Everything You Could Possibly Need!
Everything we could possibly need was there! The kitchen had everything we could think of for cooking. More than enough towels, beach towels, bedding/blankets, pool floats, I was completely amazed at the attention to detail by Kelly and Robert. We spent most of our time outdoors - the TV outside was a special treat for March Madness Basketball games and the pool was the perfect spot for most of our days. We have 2 small dogs and the outdoor area was perfect for them as well. The ceiling fan and lights under the covered part made evening meal time a joy.The street isn't that busy and we loved the neighborhood. Taking a walk in the morning was even easier due to the sidewalks. The location was great for getting to the places we like to shop and dine out.We had such an incredible time that we already booked again!

Christmas on the water
We stayed with family for Christmas at this beautiful house with great views. The pool was nice with a little waterfall. They have everything you need - I brought cupcake pans & crock pot but they had both there! No stone left unturned with this house. Close to so much, and we took advantage of that!The beds were comfortable, bathrooms beautiful, open floor was perfect to talk while cooking. The lanai is big and sitting around the table playing games was so beautiful with the water right there.There were bikes to take rides. The owners were kind and ready to answer any questions. We will for sure be staying there again!

Second visit to Villa Palm Tree
This was our second time in three years to stay at the Villa Palm Tree. Kelly and Robert have made some beautiful renovations to their home. They always take care to make sure that you have everything you need. Kelly leaves a detailed list of all places in Cape Coral and Fort Meyers. We love going to the beach for a few hours and coming home to a private pool. Riding the bikes to the Boathouse for mimosas and breakfast was a favorite of ours. We rented a boat from the naughty hooker (Charles) and it was so much fun. He is a great guy. If you’re looking for a vacation in south Florida , then this home has everything. Ps. We usually go to Estero Beach, but this year they’re were having issues with red tides, so we drove to Bonita Beach. It is a beautiful beach.

We normally travel with a few essential items, which are usually not available at a rental . However, Kelly’s house had everything you could possible need during your stay. Well equipped kitchen, extra towels , pool towels, detergent , Christmas tree , bikes - you name it. The pool and deck is very nice and equipped with nice outdoor lighting . We truly enjoyed our stay. The bathrooms were newly renovated- overall a very nice and clean place . We highly recommend it.

Best.Vacation.Ever.
Our kids loved the swimming and fishing. From sunrise to after sunset our boys were outside fishing and playing in the pool. Our teen/preteen daughters too! We’ve stayed in condos on Sanibel for years but this year we wanted to try something different and the canal/pool was a winner. The home was well stocked and we were grateful to have many products for our use. The master bath remodel wasn’t completed when we arrived but the owner worked out a concession with us and we got by with one bathroom for the week. It will look amazing when it’s done. Overall it was an amazing vacation and we were happy with the beautiful home

Beautiful & comfy home great location pet friendly
Property owner is nice. Home is beautiful and spacious. I give five stars for everything but cleaning. A little too many dishes and no cabinet to store dry goods. We had to clean several things. Although I gave cleanliness a 4, I definitely recommend staying here. The cleaning is an easy simple fix that shouldn't over shadow the wonderfulness of the place. Owner provides a lot of amenities for renter use, which is awesome(not garage though). Owner was very nice and attentive. The lanai is warm and inviting. Plenty of room in the beautiful home to create wonderful memories. We even had a dolphin in the canal several nights. It was beautiful to listen to it chirp. Very nice location in reference to businesses and still being on the water. I love we could take our poodles with us!! We would stay there again!!

Family vacation
Our family had a wonderful time! This place has everything you could possibly think of and I appreciated how clean and inviting this home was. This is truly a home away from home. We stayed for an entire week. We were able to do bike rides, swim in the pool each day, and fish off the dock. We have a 7 month old and it was so nice to have a crib, stroller, and highchair available on site so that we didn’t have to waste the space packing our own. We chose to rent a pontoon for the week we were there and had a blast finding our own little places to explore. We look forward to coming back again next year!

Cozy getaway on the canal
My husband and I enjoyed our stay here a lot! It had plenty of space and the outdoor area was amazing! We swam every day and visited several local beaches and restaurants in the area. With the pier we were able to fish, and the owner even had extra poles for those that don't like to bring there own. This place has everything you can think of to need and made our trip a luxury. We were able to bring our dogs so they had a relaxing vacation as well. Lovely owners and kept in touch anytime we contacted prior to our stay. Would stay here again.

We had a relaxing time at this quiet Cape Coral house! Owners thought of all the details as the house was well-stocked with everything one would need. We had a little glitch with the pool heater not working, but it was fixed. Kelly was great to work with. We loved riding the bikes on the bike paths. This house was close to lots of shopping and restaurants. 20 minutes from FMB.

Heaven on earth.
The entire process of booking and vacationing in this amazing home makes me want to never stay anywhere else but here. Exactly as advertised and you can not beat the price. From the thoughtful home owner who let me rant and ask a ton of questions to just how well stocked the home was to fit your every need. From kitchen appliances to towels to dog bowls. Second to none. I had actually had a freak accident and broke the crock pot lid by accident and was going to replace it myself and she took care of it and had a new one delivered for us the next day! You couldn’t ask for anyone more perfect than these owners. It really makes it all worth it and made the entire trip so easy to not have to worry about minor stuff. The fact that we were able to bring our chocoate lab Emma made this vacation the best! She loved every second of it. The home itself is just perfect it’s so homey and cozy. The pool and the lanai were absolutely gorgeous. We barely left the house besides to food shop it was so perfect. Will definitely be staying here again. Thank you so much for your hospitality! I also hope and pray that everyone and their homes were able to stay safe and protected from hurricane ian!
