Great house with a few areas for improvement
We arrived after a long drive to a very cold pool and spa. We messaged the agent who said there had been cold weather and previous renters did not put cover on pool and it would take about two days to heat up again. This was very upsetting for young kids to hear. I feel like there should be pool maintenance suggestions in info book for renters. Many people renting do not have pools or ones with electric heat pumps and do not understand how long they take to heat.
The house is large, clean, well maintained. We appreciated having essentials like laundry soap, cooking spices, dish soap etc. there were plenty of dishes, towels, pool noodles, beach toys, beach chairs, etc. only thing we missed was a pizza cutter.
Our other suggestion was to give more info on getting sound by pool speakers. They were hooked to a system that required an app and we couldn’t figure out. Would have been nice to have a simple blue tooth hook up. The main living room is also very large but with small tv. It was hard to hear tv from couch. We didn’t watch much tv so it wasn’t a problem.
The kayaks were a great resource to have . We loved taking them out. The neighborhood was safe and had nice people. The house is somewhat close to a busy road but you can’t really hear road noise and looking out onto the canal is great.
Important to note that as of Jan 2023 , Cape Coral beach at yacht club is closed due to hurricane damage. Ft Meyers beach is 50 minutes and beach is open but almost all hotels, restaurants, bars are demolished on Ft zmeyers Beach. Most Cape Coral activities are 25 minutes drive. Sanibel is one hour away but still closed to tourists. Publix is 2 minute drive. Matcha and Pine Islands are both mostly closed as well.
We found a lot of great things to do but didn’t realize how much we’d be driving . In general, this is a great house with fun for all ages.
