About this property

Waterfront Villa with Pool, Hot Tub and oversized dock ! Quick Gulf Access

Villa ”The Rivièra” is located in SE Cape Coral, in an area of luxury homes, overlooking a canal with quick Gulf access, within 15 min of the river. Only a few minutes to the open waters, this is the perfect location for boaters. Convenient SE location close to shops and restaurants yet tucked away in a low traffic neighborhood adjacent to the ecological preserve ideal for walking and kayaking. Close to everything. And within 15 minutes from some of Florida's finest beaches. It’s quietly and peaceful, but nevertheless within reach of the many attractions Florida is famous for. Take a walk on the beach, play some golf, go for a sail or have a delicious diner and enjoy the view of the bay and the sunsets. You will want to return time & again to the comfort of a lifestyle that offers an escape from the everyday stress. With so many beautiful beaches along the Gulf Coast, you’ll enjoy shelling, swimming, sun-soaking or simply walking. We HIGLY recommend to buy Travel insurance .Cancellations or early departures due to inclement weather do not warrant any refund. This includes hurricanes.

Nice house but….

Nice house and back yard area on the canal with screened in pool and tiki bar. However, the property manager was not very responsive. Informed her of master bath outlets not working and no one was sent to fix it. Also, tv is not a smart tv, so could not watch Netflix. Pool guy came and put chemicals in the pool but no note was left to let us know not to go in the pool for an hour. Thankfully, we were home and asked him before he left.

Poor communication

Kim: The place is run like a hedge fund trying to squeeze every penny from profligate guests. 1) When we arrived late on a Wednesday (also trash pickup day earlier in the neighborhood), the trash pickup bins were already full. We checked out two days before the next pickup day, so we had to leave the indoor trash cans full. A resident cockroach — large enough to be a household pet — seemed to enjoy the trash can bounty. (Well, at least SOMEONE knew what to do with the accumulated garbage.) 2) Virtually no hotel- or home-style amenities upon arrival, so until stores reopened the next day we could not shower, do laundry, clean up messes (no paper towels!), cook breakfast, etc. Only liquid hand soap was in each bathroom. 3) The hvac was locked on 80°F until the management company arrived the next day to set it lower. The first night we slept on top of the bed linen because the house was so hot. The management rep who finally appeared the next day did not know how to reset the hvac temperature, so she had to ask her brother to stop by and do it. 4) Similarly, the house “welcome” manual told us not to use the pool/Jacuzzi remote controller (an obtuse device) without phoning the management company first, and that we would be charged extra for electricity if we used the spa function too much. Too many rules and poor communication with host and “property management “

Lovely retreat

The house was really amazing. We had everything we needed. They had fishing poles, kayaks, and all the other amenities that you can think of the pool was lovely. The hot tub was great. The only thing that I would change would be I would put more safety features outside like step up step down, reflective tape around the deck

Beach Getaway with Friends

Overall, we loved our stay. The split bedroom plan was ideal for the two families, one with two children, and the other with none. The patio/pool deck was an oasis, with plenty of seating for all. The boat dock and patio with the tiki table was a great place to spend the mornings while sipping on a favorite beverage and watching the fish jump in the canal. The set up of the home was nice, in that the kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans, dishware, drinkware, and the like. The laundry was WONDERFUL, as it allowed us to wash our clothes before repacking for our departure. Finally, the beaxh chairs, floats, etc. came in handy for either the pool or beach. I would add the house does need a good deep cleaning, as there were some rough spots here and there (stains on the living room carpeting, cracked/broken tile, and baseboards that needed to be wiped down and painted. Two phone calls to the number provided in the house’s notebook produced only one answered call. This call was made when we decided to use the gas grill and found the propane tank empty.

Relaxing Stay

Beautiful relaxing outdoor area especially the oversize deck. House was nice, but 1 bed seemed more like a full size instead of a queen size bed. They do provide a binder with information a must read because it states the air conditioner must be set between 73 to 79 degrees which was not state in Vrbo description as you could be charged for electricity.

The Perfect Vacay

I am a frequent visitor from the UK to Florida and so finding the perfect villa for me is everything. We have throughly enjoyed our stay at the villa, we were a family of 5 with lots of space for everyone. Perfect location to hire a boat to cabbage key and do some fishing. Communication with the owner and property manager was easy and they were very accommodating. Small issue with the pool but was sorted swiftly and promptly. Pictures are true to life and we loved fishing off the dock. Would highly recommend this villa and we would love to come back.

Beautiful house right on the canal

This was probably the best house we've rented. The pictures are accurate. The pool and hot tub were wonderful, especially the first couple cooler days. There was a nice book explaining how to use the remote for the pool. Lots of towels and the bath towels were really soft and thick. I can't think of one bad thing to say about this property. My husband really liked being able to park in the garage. We will definitely rent this property again when we come back to Cape Coral.

Great view

The outside area was awesome! Very spacious and well equipped with chairs lounges and tables! Pool and spa worked the whole time we were there. Very very easy to control temperature. View was fantastic. Outside area was even better than the pictures on VRBO website. It was great to be close to walking trails. Excellent location! Close to just about everything! Both the property contact (Silvi) and the property owner were very responsive to our inquiries. Overall a very enjoyable stay. I highly recommend it!!

Not truthful

Seemed the owner did not want to keep the temperature up on the pool and hot tub. Heat pump was not on when we arrived.. I have pics of the settings, but never got to them. I believe she did not want to upgrade to a newer pump that would have fixed the problem. Pool kicked in the last 2 days. Spa could not be used at all! Filing claim for misrepresentation when I get home. Sad though, the home was a nice size and alright for its age. Owner seemed agitated that I called her on it everyday. Its a big part of vacationing. Pool and spa = RELAXATION.

Frustrating

The house was beautiful. However the inside was furnished very cheaply. Bad beds, bad pillows and the microwave didn't work from day 1. We couldn't use the pool the first 2 days. The out side furniture cushings were non existence. I must say from the pictures it was a big disappointment.

Pool deck is not family friendly

Our first thought was the neighborhood is nice and the location is good. There were bicycles and a crib for my 2 year old which was family friendly. It was clean and well stocked with dishes and towels, no complaints there. The patio in the back, surrounding the pool and hot tub however, is a safety hazard and concern that we wish to stress to other families with children. The patio is concrete as is most, but it has been painted with a gloss white paint, which makes it extremely slick. We have stayed at many properties with pools and thankfully our children are familiar around the water. Our whole family was outside on the pool patio and our 2 year old slipped and slid into the hot tub and both my husband and I injured ourselves trying to rescue her. Every single person in our family slipped and fell, including my mother and father in law who live in Florida. There is no being cautious, just walking we had slips. According to the pool maintenance woman, she has fallen several times on patio trying to service the pool. We just want everyone to be aware, especially those with children or elderly, that a serious hazard exists.
