About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

🐾 Pet Friendly, Heated Pool, Gorgeous Renovation, Walk to the sugar sand of FMB!

The Fishbowl Manor is a beautifully renovated 5 bedroom, 3 bathroom complex perfect for extended family or multiple families traveling together. The Manor consists of 2 apartments in the same building sleeping a total of 16 people!

The Upper apartment is a beautifully renovated 3 bedroom (1 king, 1 queen and 2 bunk beds) sleeping 8 people in beds and has a sofa sleeper in the living room to sleep two more. It has 2 bathrooms and is located on the 2nd floor.

The Lower apartment has 2 bedrooms (1 queen, 2 twin beds) sleeping 4 in beds and has a sofa sleeper in the living room. It has 1 bathroom and is located on the 1st floor.

The Manor is perfect for family and friends traveling together but wanting their own private space to relax. Booking both apartments together at one time will save you money over booking each independently, and you'll have the certainty of all units being reserved at one time.

Located in the serene Mid-Island area of Fort Myers Beach and nestled in a tranquil neighborhood just a short walk between two beach access points, this peaceful retreat offers the perfect blend of relaxation and convenience. A nearby trolley stop provides easy access to the lively downtown area, home to the iconic Times Square, local restaurants, shops, and vibrant entertainment.

When booking The Manor, guests enjoy a private heated pool and other amenities including a grill, washer and dryer. We also provide hotel-quality linens—professionally laundered for every stay—as well as beach essentials like towels, chairs, an umbrella, and a beach cart. Lastly, a spacious lanai offers a peaceful place to unwind.

Nearby, there are many water activities including fishing charters and snorkeling to parasailing and jet ski rentals. Plus, the close cities of Fort Myers, Bonita Springs, and Naples offer a wealth of shopping, dining, and sightseeing opportunities, and the Southwest Florida International Airport in Fort Myers is just a short drive away making for easy access to the island.

Come visit and make The Fishbowl Manor your next perfect beach getaway!

Excellent beach vacation

Great experience with Coastal Breeze Vacation Rentals during our stay in Fort Myers Beach. Starting with the staff itself, they were great every time we needed something or had any questions. Their responses were fast and efficient. Moving on to their property “The Fishbowl”, it was a perfect spot. Location is unbeatable just across the street from beautiful and peaceful beach. The property is not lacking any space for big groups, and has everything you Wed to enjoy your beach vacation. Publix is less than 1/2 mile for getting groceries as well.Overall it was awesome. Thank you!

Family Vacation 2025

When we first entered the home, it was very pretty, well furnished, beachy, but it was a lot smaller than the pictures showed. The trash cans were full and the flys were bad but as soon as I spoke to maintenence they dropped off two new, unused trash cans. Be aware that this home in a two unit home with a separate lock box for each unit. The first unit with two bedrooms on the bottom and the second unit has 3 bedrooms on the top. With that being said, when we showed up to check-in the key for the upstairs was not there. The cleaning ladies showed up a half hour after we arrived and they had the key. They were unaware that the home was key was in the

Wonderful Home Away From Home

This house was amazing. It had everything we needed for a week’s stay with our family. House was beautiful, pool was very clean, and just a small walk across the street to the beach! Communication with the rental company was very prompt and friendly. I would 💯 recommend this house to any family.

Multi family vacation

It was good, I would have preferred that the two units connected inside along with outside. Also the lower level bathtub did not drain very well and we could see hair in the drain causing the clogging. The unit as a whole could use more plastic drink wear for outside use.

Exceeded our expectations

Our multi-generation family stayed for the week and this house has everything you would ever need. The beach is maybe a 3-4 min walk across the street, entering at public access 15. Neighborhood beach goers mainly. The house was laid out nicely w a screened porch out front which was well used. Quiet mornings w coffee and sunset sky’s at night. Linens were plentiful. Washer/dryer upstairs and down, which was super convenient. Kitchens were well stocked. Property provided a beach wagon which we really appreciated since we traveled w 6 grandchildren. The only inconvenient issue is the refrigerator door swings the wrong way in the upstairs kitchen. It made it very challenging to access. I highly recommend this property, we would stay again for sure. The pool was a nice treat and was enjoyed by all as well

Family Easter at FMB

Our family of 11 (6 adults & 5 kids) very much enjoyed our time at The Fish Bowl at Fort Meyers Beach mid island. Property wise there were a few things that required attention from the owners when we arrived but every issue was immediately addressed & resolved. Communication is the key!! Location to the beach was just a quick walk (less than 5minutes) so while at the beach if someone needed to go back to the house for something it didn’t take long at all. The kitchen is extremely well stocked with any utensils necessary for preparation meals. And there are 2-7/11 C-stores plus a Publix grocery store just a few minutes away. The heated pool was nice to have at the end of a hot afternoon on the beach! Very quiet neighborhood too! Mid Estero island is perfect for families. We would recommend the Fish Bowl!

Amazing house close to the beach

The fishbowl was an amazing house for our large crew! We had 7 adults and 7 kids total. We rented the entire house, so it was perfect for us! The heated pool was a great added bonus when we were too burnt from the sun and wanted to relax! The beach is literally across the street! You cant get anymore convenient than that, unless you want to pay big bucks! Anytime I needed to ask questions the manager answered immediately! All around perfect getaway/experience for our family! And can the name get any better?!?!

Listing was not accurate

There was a room that was listed as having a queen bed and 2 twin beds in the same bedroom. This was not true. We moved 2 twin mattresses to accommodate the 2 small children we had planned to stay in this room with their parents. Coastal Breeze charged us 125.00 for solving this problem ourselves. Also there were no sheets for one of the pull out sofas. We did not expect to find inaccurate info in a VRBO listing.

Nice home

We enjoyed the property. Lots of space. It was clean. Beach is a short walk. My only disappointment was that there’s never any sun at the pool. Its basically shaded all day. So, we just spent more time at the beach! Just would’ve used the pool more had there been sun. Just so other potential renters are aware.

Wonderful home!!!

This two apartment house was great! We had two families,both with children ranging ages from 4-11. The place was clean and we'll equipped with your essential items( pots,pans,utensils,coffee maker) they provided a small start off pack of dish detergent, laundry detergent, paper towel and dish washer detergent. Which was great. There is about a short five minute walk to the beach which is awesome. They provide beach chairs,umbrellas, boogie boards and sand toys to use along with a wagon to take to the beach if needed.... The pool was great. There is a shopping area right down the road. About a 5-10 min drive depending on the traffic. Overall it was a wonderful area and a great time!!
