Awesome location

This property was perfect for our spring break trip. House was everything and more as in descriptions. Perfect amount of space, with everything you need. From kayaks to paddle board to games in the garage there was plenty to do on property. There was also a water park across the lake and mini golf and bowling close by. Stu and Cathy responded almost instantly to any question we had.

Great for large families

This home was in a great location on Lake Kennedy and had plenty of space for our large family. It fit our needs perfectly. The home was very clean and well stocked. The kids enjoyed the outdoor space and pool. The communication with the host was exceptional and they even were able to get us in the home a little early since we arrived in town that morning. Would definitely recommend!

Great family vacation

We had a great vacation with our family of 11. We had 6 adults and 5 children, 7 to 6 months. We had plenty of room to roam around the house, the pool was nice and warm and we used the screen lanai for all our meals and game playing at night. The garage has air hockey and shuffleboard. The older kids enjoyed that!

Great Stay @ Shell Topia

We had a great stay in Cape Coral with 14 family members comfortably fitting in this great house. Home was very clean and pool/hot tub were great. Caught some nice fish off the dock which kept the kids busy! We loved the screened in porches for coffee in the morning. Convenient location, we tried out Fort Meyers Beach, Sanibel, Captiva, and Venice Beach! Had a great time trying out different places. Stu was fantastic and even made sure we got in the property early. Will stay at one of their properties again!!

Great place to unwind

Very spacious rooms, outdoor areas with ample seating. Enjoyed the games, pool and hot tub. Hot tub seats 3-4 adults comfortably. The 2 refrigerators were nice especially keeping beverages chilled. A bit challenging for 9 adults in beds, the twin beds/ bunk beds and the couch are great for kids. Plenty of bed linens, towels and beach gear. The hosts really thought of everything to make our vacation the best!

A Great Getaway

The home had just the vibe we were looking for and fit our group of 6 adults and 5 children perfectly. The pool alongside the waterfront was wonderful and the hot tub was nice and hot! We didn't get to kayaking or fishing as hoped, but the amenities were available. Even though we brought our own, five stars for having a Scrabble game and baby walker! We were pleasantly surprised by so many little things that made the stay away from home more comfortable. Highly recommend!

Better than expected!

We stayed at ShellTopia with 3 families, age ranging from 2.5-43 years old. Everyone loved it! The pool was our favorite part, but the views did not disappoint. The location was quick and easy to get to from the airport. The host was amazing, and anytime we needed to get ahold of him he was very quick to respond. The rooms were spacious and the kids loved the bunk room! Lots of room, a wonderful home away from home. We would recommend this house to anyone and would definitely stay here again! Amazing!!!

First family vacation

The house was very nice and the common area with the kitchen in the living room or part space for all of us. It was perfect. He had a problem with the heat the first four days which was very hard because we were all very cold. The weather wasn’t cooperating. The highlight of the trip for the property for us was the hot tub.!! because the weather was so cold. The pool couldn’t keep up being heated… love the garage area with the air hockey and shuttle board. That was a lot of fun for us and a large living room where we could all gather.!!

Paradise on the Lake

Our family was looking for a place to feel the sunshine and enjoy the outdoors amidst a long winter and this place delivered on every level. We used everything Stu and Cathy provided from the pool toys, fishing gear, bikes, kayaks and ample outdoor seating. The inside of the house is beyond spacious but quite frankly the majority of the time we spent outside. The setup of the property is very private and because you aren’t in a resort setting it truly was the peace and quiet we were seeking. The neighborhood was also great with shopping and dining nearby. We golfed at the course about a mile from the property and rented a full set of clubs for only $10! Highly recommend!
