Baroni Family – Happy New Year
What a way to take a break from winter in Montreal... Loved the house – We felt at home from day 1. It’s gorgeous – has everything you need + more.
The kids loved the Sea Room + I am going to miss the Master bedroom – I know it!
A lot to do as a family:
Bush Garden – saw a white peacock!!!
All the beaches + shells at Sanibel/Captiva. The museum was great. (Shell Museum)
Imaginariun was fun too – On a cold day.
Shopping – All the outlets J .
The Everglades Gardens were amazing – Saw Alligators, Crocs, Bob Cats + didn’t have to go to the Everglades...
‘Total Wine’ is a shop to visit on day 1, so that you can stock up J.
You have to rent a boat – You would be missing way too much if you didn’t... Dolphins!!!
Enjoy, be safe. To the owner: thanks from the bottom of my hart!

The Ruekrnient’P & Lawhonis Family (Ohio, USA)
We swam, we ate, we fished, we sunbathed, we relaxed, WE HAD A GREAT TIME!!
The house is absolutely beautiful. We arrived on Saturday, after two long days in the car from Ohio. The weather was the 90’s all week. We visited Ft. Myers beach for a few hours and saw a sign for dolphin tour on jet skis! We really thought about it but decided to go for it. We got to the beach at 9:30 and got on jet skis and got to be in the Gulf of Mexico. The kids were loving it but had no idea we were looking for dolphins. We saw dolphins, a sling ray and a MANATEE. It was worth the $95 per Jet Ski.
Cape Coral, Florida is great and we had a great time. Now heading back to Ohio (Cold, raining). We want take the heat and palm trees with us!
Thanks so much!

Romsbottom Family (Lancashire England)
Our 18th visit to Florida – 3rd to Cape Coral, this is the most beautiful home we have stayed in. I will be forever dreaming of palm trees! Lovely decor! Perhaps as well it is our 3rd visit as we didn’t get as much exploring done as intended. Couldn’t drag myself away from the dock! Weather great except for some magnificent Thunder Storm in the last 2 days.
Do visit Shrimps Shack for the Crab legs; delicious (unfortunately, they only sell wine by the glass!) Best lobster ever at Houllihons (think they only have it Fri/Sat).
Thank you for allowing us to share your home and as Florida is a yearly destination, I’m sure we will be back.
Just a note, not a critism, an observation, a couple of beach chairs and a beach trolley would have been useful.
Best regard to you all!

Lovatt Family (Netherlands England)
We had a wonderful family stay with our 99 year old grandmother who now lives in Florida and her great grandson (8 months) all the way from England. Loved sitting by the water side with our sun dowset.
Lovely home, perfect for a baby and everything an adult would need too. We will miss the pool and the tranquility of the surrounding.
If you like Shark fishing, try `Sea Quest` at the Marina under the big bridge just before North Fort Myers... Good boat (43’), know their business, competitive price,... we cough 6 on night time trip, including one 8’ shark.

McGregor Family
Great holiday. The boat trip or boat hire is highly recommended. The ‘Outback Steakhouse’, on the US41 is the best place to eat! Fort Myers beach is the best place to be, and make sure you check out the ‘Segway tours’! Best experience ever!
Best regards to you all!

Isles Family
Second year in this wonderful house and yet again has scored a 10/10, especially with the children as they loved to go out fishing on the boat and enjoy paradise. We are out quite a lot of the time but our favorite was a seafood restaurant located in Bonita Spring called ‘The Big Hickory Fishing Nook’. It was quite a drive away but was 100% worth, it food and service was fab.
As we have a teenage daughter who always wants to be shopping, we discovered from 2 years of experiences that ‘Miromar Outlets’ and ‘Coconut Point’ were the best
And last of all, the best radio station: ‘Radio Bob 102.9 FM’.
Many thanks for letting us stay in your paradise home.
