Vacasa in Fort Myers Beach, Florida

“Great location. Set up as pictured. Upstairs areas were ok. However, cleanliness was sub par. Upon arrival pool was green with algae and unsafe for swimming. It took two days of our vacation before it was cleaned and treated and safe to use. Grill was disgusting. We had to totally strip and clean it down before it could be used. Outside refrigerator had leftover drinks and spills on inside. The outdoor sink was unusable- waterline was cracked, leaking and plumbing not attached correctly. We had to ask for more pool lounge chairs because two were ripped with holes- they did have a friend bring new ones. The lower level rooms had wall a/c units and it smelled musty. Most windows were unable to be opened. One lower bedroom had exposed wire/chords and an outlet that wasn’t attached to the wall. The upper sliding screen door was ripped and shoved behind a generator located on the upper deck. We have documented these things with pictures and videos. Overall it was just poorly maintained.”

“We have a great vacation. Overall, the condo was very clean (except the back porch floor, very dusty/dirty & stuff was tracked in each time it was used). The beach access was amazingly easy. The view was superb too, however, I’m assuming there was a structure previously blocking the view prior to the hurricane so this view may not always be present if rebuilt. The drive into the main city center was long most days at peak lunch and dinner hrs due to traffic and just one lane. A few other notes for management to address: more beach towels - there were only 4 supplied & the home and can sleep minimally 6. The patio door blind slats were 50% missing in one bedroom so morning light was very bright. Shower heads had very weak water pressure wise as well - made for very lengthy showers. More dishes and plates in the kitchen would have been nice to avoid constant use of the dishwasher as well. All those relatively minor things aside, it was clean and the perfect size for our family of 5.”

“Everything was just as expected! Great!”

“Beautiful home with lots of outdoor seating areas and bird watching. Fully equipped kitchen for our chefs. Each bedroom has own full bath, and pool jacuzzi is nice IF you prefer 70-75 degrees F. If not send a message daily before your trip to have heated pool. We contacted every week prior to arrival, daily and hourly days before checkin, yet all we have is money spent on an unused tepid pool. Disappointing since that was top of our list for amenities in renting a property. We could’ve spent far less for something without a pool, and far less time wasted communicating to Airbnb/vacasa of their neglect to rectify. Security was a problem as 2 doors didn’t lock. Bring a few slider lock bars to be safe! The property was great yet misrepresented and managed by vacasa/airbnb. None of the security nor other issues were ever resolved during our stay.”

“We had a great stay overall! The private pool and outdoor space were exactly what we needed for our family, and it was perfect for traveling with our toddler. The location was a huge plus—easy walking distance to the beach and plaza, and the quiet street made it feel really relaxing. The home had the basic kitchen essentials, but we did find it was missing a some extras that would’ve been helpful, like food storage containers, serving bowls, blankets, and some additional cookware. Overall, a really enjoyable stay in a great location—we’d definitely consider coming back!”
