Gorgeous Penthouse Condo! Stunning Gulf & Bay Views! Heated Pool, Tennis, Available Boat Dockage!
The VIBE is back on Fort Myers Beach!
The beautiful Gulf Coast beaches are open, and Boardwalk Caper has re-opened while they complete their finishing touches. This may include some work around the condo towers and common areas of the property to include the common area landscaping and elevator lobbies. The work may also involve some workers, vehicles, materials during the day at times. There are 2 elevators and one of them will be operable at a time as the 2nd one will have work being done on it. The new pool, patio and grill area area, fitness center, community room and the beautiful new waterfront boardwalk are completed and ready for your enjoyment. The tennis & pickleball courts are still under construction.
While Fort Myers Beach continues to rebuild from the impacts of Hurricane Ian and though our island paradise may look a bit different than it once did, the sun continues to shine each day and brings with it spectacular sunsets to savor and new memories to be made. Ongoing renovations are taking place throughout Fort Myers Beach and many local shops and restaurants continue to reopen and welcome your support with a visit to Fort Myers Beach and Boardwalk Caper in 2025 and beyond! Please visit https://www.fortmyersbeach.org/whos-open-for-business for up-to-date beach business openings.

Great location and relaxed atmosphere
We stayed for a month in January. The condo has a beautiful view and the pool facilities are really nice. It was a great location if you want to be close to the beach, yet avoid all the traffic. We rented a car and drove to the beach a few times per week. Park at Bowditch Park which is much better
than the crowded beach parking lots. Parking is limited but we always were able to find a spot. Bowditch park was our beach spot - 5 minutes drive from the condo. The condo was within 10 minutes drive to grocery stores and Walmart. Everything is convenient. Be sure to visit Sanibel! We want to go back next winter- great weather as well
