Exceptional Vacation Rental, Can't Go Wrong With Either Property

Exceptional Vacation Rental, Can't Go Wrong With Either Property
5 of 5
Submitted: February 8, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
My husband and I had the pleasure of staying in both Duncan's and Kathy's bungalows in January. I feel the same review applies to both properties.
If you searched on pet friendly you may have been prepared to make sacrifices as far as your comfort but have no fear Duncan's and Kathy's bungalows are PEOPLE friendly as well. Both properties are private, comfortable, clean, equipped with amenities not usually found in vacation rentals. If you are hoping for a quiet retreat the private swimming pools, fenced yards, fully equipped kitchens provide the perfect environment to relax and unwind in safe, quiet neighborhoods. If you are looking for a more active vacation the bungalows are Ideally located for sightseeing, restaurants, shopping etc.
The photos are an accurate portrayal of the homes but the thing that sets these apart from other rentals cannot be captured in photos. That "thing" is the owners. It is obvious from first contact that this is not just a business for them. They truly want their guests (notice I said guests not tenants) to have an enjoyable vacation. Their attention to detail is impeccable, they are never intrusive but quick to respond to any questions or issues that could arise.
Perhaps, Duncan and Kathy should start a consulting business to teach other property owners to provide a unique, comfortable environment, or manage properties for other owners so that guests will return year after year. After returning home and thinking about their special touches and deep commitment, I feel that I should be sending them each a thank you note. We are definitely hoping to return to their perfect vacation rentals.

This beautiful cottage felt like home the minute we walked in the door except at my home I don't have all the nice extras. It was very neat and clean. It had all the comforts for a great relaxing vacation. This place is in a great location near shops and Sanibel Beach. I can't wait to go back.

We really enjoyed our stay at Kathy's home. We loved how close were were to FT Myers Beach and wonderful resturatants and shopping.
Kathy thought of everything that we might need and the house was spotlessly clean.
Most importantly, our dog was secure as the property was totally fenced in and secure.
