Waterfront apartment rentals

cozy 1st floor apartment
My very first Airbnb and I'm sure it will set the standard for any future ones that I use. Super convenient location, plenty of parking, right on the canal so you see the dolphins and the manatees at any given point. I met Lori in person and she helped me with everything that I needed and was super kind. I spent a week kayaking the island and there are so many places to go that you don't have to leave the island once you get there.

Sunset Cove at Vanderbilt Beach
Had a great stay here! As advertised and right near the beach!

Your Home at the Beach!
Sylvia’s home was beautiful, very clean and stocked with everything we could have possibly needed!

Turtle Bay 1B Manasota Key Condo
This rental is PERFECT! So homey and so close to the beach! I can go on and on about how perfect this vacation was for us!!

Lovers Key Beach Club Suite
Very clean and well equipped condo on the 10th floor overlooking the gulf and bay.l From our lanai we watched dolphins, ospreys and one morning a bald eagle diving for fish. Scott was a great host and responded to any questions we had within minutes. The property has a nice private beach, pool and 4 weber gas grills. Flippers restaurant is only steps away. The only issue is that the new bridge onto Ft.Myers Beach is under construction so at times there is construction noise and access to the beach south of the bridge is blocked. This was not a big issue for us and overall we had a very enjoyable week.

Lover's Key at Siesta Dreams
This little beach house was super cute and clean! We had no issues at all and we had a great stay. We’d definitely come back!

Garden Villa
Thank you for being such a wonderful host, I will definitely book again being I be out here a lot! I felt so peaceful and at home! Thank you again!

Manatee Suite 2 / Funky Fish House at Cape Harbour
We needed a last minute place to stay & this place was amazing! I’ve stayed at a lot of airbnb’s & this was by far the cleanest/nicest. Check in was very easy. It was spotless, stocked with everything you need, plenty of toilet paper, towels, detergent, toiletries, extra blankets. There was beach towels, a cooler & a nice backpack to use. They even had a couple snacks and water bottles for us. The view is amazing, so peaceful & quiet. Even the linen smelled amazing lol. Tiki hut was so cute & the game room. The hosts answered very quickly to one of my requests & were very accommodating. Definitely found my new spot when visiting family. Highly recommend!

Luxe Riverfront Retreat~Pool~Spa~Bar~Tropical Yard
Very happy we took a chance on this home. We had such a wonderful time. The owner has every amenity well thought out. I’ve never stayed at an Airbnb that had this many supplies which is nice when you fly and can’t bring as much as normal. We ate lots of good seafood. My grandsons spent hours fishing on the dock.

Brandnew Villa - pool & spa at canal south facing
Very happy with stay/house/amenities/pool/spa. Newer construction with tall ceilings, beautiful appointments, bathrooms, fixtures and appliances. Kitchen provided with every imaginable item needed to cook and entertain. Salt water pool and spa were wonderful and overlook canal intersection. Lovely step down from pool to wrap-around deck overlooking canal. Easily accommodated larger family gathering for dinner/swimming. Certainly one of the nicest homes we've visited in Florida. Highly recommended.

3/2 LGI Gulf Front w/Dock
This wonderful beach house comes highly recommended for anyone seeking a place to unwind, relax, and disconnect from everyday life. It offers a peaceful atmosphere that is truly refreshing. The kitchen is well equipped, and there are plenty of towels, linens, and pillows available. The furniture is incredibly comfortable. The neighbors are friendly and very helpful, making the experience even better. This place is truly a gem.

Waterfront Cape Coral Oasis+ Heated Pool | Kayaks
The house is a true gem! Beautiful comfortable and it has everything you need. Super family-friendly, everything has been thought to make you feel at home. The pool is beautiful and the summer kitchen is amazing. On top of that Romy goes above and beyond to make sure you have a good time and he’s super responsive. We are very happy we picked this house and we will come back!

The Harbor House
We had a great time at harbor house! Saw lots of wildlife from the dock! Definitely will stay again!

