This beautifully maintained coastal retreat offers the perfect blend of comfort, relaxation and classic Southwest Florida charm.

Beach days couldn't be easier -

Hi mark - thanks so much for your 5 star review. We're glad you had a great time & welcome you again!
Darling, clean, spacious, great location!! This was my first visit to Fort Myers Beach. Not knowing where to stay, I found this opportunity. This home is located in the middle of the island which allowed for quick access to the north and south ends. Since it was Spring Break week for college students, the area was busy and I’m so glad I was where I was!

Hi Sandra - we're so glad you shared your experience! Lee & Collier county spring break and college spring break always seem to overlap and bring some extra activity to the area. We're glad you had a great time & are thrilled even, for you to describe it as "perfect". We appreciate the 5 stars & welcome you back anytime!
