About this property

Times Square Gem! 4BR Canal front home, private Pool/Spa, Sleeps 12

PRIMO POOL AND PALMS IS BACK BETTER THAN EVER! Fort Myers Beach is rebounding quickly from Hurricane Ian which caused major damage to the area on 9/28/22. There's still evidence of the hurricane in areas but the beach has been super busy and there's lots of restaurants and bars, beach shops and water sports open again. And you won't see any signs while at Primo Pool and Palms as its been fully renovated from top to bottom, inside and out, and is just waiting for you to come and enjoy a stay!

This is a private 2100 Sq Ft, Tropically landscaped canal front home located in the north end of Fort Myers Beach with quick and easy on/off access to the Island. There's a large driveway for plenty of parking included. But the best part is the large private heated pool and spa. If you want to be in the heart of the action, but yet be able to slip away quickly to enjoy some quiet time, this is the place!

Primo Pool and Palms is walkable to the Beach, Times Square and Old San Carlos Blvd where you will find water sport rentals, beach shops and plenty of bar/restaurants. A beach cart and beach chairs are included that you can take down to the beach. Or you can just stay put and relax in the free form pool with tanning platform and attached spa surrounded by the tropically landscaped yard. You can also sit on the large dock and look for the manatees and dolphins that occasionally visit the canals. Maybe a kayak cruise for two into the intercoastal to look for Dolphin, Manatee or bird watching. Relax in the hammock and listen to the sway of the palms. And If you're a boater, bring/rent a boat and tie up to the dock and be just minutes from the Gulf! You will feel that you have found a hidden Oasis at Primo Pool and Palms!

The rental rate does include access to the tandem kayak, along with all of the other great amenities at Primo Pool and Palms.

The lay-out of this 4 bedroom home allows for plenty of privacy with an Upper Level that features 2 Bedrooms (1 King and 1 Queen), Bath, Kitchen, Dining Area, Living Area with daybed with 2 twins that can convert to a king bed, and has an open upper lanai. There's a Lower Level that also features 2 Bedrooms (1 King and 1 Queen), Bath, Kitchen and Living Area with queen sleeper sofa. For privacy, just close the entry doors that separate the levels or leave open for free flowing access to the entire house.

The bedrooms have new mattresses and they are encased in Allerease protection cases. Pillows are also in Allerease cases. Each room has an extra set of sheets. There's a Samsung Smart TV in every bedroom. The upper level primary bedroom overlooks the pool and canal with its own access to the upper lanai.

The Living areas have comfy seating and both have 60" Samsung Smart TVs with cable and there is wi-fi throughout the house. You will also find games, books and puzzles.

Both Kitchens have new cabinets, appliances and granite counters and are fully stocked for your cooking needs. The upper level kitchen has a built in desk area for those needing to "plug in" while on vacation. The lower level is a kitchenette, no oven. But has a full size fridge, dishwaser, microwave and two burner stove top, a airfryer and has quick access to the Grilling area.

Did not disappoint!

Great property, great location! We stayed here with our family (8 adults and 4 children) plenty of space, beds, towels etc. Pool was awesome, couldn't get the kids out. The owner was GREAT to work with and very accommodating. I was very nervous as this was my first time renting through VRBO and I was not disappointed. Would stay here again.

Awesome place Great Location

This home is just as advertised. Great vacation house with a stellar location. House has everything you need and is kept up nice. The pool and spa were great for family fun in the sun. Kitchens have everything you need if you like to cook. The location is really nice, if you like to go on short strolls or bike rides there is no need to drive anywhere. Barb is polite and great to deal with should you have any questions or need anything.

As advertised

Many times you'll see things online that exaggerate the real product - not with this place. All the rooms were great and very comfortable. The pool and patio area is probably one of the best in the area. A close walk to the beach, shopping and dining; this place has it all. Barb is also excellent to work with and eliminates any anxiety about the rental process. 5 stars for me.

Superb Stay!!

Our family had a wonderful stay at Primo, for a special trip! It was a wonderful home base for exploring the island. Clean, comfortable, well appointed house! Lots of extra provided. The pool, patio & dock were the stars of the show and provided a fantastic gathering spot. Location was super for walking or biking to Times Square, other shops and restaurants, and the beach. Barb was super helpful and easy to communicate with! Thanks for everything!

One of the best vacations yet!

Wow! Where do I begin? We have taken many vacations and this one is definitely at the top! The house is beautiful, clean, well-stocked, close to everything yet a private feel. The owners are exceptional! The communication, hospitality and just plain friendliness were exceptional. We typically always try new places but we are going back to FMB next year and are booking with Barb.

LOVED Primo Pool and Palms!!

My husband and I rented this amazing property for a week in December 2021 with our children and grandchildren and thoroughly enjoyed every minute! Barb was so wonderful to work with and it was super fast to get a question answered when we had them! Location was just perfect for ease of getting to the beach, Times Square and all the restaurants we wanted! House was exactly as pictured and described! Plenty of pool and sand toys, beach chairs, wagon, bikes, etc. Primo Pool and Palms was perfect for our vacation and we hope to stay again soon!!

