Family Time

Amy our property manager was 5 Star. She answered all question promptly and always with a friendly response. The property was as advertised. Spacious is an understatement, pool and hot tube were great, the pool table was a nice add for a rainy day, dock area was nice for sun and quiet outdoor mornings. Only minus tot he trip would be that the lanai could use a cleaning along with the outdoor grill/sitting area. Still, overall we would love stay again

Family Trip

We had a great family stay. Reached out about 2 doors that would not lock, it was taken care of right away. The jets on whirlpool are not very bubbly. When they were turned on they did not shut off all night.. it was a learning curve, if it is on the pool stops heating...if it is off they circulate together keeping both nice and warm. I believe they buying a tablet so future guest can turn it on and off at will. Overall a great trip, beautiful home.

Amenities not as we expected

Grill was not usable, bikes had flat tires, kayaks didn’t have ropes so were not usable, we had to contact property manager to adjust pool temperature, get the tv to work, and to buy a pump for bike tires. We still had a great stay but minor issues need to be attended to.

Excellent Vacation Home

As a group of three couples we enjoyed having our own bedrooms and bathrooms since we stayed for a month. Two of our group love to cook and the kitchen was large and well stocked. We used the heated pool and hot tub every day. When sitting on the dock, we saw manatees three different days and the many burrowing owls in the neighborhood were a joy to see each day. Amy, the property manager, was always extremely responsive to our requests and always a pleasure. I would highly recommend this property.

Perfect vacation home for two families!

We traveled to Cape Coral from Wisconsin over spring break. We enjoyed our stay very much. Kids loved the pool, adults loved the dock on the canal. There were a enough beds, towels for everyone. We enjoyed our stay so much that we are already booked for next year. We had the opportunity to meet Sylvie and her family on our way out and they were so friendly and nice. Can't wait until vacation next year.

Nice home

Overall, the stay was good. There were sugar ants in the master bathroom and incorrect wifi password provided on check-in instructions, but property contact responded quickly. A/C struggled during day, but this is due to excessive 95+ deg temperatures during our stay. Plenty of room and nice pool / grill.

What a great place to be quarantined

We loved being quarantined at this property during Covid-19. It was easy to get to, the property manager was very accommodating and quick to respond to our questions. The home had everything we needed and more. The distance to open water thru the canal system was a bit longer than we expected but the weather was beautiful so we didn’t mind the leisurely cruise. We had such a memorable 3 weeks here. We hope to do it again!

Over the top - luxury

We are a family of 2 adults and 3 kids and everyone got their own bedroom since the house is very big. Location is great and easy to find, close to everything (5 minutes to grocery store, 10 minutes to the beach and 25 minutes to Sanibel Island). Interior is a bit worn but functional and the pool area is awesome. Having an evening drink on the canal-side patio is amazing. We will come back!

Great property for the price!

We were so sad to have to leave this property. While the house is in need of a few minor updates, what house isn't! And none of them affected our stay in the least. The property manager was attentive to all of our needs and questions, including bringing us toilet paper in the midst of all of this coronavirus outbreak! Everything was there that was needed, the pool and hot tub were amazing, and we spent so much time sitting on the dock soaking in the sun and occasionally fishing. Would definitely recommend and stay again!

Great stay in Cape Coral!

We really enjoyed our 10 day stay in Villa Oliveira. We were with two other couples and we had plenty of room to relax and enjoy the great weather. The house was well equipped and the property manager was quick to respond to any questions or issues. The outside space is beautiful with a lovely pool and hot tub; that we used everyday. The dock area is set up with seating and was a relaxing spot to sit in the evening. The house is located in a nice, safe neighbourhood and close to shopping and restaurants. We would definitely stay there again and would highly recommend it . Joan Kemptville, Ontario, Canada

We loved it!

We stayed at Villa Oliveira for a week in April 2014. We had 6 adults and 3 teenagers and there was plenty of room for everyone. The house is clean, very comfortable and in a nice, peaceful and convenient location. The kids loved spending time fishing from the dock. Sylvie is great to work. I had many questions leading up to the trip and she always answered me promptly. I hope to work with Sylvie again, to plan another stay in the future as we would all love to return to Cape Coral and Villa Oliveira. Thank you to both Sylvie and Sascha for everything.

Needs Improvement

Overall house accommodated my family well. Location was convenient and quiet neighborhood. However if I book a place for 1 week I expect there to be enough toilet paper, garbage bags and dishwashing pods for 9 people for the week instead of the 2 garbage bags and 2 dishwashing pods and one roll of tp per bathroom that was supplied! I do not think for the amount of money I spent to book this home that I should have to go out and buy these things! Also, if I am required to wash towels and linens the detergent should also be supplied.

Lost and no home to go to

This house was not available when we landed in Ft. Meyer on our check in day. Imagine my surprise when I read the note from Sylvie! We waited about an hour and she offered a 3 bedroom, 3 bath and of course I accepted it so me and my family had a house to go to. It was a downgrade from the 4 bedroom house I booked and paid for. No refund received.

