Best vacation rental ever

House was just as described- super clean and roomy and the pool was perfect- even in 90 degree heat it was cool! The kitchen was by far the best stocked of any rental I’ve ever had! Lots of beach chairs, towels, pool & ocean toys - my family & I enjoyed every minute - short walk to beach also

Well stocked!

We loved our stay at this well kept home. There was many beds, large decks, an extra tank of propane, beautiful pool and area, well stocked kitchen and lots of linens. The location was great for the beach, entertainment and best of all shopping. We would definitely stay here again if we were back in this area.

Perfect home, perfect location!!!!

We've stayed in the Bonita Beach area for the last 20 years and have found the most perfect house of all, it fits all 12 of us easily, is well equipped for that size of group also. With its location close to the beach and golf courses within a short drive it's the best of oth worlds!!!! B & G are awesome to deal with and make the stay like it's our own home!

Great location and house for large group

We had a wonderful time on our spring break. We had a total of 15 of us and everything was great. The pool was perfect when we were tired of the beach, which is as super short walk. The house had everything we needed and more for a comfortable stay. Would definitely book again if we come to this area.

Family wedding & reunion

This was one of the best equipped rental properties we have ever encountered! Everything and anything we needed was there. The property manager worked with us about getting access since we had 5 couples traveling in from all over the country. Heated pool was a real bonus in December. Great stay.

I would rate it 7 Stars if I could.

Great property and a great location. Plenty of room for all 10 of us. Two washers and Dryers made staying up on laundry easy. Loved the wagon to move stuff back and forth to the beach. Would recommend to anyone to stay at this property.

Slice of Heaven

The home and pool were immaculate. Great location. Not too far of a walk to the beach. They even had a cooler, rafts, beach chairs, and wagon to put everything in to transport to the beach. Excellent communication with the manager and owners. I would stay there again and I highly recommend.

Great family holiday

We enjoyed a week long family Thanksgiving holiday. The house was ideal for the total family offering space to gather and room to get away. It is also situated close to the beach in an area that offers many activities as well as a local bar - no worries about driving. The house is in walking distance to two places to eat - Reco Coconut Jacks over Doc's Beach House for food. The house is well maintained and owners are accessible if needed.

Beautiful!

This was a beautiful and spacious house, close to the beach and your own private pool right in the back yard!! It was like your own slice of paradise all to your self. The house is clean and updated. I liked walking to the beach and in walking distance to a couple restaurants as well. Would recommend to all!!!!

Summer in November

As always Fla. is a great place to visit and staying here is probably the best part about it. We did a girls trip and had a great time. The house is perfect for adults and kids alike. The pool enclosed by the beautiful lanai makes for a perfect gathering place for all. The ocean is a hop, skip and a jump and Coconut Jacks is our favorite place for 5:00 somewhere! You're gonna LOVE it!

Perfect in every way - location, features, comfort

From the moment we drove in the driveway we were happy. The house layout and the location are perfect! We had 8 adults and 2 young children (our family) spending the week together. The house was everything we could ask for with separate areas for each couple. The pool area was such a great spot to hang out and enjoy the beautiful sunshine if you didn't want to walk to the beach. Loved everything about the interaction with the owners as well as the overall vacation. Best vacation.

Perfect snowbird hideaway

Our five couple group enjoyed a week together in this beautiful home. The location is a short drive from the Ft Myers airport and a minute walk to Bonita beach. There are plenty of great restaurants nearby and Naples is short drive to the south. Five bedrooms, four baths, two laundries, two family rooms and a fully equipped kitchen made us all very comfortable. We enjoyed ocean views from the deck, fishing from the dock and the large, lanai covered pool. We would love to return.

Great location and awesome house for family of 10

My family and I enjoyed our time at this Bonita Beach property. The house is in a great location, just a short walk to the beach. The spacious house provided our 3 families each with their own space. Outdoor space is awesome, we spent a good deal of time there. Kids loved the pool. Several restaurants within walking distance - our favorite - Cocount Jacks. Sweet Melissa’s for ice cream (a short drive) - was a daily stop.

