Great stay! Love FMB
We had a great stay. Clean condo. Great space. Had to message where beach access was but they responded within minutes! Only complaint was we wished the TVs were smart TV devices so we could sign in or cast a movie at night as we were winding down. FMB and the area around it are my absolute favorite. They’re still rebuilding but the people are so nice and accommodating. Many restaurants are open with great food and more options coming back soon! I can’t wait to revisit!

Fort Myers condo
This was a very nice condo across the road from the beach. We loved the close access and beautiful beach. The only downside was bikes and fishing poles were pictured and not available. The owner did contact me the day after arrival and indicate the listing should have been removed and offered to pay for bike rental.

Girls Trip
The condo was exactly what we were expecting and everything we needed. Pool area was wonderful and the beach just a short walk away. We did struggle getting transportation but seems like that may be the case for the whole island. The Santini Plaza had delicious restaurants and was nice and easy to get to.

Good location
Nice pool & hot tub. Hot tub jets weren't working, so I told the maintenence guy. They were working later that day. Close to several restaurants within walking distance. Beach was narrow across the street but wider if you went further to the south.

Great condo, beds weren’t great
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo was clean and updated. The master bedroom had a small bed, either a double or a small queen. We would have been a lot more comfortable in a long sized bed. Please invest in a king sized bed for future guests.

Just OK
We had a pleasant stay at this condo in February 2024. It was not as clean upon check-in as I'm used to, with many noticeable crumbs on the couch cushions on arrival. We felt the need to wash dishes before using them. I would say a lot of the unit felt a bit run down and a bit dingy (rust spots in the both tub, worn couches, etc.) We were never able to find or were told about how to find the bikes or the beach toys. That said, we did manage to take advantage of the beautiful pool every day and the condo is conveniently located to many beautiful beaches. It's a quiet condo despite this unit being close to the main road. We enjoyed sitting on the screened balcony for dinner and watching the sunset over the gulf. The condo has a lot of potential, but we likely wouldn't stay here again until a few updates and a thorough cleaning of the unit is done.

very comfortable condo with close beach access
We stayed here between Christmas and New Year 2023/24. Overall we were very happy with the condo. The beds were comfortable and we really appreciated the layout with living room/kitchen/laundry/half-bath on one level and 2 bedrooms/2bathrooms upstairs. We were expecting 2 baths so the main level half-bath was a very pleasant surprise. The walk to the beach took about 5 minutes and was directly across the road, which was easy to get across during our stay. At the time we stayed there, the beach was mostly unoccupied so we were able to easily find a place to set up and it was easy to go back to the condo if we wanted to get something else. The kitchen was stocked with the expected cooking utensils/cookware. The living room furniture was comfortable and there were cozy blankets. Beach towels were located in the laundry room. The Publix and CVS were about a mile away on the same road and easy to get to for groceries and other supplies. The reason for the "disappointing" accuracy rating is that the listing said there were 2 bikes and wifi, which was a large factor in choosing this unit. There were no bikes and the "wifi" in the unit did not exist since the router was not plugged into anything (or able to be plugged into anything). We contacted the property manager and received a quick response, but nothing was actually fixed. We were told later that the internet issue has now been fixed, but this occurred after we left. Overall a very pleasant stay.

Great Condo.. Vacasa Horrible Property Management
The code to get in was lost in my texts so it took me a while to locate.. needing a 9 Digit code to unlock door every time is annoying. There were no keys for the storage shed, so no bikes, no beach equipment. I telework so needed WiFi but the WiFi didn’t work! I contacted Vacasa way too many times to count. I was told a repairmen would come, no one ever came. I was told a manager would call. No one ever called. I had my 80 year old Mom and no beach chair. I had my 17yo son and no bikes, I had to work and No WiFi. The garbage disposal was broken and the sink was clogged and smelly. The freezer was full of ice because someone didn’t put the ice tray in properly. The water pressure in the guest bathroom is terrible. We all wound up using the master bathroom. The remotes to the tvs were all in a cabinet in the living room. We couldn’t get the upstairs TVs to work, but we did finally figure out the living room even tho the batteries were critically low.. The beach was beautiful, and the pool was great! But Vacasa is a horrible management company. I tried to handle this privately, but again no response.. tickets were put in for help, I was told they were being expedited.. but nothing… so sad such an amazing property is using such a horrible property management company.

Great place
Overall a great place to stay and would recommend! It was overall clean but there were a couple spots like the fans that haven’t been cleaned in months. We read a couple reviews of the master bedroom missing a box spring/being uncomfortable but the bed was actually great. The water pressure in the master bathroom was awesome and I really appreciate how clean the bathrooms were. The living room TV is pretty small and could use an upgrade but we really liked the 200+ channels. It’s a short walk to a really beautiful beach, but we couldn’t find the directions to the beach access, but thankfully someone pointed us in the right direction. The pool and hot tub were also a short walk behind the condo and really nice and clean.

Enjoyed the weather
We enjoyed our stay at the condo. We do think the kitchen pots and pans could have been better quality. The 2 frying pans that were there were very poor. We were disappointed that there were no bathroom facilities at the beach. My husband has back issues which made it very inconvenient to have to walk back to condo.