Absolutely Beautiful Home!!

This home is just as the pictures depict it....maybe even a bit better! Myself, son & daughter-in-law and daughter, son-in-law & 1 year old grandson stayed here for a week. We had plenty of room for us to enjoy each other and also have our own space too! The pool and hot tub are extremely well maintained! There is a remote for the pool and spa which makes heating it up, turning on the jets & lights very convenient. The beds and linens are very comfortable and first class. The kitchen has granite counter tops and was well stocked. The view is gorgeous from the lanai and the dock! There are flat screen TV's in every room, including out in the lanai! There was music playing upon our arrival and the property managers were VERY nice and very easy to work with. I have recommended this home to my friends and will definitely be renting here again!

Good but could be improved

The house and pool were great and the housekeeping team left it clean but there were several areas that smelled musty like the entire upstairs, under the kitchen sink and the washing machine. It wasn't terrible but may not be great for someone with allergies. There were also only small, old towels to use. The main issue was the hot tub. The temp was not controllable from the house and too cold. It was one of the main reasons we picked this house so it was disappointing. We called, as instructed, to the property manager to let them know we were there and both numbers in the check in instructions and welcome book are wrong. We finally got the right number but they never called back or turned up the hot tub temp so we had zero contact with anyone our whole stay. Overall good for the price but room for improvement.

Awesome location lousy property management

The location of the home was great. Stores, restaurants and beaches very close. Overall the house was great. The issues were some lights didn't work, several tv's also would not work. The one outside was the biggest disappointment since that was one of the things we looked at in renting the house. Also in the homes welcome book it said not to do anything with the hot tub until the property management came over to show you how it worked. Upon check in we called and left a message stating the pool was warmer than hot tub and wanted to get that working, the property management never called or showed up to help us. After 2 days we figured out how to work it ourselves. The house did have many extras to use at the beach and at the house. If the property was maintained it would be a 5 start rental but the fact they didn't do much of anything I'd say keep looking. I've been renting in sw Florida for 10 years and this was the worse up-kept house so far

Pleasant but a bit of a let down

The upstairs smelled of mold, you could see where water had been leaking from upstairs on the main floor. The pool didn’t filter properly so there were a lot of bugs in it. The screen on the ceiling of the patio was hanging down and bugs were getting in constantly. The bikes were not functional. The TVs in two of the rooms didn’t work properly, one was so fuzzy you couldnt see the picture and the other would not change channels. On a positive note, the environment was peaceful and serene. The pool table, though needing redone, was a good additive. The checkin was easy especially after a flight. The location was convenient with stores close. The drive to the beach was short and easy. The beds were overall comfortable though the upstairs squeaked if you turned. My favorite part of the house was the dock on the canal. Beautiful as the sun rises and extremely peaceful at night! I loved the lights on the table and just the overall feel! Overall good place to stay. With the amount of money spent I expected a bit better. However time with family was great!

Not like advertised

We went the week of July 4th and were so excited to have a week to relax before going back to work. We checked in with the number provided for the property manager which was a cell phone and never got an answer back. The house was not cleaned and we kept on finding obscene decorations from what I assume was a Bachelorette party that my daughter kept bringing to me and asking about. These decorations were of the male anatomy of a man.The pool table was broken so my husband and brother in law did not play any pool. Lights were not working in the laundry room and two burners did not work on the stove. The screen on the lanai was broken so mosquitoes came in to the pool area. Loose tiles on the lanai that were dangerous. We still had a great time in Cape Coral but that was not because of this house. It was extremely disappointing and I will continue renting with swflrentals.com in the future because at least they are truthful about their houses and the state they are in and have been for the past 6 years We have been going there.

DO NOT STAY HERE

I have never written a negative review b4, but this is by far the worst experience my family and I have ever had renting. First day, kayaks are not there and pool cues are broken. These things were taken care of after I reached out. Later that night we started to notice the ants! At first they had just gotten into stuff on the kitchen counters. And not just food. I sent a picture of the ants to the property manager. Two days later she brought over ant bait traps to sit out. By now, ants are in everything. They are in our luggage, the showers the counters, the dressers, even the couch. I took a shower, dried off and had ants crawling up my arms. We had to rewash all of our luggage and place everything up in closets. On day 5 the ants were in my hanging luggage. I immediately told the property manager that this house needed an exterminator and the owners need to pay for us to stay somewhere else. Only then on day 5 of our 7 day stay were we moved to an empty house that evening. This ant problem was not bc of open food nor is it caused by rain. Looking back at reviews this is an ongoing issue that has never been taken care of. I have reached out to the owners & property manager asking for compensation. I was told that bc I was moved and they have to pay a cleaning fee that I should be satisfied. I’m not satisfied I’m am furious! We had to eat out every meal, continuously wash everything and really couldn’t be in the house. I have photos and videos if the owner try’s 2 deny.
