Hideout just out of Sanibel & Ft Myers Beach traffic Private heated pool

11332A Summerwinds Ct, Ft Myers FL 33908 Grandma and Grampa's private oasis. My Uncle Dean Hendryx picked this duplex 3/4 of the way down Summerwinds Court(11332A) cul de sac because it's close to Ft Myers Beach(4.3 miles) and Sanibel Island(9 miles). San Carlos Boulevard and Summerlin Road intersection are just a few blocks away. The pool is open with a new screen room.-See the 2025 walkthru video.

This comes with Dish TV and great WIFI. But you're not stuck in bumper to bumper beach/bridge traffic. You can head a couple miles to the beach or head to shopping, golf, and inland attractions. Go ride the airboats. Deep sea fish. You can fly in and ride the trolley to the beach for 75 cents. The walk to the trolley behind Walmart is a pretty good hike. Maybe 6 blocks? Walk to the ice cream shop or breakfast restaurants. When we inherited the property Dean had shown my family all the possibilities for Spring training Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins baseball, biking, wildlife watching, shelling, boating, golfing, airboat rides, seafood restaurants and that head bobbing Reggae music. The new Margaritaville is 4 miles down and huge. We boated to islands and shelled where few people go. A deep sea boat called "The Getaway" took us on a relaxing deep sea fishing trip. And if you're a little wild, take the "Key West Express" on a fast ride to Key West for a day or two. Baseball spring training games with the Boston Red Sox and Minnesota Twins. Check out the restaurants on the way to Sanibel.
When you're done come back to Summerwinds Hideaway. Cookout. Hang by the pool with the party lights and big tv. The neighborhood out front is "typical Florida". It's NOT a gated community. Excellent breakfast a few blocks away. There is a fence, trees and shed that provide some privacy
The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. A large living room with 2 couches all new. The master bedroom has it's own bathroom, tub and shower. The second bedroom has a new queen bed. The second bathroom by the pool has a nice shower. There's a washer, dryer and freezer in the utility room. This place works for a small family or maybe two couples. No pets are allowed. Bring charcoal and lighter fluid for the Weber grill.
If you are looking for an affordable place to venture out from, Summerwinds Hideaway may be just right for you! Only 25% of rent plus fees to reserve . Reserve your dates now!

Great stay

This was a cute little duplex. The owners have been remodeling and there were a few things not finished but nothing that prevented us from enjoying the property and the heated pool. Communication was good with the owner. The only “draw back” for us was that this was a duplex which I didn’t realize when we rented and the owner lives next door.. It was a tiny bit awkward feeling but the people were super nice! I would probably stay again.

If the walls could talk, I think they'd share happy memories of a sweet family. I felt the owners of this property were inviting us into their family's special vacation home for us to make our memories there too.

Summerwinds are Blowin In

This is a great house. Heated pool was a hit with plenty of AC inside. Strategically located near Ft. Myers Beach and Sanibel Island. Will book this place again the next time I’m in the area! Try El Sabor De Puebla (past Love Boat Ice Cream (also Fantastic) but on the left hand side). Not only is it 110% Authentic, it’s 110% Delicious.

Great pool house and location

House is a bit outdated and beds not too comfortable, however everything else made up for it. The pool was great, it was clean, the AC worked great. I would go back and stay here.

Perfect!

Stayed here with my wife and kids and it couldn’t have been more perfect! The house has everything you could need, it’s comfortable, and it’s close to everything. The pool was really great and it got a lot of use from all of us. Lots to do in the area which is a bonus. We’d definitely stay here again!

Perfect little drive to the beach

Overall, it was great, older kids loved the pool! Location is perfect to get away from the downtown traffic, but close enough to the beach, plenty of stores near the house. Bedrooms are outdated, but this did not bother us that much. Lots of ants inside the house! by the entryway and around the sink. Have to wash your dishes immediately or sink will be swarmed with ants.

Home away from home

This lovely get away is a great location by all the beaches. Went to 7 different beaches in 7 days and all nearby Lover's Key, Barefoot Beach, Sanibel....The pool was great. The house had everything needed even beach chairs and cooler. The owner was prompt to answer questions. Hope to return again.

Awesome property

We stayed at this property for a short girls weekend and it was perfect. The pool and lanai area has a tv, Bluetooth speaker and mini fridge and there is a door that leads directly into the bathroom. We ended up doing very little sightseeing because we enjoyed lounging in the pool so much!! There is a Publix and Wal Mart very close and it’s 3 miles to the beach. We would absolutely stay here again!

Great spot for a family!

We had a wonderful stay at this house! The pool area was awesome, with lots of floaties and toys for the kids. It was so nice to have a table outside to eat al fresco in the beautiful FL weather as well. There were plenty of towels and blankets, which was great. It was a 15-30 minute drive to the beach, depending on traffic, so that wasn’t bad. Gary was great to work with and worked with us to have an early arrival and late departure, which made the trip so much more relaxing. All in all, I would definitely recommend this house to either families or couples!
