You will likely want to rent a boat for your stay as this home is at an ideal location to enjoy the nearby beaches. It is approx a 5-10 minute ride to the Okeechobee River which leads to the open waters of the Gulf of Mexico. You DO NOT have any bridges or locks to pass which makes it a very easy and enjoyable experience. Cape Coral is a boaters paradise and there are many beautiful beaches that can be accessed by boat such as Sanibel, Captiva of Fort Myers beach. While you are boating it is common to see dolphins swimming as you watch the beautiful sunset. It is truly breathtaking.
Some guests will choose to stay at the pool for much of their stay but if you do venture out there is a lot to do. The home is located less than 10 minutes from the yacht club (Cape Coral beach) and downtown Cape Coral. You will probably want to spend a couple days of your vacation going to Fort Myers beach or Sanibel lighthouse. Both are about a 40 minute drive and well worth it. There are also many golf courses in the area, tennis facilities, and numerous restaurants (the boathouse and rumrunners are right on the water and are my favorite spots).
Villa Jewel is my families second home and we take great pride in it. It is our home away form home and I hope it will be yours as well. We can’t wait for you to book your Cape Coral vacation at our small slice of paradise.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features 4 bathrooms and space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a private pool and a washing machine.
