Definitely needs some work
Let me start off with the positives. The location and neighborhood could not have been better. Unfortunately, the house is in complete disrepair. We were allowed to do early check in by 1 hour and then the property manager came to inspect the property and asked us why we were there a hour early. The back dock had caution tape around it. The pool was disgusting and had paper towel in the filter and the skimmer basket was completely busted and wasn’t sucking up any of the debris on top. The pool guy was supposed to come out first day there and didn’t come out entire 3 night stay. The master shower was making a horrible sound every time you turned on the water. The property manager had the handy man come and he said to just turn the water on slowly. That did not work. The jet tub was also not working, so we didn’t get to use much of the master bathroom at all. The window in the kitchen has a gap and we had to put a towel there to stop the breeze. The kitchen outlet didn’t work and when I the handy man came he must have fixed it because it started working again. The tv in the master bedroom would not be good for someone that has seizures as it is constantly bouncing from dark to light like a strobe. The manager was responsive at first but then became unresponsive. She was saying people were coming that didn’t come when she said they would resulting in us being gone when the maintenance man came . He came 2 days after we were told he would come. The pool man never came.

The Chases
Nice home with pretty nice furniture good neighborhood. Pretty well equipped. Should point out that the owner lives in South America and has not been on the property for years. The manager seem good. There are things that could be done to make it a little nicer: mats for lounge chairs on the patio, dishwasher looks on it's last legs stove burner controls are mostly rubbed off, not enough lamps, patio sliding doors hard to operate. No access to brooms or sweepers. The Lake and pool were nice.C

Great view/pool but that’s it
Pros: Great view/pool Cons: -Lacking basic essentials like oven mitt, dustpan/broom, dishwasher sponge, shampoo/conditioner/body wash -The floors left our feet dirty and black -The pillows are very thin and uncomfortable - so bring your own -Wifi and Tv didn’t work and didn’t get fixed until the middle of our second day -The screen door leading to the dock was broken and wouldn’t open or shut properly -The dock was poorly maintained so you can’t stand on it and really enjoy the scenery This property has a lot of potential to be great, but it’s very outdated and not very well maintained. Spend the extra $100 a night a stay somewhere nicer.

Disappointing
Our stay started out by me requesting an early check in. Not only was this declined I was later informed the house would not be ready at my scheduled check in and was going to be at least an hour late. After we did finally check in the house was very hot. The A/C was set on 78. I turned the A/C down only to find out it was not working correctly and never was able to get the house below 75 during our 3 night stay. The house was obviously a rental for income and not very well taken care of. Things were worn down throughout. For example the stove had tape with photos of which knob worked which burner. The master show did not drain very well, the pool was dirty and it seemed as if there was minimal water filtration. I would not recommend this property if your expectations are something nice.

Almost perfect!
Nice sized house with a beautiful view, right on the lake. Very quiet neighborhood. The pool was wonderful. The only issue (and it's probably only an issue for me because I cook often) is that the kitchen could use a baking dish and/or a cookie sheet or two. All communication with hosts before and during the stay was excellent. Would stay again.

Great Time and Super Location
We arrived and found the property clean and inviting. We could not find the fishing rods to fish because they were destroyed by previous renters, but one quick call and that was quickly resolved and we were trying our luck with NEW fishing rods! We did catch some fish and enjoyed our stay. It was nice just relaxing by the pool. The location was awesome as it was close to many restaurants and grocery store. Driving around and seeing the remainder of hurricane Ian, it is understandable that many houses in the neighborhood and the greater city were being worked on, but there were no inconveniences or noise issues. Response for the fishing rods (the only thing we called on) was easy, quick and friendly. We are already making plans fo another visit!

Great place, great location
This was an overall great experience for our family. The property was as advertised, with no issues whatsoever. Location was near everything. Check in was a snap. We had awesome communications with the property manager and owner as well. Had an issue with the pool not heating, and the manager was there immediately to get it running. He also checked back with us to make sure everything was OK. We had decent fishing from the dock. Caught some Jack, snapper, catfish, puffer, and had Shark action every night!! The key to the dock fishing is not to stand on the dock - cast from the seawall so you don't spook them. The Shark loved a frozen mullet casted out as far as you can. We'd go back there again!

As advertised, centrally located
Overall, a great property and better location. House is plenty big and room to spare. Pool is nice, albeit a bit small for our liking, but definitely did the job. The view of the lake is also very nice and relaxing. Suggestions would be to add seating to the pool area as the table only seats 4. Also add some adirondack chairs to the dock area to enjoy the lake. The house could use a true "deep" cleaning, especially in the kitchen. Property manager was great, very responsive and took care of any issues that we had, which were very few. Thank you

Incredible Location and Value
We stayed for 3 days in March 2022. We loved Cape Coral and would come back again. Brian the house manager was very responsive and helpful. You can’t beat this location - quiet street, pool with incredible views, dock (we rented a pontoon boat - highly recommend), and walking distance to a really nice park. The layout of the house is great with the master bedroom on one side of the “L” and the walkouts from the living room and master BR to the pool. The screened-in porch with the heated pool is the focal point of the house for a reason. Our only complaint was an issue with one of the toilets not functioning properly.

Hello, thanks for taking the time to look for the perfect vacation spot for you and your family.

I am excited to have bought my home in beautiful Cape Coral, Florida in 2004, the French Riviera in 2015, and Antioquia, Colombia in 2012. I have owned and operated a successful business in SW, Florida, for the past 18 years. I hope you can enjoy my beautiful apartments and homes as much as I do.



Kind regards

Why they chose this property

Three beds, two baths, pool home on the gulf access, Thunderbird 8- lakes area in SW Cape Coral. Tastefully decorated with all amenities to make your vacation a memorable one. Amazing views for fishing Red Snapper, drum gish, and snook. Take your boat for a ride to Gulf, enjoy a dip in the newly resurfaced pool, or get a good night's sleep on the comfortable mattresses and high-quality linen. A 10-minute bike ride to the Westin resort, with many shops and restaurants. Newly renovated in April 2019. Amazing views, best location in Cape Coral. Quiet street for a good night's rest. Beautiful paved pool deck with amazing pool overlooking incredible views of Thunderbird lake. I lived in this home for five years and can say this area of Cape Coral is quiet, friendly, and full of life. Many parks are close to walking in the morning or evening. I renovated the bathrooms, painted, and laid new tiles for the enjoyment of my guests. The pool deck has comfortable tables and chairs for breakfast and lounges to get sun in the afternoon. A new Air conditioning unit was installed in September of last year to keep things cool. A jacuzzi bath for your relaxation in the master bedroom bathroom.

What makes this property unique

Gulf access, beautiful views, newly decorated in the best area of the city!
