Great place to stay with large families. 5 min walk to the beach and pool and spa in the backyard. The canal was nice for fishing as well. Had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. Will definitely be back!

Wonderful Spring Break
First time our family has visited the island. We've traveled quite extensively throughout the country and prefer a sense of home that a single family house such as this offers. I have to say that Catch & Relax ranks up there will the best homes we've rented. Everything was extremely clean, the kitchen was well stocked and the management company was responsive to a couple of small requests that we did make. We enjoyed being on the quieter south end of the island but still found it quick and easy to make it to the north side for additional entertainment/food options. No need to hesitate on renting here if you're looking to book a trip to FMB. Hope to be back again!
We had a wonderful week enjoying this beautiful home. It was plenty spacious for our family of 7. The canal was an added plus for us, since we brought our paddle boards. Modern and up to date. Having two sets of washer and dryers made the week a breeze for doing laundry. Plenty of beach supplies plus towels. Location was great. Simple to go into Bonita Springs for dinner. Far enough away from the Fort Meyer’s traffic. Walk to beach also easy. Publix right down the street. We would definitely enjoy coming back to this house again. Thank you for sharing your home!!!
This house is amazing! Our family had a wonderful stay. We loved the basement, pool, and hot tub. The canal was awesome. We brought paddle boards and paddled and fished right off the nice dock/deck.
The home had almost everything in the kitchen that we needed- thank goodness bc we ate in all week. Traffic to get down town was terrible (1hour and 20 minutes to get to Walmart 5 miles away). Just be aware. The beach access was a little farther than expected but I think that had to do with construction across the street.
This home is on the expensive side for sure, but we loved it.

Great
House is fantastic. Location great beach is right there, publix is close.
We stayed for thanksgiving with our family and there was plenty of room.
Having the 1/2 bath and full size refrigerator right outside of the pool was great.
The only thing that would of been perfect is we could of had the elevator working for my mom who can't really do stairs that was one of the main reason I booked this home.
Otherwise everything was great everyone had their own bathrooms, pool and hot tub was awesome and having the laundry was wonderdul. we would definitely book again and hope the elevator would be available.
The host was quickly responsive as well… five stars
My family of four and my brother's family of six all stayed comfortably in this beautiful, spacious, and clean home. The photos are very accurate. The beach is a short walk down the street and across the road. The outdoor space at the house with pool and hot tub is lovely. It was stocked with pool toys, beach chairs, and cooler. The downtown area is a little farther away, and the only issue we had all week was with traffic. Around 4pm the road leading into town would back up. There is a trolley system, which is great, but one day we hopped off the trolley to walk because it was faster. Many places have opened back up, but there are still lots of places closed from the hurricane as of this review.
We loved this property!! We are a local family that needed a quick getaway. Thus house had everything we could ask for!! Would definitely come back again!!
We were very pleased with this rental. It was plenty big for our family group. The beach was super close and there were tons of restaurants within walking distance or a short drive away. I would definitely rent this place again.
What a great home and location. We had a fantastic week with 10 people. The home was everything we were looking for. The location is near the beach, stores and night life. We will, be back next year!!!
We stayed here with a large group of girls and we had an absolute BLAST! The house fit everyone perfectly and comfortably :) having 5.5 bathrooms in the house definitely made getting ready with such a large group so much easier! Cannot say enough great things about this property.
Had a great time with plenty of space. Could enjoy beach or pool. Rented a boat and was able to tie up at house. Rented bikes and could get to restaurants and shops.
The house was beautiful, very clean. Down the street from the beach. The pool was very nice and the hot tub heats up very quickly. We had no issues while staying here, and the property manager Linda, was very responsive.
They do have an elevator so its perfect to help you take up groceries and luggage up to the rooms and living spaces.
I am definitely going to stay here again
Wonderful house. Love the Pool, grill, etc. Bathrooms for everyone is nice. Only issue we had was intermittent internet the entire trip- constantly dropping while trying to work and TVs in certain rooms had issues connecting at all. Was an issue more for the grandparents but overall still an awesome house! Would highly recommend!! Location is amazing as well.

Great House with Lots of Room
We recently stayed with our two adult children and their families, this house was great because we could spread out and have room to ourselves. There was plenty of room for everyone but yet plenty of room in the common areas for everyone to gather. The beach is not a far walk, just around the corner and it was great having the beach items available in the garage to use. There are some good restaurants in the Santini Marina Plaza, we also rented a boat from Fish Tale marina that was a lot of fun. Can't wait to go back!
This property was very accommodating, all rooms and space listed in the property were all accurate. We were a family group of 10 and there was plenty of space in the house for us. Location to the beach was a block away. If I have to pick a could've been better for the house was that there was not bathroom on the first floor so you always have to go up one level to use the restroom. Besides that everything was perfect, do go ready to do a lot of stairs since the house is 3 floors, we were a bit sore for days 🙃
