About this property
Hidden Tropical Oasis Near Beaches | Outdoor Fireplace, Saltwater Pool, Spa & Ultimate Privacy
Tucked away beneath towering palms and surrounded by lush tropical greenery, this hidden South Fort Myers retreat feels worlds away from the crowds — yet beaches, restaurants, shopping, and entertainment are all just minutes from your doorstep. If you’ve been searching for a vacation home that feels private, peaceful, family-friendly, and unlike the typical cookie-cutter Florida rental, you’ve found it.
Set beside an undeveloped preserve on a quiet unpaved road just off historic McGregor Boulevard, the property offers a rare “Old Florida” atmosphere filled with swaying palms, banana trees, coconut trees, and incredible privacy in every direction. Guests looking for a polished subdivision setting should note this home has a more secluded, natural, rural-feel environment — one of the very things many visitors end up loving most about it.
Designed for relaxed Southwest Florida living, the home combines comfortable indoor spaces with an unforgettable outdoor oasis that quickly becomes the heart of your vacation. Spend your days floating in the heated saltwater pool beneath the screened lanai, soaking in the spa, grilling dinner outdoors, or gathering around the unique wood-burning fireplace as evening settles over the preserve.
Inside, nearly 1,700 square feet of living space includes 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and sleeping accommodations for up to 8 guests with an owner-provided queen air mattress. The open main living area gives everyone room to relax together, with a reclining sectional, large Smart TV with Xfinity cable, electric fireplace, dining table for 8, and easy access to the outdoor living space.
The kitchen is fully equipped for vacation meals at home, featuring stainless steel appliances, granite counters, a refrigerator with water and ice maker, bar seating for 3, cookware, dinnerware, small appliances, and kitchen tools.
The split-bedroom floor plan gives families and groups extra privacy. The primary suite includes a king bed, Smart TV with Xfinity cable, and ensuite bathroom with dual sink vanity, private toilet room, and a large walk-in shower with dual shower heads, including a relaxing rainfall shower. One guest bedroom offers a queen bed and Smart TV with Xfinity cable, while the second guest bedroom includes two twin beds. A shared guest bathroom has a bathtub/shower combination.
Outdoors, this home truly separates itself from the average vacation home. The fully screened lanai includes a private heated saltwater pool with waterfall feature, spa, sundeck, rattan seating area, bar-height table, and Smart TV with Xfinity cable. Just beyond the lanai, enjoy an open patio with a wood-burning fireplace, outdoor dining table, chaise loungers, and self-service grill. Guests provide their own wood, charcoal, or propane as needed.
Additional conveniences include a laundry room with washer, dryer, and laundry tub; full-sized garage refrigerator/freezer for guest use; bed linens; bath, pool, and kitchen towels; unlimited WiFi; and driveway parking.
The location is wonderfully convenient while still feeling tucked away.
You’ll be approximately 3 miles from the Fort Myers Beach trolley station, 5 miles from Fort Myers Beach, 6 miles from the Sanibel Causeway, 9 miles from downtown Fort Myers, and 17 miles from RSW International Airport.
Spend your vacation shelling on Sanibel, exploring Captiva, relaxing on Fort Myers Beach, dining along McGregor or in the River District, golfing, kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, biking, or simply enjoying your own private tropical retreat at home.

