Waterfront Villa Cortona, Pool/Spa, Games, Pool Table, 4 Bedroom, Sleeps 8

My husband and I stayed for 3 weeks. It was such a nice, relaxing stay. The hot tub really came in handy with the cold days. I would have to say the best part of the trip was the host. Jana is a people pleaser and made sure we had everything we needed AND MORE to make this trip memorable. I don’t want to make this place sound too good because we want to come back and it be available! If you are like me and read the reviews before booking then book it. You won’t be disappointed.

Host was fantastic! Pool and hot tub worked well. Family enjoyed them. Nice updated kitchen. Good water. Master shower was great! Everything was as listed. Quiet neighborhood. Every store you need within 15 minutes. Would stay again.

We stayed for a week and it was a very peaceful stay. The home is exactly as described, it comes with everything you need for an amazing stay. Jana was very informative and answered any questions we had. The owner also offers some items ( heated pool/jacuzzi, gas for grill) for free that other owners usually like to charge for which was a pleasant surprise. If you like to fish, there is some great fishing in the back.

We had an excellent 42 day stay at the Waterfront Villa.We travel to the Fort Myers/Cape Coral area every January-February. This was our first stay in this home. We were 100% satisfied with the home and Jana, our wonderful host. We could not be more pleased.Check in communications were excellent. Jana met us at the home and gave an overview of the home and instructions on the pool/spa. The home was clean and well stocked when. Our kids spent 2 weeks with us in the home. The home handled all six of us very well. There was plenty of space for everyone. The pool and spa were great. There home is in a very nice neighborhood in the Burnt Store area. There are vacant lots on both sides which provided a little extra privacy. The pool overlooks a large portion or the canal system and the pier on the canal was great for morning coffee and quiet sunsets. We enjoyed a lot of time in the pool and on the pier. There was also a grill which was used several nights. We travel with a dog. The neighborhood was great for long walks with little or no traffic. There were a lot of walkers in the neighborhood. We felt very safe here. There were four kayaks and two bikes in the garage which we did not have time to use. The garage was a great place to store our motorcycle and motorcycle trailer during our stay. The location provides easy access to the Cape Coral area and places to the north. Plenty of stores for food and supplies within a few miles.

We stayed for a week in December and everything on the trip checked all of our boxes for a great family vacation.

Great property, just as listed, pool was awesome, dock was great for fishing, pool table was really nice , just all around good listing , family gave it total thumbs up for our summer vacation

very nice wonderful pool

Pros 1. Large SUV fit inside garage 2. Master walk in shower delightful 3. Game room great but dartboard needs replaced 4. Relaxing backyard with the exception of construction -only saw 2 neighbors on canal side in 10 days 5. Seating at dock for 4 & firepit 6. Del Prado WalMart delivers 7. Lots of area wildlife visit dock-dolphins, stiing ray, sharks, & alligators just to name a few. 8. Kitchen well-stocked but needs baking pans 9. Kayak availability was nice, but prior guests have mistreated & broken seats. Cons 1. Roof covered in tarps & sandbags from storm 9 months ago-not expecting that 2. Front landscaping desperately needs attention- very overgrown 3. All mattresses need replaced- master was the worst- almost unbearable-hard, lumpy, & slanted toward head of bed 4. Previous guests left extra blankets filthy. 5. Construction ALL around-unexpected- Google maps does not show all the homes that have been built. It's not a secluded home due to construction & workers often played loud music. 6. Dock pylons on right side were lifted during storm last year. It is scary looking, but we had no problem using it. 7. Stools at bar & tall table were so wobbly we didn't use them. 8. Patio needs to be powerwashed 9. Lounge chair cushions dirty 10. Garage very cluttered-not neat as in pictures 11. Children's play area no longer there, but we didn't need it. The owner needs to update pictures & description so renters have an accurate idea of what to expect. Overall, we enjoyed.

My family and I (4 adults and 3 kids) vacation here in December. The house is absolutely beautiful and very private. My boys enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub (I couldn’t keep the youngest out of it) and the older boys spent lots of time on the dock fishing. We all really enjoyed the paddle boards and taking them down the canal. The pool table and dart board were a huge hit with my family. We even got a family competition going with a trophy for the winner. We truly had a great time. It has been a long year for all of us and it was so nice to be able to kick back and relax. There was so much to keep us occupied that we didn’t really even have to leave the house that much. Watching the sun rise and set over the canal was amazing. The walk in double shower in the master is to die for (I’ve already told my husband we should remodel our bathroom like this). The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of room for everyone. We rent a home every year to vacation and this was definitely one of the best rentals we have stayed at. Jana was very kind and helpful and quick to respond when I had a question. This is definitely a 5 star rental in a quite and relaxing area and I would definitely vacation here again.

We rented this property for the beautiful view, remote location, and amazing home. 3 days into our trip hurricane Ian ripped through SW Florida. We were left without electrical plumbing. We were so lucky to be in that house. With nothing to do and nowhere to go. We spent the remainder of our days kayaking, fishing, and hanging out by the dock. We occupied our nights by playing cards and board games(which this house is fully stocked with) by candle light. Once the lanai, shingles and dock are repaired I recommend this house for any family or friends vacation.
