About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Soak up Paradise and Relax in Heated Pool/Spa Home surrounded by Happy Wildlife
Heated Salt Water Pool and Spa on Marble Lanai, with large screened enclosure. This side-by-side home is fully equipped with appliances, linens, 2 kayaks, 2 bikes - just pack your bags for this vacation rental! Don't forget to BYOB... Boat* that is! (*contact Host for more information) Free use of ramp and slip, with shallow canal access to Matlacha Pass and Charlotte Harbor/Cayo Costa/North Captiva islands. Bokeelia is truly a forgotten paradise... once you drive over the bridge through Matlacha, you'll feel the vibe... fishing village, festive shops, variety of dining options, parks, sunsets, canals... you'll be surrounded by happy wildlife... dolphins, manatees, eagles, osprey, egrets, herons... even 2+ resident Gopher Tortoises on our property (look but DON'T touch or feed!) Even the Palm Trees love it here (Pine Island is the palm tree growing capital of the region!) Be aware there are no public beaches on Pine Island, which is surrounded by Gulf waters and bordered with mangroves. Ferries available to the barrier islands, one hour drive to Ft Myers beach. Our home and neighborhood were spared any water surge from Hurricane Ian, but the winds were destructive. We were very fortunate. After roof replacement and new lanai screening, we've added areca palms to our borders, and our home is back and better than before

Excellent vacation spot in SW Florida
The place was perfect for our family. Private, quiet, secluded and in a great central location for Pine Island. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The pool was in great condition and we were also able to use the provided bikes, kayaks, grill, and ither amenities. Hosts were great and were available as needed but also gave us our space and privacy

Spring break fun in the sun!
We had a wonderful vacation here! The pool and hot tub were relaxing. I loved the tile around the pool very nicely done! The house was clean and cozy. We enjoyed being able to stream on the TV with our apps that we have. We drove to Sanibel island one day. It was also nice to use our paddle boards in the nice channel by the house. We made it all the way out into the sound! Thank goodness you had paddles because we forgot ours! Our son used one of the bikes to ride around the neighborhood. Definitely a 10/10! It was nice to meet the owners too!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Pine Island Center, and it was nothing short of total relaxation. From the moment we arrived, we were impressed with every detail carefully thought out to ensure our comfort. Beds were comfortable, bathrooms spacious, kitchen well equipped. Very clean. Outdoor heated pool and whirlpool perfect. Hosts are warm, welcoming, and available to answer any questions.

Hot tub and pool were lovely, hosts are very nice. Unfortunately some of the art galleries, etc we were looking forward to visiting as listed on Pine Island tourist info were not there or shut down, so not much to do if you don’t fish.

amazing family vacation
Staying in this vrbo home is far superior to a hotel. We did both on our trip to florida. This house was so clean and a perfet fit for our family. The pool was a huge hit and the amenities of the kitchen and washer and dryer made our stay so comfortable . Pine island is so quaint with an old Florida feel. Small mom and pop spops delivered us amazing meals and endless entertainment.

Bokeelia
The property was clean, well kept and well stocked. The photos were a little nicer than the actual quality and I guess I didn’t notice beforehand that it was a duplex.
But well located, convenient to most everything, kayaks and boat docks were a big plus!
The owner was responsive and easy to communicate with.
Good value.

The home was beautiful and clean. The neighborhood was good with a boat launch across the street. The gopher tortoise was not nice. He would run so you see him. The pool area was perfect and after a long day enjoying everything the hot tub was great to relax in.
The owners were great to deal with. Communication was perfect and they were quick to respond with any questions. Definitely will book from them again.
