Frequently Asked Questions

Important note to Airbnb travel guests about the cleaning/housekeeping fee: 
 
This is a combination of the actual cleaning/housekeeping fee, modest booking fee, and state & local taxes, and not the cleaning fee exclusively.
 
Our cleaning/housekeeping fees vary based on size of property, number of bedrooms & bathrooms, pool patio homes, garages, etc. They typically range between $125-$325 based on the aforementioned.

The booking fee is $89. 
 
Airbnb does not currently allow hosts to itemize these fees on their site which is why we'd like to explain what otherwise appears to be an excessive cleaning fee expense. 
 
Thank You,
Management

Trip
5/5 stars
We did enjoy our stay. Pros very clean unit fully stocked. I would suggest adding a flashlight because we lost power. It was very quiet. Any issues I had in the unit were addressed immediately. Negatives were major construction in front of building that we were unaware of. They started at 7am and went all day. Toward the end of our stay elevator was not working. We were on the fourth floor and it was tough dragging three suitcases down the stairs. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
- Kim
Awesome place to stay
5/5 stars
We loved the clean, updated , and beautifully decorated condo! It was perfect for us! Very secure and private too! The only thing we would recommend is a ceiling fan in the living room and bedrooms to circulate the air !! We use ceiling fans at home and it keeps our home cooler too. We are just used to them so we think they would be a nice addition to the lovely condo!!! Other than that, it was just perfect!!! We absolutely loved staying there and we want to stay again!!
- Susan

Very impressed
5/5 stars
This condo was so beautiful. Everything was extremely clean. The owners were very easy to contact, very prompt with responses. They provided beach towels, sand toys, and beach chairs. Very quiet building and location too. The pool water was very warm (it was cold weather the week we were there). Overall, the place was very comfortable and homey.
- Emily

The new owners have completely remodelled and redecorated the space, and provided everything they could think of to create the perfect beach getaway! As a management company, we pride ourselves in our housekeeping and guest relations, so we were very happy to hear that both of those things met and exceeded your expections. You were a pleasure to host and we welcome you back at any time!

Good accommodations, great location, wonderful management team!
5/5 stars
The accommodation was good and the organization and communication of the landlord in advance was excellent. The location of the accommodation was impressive and also the distance to supermarkets and Fort Myers Beach is convenient and relatively close if you are driving. We saw dolphins from the beach and the proximity to Lovers Key was great. The decor could be a bit more modern, but overall we felt very comfortable with 6 people (2 adults, 1 teenager, 3 kids). The equipment was such that we could live well. WiFi is great. Pool is great. Beach is great
- Daniel

Daniel - thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! We are so happy to hear your family enjoyed their vacation at this ideally located beach condo. We want all of our guests to feel welcome and at home; we work hard to provide accommodations and amenities that will make that the case! The condo is definitely in a great location for access to the beach & grocery stores; and not a far drive from Fort Myers Beach. Thank you again for your kind feedback! We hope you will return again!

Perfect Location
5/5 stars
This was a lovely condo. It was very clean and offered several amenities such as beach chairs and a beach wagon, which made loading up for a day on the beach very easy! The view from the patio/deck is stunning. Not only can you see the ocean and lovers key but it overlooks a bird sanctuary as well. The patio extends from the living room down to the master suite. It was perfect being at the south end of Estero and having a more secluded and relaxing beach experience, while still being minutes from restaurants and shops. Everything in the condo was modern and decorated nicely. The kitchen had every utensil needed to prepare dinner and lunch during our stay. The condos pool was also clean and very relaxing. The tiki huts outside of Castle Beach were so cute and perfect for watching the sunset from. We had a great stay and am definitely looking forward to our next trip.
- Savannah

Hi Savannah - thank you so much for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed a relaxing and refreshing getaway in this condo located in the perfect location on the beach.

Castle Beach #405
5/5 stars
We absolutely loved our stay in Ft.Myers Beach. Since it was our first time here, we weren't really sure what to expect. The condo and entire area did not disappoint. Our trip started off with the wedding of a family friend, which was beautiful. The rest of our time was spent just being tourists and enjoying as much of the time in the Sun as possible. Lots of great memories were made! .
- Dwight

Hello Dwight - thank you so much for your review! We are so happy to hear of the wonderful vacation you and your family had. The area and beaches are certainly beautiful and have lots to do. We are glad to know you all enjoyed your trip and make memories together. We want all of our guests to feel welcomed and relaxed on their vacations with us, and it sounds like you had just that.

Okay for Our Purposes
3/5 stars
We stayed at this location for 5 nights. Overall, it was fine for what we needed, essentially a place to sleep and shower. If we had our kids with us, we’d definitely choose a different location or one of the resorts. The condo can sleep 6, but I think it would be really tight with 6 adults. It was perfect for 2 of us. POSITIVES It was quiet and really private. There was no one on the beach down by us and you can find some really nice shells. They provided one of those collapsible wagons so you can easily haul all your stuff to the beach. Finally, you are right next to Lovers Key State Park and beach. NEGATIVES It is definitely an older building. There were holes that were never repaired in the wall from where someone tried to hang the tv, but then took it down in the master bedroom. Also, the beach chairs that were provided were broken. The tv remote batteries were out and the sheets and mattress pads were stained. So in general, it was not the best maintained property. Sadly, it was not close enough to the ocean to hear the waves, but the view was still pretty. The beach is not soft, combed sand so wear your shoes as you walk out there. Also, the current at that beach was strong, so I’d be really careful with my kids at that beach, but that could have been the day we were there. Finally, it is very far from the restaurants and shops (the few there are) in Fort Myers Beach. On the map it is only about 7 miles, but there is only one road that gets you there and we were told by our Uber drivers that during peak season it can take up to an hour and a half to get to the main area! We spent $15 to $20 per ride to the main area. There are no restaurants or bars around this condo that are in walking distance. And there is no place nearby to rent a bike.
- Erin

Hi Erin – thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re glad you enjoyed your vacation! We put a lot of time into writing detailed property descriptions and hire a professional photographer for each of our properties in order to most accurately portray the location and accommodations. Many guests book this condo on the south end of the island looking for a more quiet & relaxing getaway on the private beach, while still being in close proximity to the main attractions and events on the main part of Fort Myers Beach. There are a handful of activities and 6 restaurants within a .6 mile walk of the condo, including the beach trolley mentioned in the description which makes a stop within that walk. Unfortunately, we were not aware of the broken beach chairs or the dead batteries. We would have loved the opportunity to take care of those items for you had we been made aware during your stay. Thank you again, and we will make every effort to correct those items for future guests!

Gorgeous views
5/5 stars
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the condo! The owners did a fantastic job providing a fully stocked unit with everything we needed right down to sand toys and beach chairs! The welcome basic from Bret at itrip was also a welcoming touch that we appreciated! We spent time traveling to several beaches only to find that the best shelling experience was had at Castle Beachs private beach!!!! The only thing that left us scratching our heads was that there were 3 conflicting sets of checkout instructions in regards to laundry. We highly recommend the condo and management company!!!
- Stacy

We are thrilled you had a great time Stacy and thank you for your review! We appreciate the opportunity to accommodate you and your family and welcome you to stay with us again in the future. Thank you also for the feedback on the cleaning instructions and we'll revise such in our software promptly. Wishing you and yours all the best!
