Waterfront Home w/ Private Pool in Cape Coral

Reviews

• Nice place to get away

  4/5

  We were there during the tropical storm Debby and we never lost power. We never found the garage door opener so that was a pain. The house reminds me of a grandma house-decoration wise. The 3d bedroom with the futons was less than inviting but overall it was a nice stay.

• Tropical Storm worthy!!

  5/5

  Easy check and check out. The stay was great during Tropical Storm Debby-the power stayed on as the winds whipped and howled. We couldn’t find the garage door opener (even after calling the contact person) for the car, so we had to do a work around but other than that, the master bed was super comfy.

• Some issues but overall would book again.

  4/5

  When we first arrived I immediately noticed that the pool was extremely green. I messaged the host and though it took him a few hours to get back with me, the issue was worked on. Cape Coral had had some flooding the week prior and I'm guessing that this is what had caused the pool to get green. My kids swim in lakes in Alabama so it wasn't too big of a deal but to pay $900 for a week you would expect the pool to be clear. The house was a bit dated but overall pleasant. Plenty of space and clean. It would be nice if the host would provide more essentials such as trash bags, dish soap, and other cleaning supplies. As with three kids, you can imagine I was cleaning the entire week. The beds were extremely comfortable and the kitchen was stocked with plenty of cookware so I was able to cook all the meals I needed. Nice large refrigerator and not one but two coffee makers.

  The home is older, but in great condition. Lots of space to spread out. In a quiet neighborhood with a nice view over the canal in the back. It would be nice if the pool was heated! Overall a great experience.

• House is decent, location is not beach friendly

  3/5

  Our stay was fine. The house had everything we needed and was in decent condition, but the age of the bathrooms was evident. The pool is not heated, so it was too cold for adults to swim, but the kids enjoyed it. We stayed the last week of March, so the pool is probably warmer in later months. This is not a luxury rental, but the price reflects that.

  Be aware that this house is easily 30-40 minutes to the closest public beach. Traffic in the area was very heavy at all times of the day, so expect longer travel times for even short trips to the store, etc.
