David - May 2026

We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The location was great, with easy access to the beach and local attractions. Angie was an excellent host, friendly, responsive, and provided clear check-in instructions. We felt right at home and would gladly stay here again. Highly recommended!



Allison -April 2026

This was my first Airbnb stay and we had such a great time! The location was perfect — just a quick walk to the beach, and I loved being able to bring my dog along too. It was also super convenient having restaurants and other places nearby. The wagon and beach chairs were such a nice bonus and made our beach trips so much easier. Angie was really friendly, responsive, and helpful the whole time. I’d definitely come back and stay here again!

Cute little apartment with a short walk to the beach! Host was super responsive and even got us in earlier than our check in time. Only comment would be the lack of ceiling lights in the bedrooms but wasn’t a big problem. Would definitely stay here again!!
10 / 10Outstanding·Mar 2026
Met the owner during our stay who was on-site to check an issue with the pool. She was excellent in communicating and receiving some feedback. Since the amenities are shared amongst the renters we had a chance to meet them as well which only added to the experience.
8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2026
Pros: great location, easy walk to beach access but back far enough so no Estero Blvd noise. Easy walk to bars and restaurants as well.Clean, plenty of towels, beds soft but comfy. Nice size rooms. Shower hot and spacious. Large vanity. Starter shower gel, shampoo, conditioner provided Nice to have access to beach wagons, coolers, chairs.Nice to have laundry available. Great clean grills, pool small but very nice. Very clean and well maintained outside areas. Owner very accessible . Cons:Lack of lamps. Living room could use a floor lamp. Bedroom #2 could use an extension cord and lamp on bedside stand. Master BR could use a lamp on the dresser. Kitchen lacking in knives including steak knives, and cooking utensils ( whisks, kitchen shears, slotted spoons, etc)A keurig would be a plus. low lighting in kitchen also. Starter liquid detergent and dishwasher pods would be nice. Overall I would recommend this property and would rebook.
6 / 10Average·Feb 2026
The host was very welcoming. The amenities could definitely be improved. The kitchen utensils, pans and cups were minimal. The lighting was very minimal - one small lamp in each room (aside from the kitchen). It would be nice if there was a fan in the bathroom or a screen on the window.
