Beach Pearl - Pool House

Ben is an excellent host. The property is well maintained. We were especially happy about the well equipped kitchen. We stayed for two weeks with our baby daughter and would definitely come again.

WE LOVED OUR WEEKLY STAY IN NAPLES. THE HOME WAS ON A QUIET STREET. THE THREE BEDROOMS ACCOMODATED OUR FAMILY OF 6. THE HEATED SALT WATER POOL WAS ENJOYED BY ALL. THE 4 BEACH CHAIRS, UMBRELLA , BEACH CART AND SMALL COOLER WAS VERY HELPFUL FOR OUR BEACH DAYS. BEN WAS VERY ACCOMODATING AND SUPPLIED A STROLLER, PACK AND PLAY, CRIB, HIGHCHAIR AND BEACH WAGON FOR USE FOR THE 2 AND 4 YEAR OLD GRAND KIDS. WE APPRECIATED THIS VERY MUCH.THE KITCHEN HAS EVERYTHING YOU WOULD NEED.WE DID USE THE OUTDOOR GRILL.VANDERBILT BEACH IS ABOUT A MILE AWAY WAS A LONG WALK FOR US WITH 2 LITTLES. THEY HAVE A CIRCLE DROP OFF SO WE USED IT IN THE MORNING AND MY SON IN LAW DROVE RENTAL CAR BACK TO HOME AND TOOK ONE OF THE 4 BIKES SUPPLIED AT HOME BACK TO THE BEACH AND LOCKED AT THE BIKE STAND. THERE IS A PARKING GARAGE AT VANDERBILT BUT BEING SPRING BREAK WEEK IT WAS FULL MOST DAYS. SO HAVING THE BIKE WAS A PLUS. WE DID GO TO LOWDERMILK BEACH IT IS LOVELY YOU PAY TO PARK THERE I BELIEVE WAS 4 $ PER HOUR AND THEY HAVE A CONCESSION STAND WITH FOOD AND BATHROOMS AND SHOWERS. WE WENT TO DEWIGGINS STATE PARK BEACH AND PARKING WAS FULL HOWEVER THEY HAVE A FLOW OVER PARKING LOT CONNER PARK AND A CIRCLE DROP OFF AREA AND MY HUSBAND PARKED FREE AND WALKED ABOUT 1/2 MILE BACK TO BEACH . THIS BEACH HAD NICE BATHROOMS WE ENJOYED MERCATO SHOPPING CENTER WHICH IS NEAR PROPERTY WE DROVE THERE FOR DINNERS AND ICECREAM.WALMART AND LOTS OF STORES NEARBY. NEEDS IMPROVEMENT- MATTRESS TOO SOFT, ICEMAKER NOT WORKING

House worked out great for family. Plenty of room for 5 adults and pool was great. One mile walk to beach and 1/2 mile walk to Mercato. Great location!

Pretty nice house, nicely located, regarding most services and the beach. For the most part we enjoyed our stay. 2 things in particular rubbed me the wrong way though: #1 - I had to chase down access instructions upon arriving in FLA. I believe access instructions are the sole responsibility of the property owner or designee. I received an email (from VRBO) several days before flying, that said access info would be provided in the coming days. That info never arrived. Considering the rental process, and the fact the renter "has to" make payments by certain dates, I believe the same should hold true for the owner. The owner or designee should "have to" make access info available by a certain day. #2 - Some appliance or perhaps the pool, calls for water constantly. The auto-feed process clunks the pipes in close proximity to the master bedroom. The clunking goes on day and night. I did mention to Ben. Perhaps there's something that can be done to fix that situation, but I believe for the money (paid in advance!) a good night(s) sleep should be expected, and future renters should know, and be able to inquire about, before committing to the rental. Last thing.. I gave "cleanliness" a middle of the road vote, mostly because of weeds inside the lanai.. Large, crazy weeds growing out between the paver stones, in the immediate walking area (bare feet!). The house was clean upon our arrival but the weeds had been long ignored.
