Gorgeous Florida Coastal Renovation, Steps to the Sugar Sand Beach of FMB!

We are back and better than ever following Hurricane Ian!

The Sea at Ocean Palms Retreat is a beautifully renovated 1 bedroom, 1 bath 1st floor apartment located mid island in a tranquil neighborhood. Two blocks to the beach mid way between two beach access points. Hotel style linens and towels to complement the plush pillow top mattress.

Canal views from the windows. Manatee, dolphin and palm trees galore from your kitchen, dining, living room and balcony of your unit. Fully equipped kitchens with a Keurig Coffee Machine, additional seating for guests, Rain Shower heads and spa shower panels where equipped. High speed internet, WiFi, Alexa, streaming music and lookup features, 4k streaming smart TV, coded door locks and smart thermostat capabilities, Remote fan and light controls, Recessed lighting with dimmer controls add to the mood setting enjoyment of your stay.

Mid-Island white sugar sand beaches are the cleanest on the island. The shells in your unit were collected by us, locally on the beaches you will visit.

Estero Island has numerous restaurants and night life for your choosing, and you are in the middle of it all location-wise. Water activities abound, with fishing charters, scuba and snorkel adventures, jet ski rentals, parasailing and other close by things to do.
Fort Myers, Bonita Springs and Naples are all modern cities with plenty of shopping, dining and sightseeing to experience. The South West International Airport in Fort Myers is close by for convenience as well.

While the beach is as inviting as ever, please note that the Fort Myers Beach area is rebounding from Hurricane Ian and not all amenities are available yet. Construction and rebuilding is present on the island and moving fast. The current status of restaurants and other amenities on the island is in a state of change and island amenities may not be available or operating.

Cozy, clean, convenient, cute
We live in Fort Myers and got this cute place to have a hub near the beach, it was awesome! Quiet neighborhood, 5' walk to beach, I missed the dishwasher and dryer for towels, but it was only one of us staying over, we didn't cook, just took food in and had a few drinks. We will be doing this again on the next family visit.

nice but
Very nice place, close walking distance to beach. Not exactly as pictured, no privacy fence, no coffee pot, no living room chair, no hair dryer, no nightstands by the bed, I realize some of this is because of hurricane Ian. Also, refrigerator was very noisy. We stayed for 9 days just my husband and I, it was the right size for the two of us.

Quick Getaway
Overall the experience was great! The location was awesome and the unit is very cozy, however the couch (sleeper) needs to be replaced. You really can’t sit on the couch because it bows in so much, but other then that the managing company was excellent with communication and everything was clean and exactly as described!

ok for the price
This place was adequate and was away from all the activity which is what we wanted. The Publix was 1 mile from us and that was a plus. The unit itself was ok. It says renovated but the bed was very uncomfortable with a bad sag in the middle. Neither of us slept well on it. There was no place in the shower to put shampoo so things had to sit on the shower floor and also no hooks anywhere to hang a bathrobe or anything. the light switch to the bedroom was outside of the bedroom so it was inconvenient to have to get out of bed to turn out the light. This could be a nicer place to stay with some very basic things that aren't costly...like hooks, shelf on the shower wall, and definately a comfortable bed. It wasn't overly priced so that was a plus.

Would not recommend this property to anyone.
First off dirty for us. Second not enough towels or utensils but did get some when complained. The electric went out and we had hundreds of ants. The screened in patio was disgusting. No place to put our clothes. No dressers nothing. Ended up washing every other day. We should get a refund. Also left three days earlier. Never again.

Pet friendly, walked to the beach. Neighbors in the area where very friendly.
Perfect for two adults. Very clean, plenty of towels and linen. Having coffee there (for two days) was a plus not having to rush out to get any. Could have used a small dresser since we were there for a week, so we utilized the bench in the closet area for our suitcases. Great shower!

The Sea at Ocean Palms Retreat - Estero Island
Our stay at The Sea at Ocean Palms Retreat was great! We had everything we needed there and it was very clean and nicely decorated. We loved the screened in patio facing the marina to wake up to and have our coffee in. The beach was only about a 7 minute walk away and we were out of the hustle and bustle of Fort Myers so it felt very calm and relaxing. The owner of The Sea at Ocean Palms Retreat was very communicative and I felt like if I needed to ask a question or needed anything during my stay I could reach out and ask no problem. I would highly recommend staying here!
