The fully air-conditioned house features large rooms, a well-equipped kitchen, and whole-house sound and wireless internet access. There are multiple "smart" HD TVs, media players, and internet-connected Blu-Ray / DVD players throughout the home, so you'll never be short of entertainment options.

Okay

The property is up for sale, when it was time for us to check in there was a realtor at house showing it, my husband got out of truck and asked if they would be doing showings the whole time we was there, she told him no. We drove almost 15 hours we should have been able to pull in driveway park and unpack without having to wait a second. Then on Thursday I get a text from property owner about showing house, I did not reply, thinking they would decline the showing, nope Friday they show up, my husband goes outside and tells them they can’t come in we rented for the week and our personal items are in there, if they wanted to go in they would have to give us a night free they said no to that and left. If a house is on the market that should be known in description that there may be potential buys coming by to see house. The dishes was dirty had to clean before and after using, I had clean washer the best I could it smelled like mildew. Two of the supposed clean beds had sand in the sheets when we went to got to bed and sheets had to be washed. We left a day early because, we felt like we couldn’t go to beach because we wouldn’t leave our valuables in the house and we definitely was not going to leave them locked in our vehicles.

Perfect for Families

We were in Cape Coral for a family gathering. This home was perfectly set up for my large multi generation family. The owner is very generous with stocking the house with so much, best supplied home we've ever rented.

Beautiful spot with a warm pool

Our family had a lovely time at this property over the past 9 days. Some of our favorite things were the warm pool, the ample supplies thoughtfully laid in by the owner and the soft water. It's surprising to me how many rental homes have very hard water. The water here was awesome! We'd come again.

Great Week

I, along with the rest of my group, could not have asked for a better stay. The house had everything we needed and was in a great location. Property manager was a pleasure to deal with and even helped us out when we were in a bit of a jam at the end of the week when he had no obligation to do so. I would highly recommend staying at this property to anybody looking to stay in the Cape Coral/Ft. Myers area.

Thanksgiving and a 90 year birthday celebration

The house was perfect for a nice week with the family. The Lanai pool and outdoor space was very comfortable. Communication was perfect. The house was very comfortable and homey. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need to prepare melas even a big Thanksgiving dinner. Fantastic. We almost cancelled our trip due to Hurricane Ian but am glad we didn’t. Thanks to Dan and family for providing a great place for our family celebration.

Beautiful home...

A little frustrated that access didn't work when we got there, but was relatively easily fixed. Very clean and welcoming. Amazing supplies and top quality stuff from Bath Towels, beach towels ( both very thick- no thread bare stuff), DD coffee, zip lock baggies, shampoos, soaps, detergents, toilet paper, paper towels, - not just sample sizes or one or 2 rolls....very nice to have the basics plus some!! Pool was great- kids enjoyed it immensely.. Lots of pool toys and beach supplies... Very good time!!

Exhausted from all the fun!

Fantastic house! The kids (ages 8-14) loved the pool, searching for lizards, finding iguanas, watching the burrow owls, fishing off the dock, and walking around the neighborhood! We met the neighbor across the canal who had many stories to share and let us use his crab trap! We enjoyed watching a manatee swim around the canal as we enjoyed our morning coffee! Perfect location to visit Ft. Myers Beach and Sanibel Island! We appreciated all the beach towels to use for the pool and beach and the stocked kitchen was perfect!

Perfect Christmas vacation

We stayed here the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day. There were 11 of us ages 10-54…there was plenty of room for our 2 families to relax and enjoy the home. The pool was a huge hit and I’m pretty sure the two youngest members of our group spent more time in the pool that out of it. We took several day trips to Sanibel Island, the Everglades National Park, and Lover’s Key State Park. The house was the perfect central location to all of those places. The kitchen was well-stocked and the beds were comfy. Dan was easy to reach if needed and responded quickly to any questions. The iguana on the dock our first morning at the house was a fun delight for all of us!

All that we needed and More!

Everything that could possibly be needed for a first class vacation for a week, existed in and on this property. Lots space, beds for all, well-stocked kitchen with enough of what we needed to make a meal as far as utensils, dishes, pots and pans. TV in every room, but the bathroom, laundry room and garage! Outside by pool was a big hit for the kids as they did evening movie in the pool! Grill first class, amount of beach towels, clean, relaxing. Had all of our meals outside and enjoyed the view from there. The canal, changing pastel colors of the sky, and occasional bolts of lightening, rain and clouds. After all, if there’s not a thunderstorm in the evening daily, it’s not Florida. Property closely located to several beaches, and although there are many kid friendly activities, we thoroughly enjoyed hanging at the property most of the time. We came to relax, and in spite of small children and medium sized to supervise, we still felt rejuvenated at the end of the week. This trip was a welcome respite for a COVID-19 weary world. Hope to stay again in the future. Short report on the state of blow up pool toys, most have a leak, but we tried.😬

Why they chose this property

We were drawn to Cape Coral due to its exceptional blend of features that make it an ideal vacation spot. The easy accessibility to the gulf and beaches by boat or car, the convenience of the nearby airport, and the abundance of exciting activities and attractions in the area all contribute to the overall appeal of Cape Coral as a friendly and welcoming destination.

We were immediately captivated by its perfect combination of size, layout, location, and quality. As renters ourselves, we believe that Villa Alegria has everything you could ask for in a vacation home and we are confident that you will agree.
