Perfect location!

Our apartment was beautiful, functional and in the perfect location to walk to several different shops and restaurants in a small area. I enjoyed being able to walk to the Farmers Market a few streets over as well as being close to the parkway to travel to other parts of Cape Coral and Fort Myers. The beaches/islands were not far away and easy to get to from our little ‘home away from home’! My girls enjoyed the games provided and found the decorations (starfish and turtles) as fun things to discover throughout the apartment. The bed was comfortable and so was the sofa. Only thing we found ourselves in need of in the kitchen was a medium or large bowl, otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed staying at Starfish Stays! Thank you to Scot and Paula for their thoughtful attention to detail!

Foremost, we would return and I recommend this property. Cute little place, very convenient to everything in the area. Ease of communication and access was a plus. Street noise was a little loud but that is to be expected since it is close to everything in the area and we were there on the weekend of the art festival. Cleaning could be better, we found wadded tissues and a bunch of hair in one of the bathroom drawers and the bathroom floor had a lot of hair in the corners. Bed was comfy, nicely decorated and enough kitchen stuff provided to cook a couple of meals. Never did fin the hot tub though.

I started smiling once I entered the "unit". Nice furniture, windows with both blinds and draperies, nice kitchen with just about everything a person would need to cook with and eat on. Cleanliness was amazing (5). Although I knew the floor was clean, it looked dirty as did the moldings, etc. It was such a sad contrast to everything else that was sparkling and bright. I will go back.

Great property, great location,! For 6months I have traveled back and forth to the SW Florida area for work. I have stayed in 3 of the four units on this property and have yet to be disappointed! They are perfectly priced and absolutely accommodating! You won’t find a better value for your money. The local restaurants and entertainment with in walking distance make the stay even better!

Convenient Location

It was a great location, we were able to walk to many local restaurants and enjoyed them very much. The washer/dryer is top of the line. The property checked the boxes for our stay. The courtyard is very cool. Although it was to warm to light the fireplace. The property was very clean upon our arrival.

Cape Coral Bungalow

We very much enjoyed our stay at Starfish Stays. Very cozy and well equipped with kitchen necessities if cooking each night. Loved eating suppers each night on our private screened in porch. Courtyard was a great way to relax and enjoy the great evening breeze each afternoon. The unit is very well kept and clean. This was our number one choice as this property allows pups to stay! Our pup enjoyed her time here sunning in the courtyard and relaxing in the screened porch. There are entertainment venues down the street, but all was usually quiet around 10 PM each night. Great stay!

Cute place

A very nice on bedroom, everything looks brand new and the theme is consistent throughout. Fish on the walls, ocean themed countertops, and soft blue colors really makes the name little starfish ring true. The courtyard is awesome and my only advice would be to eventually get a tarp or something because it rains so often in southwest florida. Bed was super comfy! 10/10 would stay again
