This is a VACATION RENTAL only. Owner will not consider annual rentals. Weekly rentals are welcome. Villa Manatee is a 3-bedroom, 2 & 1/2-bathroom home located on a Gulf access canal in the quiet south east of Cape Coral and offers a relaxed and cozy atmosphere on 2,000 SF living area. The porch/lanai is oriented to the south and therefore offers sunbathers ideal conditions to work on their desired, tropical tan and admire the colorful Florida sunsets. Lush palm trees and ornamental shrubs are creating privacy in the pool/lanai area. Living Room/Den: From the entrance of the house you walk right into the den with its comfortable recliner chairs. The great room offers two leather couches and a spectacular view of the lanai/pool area through the wide glass sliding door. Kitchen/Dining Room: Make your meals in the fully-equipped kitchen with breakfast bar that offers seating for two. On the other side of the kitchen is a dining area with seating for four.

Guest Bedrooms/Bathrooms: The other two guest bedrooms featuring a Queen and two Twin beds, and two bathrooms are at the opposite side of the house. Lanai/Pool/Dock: Outside, right next to the extra wide kitchen window you will find under the canopy roof a dining table for six. Two sun loungers and, of course, the solar heated pool will help you to de-stress. You can also spend quiet hours at the sun deck along the Gulf access canal and work on your Florida tan.

And just in case you want to dive into action, the 5-mile-long Del Prado Boulevard with its variety of shopping centers, restaurants downtown nightlife and bars is just 5 minutes away by car.