CocoHut
It is difficult to write a review of the stay at Coco-hut, given the very, very unique nature of this property. We were there to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and it was a perfect place to be in nature and away from others for the four days we were there. The house was very nice and comfortable and the beach & hot tub were perfect. The sunsets were (as advertised) amazing. In short, we had no complaints about the house or the area. The only complaint my wife and I had was that the owner, Ray, after booking sent over an email with 5 PDF attachments. 3 were helpful details on the visit and welcomes. One was a rather threatening 17-page PDF on all the things that you can be "charged" for if you do not do correctly. The last was a 5-page legal rental agreement that he required signature in advance on. During visit, we had some minor issues and Ray was very condescending to us. The Lemonheads had a great song that we kept thinking of during our stay, "It's a shame about Ray." ;-(

Boater’s Paradise-Stunning Sunsets! Games Room!
Meghan was always responsive from check in to check out. The house was everything we wanted and needed. It was our second time there so we knew what to expect. It was even better than the last visit! The house had everything we needed. All we did was get our groceries and relaxed for the entire week. We’ll definitely be back!

2 Kings, Pool, Gulf Canal, Game Room and Kayaks
We had a great time! The home was beautiful and had everything we needed. We loved that it was close to multiple beaches so we could explore - Sanibel Island, Fort Myers and more. We spent a lot of time in the pool and hanging out in the outdoor area. My son even caught some catfish off the dock. The game room was perfect for evenings when we needed a break from the sun. Highly recommend and have already had requests from friends & family to share the listing!

Sunset Beach
Ed's place has become our happy place and our home away from home! This trip was so relaxing and healing after a surgery...just what I needed. Great sunsets!

EBT 206C Exceptional Panoramic Gulf Views +2 Bikes
Caihlin was a fantastic host. Very responsive to our questions/concerns. The place was just as beautiful as the pictures showed and we enjoyed everything about it. There were plenty of beach items to use, so we didn't need to purchase anything to enjoy the beach. There were plenty of games to play, books to read and even a drawer full of extra batteries for the TV remote if needed. We even had access to their 2 bikes and took an enjoyable morning bike ride into Fort Myers beach. You will not be disappointed at all with your stay.

Seaside 302 - Beachfront 2BR/2BA - Solmate on FMB
It was a beautiful property. The view was so nice right on the beach, there were a lot of accommodations, including beach chairs and an umbrella that we did not have to pay for. I love that we had our own private parking spot right by the door. I will definitely book again. It was so peaceful and perfect. The host was very responsive.

The Club at Naples Cay 501 - Gulf Views
We loved our stay! the photos of the listing don't do justice to how nice the area is, extremely well maintained, great pool, very short walk to beach, and all the conveniences that the condo provided. The views from the condo were breathtaking. We love Naples but had never been at Naples Cay but now it is our favorite place to stay. The beds were very comfortable! We had everything that we could ask for in terms of kitchen appliances, etc. The oven and the stove were great. Our 1 year old slept great in the bassinet provided, and the 4 year old loved the books and beach toys. Looking forward to coming back 😀

Bayfront 3 Bedroom Condo Walkable to Beach. Unit 1
Amazing stay !! Just like pictured and very clean . Loved it here will surely return.

Sanibel Island Waterfront Condo!!
Staying at Juanita’s place was wonderful. Got to see the sunrise every morning and rode my bike to the beach everyday! I highly recommend staying in the condo as the neighbors were so lovely. In addition the pool was wonderful at the end of each day!

Casa Bonita - Relax @ The Beach (Newly Remodeled)
Our stay at this Airbnb was absolutely amazing! From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by the attention to detail and the warm, welcoming atmosphere. The space was impeccably clean, beautifully decorated, and equipped with all the amenities we could have hoped for. The host was incredibly responsive and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We especially loved the cozy ambiance and the peaceful surroundings—it truly felt like a home away from home. We can’t wait to return and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a perfect getaway!

Sanibel Island Florida 2 Bdm Condo
Great location, beautiful view of sunrise over the water and fort Myers. Loved the amenities at the club! Nice to have the bikes available and pool and hot tub were great as well.
