Villa Blue Chair Bay

Wir sind gleich doppelt zufrieden. Während unserem Aufenthalt in der wunderschönen Villa Gretchen haben wir, mit Iras kompetenter Unterstützung, ein schönes Grundstück am Wasser mit Südausrichtung gefunden. Der Preis war wirklich gut. Wir spielen mit dem Gedanken uns noch ein weiteres Grundstück zuzulegen.

A friend of mine recommended Ira and Harold to us when we were looking for a vacation home in Cape Coral. Perfect! We had a great time at the Villa Gretchen. The home was very nice and met all our needs. And, we are looking forward to returning next year to the T-Bird.

Thank you for the opportunity to vacation in your beautiful rental home. Tonnie was respectful & responsive & our daughter sure loved meeting your dog! Your home was bright & clean & had most anything we would want tight here. We used the pool a few times, enjoyed the lanai for reading, loved the proximity to shopping in restaurants & your cape Coral location allowed us to travel back & forth to Fort Myers beach easily… As well as take a couple other excursions to Naples & Sanibel/Captiva. We really enjoyed our time together as a family and we are grateful for you & your home!

We look forward to next year.

Ira and Harald,

Thank you so much for allowing us the honor of staying in + enjoying Villa Gretchen. We absolutely loved everything about the home-away from home-vibe. You stocked the home with, literally, all of the basic necessities + then some! I’ve done my fair share of traveling and this is by far one of the best places we have stayed. We are beyond grateful.

We loved staying in here in Cape Coral. The memories we made here are unforgetable. It was nice to get away from all the covid craziness and relax. We had an amazing time in Sansibel Island. From basking in the sun, collecting shells, swimming in the pool and ocean, watching the sunset and biking around were all very fun and enjoyable. We would love to come here again, next time bringing the whole family! As much as we hate to leave, we still had a wonderful time. We wish you all the best!

Until the next time!

Harald and Ira,

Please know how much we`ve enjoyed our stay / down time here in „Blue Chair Bay“! We had a slow start, but what a beautiful and relaxing area to quarantine in! You know we enjoyed the patio area (+Pool!!) just sitting, reading and napping. From the minute we walked in the door, with home lit up and snacks & drinks waiting, it has been great.

You are the perfect Host and Hostess! Thank you for being so attentive to us for anything we needed! Hopefully we`ll be able to continue our winter getaways back here in „Blue Chair Bay“! Until then, Best Wishes to you both in 2022 and keep up the good work!

Hallo liebe Ira,

Vielen Dank für die Unterstützung und das Du uns diesen super Aufenthalt ermöglicht hast. Wir sind glaube ich echte „Cape Coral Fans“ geworden.
Uns hat es an nichts gefehlt, das Haus war einfach Spitze. Wir haben einen guten Eindruck bekommen und können jetzt verstehen, was das Leben hier so lebenswert macht.

Vielen Dank.

Harald & Ira,

It has been a joy to spend the month at Villa T-Bird. The house is absolutely beautiful and well maintained. We were told by several people walking by that the landscaping catches their eye.
We couldn`t ask for better hosts, as you went above and beyond to accommodate us. We always enjoy spending time with you and we`re looking forward to coming back to the neighborhood next year.

You`re the best!

Mike and Cherie Nasto

Harald + Ira,

Thank you for our wonderful stay at Blue Chair Bay!

The pool was always the perfect temperature & it was so much watching the boats, ducks + people on the canal. We especially enjoyed the huge and luxurious king-size bed!
I spent a lot of time in the „reading room“. Wonderful! Your appliances are always top match and we appreciate that.

Thanks, Ira for your shopping an restaurant tips. We look forward to next year at Villa T-Bird.

Thanks for everything!

Liebe Ira, lieber Harald,

vielen Dank für Eure Gastfreundlichkeit. Wir haben uns in der Villa T-Bird sehr wohl gefühlt. Der Ausflug mit Capt.- John und den Delfinen war wunderschön, paradiesische Strände und traumhafte Momente. Auch die Empfehlungen der Bar’s und Restaurant’s: Bahama Breeze & The Boathhouse Tiki Bar (tolle Lage) waren top, super Cocktails und leckeres Essen. Für Seafoodfan’s können wir auch Lobster Lady empfehlen.

Bis ganz bald!

Knut & Kathrin mit Kids Helena & Alexander

My stay here was wonderful. It was just myself. My granddaughter came for a visit a couple times. We have fond memories together by the pool and playing monopoly! I’ve stayed in several different placeses here in the Cape, this for me is top 5! Thank you very much!

Lawry Jian

Totally enjoyed this wonderful home with its tasteful decor and furnishings inside and out!

Perfect location, so centralized! It’s almost like 15 minutes to here or there! Everywhere.

The Edison Ford Museum was great, very informative and reminds one just how much of a genius Edison was.

The Twisted Lobster looks like a hole in the wall to drive by. BUT inside they serve any kind of seafood you want and all delicious!

Life is short, glad we spent part of it here!
