Great!
We loved the property! Decorated very cozy and loved the bed. It was perfect for my husband and I. Everything we need was at the house. Silly thing is buy cooking oil and paper towels, they are not provided. Location is great, nearby all the necessities. Quick drive to the beach.

Fantastic Host Preparing Me for Milton
I had the pleasure of staying at the Charming Beach Cottage in October 2024 for a vacation/business trip. The hosts were fantastic to work with. Prior to my check-in, Marion messaged me to get water and gas and prepare for hurricane Milton. My plans change quickly due to the hurricane and Marion was great to work with. We communicated a lot for the next couple of days preparing for Milton to hit. Marion provided great hurricane advise, as I am a hurricane rookie. I was blessed to have a host so invested in my safety as well as that of her property. I was not able to enjoy the pool, the reason I booked this property, due to the weather, but it was a fantastic set up. The pool was clean and a great size. Plenty of pool toys and beach chairs in the storage room. The house was clean, well stocked and just comfortable. The neighborhood was quiet and well maintained. An easy drive to beach, groceries, restaurants and North Naples. I enjoyed my stay and will return when Mother Nature isn't as angry. Wonderful house and WONDERFUL hosts. I booked this property because of the pool, but will return because of the house and Marion. Thank you again.

FGCU parent visit
This is a great little cottage convenient to FGCU/Naples etc. We only needed 2 BRs but families traveling with infants would like to know that there is a 3rd bedroom with a REAL crib (not a packNplay) along with the larger bed. We spent most of our time by the pool, both in the sun and the covered shaded area. Backyard is on the south side of the house, so sun is in the pool area all day. Plenty of bed linens, towels etc. and kitchen was well stocked - even though we didn't cook - plenty of options to order via DoorDash and short Uber ride to Ruth' Chris for a nice dinner with our daughter and some of her new friends/teammates at FGCU. 5th Ave in Naples was about 20 minutes for an amazing Sunday lunch. Very convenient to the potential necessities - Publix, CVS Pharmacy and Dunkin are a 3-minute car ride away. The ONLY issue was getting into the lockbox - ask Marion to send you the video before you arrive. After watching the video it was super easy.

Comfy beach decor home in quiet area but only minutes drive to beach.
Enjoyed our 5 day stay in this cozy home with refreshing salt water pool in quiet area. Only few minutes drive to beach. Beach parking (paid) was ample if there early (8-9 weekends, before 10 weekdays) or after 3 pm. Beach towels, chairs and umbrellas conveniently available (Host +/- prior guest supply) at the home for use but recommend checking functionality of latter before heading out. Good to go with mix and match of several on site. Rentals also available at beach if desired/preferred. For those new to visiting Florida rain/thundershowers more common in July and during mid-late afternoon. Lots of food options and shopping along nearby Tamiami Trail, especially Estero region. Host very and promptly responsive to queries throughout stay.

Charming Cottage Bonita Springs.
I attended an anesthesia conference at the Hyatt and rented this charming cottage for my daughters and my best friend to join me. Every bit of this lovely home was enjoyed and we loved the back patio and pool. I will attend this conference next year and will bring my husband and daughters. Even though the owners were traveling in Europe, they answered the phone and answered my question despite the time difference. I hold them in the highest regard.

An amazing home away from home
This property was hands down one of the best we have stayed at! The locations is super quiet and laid back. The pool is great! They also had floats and other beach and pool equipment available. Marion was extremely quick to respond if we had any questions and the check out procedure was the most simple we have ever encountered. We had our baby with us so the crib being in the home was very convenient. Thanks again for everything! Our stay was amazing.

Lovely stay with a beautiful clear pool which made us very lazy & not leave the cottage as much as we should . Very tasteful decor & beautiful linens . Could have done with some inside info on Beach parking & nice restaurants - but we managed. Felt very relaxed & charmed here & really glad we came !

We had a wonderful 12 day stay. The property is accurately described, very clean and the location is great - close to the beach and to Tamiami so you can get where you need to go quickly. We enjoyed the pool and the kitchen is fully stocked. The neighborhood is very quiet as well, so sleeping was never a problem. We will be back.

Much nicer home than we expected!
We had the most wonderful stay in the Boat House. Communication with the owner was pleasant and prompt. It was a home away from home for us. I slept better there as I do at home. Wonderful mattress. Supermarket and Restaurants are just a few blocks away whilst this home is nested in a quiet beach neighborhood. The beach was much closer than we thought and watching the sunset at Doc's Beachhouse is a tip I'd like to pass in to future travelers. Beach chairs, umbrella & cooler are there which was a major plus for this home. Even tough we didn't cook. Everything is there... WOW! We'll be back and will recommend this rental to friends & family.

Incredible experience!
Our stay in Bonita Springs was awesome! The home was in a quiet and safe neighborhood, but was a short drive to multiple great beaches and state parks. The home was also nearby many shops and several shopping centers. The house and grounds alike were decorated beautifully, and the pool was great! Cleanliness was 10/10, and it was great to have an abundance of linens to use. Everything you would need for cooking was present. And the host had every beach toy, chairs, umbrellas and even several nice bikes to use. The host was friendly and easy to work with during our stay. We look forward to coming back and checking out another property managed by the host. Thanks!