The house was perfect for me and my 3 teenagers. We enjoyed everything about the house. It was peaceful and cozy. Thank you! I hope we get to stay there again.
we had a wonderful time despite the cold weather for the first week. House was very comfortable and we were able to enjoy the pool once the weather warmed up.
The home was absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed the pool and hot tub everyday!! Plenty of space for our family! We will definitely stay here again if we are ever in the area!
Overall a good place to stay. The pool area and pool itself could use a good cleaning. The house was very clean. Location felt safe and was very quiet.
Had a great family Winter vacation visiting Sanibel Island, Ft. Myers Beach & Ft. Myers. House is very conveniently located if you are looking to explore the area and visiting several different beaches.
This property is a hidden gem from the hustle and bustle of Fort Myers. The description is very accurate and exactly what we expected! Check in process and email communications were easy to understand. We will be back!
We've stayed in Fort Meyers for our last 3 vacations. This was by far the best house we've stayed in. Our only complaint would be the beds. This place could definitely use some new mattresses. We would stay here again hands down. Great location to Fort Meyers Beach and Sanibel, close to stores and restaurants. We would recommend this house to anyone staying in this location.
My wife and I loved this home! The inside is beautiful: neat, comfortable, and tasteful. The outside, however, is where the true beauty is! The back yard is totally private, so you can use the pool and spa at your leisure without feeling like you’re being watched. The pool and spa are well heated, and we used them often! The grounds are impeccably maintained, and the outside sitting areas are lovely and comfy. We highly recommend this property, and we plan to return to it!
The home is beautiful and well equipped kitchen. We cooked every night and found everything we needed. The pool area and outdoor entertaining is fabulous. The sauna and pool took a bit to heat up, but we loved the fireplace. The main "con" is the area is off a gravel road and from the drive in, the surrounding area is not great but we never felt unsafe. The home is beautiful!
The home is beautiful I felt at home. The cleanliness was ok. I personally would have done a better job. There are dust and cobwebs all over cabinets in kitchen. But that won’t stop us from renting here again. We loved the location we can get anywhere within 30 mins. The house was well maintained. We enjoyed our vacation
We stayed 6 nights in March 2025. 3 Guests in town for viewing college baseball in Ft. Myers. The house is in great shape. The area is private, with nothing across the street. The neighborhood is a little bit of a mixed bag; the privacy of the property is great. Everything you'll need for your stay is provided. The beds are comfy, the spa is nice and hot, and the pool is perfect. It's a great property and the management was super responsive to the two things we needed looking at. We'll likely be back!

The property was nice overall. The two biggest things were the pool temps seemed cool even to a northerner and there was a random van parked in the garage. This made the garage unusable and our vehicle had to sit outside in a sketchy area.
We enjoyed our stay here! The pool and back patio is where we spent most of our time. We truly loved the privacy of all those palms!
We were thankful for the iTrip point of contact sending a maintenance man for the refrigerator upon our arrival as it wasn't cooling. The only issue I feel like needs adjusting is the timing of the front sprinklers. Every other night they go off at 3 am directly at the windows. I requested for this to be changed, but I guess it's not such a simple fix. Minor, but sleep disrupting for me as a momma. We also couldn't get the fan or overhead lights to work in the room with twin beds. Not a huge deal as the lamp worked, but weird nonetheless.
Overall, the house is exactly as listed! Thank you for sharing this property for our family memories!
The house itself is as awesome! It was clean and we felt right at home! The pool was amazing! Especially with it being screened in and having a seating area with a ceiling for shade! My only complaint is that at 7 AM one morning we lost water at the house (the house is on a well) we were in a hurry to leave so I sent an email to the maintenance email address. We got home around 3PM and there was still no water and no emails back from anyone. I called and nobody answered. It rang and rang. Luckily have a lot of well experience (I own a well business in a different state) and after 2 hours of fixing we were back up and running. I called the line again and somebody did answer but it was just an answering service. They said a manager would reach out to me. I’m still waiting on that phone call lol. Still with that negative experience I would still give it a 4 star review!!
We had an absolutely wonderful stay! The location area and home was beautiful and hit every single thing that we needed. The lanai and pool, and patio area was beautiful. The privacy was also excellent and we had an amazing time. Along with this, the host was incredibly accommodating, responsive, and overall provided an amazing experience. We will definitely be coming again. We would recommend this to anyone and everyone!
Pretty home and well decorated. Close to shopping, restaurants and beaches. Kitchen well equipped and beds very comfortable.

Winter Getaway
Great place for friends of over 40 years to gather for a few days while we escaped winter's grasp. The home is very well appointed, plenty spacious, and the landscaping out back by the pool/hot tub makes for a very private oasis. A tremendous value!
We will be back.
