Wonderful Family Vacation Spot!

The home was just as pictured. The water view was awesome and we used the pool every day! The home was fully stocked with all the kitchen essentials and we enjoyed the outdoor grill as well. Mary, the property manager, was very responsive and helpful! My family of seven lived our trip!!

Perfect family vacay!

The views were perfect. Restaraunts, beaches, putt putt, and escape rooms are all close by! Perfect kitchen for cooking. This house has everything you need already there. We packed and probably could have left half of it at home. Pool toys, floats, games, and everything needed for the kids. We absolutely loved our vacation and our pup did too!!! 10 out of 10 recommend! Mary was so friendly and quick to respond.

The best views!

This is our second stay, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. The home is clean, equipped with everything you need, and has the best views! Our son caught several fish each day from the dock as well. Communication with Mary couldn’t have been better. A storm came through and tore the screen on the lanai, and she had it fixed the next morning. We will definitely be back!

What can I say about this home, location, and the owners?

Our week at Orchid Oasis, celebrating our 20th anniversary, was truly magical. The home is spacious and beautifully decorated, with fantastic views. We enjoyed our coffee on the deck every morning, and we rarely cooked, as we took the opportunity to savor the local restaurants, all conveniently located near the home. The owners are incredibly responsive and kind. The house is equipped with numerous games and TVs for those rainy evenings, and every detail was thoughtfully provided for our convenience. We especially loved seeing the Burrowing Owls in the community—a true highlight of our stay! We can't wait to visit again soon.

Felt just like home!

The most wonderful VRBO we've ever stayed at! Not only does it look exactly like the listing, but it was actually so much more. The garage is filled with everything you could possibly need for the perfect vacation- 4 kayaks, 6 or more bikes or various sizes, pool floats, fishing gear, beach gear, cooler, and more! The kitchen had a cabinet filled with spices and cooking/baking basics. There were plastic bags for food storage, parchment paper, foil, etc. Extra sunscreen and lotion. Warm, cozy blankets to snuggle up on the couch. Cabinets full of games, puzzles, playing cards and movies. I truly can't imagine a thing that wasn't provided, and it made it feel just like home away from home. We stayed 2 weeks and didn't have a single problem with anything in the home. The location can't be beat, with the most amazing sunrises from the dock. We saw dolphins swimming in the canal, caught many fish and crabs, and docked a rented boat which was so easy to get out onto the river. I can't recommend this home enough!!!

wunderschöne Sonnenaufgänge in Cape Coral

Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt sehr genossen. Das Haus ist hervorragend ausgestattet und der Blick von der Terrasse auf den breiten Kanal ist wunderschön. Alles im Haus funktioniert super, es fehlt an nichts. Lieben Dank noch einmal an Mary, die uns dieses tolle Haus zur Verfügung gestellt hat. Wir kommen bestimmt wieder.
