Cape Coral, Florida
******* Hurricane Ian Update - The house was undamaged during the hurricane and is completely fine. Only the wooden dock / boat lift were damaged. They are currently unusable and boat storage is not possible. However this only affects guests who plan on bringing their own boat or renting a boat multiple days and storing it overnight. Otherwise the house is exactly as advertised prior to the storm and available as it was. ********
Casa Del Rio is a riverfront, luxuriously appointed vacation home, that feels more like a tropical resort. The water views are stunning and unparalleled. It is situated on a huge lot overlooking the massive Caloosahatchee river and expansive bridge connecting Cape Coral to Ft Myers. It has 80 ft of seawall right on the river and its own private heated pool and dock.
It has been recently remodeled and boasts many upgraded amenities as well as water / pool views from almost every room. The back wall of the house is entirely composed of large sliding glass doors with access to the pool and can be opened bringing the outdoors inside. In addition, there is a large sun deck overlooking both the pool and dock, perfect for sunbathing or dining al fresco while watching the sunset light up the water.
The kitchen has Corian countertops, with all new stainless steel appliances, including a gourmet wall oven and cooktop. There is plenty of counter / bar space for buffet style meals and entertaining. In addition, there is a separate dining area overlooking the pool and river.
Right off the kitchen is pub style bar area also overlooking the pool and river which has bar furniture that can used indoors or out. There is even a wine fridge next to the bar where you can bring and store your own vintage or bubbly.
One of the bedrooms is a master suite with its own en suite bath. The large master bath is extremely luxurious with a 4 foot glassed in shower and elegant double vanity. The other two guest bedrooms are spacious and located conveniently adjacent to the guest bath.
The river and pool can be seen from all living areas of the house. The living room has comfy sofas, one of which pulls out for guests not wishing to sleep together. There are 3 Flat Screen TVs, cable, and wifi for indoor entertainment. You can watch the game or entertain in the bar area, while the kids watch movies in the living room, without being interrupted.
The patio area by the pool includes lounge chairs for relaxing as well as wicker chairs and a sitting area for congregating.
There is a large sundeck on the bank of the river with plenty of space for relaxing or entertaining. There is a Kitchen Aid 4 burner stainless steel built in BBQ and sink for some serious grilling while enjoying those amazing views.
The dock has a 12,000 pound lift and can easily store even a very large boat, if you choose to bring or rent one. It has direct river and gulf access within easy reach of local beaches and watering holes on Sanibel Island, Ft. Myers Beach, Pine Island, Captiva, Cabbage Key, Cayo Costa, etc.
Very nice with a beautiful pool.
Our reason for choosing this property were because of the large pool and being river front. Both were perfect. Our hesitation at first was we wished at least one bedroom would have had bunks. Three queens were not our preference traveling with kids but worked out ok. We would definitely stay here again.
It was realy nice stay.perfect view,big pool. Lots of restaurants open..good fishing..perfect grill. Neigberhood looks realy good after ian..they remaking beaches in a lot of places.(sanibel had it the worst). Thank you.it was great vacation.
We stayed for 5 weeks from Feb.13 to March 20 had beautiful sunshine everyday but one, wonderful big pool, nice big screened in patio and pool area, nice lounge chairs. Plenty of nice restraurants near by. Very relaxing vacation!!
Overall, we were happy with our stay and the house. We were there during an extremely hot week, so the air struggled to keep up. We ran out of toilet paper and paper towels, so keep that in mind. Pool needs some TLC, but it didn't stop our 8 years old from enjoying every moment in the water. Richard was awesome and we enjoyed chatting with him. My golden rule with VRBO - leave it better than you found it. We did.
We had a great experience and view of the river. The house very clean and in a great location close to the beach. Paul and Richard were great to work with and very flexible.
Enjoyed our stay. The outside pool area was wonderful. Pool was deep, needed a little tlc. Home was comfy.
Great water front property with quick access to the Gulf. Having the lift to get our boat out of the water and cleaned up each evening was very helpful. Public boat ramp is very close to the house. We were able to basically live on the water the entire week, plenty of good restaurants out on the islands to visit for lunch, and plenty of great fishing in Pine Island Sound, Captiva Pass, and Redfish Pass to keep us entertained. Would definitely recommend this location and plan to rent it again ourselves if available.
Absolutely loved this home! Every detail was thought of. Kitchen has everything you need. The pool! Huge! Can't wait for our next stay.
Came down from Pennsylvania for a family vacation before having our 3rd child. Had a wonderful time the house was just what we were looking for. My husband and son spent hours fishing off the dock while my daughter and I spent hours by the pool. Everything is just a short drive away. The property manager was awesome, very personable. The house had everything you needed (and more!!) and was clean.
