About this apartment rental
Welcome to Dolphin Beach Retreat, your unique place in paradise! This property is located mid-island with beach access just steps across Estero Boulevard. A quiet relaxing location for that desired getaway, yet just a short walk along the beach is a kiosk for jet-ski rentals, parasailing rides, and even dolphin tours along a 7-mile stretch of white, sugary sand beach.
Super convenient to the supermarket and an upscale bistro on the bay. Trolley service along the boulevard is available to transport you to Times Square, with all of its restaurants, clubs, and night life.
The property has a fantastic lanai porch with ambient evening lighting that leads to the property entrance. The nicely furnished living area has comfy sofa, TV with YouTubeTV. Dining area finds a table seating 6, and a fully equipped kitchen. Everything is available that you would need to cook daily multi-course dinners, or simply make a pot of coffee in the morning.
The master bedroom has a queen size bed, closet, and plenty of dresser space. Guest bedroom has a queen size bed, closet, and plenty of dresser space. Downstairs common area has a washer and dryer. There's a propane grill that is shared. All lower levels have evening ambient lighting and privacy lattice work surrounds this area. You'll also find parking spaces accommodating 2 vehicles.
There are many restaurants and shops a short drive north across the bridge towards south Fort Myers. The same is true if you drive south towards Bonita Beach. Water activities abound with fishing charters, scuba and snorkel adventures, jet ski rentals, para-sailing, etc. Fort Myers, Bonita Springs and Naples are all modern cities with plenty of shopping, dining and sight seeing to experience. The South West International Airport in Fort Myers is close by for convenience as well.
For our guests with allergies, this property is non-smoking.
Dog friendly restrictions and fees apply. Dogs are permitted up to 25 lbs and non-aggressive breeds only with pet fee paid in advance. Limit of two. Fee is $20 per night per dog.

Location was great. Close enough to the downtown area to get there quickly, but far enough away to avoid the traffic. Short walk to the beach, quiet street, clean environment. Overall a great place to stay!

We appreciate the supplies that were here.The grill worked great and we appreciate it being here. Absolutely great location, reminded us of our spot at Red Coconut RV Park before Hurricane Ian.Bedroom fans make noise when on making it difficult to use during sleeping hours.Could sure use some shelves (even open) in the corner to the right of the oven/stove above the counter. Installation of a microwave above the stove sure would provide more useable counter space. Either need more counter space or medicine cabinet or standing cabinet in both bathrooms.Need some type of dish drainer apparatus since there is no dish washer. We bought one you can keep. Please make sure you tell people it is only a Keurig coffee maker only.Based on the orientation of the kitchen, it would be very advantageous to reverse the refrigerator doors so the opening faces the kitchen counter. There is also a need for some type of cutting board especially since the supplied knife set is all serrated blades that could negatively impact the formica..The sofa is missing a support leg where the back stops on the chez. It is already falling and not going to last long. Other kitchen items that would be helpful are: peeler, meat thermometer, tongs, ice cube trays,It would be much better to have a TV wall mount that could extend and swivel towards the dining table.The half bath needs a better anchor for the towel rack.It is great that there is a gas grill but need some metal kitchen tools to use on it

This spot feels like a hidden gem. Just across Estero Boulevard from the beach, it's quiet yet close to everything. The space is simple but comfortable, with a lanai porch that's perfect for relaxing after a day in the sun. Ideal for a low-key beach escape.
