VRCC Villa The Beau, direct access to open water.

Overall, a great house and very comfortable. Had a few hiccups initially, however. The hot tub was problematic the first night, couldn't get the stove to work the first morning, skimpy on basic household supplies, etc.

Amazing property, Spotlessly clean and in a great area. Everything worked great and we will definitely stay again!

Beautiful house. Very spacious. My family was very happy using the pool and jacuzzi.

THE HOME:The home, pool, and view down the canal from the rear of the house/pool are fantastic. The street the home is on is a mix of newly-built / newly-remodeled homes like this one as well as original single-level homes. Large driveway to park vehicles on as well as a 3-car garage that is empty to also park vehicles in.THE POOL:The abundance of sunbathing chairs and beach towels for the pool area were very much appreciated. We spent much of our week poolside and laying in the sun. The design of the lanai and shade provided by the overhang of the upper balcony allows you to sit outside without being directly in the sun.THE LOCATION:Hurricane Ian Impact (from 3 years ago at time of this review) is still apparent.What I didn't realize is this home was impacted by Hurricane Ian and only discovered this after looking up online photos after realizing the Cape Coral Yacht Club (previously within view of the home and captured in background photos on VRBO) is no longer there.The Yacht Club area is fenced off, so once construction starts on building the new club, I would expect noise to come from this. As of June 2025, no construction had started and it is just a vacant parking lot with a lot of empty boat slips. You are not allowed to fish off of the pier and the area generally looks sad. Part of the reason for choosing this location was proximity to the beach club, though I didn't think to confirm if it was still there since the VRBO photos still showed it.

Must stay property!!

The house was amazing. We had a wonderful time. Just a few things to mention. The beds were not very comfortable. We did not get much sleep due to the old mattress. There were no towels in one bathroom and no top sheets. We struggled with the pool controls as we never met with the owner to give us any instructions. Be aware that there were very little amenities to get us started, so make sure you purchase these when you go shopping. The house was very clean, the view was beautiful, the pool was fun. We would go back if the mattresses were replaced.

This is a beautiful property and we really enjoyed our stay there. Check in process was a breeze. Property management was very responsive. Some of the items in the home no longer work. The water feature for the pool, a fan, and the speakers outside had to be disconnected. So that was a little bit of a disappointment. We rented the boat and had major boat issues. Only got to use it for a couple hours out of four days total but the boat rental company completely refunded our money. Other than that, it was great! Has a gorgeous view and it’s nice that it’s so close to the boat house at the end of the channel. This house is definitely one of a kind!

Great home and location. Exactly as represented. Did have a couple of small issues. In a couple of the showers we found hair in the drain and they had the pool side speakers disconnected and we were told this was due to a history of loud music late into the night. This did bother me because we understood the music was not to be played to loud and done by 10 pm. Seems VRBO did not trust me to carry out their instructions.

The pictures say it all. I highly recommend renting a boat- a great way to visit beaches, otherwise you’re driving to all of them. The manmade beach near the yacht club is not the place to go unless you like to swim in river water. As others mentioned, the house isn’t fully equipped with extras as some rental houses are, but you get by. Plus, yes, as each of us stay there, each leave a little extra. There’s three bedrooms on the main floor and one upstairs. The mattresses and sheets aren’t the best, lots of pilling and some stains. The pillows are all cheap foam. The pool is amazing. The hot tub never got hot enough to be considered a hot tub, but given it was 85 outside, it wasn’t a huge deal. Each bedroom has one bed, which is fine, but in our case with children, it would have been nice if one room had twin beds. We bought a blow up bed for our youngest (11) to sleep on. The garage (beautiful as well) smells like gas, but turned out it was the garbage cans. I say this because I have to imagine we weren’t the first to call the property manager about it. Over the phone they told us to roll out the trash cans, but they did come check for us. There’s plenty of beach towels, you May need to search for them. There’s no real consistency as to where towels and linens are placed by the cleaning crew. Bath towels, however, don’t expect many of them. Each bathroom had one bath towel to use, except the two master baths each had two bath towels. The house has smart TVs (but when I asked about it before I arrived, they said they didn’t so we brought a Roku. ) There’s a Nespresso machine and a regular coffee pot. We bought storage containers for the kitchen since the house had none. There’s not much in terms of serving platters either if you’re looking to entertain. If you have small children, be aware that the hot water is really hot! We all didn’t mind it, but a child could scald themselves- especially in the kitchen since the hot and cold is reversed. There’s 3 car garage- 2 spaces are available to use, but only 1 garage opener. 3rd stall has floats, 2 beach chairs, few body boards and pool basketball game. No beach toys if you need them. Dollar tree is close by & you can pick up a good bit there. (Dish soap, body soap, kids stuff, detergent, cleaners, etc. there are Some name brand items. I ordered food delivery from Publix to be delivered 5-6pm on arrival day. We usually rent beachfront homes, but we were very happy with this choice & would rent again.

Property was better than the photos. The home was beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Our family of six enjoyed every minute of our stay. We rented the boat for the week that you could add to your rental which was great. We enjoyed boating every morning and came back and enjoyed the pool and outdoor kitchen in the afternoon and evening. We were a few minutes away from a small beach and Boathouse bar and restaurant which was fun. We would definitely consider coming back.