Family Vacation

Our family vacation at Primo Pool & Palms was very enjoyable. We had great times at the backyard pool and hot tub as well as the beach. The location is very conducive to walking everywhere. The amenities of an umbrella stroller, wagon for going to the beach, beach chairs, sand toys for little ones and pool accessories was very much appreciated. Barb was very easy to contact before and during our stay. We only had one question while there and she replied immediately. The book with restaurant and excursion recommendations was very helpful. Thanks Barb for sharing your house with us.

Great rental

Barb was great to work with! The rental property is absolutely beautiful! This is the 1st rental where we didn't need for anything! The house is equipped with all the necessary items! The items I brought we didn’t need because this home has it all! The patio ring/hook was great family entertainment! We used the bikes daily and the beach Items (chairs and cart). The pool and hottub was beautiful and enjoyed by all! We would definitely rent this lovely property again.

Totally deserves it's 5 star rating

We were thrilled with this property. It is as lovely as the pictures suggest, with an amazing large pool and outside area. Easy short walk to times square and beach. Nice neighbourhood. Barb, property owner, was brilliant with communication with us both before and during our stay. There was a small issue during our stay, and Barb was straight away dealing with it, even though the issue could not have been avoided or of her making and she kept us informed throughout. We had a look to see if we could book next year, but calendar is already quite full of bookings, and now we have vacationed there, we know why it is so popular. We would love to come back one day. Thank you Barb for a great stay.

Amazing!

This property goes above and beyond! The outdoor living space is simply amazing! From the pool to the hot tub to the outdoor TV/sound system to the abundance of seating. And, let's not forget about the view of the canal...it is all simply wonderful! The neighborhood is quite peaceful and you're just a short walk away from the beach as well as the shops and restaurants. If you're ok taking a shuttle or uber from the airport, you don't need a car (though it did come in handy for groceries). The house is very clean and very well maintained! Barb goes above and beyond to ensure you have what is needed for a wonderful stay in their property. There are beach towels, extra blankets, fans, two washers and dryers, plenty of towels, games, an abundance of kitchen utensils/cookware, etc. Barb is very detailed in her communication and was available for questions. We could not have asked for anything more in a rental home for our stay! I would highly recommend you consider this property for your next stay in Ft. Myers Beach! It is a great value given all the amenities!

Spring Break -- Family Style!

We had a fantastic experience at Primo Pools and Spa! The house and grounds were immaculate and contained everything we needed! We had 11 people staying with us, 6 adults and 5 kids (ages 3-18). We ate most meals on the patio, deck, or by the pool. It's so beautiful, there was no reason to leave!! The kitchen is stocked with everything you need, including pancake griddle and blender. We also used the grill most nights while listening to music on the new Sonos speakers or watching the NCAA basketball tournament on the outdoor TV. Everyday we took the short walk to the beach. Barb has stocked the shed with chairs and tons of sand toys that the kids loved. We also spent hours in the pool and hot tub. They loved the floaties that were left in the storage container under the deck. In the evenings we walked down to the pier to see the sunset over the ocean, check out the street performers, and get some ice cream! We did go out to eat twice and would highly recommend both places. We went to the Yucatan and Nervous Nellies. Both were walkable, kid friendly, and had great food! (One recommendation...get groceries before crossing the bridge to the island. There is a Walmart and Publix. The traffic on the island is pretty crazy so we drove only when necessary.) Thanks for making our trip so wonderful Barb!!

The back yard is paradise! The house in its entirety was very nice and perfect for our family of 9. It definitely could of been cleaned better. We found old water bottles and trash in the cabinets and under the beds and such, and it could use a deep cleaning, but we would definitely stay there again! Thank you for sharing your home with us.

Another fantastic stay!

This is our second stay with Barb- last year we stayed in her other property- and had another fantastic stay! We loved how much room this home had, it gave us lots of privacy, and it's beautiful and well done. The pool and outdoor areas are great, we loved being on the canal and using the kayaks. The bikes came in handy for quick runs down to our favorite taco joint and the doghouse at the end of the street. Excellent proximity to times square and the beach. The street is quiet. Barb is an excellent host and we're planning on staying with her again next year!

About the host

Host profile image
Like so many people we have met while in Florida, we are from the Mid West. We live in Michigan. And like so many fellow Michiganders, we enjoy running away from the cold months that we experience here! And just LOVE Fort Myers Beach for its warm climate, beautiful beaches and laid back vibe!

Why they chose this property

Loved the Location...Close to everything! We felt it had the best of both worlds with the beach and a quaint town just a short walk away, Yet private and secluded when we want quiet time. We've spent many family vacations in Florida...Orlando, St Pete/Tampa, Clearwater, but we love being further south in Florida with the warmer temperatures that Fort Myers Beach offers during our cold Michigan Winters!

What makes this property unique

We have put a lot of time into renovating the house and yard...a lot of sweat and tears! And are so thrilled with the outcome, especially the pool and the landscaping - So love all of the palm trees! It's so hard each time we have to leave to go back home to Michigan, as we just love our little piece of paradise and are hoping you will love it too!
