About this property

Beautiful home with private south pool in gated community. Close to the beaches!


Welcome to paradise! In the middle of a chaotic world, South Pointe is a peaceful clean oasis. We have always had happy guests & most say South Pointe is better then the pictures! We have all the EXTRAS you need for an amazing vacation but no extra fees! Our rates are set & there are NO extra surprises. Come see for yourself!

South Pointe is in a quiet gated community in south Fort Myers called Beachwalk Isles. It has lakes & lush tropical landscaping. Our house has a private backyard with patio & a heated southern exposure pool! We delight in adding new tropical landscaping for your enjoyment. Our home is complete with high speed WiFi & HD satellite TV. We have a WFH space in the master suite with a desk & lamp. We also have a large collection of DVDs & books!

South Pointe was built in 2002 & has had many recent updates. Our clean bathrooms have newer tile, vanities, & solid surface counters. The kitchen is upgraded with dark wood flooring, stainless appliances, & quartz counter tops. Everyone seems to love our eclectic decorating style! The house is about 1500 sq ft plus the relaxing pool & expanded patio area & a garage. There is an eat in kitchen in the front which opens to the great room which consists of dining area and livingroom. This has a 55' flatscreen TV & blu ray DVD player. The patio doors open up to the lanai with a covered seating area and onto the heated southern exposure pool! For your dining pleasure, there is a gas grill, table & chairs plus patio loungers.

Back in the great room, a private hall leads to the laundry room, guest bath (shower/tub combo), & 2 guest bedrooms (both have comfortable queen beds, dressers, & large closets). The large master suite includes a queen bed, sitting area with its own flat screen TV, large custom walk in closet, & beautiful bath with 2 sinks, walk in shower with seating, & linen closet.

Because we were renters ourselves for many years, we include lots of extras! The house is stocked with paper products, laundry soap, dishwasher soap, vacuum, cleaning supplies, etc. There are beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, beach toys, & plenty of beach towels. There are 2 bicycles in the garage for your use! There is an iron, ironing board, & 2 hair dryers. We have tried to put everything in the kitchen we would want including a smoothie maker, mixer, lots of dishes & flatware, serving bowls, every type of bakeware, pots & pans, & lots of spices for cooking.

South Pointe is a comfy house with a big heart! It already holds lots of love & fond memories & yours are waiting to be made here!

Our area has everything! There is a Super Target across the street plus coffee shops (including Starbucks), hair salons, restaurants, banks, Publix (grocery), Beals Outlet, Tanger Outlet Mall abt 1 mile, world famous Love Boat Ice Cream, & all kinds of neat little shops everywhere! Red Sox & Twins spring training camps are only 15 minute drive! Great flea markets! Many golf courses! Fresh seafood markets! But what we love best are the beaches! It's a short drive to Sanibel-Captiva Islands or Ft Myers Beach straight down San Carlos Blvd. Lovers Key State Park is only a short drive as well! There are so many gorgeous beaches close by it's hard to choose!

We love South Fort Myers & we love our home! We know you will too!!!

Fantastic Rental

Our experience with the owners and the rental unit was nothing but outstanding. The property is exactly as described, if not better and the owners could not be any more accommodating! We had an excellent experience and a fantastic vacation and would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a place in the Ft. Myers area.

Wonderful Home Away from Home!

The property presents lovely on-line, but is far more impressive in-person. LaVaun thought of everything! She has every amenity you could ever need for a comfortable stay. I highly recommend staying here -- you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful vacation!

We had a wonderful vacation at South Pointe. The home is exactly as pictured, lovely and comfortable. It was extremely clean and welcoming! The owners were wonderful to deal with and responded to all of our questions in a very timely manner. They have thought of everything! We vacationed with our daughter and her family which included two small boys and South Pointe was just perfect. We truly enjoyed Fort Myers!

WE LOVE SOUTH POINTE

Thank you for letting us celebrate our anniversary in your home. It was everything it was advertised to be and more. Clean, pleasantly decorated home with plenty of room. The location of the home is perfect for what we do and where we spend the majority of our time while in Ft Myers visiting family, sightseeing in the area or relaxing by the pool. We will be back on our next trip to Ft Myers.

