🐾 Dog Friendly, Spacious Beach Retreat, only Steps to Sugary Sand, Conveniences and all the Fun!

The Anchor at Seaside Retreat, your unique place in paradise, is a beautifully renovated 2 bedroom, 1 bath, first floor apartment located mid island in a tranquil neighborhood. Two blocks to the beach with easy beach access points. Relax in comfort on the front porch sipping your favorite drink while the sunsets stream light through the palms. Hotel style linens and towels help you rest well for a full day of sun and fun!

This property is located mid-island with the beach access just steps across Estero Boulevard. The white sugar sand beaches are the cleanest on the island. A quiet relaxing location for that desired getaway, yet just a short walk along the beach is a kiosk for jet-ski rentals, parasailing rides, and even dolphin tours along a 7-mile stretch of white, sugary sand beach.

Super convenient to the supermarket and an upscale bistro on the bay. Trolley service along the boulevard is available to transport you to Times Square, with all of its restaurants, clubs, and night life.

The property has a fantastic lanai porch with ambient evening lighting that leads to the property entrance. The nicely furnished living area has comfy sofa, TV with Roku and YouTubeTV. Dining area finds a table seating 4, and a fully equipped kitchen. Everything is available that you would need to cook daily multi-course dinners, or simply make a pot of coffee in the morning.

There are two beautifully decorated bedrooms. The master bedroom has a queen size bed, closet, and plenty of dresser space. The second bedroom has twin beds that can be pushed together to create a King. The second bedroom has twin beds that can be pushed together to create a King.

The property has a common area with a washer and dryer and a propane grill. You'll also find parking space accommodating 2 vehicles.

There are many restaurants and shops a short drive north across the bridge towards south Fort Myers. The same is true if you drive south towards Bonita Beach. Water activities abound with fishing charters, scuba and snorkel adventures, jet ski rentals, para-sailing, etc. Fort Myers, Bonita Springs and Naples are all modern cities with plenty of shopping, dining and sight seeing to experience.

The South West International Airport in Fort Myers is close by for convenience as well.

The Anchor felt like a comfy, laid-back spot just minutes from the beach. I really enjoyed chilling on the porch and the relaxed vibe inside. It's an easy choice for a low-key beach escape.

This cozy first-floor apartment was the perfect retreat for our beach getaway. Just a short walk to the beach, it made enjoying the ocean breeze effortless. The front porch was a lovely spot to unwind, and the comfortable interior made us feel right at home. Its central location allowed us to easily explore local shops and dining options.

We stayed for 1 week and there was a cold snap for a few of the days. There was no furnace for heat and no storage in the bedrooms (dressers, hangers). The unit smells like smoke. Some of these things may/may not have been advertised but wanted to bring them to attention of future tenants. In this downstairs unit you can hear and smell everything from above unit. Maintenance was very quick to address several issues that we had.

Ian’s Aftermath

It was sad seeing how bad Hurricane Ian destroyed Ft Myers Beach but this property was a nice respite there. Clean and comfortable. It would have been nice to have some basics like coffee or condiments like other rentals. But this worked fine for what I needed.
