About Iain Massey

We are an English family who live in Manchester in the north of England. We have been visiting Florida for more than 15 years.

We run a business in the UK and our sucess is built on great customer service, we adopt the same attitude with renting our vacation home.

Iain Massey purchased this house in 2006
Why Iain Massey chose Pine Island

We first visited Pine Island as we wanted to go to Cayo Costa, a beautiful unspoilt barrier Island accessible only by boat and they run from points on Pine Island.

Having previously only been to Sanibel and Captiva we immediatley fell in love with the tranquility of the place and decided to shelve our plans on buying a vacation home in France and look at Pine Island.

We decided to simply drive around the areas of the Island and we knew as soon as we saw this house it was for us.

The area of Bokeelia and Alden pines is like stepping back in time where people have time for each other and are happy to stop for a chat. I have been to many places around the world and the absence of any form of crime or threat in this area is quite unbelievable.

We just love it.

What makes this house unique

The views over the lake from the sitting room whilst having breakfast are with us when we are back home in the cold, wet English winters.

We were very happy with our stay. The pictures do not give this home justice. Very roomy, clean and inviting. Just bring your clothes and food. Everything you need was there. I would recommend this home to my family and friends. The owners were very prompt in their correspondence and followed up to make sure we were happy with our stay.
Owner's Response: I am so pleased you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to welcoming you or your friends in the future.

Thank you for your comments on our service, this is what we pride ourselves on.

We stayed the entire summer at the Massey's vacation home. It was perfect for our family. We enjoyed fishing in the lake out back and we were close to the marina and we could take our boat out too. The neighbors were very friendly and kind to my children. We loved eating the mango's from the tree in the front yard....they were delicious! Beautiful and clean house with plenty of room for the whole family. We will be recommending the Massey's home to all our friends looking for the perfect vacation!!! Thank you Iain for sharing your home with us for the summer!
Owner's Response: Really glad you enjoyed your stay at our home this summer.

We look forward to welcoming you and your friends in the future.

We rented this house in late October 2012 for a girls weekend before one of my dear friends has her first baby. Bottom line, we will be back post baby for another weekend stay!! The house is fabulous, impecably kept, and filled with all the amenities you could ever need! Although Pine Island is a bit slow, honestly, we were perfectly content staying at the house the whole time. Whether relaxing by the pool during the day, having happy hours in the afternoon, and even grilling at night, it was great. There is a grocery store a few miles away and I've heard there are some good restaurants in the area. The layout is a big open space and the bedrooms are all very nice. This is a great place to get away to if you're looking for a nice, relaxing time.
Owner's Response: I am so glad you and your friends enjoyed your stay.

It sounds like you had a great time.

You are right Pine Island is quiet and very laid back and this is the charm of the place.

The area has some great resaurants and a Win-dixie, Liquor store, CVS only 4 miles away. There is a small convenience store 3/4 of a mile away for the essetials.

We look forward to welcoming you again.

This is was our 2nd visit to this beautiful property on Pine Island.
Everything we required for the holiday was available at the home. Again we had a wonderful, relaxing vacation and would recommend this house to anyone.
There was great fishing to the inlet at the rear of the property and my husband caught a Tarpon over 20lbs in weight! We are really looking forward to our next stay.
Pine Island makes a refreshing change from the hussle and bussle and traffic queue's in Orlando.

Owner's Response: Thank you for your comments, I am glad you enjoyed your stay and had sucess whilst fishing.

We found this lovely two story home to be clean, spacious and well-appointed. We relaxed, enjoyed the pool and the view across the golf course waterway. Great spot for peace and quiet, some bike riding and an easy drive to the many Pine Island fishing spots. It is tucked back in a nice neighborhood but easily accessible to Bokeelia. We had a group of 6 and everyone slept soundly and comfortably. I especially loved the porch off the master where I read my book while lounging on the plush chaise and gazing at the lovely view out of the window. Would use this house as a hideaway from the hustle and bustle any day!
Owner's Response: Thank you for taking the time to do a review.

Reviews from people who have actually stayed in our home will give prospective guests a true picture of what we have to offer.

I am so pleased you all enjoyed your stay and i look forward to welcoming you again.

This was our first time booking through HomeAway. Consequently, we asked Iain many questions, but were quickly put at ease with the email exchanges. Everything was as he said, and then some!

About the property -- beautiful! If we owned a vacation home, we would have it the exact same way. From the excellent location and great curb appeal, to the well-maintained and loved interior and furnishings, no details were forgotten. The place was impeccably clean. Everything worked -- internet, tv, appliances -- we even used the oven to make dessert one night. The pool was great for taking a dip, and we took full advantage of the bbq and eating outdoors in the screened living space. All this, and I haven't even mentioned the neighborhood with the view of the lake from out in back of the property, the amazing wildlife (Anhinga and Osprey living among the community), the walk-able/bike-able quiet streets, the close proximity to the marina and Calusa Indian park/reserve and bike path, and friendly neighbors. We drove around Pine Island and saw several neighborhoods, but none were as nicely manicured as this one.

