I had a really disappointing experience with this Vrbo rental. When we arrived, the place was…read moreclearly not cleaned properly -- there was dog hair everywhere, on the floors, furniture, and even on the bedding. It made the whole space feel dirty and uncomfortable. On top of that, communication with the rental company was extremely frustrating. It was difficult to get responses, and when we did, they were slow and unhelpful. We reached out about the cleanliness issues and never received a proper resolution during our stay. Overall, this was not the experience we expected or paid for. I would not recommend this property unless significant improvements are made to both cleanliness and customer service.

We had a very unpleasant experience with this company…read more There were several issues and malfunctions in the house, and they didn't even bother to come and address them. On top of that, on Saturday morning we woke up to loud banging noises coming from the pool area. We looked outside and saw a crew of workers removing all the pool tiles. It's simply unbelievable. We were paying guests staying at the property, and they sent a construction crew to completely tear up the pool during our stay. I strongly recommend avoiding this company. Their service is completely unacceptable, and we felt misled as customers. The company never informed us that a work crew would be coming to remove all of the pool tiles and completely tear up the pool while we were staying at the property. We were in the middle of our vacation at the villa, and without any prior notice, we woke up to construction work taking place right outside. This was extremely disruptive and completely unacceptable. Had we known that major repairs were scheduled during our stay, we would never have booked this property. The lack of communication, the poor handling of maintenance issues, and the complete disregard for guests' experience made this a very disappointing stay.

The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is that the counter staff person didn't seem all that interested in greeting me and said barely four words to me.

The "Best" in Best Western Must Be a Joke…read more If you've ever wondered what it's like to check into a hotel that smells like a wet basement had a love child with a bottle of bleach, look no further than the Best Western Fort Myers Inn -- where comfort goes to die and "guest service" is just a rumor. We checked in after a 12-hour drive, dreaming of rest. Silly us! Rest is strictly forbidden here, especially on Sundays. If you value peace, privacy, or basic sanity, you'll love being forced to vacate your room mid-morning so housekeeping can "service" it -- whether you requested it or not. Apparently, your paid space is actually their space, and your plans mean nothing. Kids, homeschooling, fatigue... who cares? Let's talk atmosphere. The hotel smells unmistakably of black mold -- a sort of "Eau de Mildew" that greets you the moment you enter. The carpets? A masterpiece of filth. Take your shoes off for one minute and you'll find your feet magically transformed to charcoal. Who needs a spa treatment when the floor can exfoliate you for free? Now, the front desk staff... where do we begin? Imagine being helped by people who have the enthusiasm of DMV employees but without the knowledge, courtesy, or clue what their own policies are. Each question you ask is like a pop quiz they didn't study for. If intelligence were optional, they'd still be on a waiting list. To make it more exciting, they'll invent new "rules" just for you -- because consistency is overrated. Need to stay longer? Surprise! You'll be handed an undated piece of paper about "new policies" written on what looks like recycled printer paper, sprinkled with words like "Effective Immediately" and "Important Update." Totally official, right? And if you dare question them? Don't worry -- they'll handle it with the grace of a toddler denied candy. You'll be talked down to, pressured, and maybe even have the cops called if you use big scary words like "discrimination" or "policy clarification." In short, this place is a masterclass in how to lose loyal customers. Between the moldy air, filthy floors, clueless staff, and the bold new "We Can Kick You Out Anytime" policy, you'll leave refreshed -- by the realization that anywhere else on Earth would be better.

Our room was perfect for the next four nights, huge room and nice and clean.

What a gold mind you have in her. Our room was just a few doors down from the Maintenace room where Juan kept all of his supplies. The door was opened so I got the opportunity to meet and speak with him, just a kind hearted man, great smile. He does need a larger room :) Had a chance to speak with the Manager, Ja'meria Johnson, great patient lady. We got the pleasure of officially meeting Tina on our last day and what a wonderful down to earth lovely person. We had seen her as we came and went those few days and she was always so cheerful and smiling so it was a pleasure to get to have a conversation with her on our last day. We'd stay here again.

So sad for her that her company has to be a part of something so awful. Renter beware of the amount of electric that you use during your stay. I recommend turning the air way down while out on excursions to the beach, shopping, or when going out to dinner. Don't use the washer/dryer anymore than once and NEVER heat the pool even in the cooler months. Although renting a home my be cheaper in the beginning sometimes things are not as they appear. Be ready to have your security deposit taken with no actual proof of electric used from the electric company. Do yourself a favor read over all the small print before signing with any rental company in Cape Coral.

Addison Mizner is known for his Mediterranean and Spanish influenced architecture that uses stucco, coquina stone, terra cotta tiles, wood beam ceilings, fountains, towers, columns, wrought iron, and tropical landscaping. Most of the homes he designed were in Palm Beach County but he designed four homes in Naples of which two remain today and this home in Fort Myers, This Fort Myers one acre estate was built in 1924 for banker Fred Alderman, President of Fort Myers First National Bank in 1921. He would entertain illustrious Fort Myers winter residents Henry Ford, Harvey Firestone, and Thomas Edison. Many society events were held in the grand ballroom with its 14 foot high ceilings, elaborate mantel, and wood burning fireplace. On December 1, 1988 the house was added to the US National Register of Historic Places. More recently the grand home was used as an office for 30 years. Doreen Lehrer who was in the marines for 25 years fell in love with the house after seeing an internet posting from where she was stationed in North Korea. She purchased it sight unseen in 2016 and began the restoration. Lehrer added a kitchen and guest rooms which she rented out to guests. In 2021 the house went on the market for 1,499 million dollars. The new owners are still using it as an Airbnb for $400 a night plus cleaning and Airbnb fees. It can also be rented for weddings.

If I could write a 6-star review, this would be it…read more There are a lot of scams in South Florida with rental properties -- we were *almost* a victim of one and decided to step away. On a whim, we found Sea Star Property Management and they had a spectacular rental available for our stay in Cape Coral. All of our communication with Sea Star was via e-mail. We booked, paid our initial deposit, and balance prior to arrival all online. About a week before our trip, we received a confirmation e-mail with detailed directions to the home and instructions on how to open the lock box. When we arrived at the home, we found the home in pristine condition and exactly as pictured. There was a set of instructions on pool usage, and some other info about the home. Our rental property was everything you would want in a rental home -- very good appliances, some kitchen utensils, along with dishes and glasses. The home also included high speed internet and cable TV package from Comcast. We had a few questions about how the control panel for the pool worked and after we called Sea Star, the owner of Sea Star stopped by the next day to show us how it worked. It was nice that he was available and was very professional about everything. Our only wish was that the electric allowance that was given was a bit more than what they allowed us -- we totally understand that some renters could run the pool heater 24/7 and jack up the electric bill, but we felt that we were paying close to prime rental rates and we could have received a slightly larger electric allowance. All in though, we were very pleased with Sea Star Property and will be condsidering them for a longer rental next year! We can't wait.
