Stunning Gulf-access home w/saltwater heated pool & spa - Villa Francesca

Electric Usage Allowance includes electricity up to US $50.00 per week (additional use US $0.15/KWH)

Villa Francesca is in the popular Southwest area of Cape Coral. This home has it all! It is walking distance to Cape Harbor Marina, Rumrunners, Fathom's restaurants, and lots of entertainment plus shopping. The offset garage gives almost a courtyard appearance when you arrive at the home.

Living Room: There is high-end furniture throughout the home. The living room offers plenty of comfortable seating and a large flat-screen TV with a view of the pool area through sliders.

Kitchen/Dining Room: The modern kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you would need to prepare gourmet meals for the entire family. Off the kitchen is a cozy breakfast area with seating for four. The formal dining area offers seating for six.

Master Bedroom/Bathroom: The floor plan allows a large amount of privacy for all of the bedrooms. The master bedroom is located on one side of the house and features a king-size bed and opens to the large lanai. The master bath offers a jetted soaking tub. The large walk-in shower has a larger showerhead and four additional wall-mounted showerheads.

Guest Bedrooms/Bathrooms: The second guest room is in the front, on the opposite side of the master bedroom. It offers a king-size bed and its own full bath with a granite vanity and a shower/tub combination located right next door. Villa Francesca's third guest room is located toward the back and features a king-size bed. The fourth bedroom is located next door and offers a pull-down queen-size Murphy bed. This room offers two sets of pocket sliders and can double as a reading area for adults or a play area for the children by raising the Murphy bed. These two bedrooms share the third bath that features a granite vanity and a large walk-in shower.

Pool/Lanai/Dock: The resort-style, saltwater, electric heated pool features a spa and three waterfalls. The view of the canal and sounds of the waterfalls offer a peaceful setting for soaking up the Florida sunshine while enjoying your favorite cocktail. There are two dining areas located in the lanai, one located undercover, which has seating for six and will offer shade for most of the day. The second overlooks the canal and offers seating for four. The outdoor kitchen with a refrigerator and sink offers a great area to make your drinks or prepare meals on the large gas grill. There is also a large flat-screen TV located above the outdoor kitchen. All of these features will allow the family to spend days and evenings outdoors. Enjoy an afternoon cocktail at the tiki situated on the dock as you watch boaters returning from their day spent on the water.

This exclusive villa is only a short drive by boat to the Chiquita lock. From there, you are minutes away from the Gulf of Mexico with its beautiful beaches and hidden coves. Have fun watching the playful dolphins and large schools of tropical fish. The boat dock and boat lift (10' wide with a 10,000 lbs. capacity set up for v haul) offer plenty of space to dock your boat.

Come and enjoy a vacation in SW Florida at Villa Francesca. Create a lifetime of memories for you and your family.

Beautiful Home!

Our family spent the Thanksgiving holiday at this beautiful home & it did not disappoint. Very spacious, enough for our family of 8 to move around with ease. Very comfortable space. We spent the majority of our time in the lanai enjoying the pool, views & able to just relax. I personally tried some fishing & actually caught 4 catfish from the dock. The homes host, Anne was very kind and knowledgeable, answering all questions we had and giving us tips on the best local establishments to visit. We will most certainly will be happy to book again! *Maybe add a tv in the master suite

House is beautiful!

This house was beautiful, and just as listed! The pool and hot tub were amazing and wonderful to come home to after a day at the beach. Our girls (and ustoo!) absolutely loved the pool and were in it every day. The four bedrooms were great and gave our girls space of their own ( 3 teens, they needed it! Lol). The house was very clean and we had no issues. As mentioned in previous reviews, there were several lights out, but we actually replaced a few, no biggie. The garage came in handy for loading/unloading. The neighborhood was quiet and close to everything we needed. I do wish the house was closer to the beaches, the beach at the Boathouse is actually on the river and water is not the best. I would definitely recommend the house and area, but be prepared to drive a little to get to the Gulf. Our week was just what we needed!

Family vacation with a few headaches

We were very excited about this rental. However upon checking in we were notified that there was no hot water and the outside TV was not working. We were asked to contact the maintenance person directly because the rental company tried calling the day before and received no response. The agent thought that if we contacted the maintenance guy directly there would be a faster response. We were also informed that the pool had not been cleaned the week before but it was safe to swim in. We called maintenance and the water and TV was fixed the next day. That night a storm came through and the screen on the lanai came down. We again called maintenance the next day to inform him about the screen and that the hot water not working again. He informed us how we needed to reset the water heater and the hot water would come back on. He also informed us that he would do his best about the screen. We had to call the rental company to find a remedy for the screen due to a lack of urgency from the maintenance contact. Then the main bathroom shower would not turn on. We found a note on the counter that said to unplug it and plug it back in to reset it. All week long we had the water problems. It was really frustrating for how much we were paying for the house. The outdoor pool area is nice but overgrown with weeds. My father in law started pulling them after a few days. Not what we would expect for this nice of a home. The couch is sticky and needs to be thoroughly cleaned. There are a decent amount of pans and utensils in the kitchen. You will also find a crock pot, which came in handy for our stay. There are lightbulbs out throughout the whole home. These should be replaced. The beds are comfortable and there are plenty of bedding items for all three rooms and the Murphy bed. The dishwasher is old and needs to be replaced. You may need to run it a couple of times for your dishes to be clean. There are 7 pool towels but other towels that you could use for the pool. There are a few pool floats that are nice for the pool. The internet and cable worked great. We had 5 people streaming and there was only a bit of a lag. Overall we would not rent this property again. It has a lot of potential to be a quality rental, but needs some love and maintenance.
