Five miles to Bonita Beach. This is the one.



There's no single feature that makes this Bonita Springs canal home special — it's the combination of all of them together. A two-level fully screened lanai with a heated pool, spiral staircase, outdoor TV, bar counter w/ stools, pub-height table, dining table, ceiling fans, and two water features. A separate downstairs suite with its own entrance, kitchenette, and bunk beds — completely independent from the upstairs living space. A canal out back where dolphins, manatees, and turtles have all been spotted. Two cruiser bikes. Beach gear.



Please note: the lower-level guest room is not accessible from the upstairs interior — it is only accessible from the exterior lower-level door or the lanai sliding doors. This layout is ideal for guests who want genuine separation between spaces.



THE UPSTAIRS SPACE:



The main level features an open, comfortable flow from the kitchen through the dining room and living area and out to the two-story lanai. The living room is anchored by a sectional sofa, a large Smart TV with Hulu Live, and large sliding glass doors opening directly onto the upper lanai balcony.



The kitchen is equipped with full-size appliances, a bistro table for 2, cookware, dinnerware, cutlery, and glasses — everything needed for easy family meals throughout the stay.



The dining room seats 6.



The split floor plan has bedrooms on opposite sides of the upstairs level. The master suite features a king bed, lanai access, a TV with Hulu Live via Apple TV, and an ensuite bathroom with a large walk-in shower and walk-in closet. The guest bedroom offers a queen bed, lanai access, and a TV with Hulu Live via Apple TV. The den provides a queen Murphy bed and a work desk — a flexible space for or a quiet work-from-home setup (note: the TV shown in photos is not functional).



The upstairs guest bathroom features a combination bathtub/shower.



A full-size washer and dryer are located on the 2nd floor balcony alongside the dining table and spiral staircase.



THE LOWER SUITE



The remodeled downstairs space offers genuine independence for a smaller group or couple — a guest room with a bunk bed (full and twin), a full bathroom with shower, and a kitchenette with refrigerator and microwave. A private exterior entrance and sliding doors to the lanai mean downstairs guests can come and go entirely without disturbing those upstairs.



THE OUTDOOR SPACE



The two-level fully screened lanai is the showpiece of this property. The upper balcony has a dining table overlooking the pool and canal below. Spiral down to the lower lanai and you'll find an outdoor sofa and lounge chairs, a TV with Hulu Live via Apple TV, a dining table, a pub-height table, a bar counter with stools, ceiling fans and the heated pool with two water features — all under a screened enclosure for bug-free enjoyment day and evening.



Behind the home, a small canal connects to the Imperial River — great for kayaking if you choose to rent one. Dolphins, manatees, and turtles have all been spotted here.



Lush privacy landscaping surrounds the pool and canal area. Pool heating runs November through April; not available May through October. Water temperatures vary based on weather conditions and cannot be guaranteed. Canal water levels and conditions are subject to tidal changes and cannot be controlled or guaranteed.

    One of the best family houses we have ever stayed. Large accommodations so all family members had their own areas. Outside areas with the pool, bar area and eating areas were spectacular. The inside was very nice, but the furniture could use some upgrading. We will be back to this great vacation spot.

    The house was very nice and comfortable for our family get together. Loved the multiple patio areas for sitting, eating, spending time. Enjoyed the pool and pool area. Very good for family time! There was a storm one evening and we lost power. Communication with the property owners was prompt and helpful. Will definitely book again when in the area!

    The house was comfortable and had everything we needed but it wasn’t quite as pristine as the pictures suggest. The pool is a lot more shaded during the day than the brightness of the picture would have you believe. The furniture is a little tired but and please, straighten up the pantry so it can actually be used, no place to really put the groceries we bought so we moved things around.

    Location location location! The house is situated on a quiet street but just a bike ride away from shops, parks and downtown. The house itself was set up nicely for families. Our boys (7,8) enjoyed the little downstairs ‘apartment’. Our 5yo was too scared to sleep down there which was expected. There’s plenty of patio space to enjoy the outdoors. Kitchen was equipped enough for us. Grocery stores are right around the corner, just a convenient location to everything. The house comes with two adult cruiser bikes so we packed our kids three bikes. We took a bike ride almost every day. The kids also roller skated on the walking paths beside the roads. Our vacation was really enjoyable and the area is beautiful. We have elderly family in Naples so we try to visit once a year or every other year.

    We were looking for a place that all of the family could come and stay in the Fort Myers area. We found a great place that was just awesome.The place we stayed in was clean and we loved it! It was comfortable both inside and out. Great places to sit outside next to the pool all screened in with no bugs.We had plenty of space for eight of us. Look forward to returning again soon. It was close to great beaches, food and fishing.____

    We had a wonderful stay! The house is big, comfortable, and perfect for a family getaway. The whole family enjoyed the patio and pool area — especially the outdoor TV, bar, and BBQ setup. The bathrooms were very clean, and the bed linens were soft and cozy. The air conditioning worked great, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The refrigerator was clean and spacious, although the ice maker didn’t work.The beach gear could use an update — the chairs were old and small, and the beach towels were a bit worn. We appreciated being given a new umbrella, but the cooler didn’t have handles, which made it hard to carry — and it’s definitely needed for beach days.Overall, a great place to stay and relax with the family!

    Came down to visit family from New Jersey and was not disappointed at all. The property was perfect with plenty of room for 10 people to convene comfortably. I would definitely recommend to stay here. The location was also wonderful as it was in close proximity to my son’s home and to shops and restaurants within 10 to 20 minutes away.

    We absolutely loved staying here! The place was exactly as described and had everything we could possibly need while there. The pool was perfect and we really enjoyed eating outdoors and enjoying the Florida weather. The location is also perfect with so many places to go out and eat and drink. The downtown area is super nice with a cute little coffee shop as well as fun venues with live music. The beach was a quick drive and absolutely gorgeous. We will definitely come back again next time we're vacationing in Florida!

    The property has great potential just needs a few tweaks to be great. The inside of the house was very clean but is in need of updates. Sofa, chairs and beds are way past their prime. Baths are very nice. Kitchen is nice and well stocked with essentials. Downstairs kitchen and living area were also clean but smelled very musty. The outside patio area was in desperate need of deep cleaning. As with upstairs the furniture needs a refresh. Bar with tv was great to have. Pool was clean.

    This house was perfect for our family. The house is very spacious, the bedrooms are large, the kitchen has every you need. The pool kept us well entertained. The good selection of sand toys was a bonus for our grandchildren. We were also entertained watching curious turtles coming around the small 'dock'. We will definitely try to stay here on our next trip to Bonita.

    Wonderful property for the 9 of us and plenty of room for extended family to come and visit. The teenagers loved the separate living space in the basement. The pool was heated to a perfect temperature and the outdoor living space was used for most meals. There was a maintenance issue that was handled in a timely manner. The one negative issue would have to be the handicap shower/bath in the one bathroom. It was a bit hard to navigate but we made it work. A few more coffee cups would also have been appreciated. Overall we would give this home a 10/10 and would definitely rent again.
