and left the water running on a timer to maintain the water level. Instead of contacting us, you chose to turn off the water and jeopardized our pool system causing a low water level.
Our pool service sends us photos in weekly service report. We are aware that your group used the pool, as evidenced by the pool toys and lounge chairs with towels for drying.
Regrettably, you did not communicate your other concerns effectively during your stay. You began complaining at the End of stay, requesting a refund.
We are quite familiar with such tactics in the hospitality industry and do not fall for them.
Our pest control service contract with the leading firm in the county. If there was an issue at the house, the pest control tech would resolve it the same day.
You borrowed an uninspected, unauthorized electrical cord from our neighbors, putting our house at risk of a fire. You chose to discuss our private matters with them, which has upset them, and they have complained to us regarding this incident.
Housekeeper reported house was filthy after your stay, and you also broke the coffee maker.
God Bless
We loved our stay at the villa. It was everything the pictures showed and more (no bad surprises). Good surprises were that the neighbourhood was very friendly and extremely quiet (both day and night). Shopping & restaurants were within easy access and many choices. Check-in & check-out was very easy and the info was supplied before we left (which was nice) .
Weather was great so we took advantage of the pool everyday. We were surprised to see turtles in the canal and other wildlife (rabbits and burrowing owls) on our daily walks in the neighbourhood.
Would definitely stay again. Thank you for sharing our house with us.

GREG WAS THE BEST OWNER - he took care of everything we asked for
The Blue Cove Villa is a lovely little gem in a an average Cape Coral community. We found that it was centrally located to anything you want to do in Cape Coral or the surrounding areas. Shopping, dining out, and movies are all nearby, but Cape Coral is very spread out, so nothing is really that close. You really need a car.
The house itself is adorable and well kept. The main bathroom and kitchen have been recently upgraded, so that gives the house a modern feel. It is also very convenient that you can park in the garage and come into the kitchen through the garage door after shopping.
The master bedroom is spacious and the bed was VERY comfortable. Beds are always a worry when we rent. This house did not disappoint. The beds were all comfortable. The master bath was large, especially the shower, which is not new, but had a great shower head and a seat.
It is not a big house but it is a very nicely laid out house. The master is on one side of the living room and the two other bedrooms are on the other. Those two rooms share a central bathroom, which also serves as the main bathroom for the house. The LR opens to the outside patio, pool and lanai. Beyond the lanai is a canal and a dock, which was a lovely place to gather for sunset.
Although the owner advertised the pool as heated, you must understand that solar heat is not able to heat the pool during winter months. Therefore, when we arrived, the pool was NOT heated. We were VERY DISAPPOINTED, having rented for a month and having just left below zero weather in the northeast. When I approached the owner about the "heated pool," he said he would have an electric heater put in. I was a bit surprised that he was so amenable, but he did have a new electric heater put in a few days later. THIS IS A GREAT OWNER! Greg is a man of his word. I believe this investment will serve Greg well, as many renters will enjoy this convenience. Good on ya, Greg.(Also,Greg has lovely neighbors)
I also found things missing in the home- measuring cups, etc. He told me to go out and buy them, if I didn't mind. Additionally, there were no chaise lounges for the patio ( except two collapsible and portable beach-type ones, which were not very comfortable. He also let me buy two loungers. Again, Greg you are a gem!
One further issue for which there really was no resolution. The TV is a smart tv. This was a problem the entire time we were there. THIS IS NOT REGULAR TV. I think Greg will have to rethink the TV system

Thank you for staying at the Blue Cove villa and we are happy that you had a great time. We take our guests comments seriously.
We are happy to let you know that we have ordered Xfinity TV service with live local channels and with STARZ Movies channel included, in addition to previously provided Netflix and SMART TV Browser.
You were great guests and you are always welcome to the Blue Cove villa.
This is a beautiful home that we all enjoyed very much. We happen to get a cold snap and did not know how to turn on the electric fireplace which would have been very cozy. It had a well stocked kitchen and beautiful views of the canal and pool area. The beds and bathrooms were very comfortable. The owner was very attentive to an issue that came up regarding the lock on the door answering quickly with a solution. We would definitely go back. Thanks so much.

anniversary trip
Unfortunately, we feel it wasn't worth the money we paid to stay there. There were good and not so good things about the trip. The neighborhood was very quiet and close to everything. The inside of the house was clean and had every amenity we needed. The patio wasn't very nice and the grass was very high and needed to be mowed. The dock needs work done to it and the patio doors didn't close all the way. We couldn't check in at 4 because the cleaning person was still there. That was a little inconvenience because we had stopped and bought groceries.
My family and our little doggies had a very wonderful time. The pool was enjoyable and the owner was very friendly and helpful. He send by the email the instructions how to check in and check out . After the storm the home was clean and comfortable. Everything was furnished just as the ad and owner described. We were vey satisfied. We would love a return trip!
We had everything we needed from the pool to the awesome kitchen. Great location to beaches and Sanibel. Pool was great size and being on the canal was beautiful to wake up to every morning. Looking forward to coming back!
Love Florida, Love sailing. My family enjoys traveling to Florida too and we are frequently taking such trips to remove ourselves from the North and relax under hot sun in gentle breeze of Blue Cove villa.
Why they chose this property
we fell in love with Cape Coral its wonderful wild life, especially the small owls that are nesting around this area. We love this house for its good position and for wonderful sunsets that we enjoy from our dock.
What makes this property unique
It is very close to Spring Training Stadium of Minnesota TWINS.