Great House right near the beach

My family and I stayed here, and we really loved the placed. A great house with a dock out back for fishing, swimming pool, sunset deck, a nice kitchen to cook, and its a 1 minute walk to the beach. We mostly enjoy the local amenities, but don't mind being only a couple minutes from fort meyers. Its big enough for the whole family and between kayaking the canals, enjoying the pool, walking to beach, and playing cards outside on the screened in lanai, we realized that this is the place to stay. Awesome house, awesome location, you can't beat this place.

Great house and excellent location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The layout of the house is excellent for larger groups. There is plenty of room to be together, but not feel cramped. The pool was the favorite spot for everyone to gather and relax. The location with Doc’s just a 2 minute walk away was perfect. Would absolutely stay here again when coming to Bonita Springs. The owners and property manager were great to deal with, very responsive readily available if needed. Thank you for sharing your house with us.

Awesome vacation! This house is perfect for adults with kids/teenagers or multiple families vacationing together. Great set up with plenty of bedrooms, bathrooms, and laundry upstairs and down. Lots of living space and everything you could want/need while away from home! It has a great dock, a beautiful pool with an enclosed lanai that provided a fun hang out in the evening and it's a quick walk to the beach! The kitchen had everything needed to feed a large group and the upstairs deck with the grill was perfect! We would highly recommend this house and the location. We can't wait to stay here again!

Perfect house for all15 of us!!

4 families came from all across the US to meet at this home. We had never been to Bonita Springs. What a wonderful house! We felt so comfortable and at home here. The entire Bonita Springs area is fantastic! From the AMAZING beaches to the fantastic fishing guide next door, our vacation (celebrating CHRISTmas, a birthday, New Year's, & a 50th wedding anniversary) was too much fun!! We will definitely visit again. Thank you very much for allowing us to rent your home.

Great Place for a Big Family

In the summer of 2014, we took a week to relax by the beach and we couldn't have chosen a better house than this one! It accommodated our every need...space for two families with kids, grandmothers who couldn't go up stairs, even boat lovers who could tie up to their dock. The house is appointed in EVERY way possible. Barry & Gretchen have made this a home away from home. We were right across from the beach, had a great pool, and were a short drive from restaurants, shopping, and grocery stores. Highly recommend!

A perfect home for families

This was my family's first time renting a home in Bonita Springs, Florida. The home was perfect and had all of the amenities that we needed for us and our little ones to be safe and comfortable. The rooms were perfect and the pool too. The location was ideal for beach access. We enjoyed the abundant sea life, warm still waters, and we eventually perfected paddle boarding! We also enjoyed seeing the gators in the channel. The owners of this property were a pleasure to plan with. I received a lovely thank you letter after our stay. I highly recommend this property for anyone wanting an exceptional vacation.

A Wonderful Place with lots of amenities!

Wonderful place! This was the second year in a row that our family stayed here. Spacious enough for multiple people yet comfortable for sit down dinners and family time together. Easy walk to the beach and a beautiful location for just a casual morning or evening stroll. Pool was the perfect temp and the enclosed lanai provided an extension to the outdoors. The upstairs balcony/deck had a nice BBQ grill and adequate spacing for sun bathing or entertaining. The house is nestled between Ft. Myers and Naples which makes travel suitable to either location. The home is well taken care of and would highly recommend to anyone.

WONDERFUL VACATION HOME

This home is just amazing. It's a great plae for a large family or several different families. We really enjoyed the outside lanai area and pool. There was great fishing off their dock. This was our first vacation in Bonita Beach, it was like being in Paradise. We loved the short walk to the beach and being able to walk to "Docs" for dinner. Also the sunsets were just beautiful. There are several great restaurants nearby. The owners are truly wonderful people, very friendly and accomodating. There were many interesting sights to see. (We especially loved your banana tree!!) Definitely gets five stars from our family.
