About this property

Stay in the heart of town, just 5 minutes from fun, dining, and shopping!

  • Your Southwest Florida getaway awaits!

    Escape to this beautiful four-bedroom, two-bath waterfront retreat in Southwest Cape Coral, featuring a heated pool, direct Gulf access, and everything you need to enjoy the Florida lifestyle.

    Step inside and immediately feel the coastal charm, highlighted by a one-of-a-kind beach mural painted by Cape Coral artist Jane Ford. The home is comfortably appointed with all-new furniture and household goods, a fully stocked kitchen, flat-screen TVs in every bedroom, and premium Tommy Bahama mattresses for a restful night’s sleep.

    Love being on the water? You’re in the right place. With only one bridge and no lock between you and the Gulf, getting out on the water is easy and convenient. The Captain’s Walk boat dock features electricity, lighting, running water, a stainless steel fish-cleaning station, and a private Tiki hut overlooking the canal. Bring your morning coffee, relax with an evening drink, or simply sit back and enjoy the waterfront scenery and wildlife.

    When you’re ready to explore, restaurants, shopping, beaches, and downtown nightlife are all just minutes away.

    Heated pool. Waterfront living. Gulf access. And no additional electricity charge. Just arrive, settle in, and start enjoying Southwest Florida.

Darlene and James were awesome hosts. The property was amazing. The grandkids didn't want to get out of the pool. The home is close to everything and located in a very safe and quiet neighborhood. We wish we could have stayed longer.

We love this place! This was our second time staying here in 3 months. Our boys loved fishing off the dock, and the pool was always a favorite! The Wal-Mart is right up the road so that if we needed something, it was a quick trip. We will definitely go back!

The location is great. The kitchen is well stocked, bed very comfortable, well supplied. The pool is very clean and you can adjust temp to your liking. Drawbacks are cannot use garage and no bicycles. The decor is heavily "beachy." Love the location!!

Lovely place!

Such a wonderful home! Kitchen was far better stocked than any other homes we’ve visited, which made it so easy to prepare meals. The bedrooms and bathrooms were thoughtfully put together and so comfortable! The pool was warm & amazing…the kids loved it! The neighborhood was nice and quiet and the location on the canal could not be beat. Oh, and the TV and speedy internet was so appreciated as well! Will definitely stay here again. The hosts do an amazing job making you feel right at home!

Great Area and Home

We have been visiting Cape Coral during February for several years, and this was our favorite location and home to stay for a month. We enjoyed the lanai and pool area, and the size of the home was perfect for us. We appreciated the ample storage space, including the roomy closets. We felt right at home! The host was great and communicated very well. Check in and check out was a breeze! We definitely recommend this home for a long or short stay. It is nicely equipped and well located. Neighborhood Burrowing Owls were also so fun to watch!

The house had many good things, such as comfortable beds, nice pool, well stocked kitchen, nice bed linens, plenty of nice towels and the location was great. The problem we had was the cleanliness of certain areas. The bathroom floors around the toilets needed to be cleaned and the fan in the kitchen was very dirty. There were some dishes in cabinets that were not clean. Attention needs to be made to cleaning the house. The tub and shower floors needed bath mats, as they were very slick and no grab bars were available. If traveling with elderly people, be aware as we had to buy non slip mats for safety. All these things are just a heads up for the owner, the house itself is nice, just needs a bit of TLC.

We booked this at the last minute and the hosts were very accommodating. We had a wonderful experience. I’m very picky and this house was just what we were looking for. The homes Open layout was great. Bright morning AND afternoon light filled the house which I enjoyed so much. Sunset views off the canal. It was nicely furnished and the views of the pool and canals were lovely. We fished a bit but mostly enjoyed the pool and relaxing at the Riki bar on the dock. Location was exceptional!!! Close to most of the popular waterfront Restaurants. With this central location we were able to explore Cape Coral, Fort Myers, Punta Gorda and Sanibel Island.

Excellent stay! We really appreciated all of the extras that you don’t always find in vacation rentals. A well stocked kitchen with cooking essentials, pots, pans, utensils, etc., beach chairs and umbrella (even rain umbrellas!), beach towels, and fishing poles. We visited around Christmas and they had a beautiful Christmas tree and decorations up which added to our enjoyment. The pool was heated which was great for evening swims. Best vacation rental we’ve ever stayed at! Thank you!!
