Perfect Place for a Couple
The efficiency apartment was spotless and contained everything we needed-perfect for a couple. It was just a short 1/2 mile to the beach which included a walk through a friendly neighborhood. The hosts were warmly hospitable.

A Getaway for Two
My husband and I enjoyed this small cottage, attached to the main residence, but with its own separate door around the back of the property. The homeowners were very kind and helpful with information about the area; we enjoyed our chats and learning about additional tips and recommendations offered.The bed was very comfortable, and the kitchen was stocked appropriately for us to be able to prepare and cook meals. The bathroom was also newly remodeled and outfitted with a large shower. The whole beach area still has significant work being done after the hurricanes, but so much progress has been made. Traffic can be a challenge at times, but that is to be expected. We were more than happy to rent from someone living there and working to rebuild, a two-way blessing! Thank you!

Nice studio with outdoor spaces, near beach
We had another nice stay at Karen and Lloyd’s place. Suits our needs as a couple perfectly. Nice kitchen and bathroom, good TV with plenty of viewing options, comfortable bed and short walk to sugar sand beach. We were very happy to be back.

Wonderful and quiet place close to the beach
My wife and I had a wonderful stay here. The owners were the most friendly and welcoming folks you could ask for! The location was an easy short walk to the beach, but was still quiet and peaceful. The rental had everything we needed for the two of us. We would definitely come back!

Charming cottage—wonderful stay
This studio space is so nicely appointed with modern kitchen and bath, comfortable queen bed, nice TV viewing area and two outdoor spaces. Best of all worlds with the quiet of a dead end street but just a short walk to the beautiful white sand beach. So many thoughtful extras provided by the hosts who live on site and were lovely. Even post-Ian the island is alive and well with plenty of shops and restaurants. We’ll be back for sure!

Small but cozy
This showed up in my search for a 1 bedroom 3 months prior to my stay after being rejected for several other properties because they were booked. Surprised to see it was small studio apartment when I arrived. The property is at the end of cul-de-sac so very private. Disappointed in VRBO when I booked this, as I preferred a one bedroom and VRBO had this in the one bedroom search. Pictures don’t show just how small this place is. Because of this mis communication the owners almost kicked us out because it is not made to accommodate 3 adults. However the weather was great so it was just a place to rest our heads at night. After speaking with the owners they felt it was ok for us to stay for our planned duration after I explained I was lead to believe it would accommodate 3 adults. They were very informative and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Future renters beware of listings and contact the property manager prior to booking for more information.

Spring Break
The property is good for a couple. It's not extravagant but is clean, in a quiet neighborhood and pretty close to the beach. My wife and I utilized the free tram service to get to Times Square and points in between often. The traffic on Estero Blvd and the bridge onto the island can be a pain, but it's part of spring break in Florida.

It was okay for the price. Reasonably clean. A few updates needed but owner was very receptive to our suggestions. If you are on a budget this has what you need but not luxurious in any way….just basic…..but it is priced accordingly. Owner is very nice.