We would highly recommend this to anyone interested in a warm-climate retreat. We hope to be back soon!! Thank you Iain for your great service!
Owner's Response: Thank you for your great review, i really appreciate the feedback.

We keep the house in tip top condition and we are constantly updating as required.

I see you enjoyed the wildlife and i agree it is amazing. We regulary see Otters, Armadillos, Alligators (only in the lake), Tortoise, Turtles, Osprey's and numerous birds, to name a few.

I am pleased you enjoyed a good service, i run a business in the UK and customer service is paramount to us there, i have tried to adopt this attitude with our vacation home. My feelings are that if we look after you and make the booking process easy and efficient along with a lovely home when you arrive you will re-book and recommend your friends.

I'm glad you will consider staying again and i look forward to welcoming you.

We stayed at this property in early April. We had an amazing time. The house was everything we had hoped and more. The listing was accurate. From the very first moment we contacted the owner, he was professional and very accommodating. He always replied quickly to emails and answered any questions we had.

We loved the house. It was beautiful, spacious, and quiet. There were many places to relax throughout the house. The pool was very nice and we ate our dinners in the screened-in lanai.

The other reviews say many of the things I would say. Pine Island is a special place. We love the peace and quiet. There is a lot of wildlife to enjoy. This property is a wonderful place to relax, unwind and to enjoy a beautiful piece of Florida. I am so grateful the owners are willing to open their home for others to enjoy. I would highly recommend this place to family and friends and I hope that we can return as well.

Toronto, Canada.
Owner's Response: I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and you found dealing with me easy. I think that a quick response to your questions and a speedy booking process is important and we try to make this easy for all our guests.

Pine Island is a real Gem of a place and i am glad you thought so.

I hope to welcome you again in the future.

Paradise in Pine Island

5 of 5
Submitted: January 31, 2012 Stayed: January 2012
We wanted to go somewhere a little warmer than our home in Sunset Beach, N.C. and we hit the "jackpot"! This home had everything you could possibly need in a vacation home...privacy...awesome views...golf course within two blocks...lime tree right outside your door...beautiful places to walk...and best of all a very cozy home that undeniably the owner has put a lot of love and care into. There were many places in the house that one could go and sit and have your own private time...and...each of them with a fantastic view. Or you could sit at the dining room table, breakfast room or down stairs in the linai and play a game, work on a puzzle, use your computer...or just chill!

There is a lot to do on Pine Island and we did it all! We loved it so much that we wanted to stay longer but the house was unavailable so we found several others, but none compared to this one so we returned home and are looking forward to going back next year not just for two weeks but a month!

The owner was very responsive to all of our needs and was very easy to stay in touch with by email if we had any questions or concerns! This is truly their "Paradise" that they are graciously willing to share with others!
Owner's Response: We appreciate all comments and we think this gives a perfect description of "our paradise". Although it is our own vacation home we make sure that it meets the needs of our guests. We have made it so that it has a personal touch but without any family "clutter".
We appreciate it when guests return (and most do) as this is a perfect endorsement of our home.
We look forward to seeing you next year.

We love this part of Florida, this property is a little gem. Lots of space, lovely furniture very clean and well maintained.Everything you need. Fantastic outdoor space with screened lanai great for a barbeque.The owner is good to work with and very helpful. What we enjoyed most of all was the lake. Wildlife Paradise! We woke up one morning to see otters playing on the lawn in front of the pool. There's always lots of different birds and butterflies even the odd turtle. We fished the lake a few times my husband landed his first tarpon. We 100% recommend this house and would definately stay again on our next visit to Pine Island
Owner's Response: I am pleased you enjoyed and witnessed the amazing wildlife on Pine Island.
You have highlighted the outdoor space and this is what Florida is all about, glad you had a great stay and i look forward to welcoming you again.

Beautiful and Relaxing Bokeelia, FL

My wife and I truly enjoyed our stay at the Bokeelia, FL home. The house was "AS ADVERTISED". It has a nice pool located on a small golf course on Pine Island. The owner was so cooperative. He was so helpful with recommendations for local resturants, directions to the house, etc. It was great to get that type of information prior to our vacation. If you are an outdoors person, this is a great spot. One can fish, play golf, or just relax by the pool at the house. Pine Island is not the typical Florida place. It is slow paced, natural settings, and relatively small amount of development. Very nice!

We would recommend this house to anyone. It is well stocked with all the cooking items one may need. The house itself is very spacious, open and sunny. Super outdoor screened in area by pool. Great for entertaining.