4 stars because our guests were disappointed there weren't TVs in the rooms

We LOVED the home. It was comfortable , tastefully decorated and very close to the beach! The ONLY reason I didnt give a 5 star review was because the other people staying with us were disappointed there weren't televisions in their rooms. Rod and LaVaun thought of EVERYTHING you could possibly need! The pool came in very handy as the weather was very warm! Very nice property!

Perfect Rental Minutes from the Beach

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful, relaxing week at this property and it was perfect. LaVaun and Rod have thought of everything, you can literally pack only your clothes and still have everything you need or possibly think of. The pool was perfect as it has great sun exposure all day and it is so peaceful in this adorable neighborhood. The house is recently renovated with a large kitchen and beautiful tropical landscape out the window. Other than the pool, I really enjoyed the massive shower in the master bathroom and the beds were very comfortable! Fort Myers beach was maybe a five to ten minute drive, but the location is great because you are so close to shopping and restaurants. A great rental, I highly recommend to anyone!

Beautiful Home near Beaches and Attractions

This home was a Godsend to us! We loved everything about it- Open floor plan so while I was in the kitchen I could visit with everyone in the livingroom! It was spotless and completely updated. Beautifully decorated. The pool was clean and provided many hours of enjoyment for my kids (7-17). There were beach chairs in the garage and an umbrella (don't forget the bottom pole like we did :/) The location was so convenient for us, with Super Target and Dollar Tree on one side of us and Publix on the other (Home is in a gated community so a very quiet neighborhood). An Orange Leaf is also across the street. The owners are wonderful kind people and very easy to work with! Nothing but good vibes. We left a fishing pole and a tackle box for the next renters. We hope you have better luck but we sure enjoyed the dolphin watching :) Must see: Barefoot Beach where big tortoises roam the parking lot!! Highly recommend staying here!!! Thanks Rod & LaVaun!

A pleasant home

We really enjoyed staying at South Pointe. Everything was clean and well equipped, the beds were very comfortable. We would definitely stay here again in case we are going to visit Fort Myers another time. The only thing we didn't like that much was the quite short list of available TV Channels.

About the host

Hosted by LaVaun Johnson

Host profile image
Rod & LaVaun are both Midwesterners & now live in Ft Myers full time. We are only 5 minutes away. We have been happily married for 43 years with 2 adult children, their spouses & 4 adorable grandchildren! They are God's greatest gift to us! We have traveled to many places. But our favorite spot to vacation in the US has been south Fort Myers area. 13 years ago we decided to look for a home here to share it with others as a vacation rental! Our search ended in July 2012 when we found South Pointe & began to put our personality into it! We absolutely love our home, neighborhood, & area. We think you will too!

Why they chose this property

South Pointe is not just your basic vacation rental. It is filled with extras so you don't have to buy all those little & big things you need to enjoy your vacation! Such as all the pool toys & floats, everything you need for the beach (towels, coolers, ice packs, beach chairs, umbrella, toys) & if you want to go for a bike ride, there are 2 bikes in the garage for you to use! We start you off with paper towels, toilet paper, napkins, dish, soap, dishwasher pods, laundry soap, and baggies. If you like to cook, the kitchen is equipped with spices, condiments in the frig, & every type of baking dish you need! The cabinets are filled with silverware, glasses, & dishes. If you like to read, we have lots of books. If you like to watch movies, we have a collection of dvd's plus our Xfinity TV!

Beachwalk Isles is the perfect community with some fulltime residents & some part time & everyone is friendly! People love to walk & on our quiet streets & you can do just that! It is a safe neighborhood, day & night. You feel secluded here with the peaceful tropical surroundings but just outside the gate everything you could want is close at hand! Shops, restaurants, fitness center, & a short drive to the beaches! There’s a Super Target across the street & a Walmart 5 minutes away. The house is the perfect size with an open welcoming floor plan! The heated pool is so relaxing! We love it & you will too!

What makes this property unique

We love the open floor plan of our home. You can be in the kitchen & see clear out to the pool! We also love that the master suite is separated for privacy. There is also a laundry room instead of just a laundry closet! We looked at many many properties in our home search but this home, neighborhood, & area are perfect for us & know it will be for you also!

South Pointe has it all!
