About this villa rental

Situated in Cape Coral, this attractive villa for $284 per night is a fantastic option for your next vacation. The Arabella ranch home is located on almost two acres of land in a quiet neighborhood, nestled amongst numerous old trees in a pristine scenery. Stores and restaurants are only 5 – 10 minutes away by car. Arabella is not a typical vacation home, it looks like more a ranch house in Wyoming, Wisconsin, Texas or so. But don’t take a look only to the outside of the house. You have to see it from Inside. As soon you open the entrance door on the porch, you will be surrounds by modern comfort ... ... and luxury. It features decor that is welcoming and inviting. On the other side, the house gives you a lot of privacy – more than every other vacation house at Cape Coral. Situated on 1,9 acres of land, you know that neighbors are there, but you don’t have to see them. An upscale house in the middle of the nature – big trees, bushes and singing birds. The Arabella was creating as a modern oasis. The porch, which is typical for this traditional building style, features tables, chairs and a large swing that invite you to linger. Relax on the swing and enjoy the peace and quiet in an otherwise noisy world. Once you enter the home, you’ll find the interior to be a showcase for luxurious living in contemporary style. Decorations and individual accent pieces were hand-selected to further enhance this feeling. The Arabella property includes the main house with about 6,500 SF of living area stretched out across two floors with 5 bedrooms and the adjacent guest Apartment featuring kitchen, living / dining area, bedroom and bath. The first floor of the Arabella ranch home includes a large gourmet kitchen with center island and breakfast bar, as well as a dining room with seating for 12. There’s also a modern lounge with TV, a spacious living room with an original wood burning fireplace (please do not use), another, smaller dining nook, plus two bedrooms and a bath. A wooden staircase leads from the foyer to the upper floor, which has glass balustrades and opens the view into the living room below. The master suite is located upstairs, as well as two additional bedrooms, a bath, a den with glass floor and a game room with TV and bar. A wide balcony of about 800 SF stretches along the back of the home from the master suite, offering sitting areas and lounge chairs. The main building offers 9 TVs and another 2 TVs can be found in the guest apartment. Nobody will have to miss their favorite show. The service is by Direct TV and one of the sets even offers German programming. The south facing patio has an area of around 2,150 SF and provides an inviting sitting area with panorama screen and views of unspoiled nature all around. The pool and the adjacent spa, which holds up to 12 people, are both gas heated. A gas grill is also available for the barbecue at night. This one-of-a-kind property is an oasis of peace and quiet for vacationers who want to get far away from their stressful daily life. The Location: The Arabella Ranch is located in the north-east area of Cape Coral. This is not the area where normally the vacation houses are. But don’t’ think it’s too far away from everything. The grocery store Publix are 5 minutes by car. On the Pine Island Road within around 10 minutes by car you will find stores like Aldi / BJ / Target Super Store / Walmart / Burlington / Starbucks / Panera Bread / Bed Bath and Beyond / Subway / Mc Donald’s and and and. There are also a lot of Restaurants like Olive Garden, Carrabba’s, Golden Coral, Outback Steakhouse, Chipotle, Mel’s Diner Chili’s, Bone Fish Grill, Mexican, Chinese, Cuban and a variety of fast food eateries as well. The Arabella gives you the same lifestyle as other vacation homes and much more. For your comfort, you will find the following equipment in the vacation homes in Cape Coral managed by us: detergent, cleaning products and dish washing sponge Filling up the dishwasher detergent, the dishwasher taps, the coffee filter and the garbage bags Cleaning products such as window cleaners, all-purpose cleaners and disinfectants Spare bulbs In the kitchen you will find various spices - e.g. salt and pepper Symposiums of the artist Mauro Reategui Perez: In the time from Aug. 5 - 13 we had the Peruvian artist Mauro Reategui Perez as a guest at the Arabella Ranch.

We were elated with our experience at Villa Arabella Ranch! We had six adults, four children, and a fur baby and had more than enough room for all of us! Brigitte was an outstanding host! She replied to any questions we had very promptly. She even had our fur baby a name tag made to commerate the vacation! We could not have had a better host or a more enjoyable stay. I highly recommend Villa Arabella Ranch for your vacation desires!

We made the best of our two week stay. The house was clean but had a horrendous smell of sulfur, not disclosed in VRBO description. We are a senior group and had trouble with the directions for the downstairs shower. Called host and was told a plumber would be coming. Called the next 4 days and was told a plumber would be coming. Come to find out, it was operator error, however, the plumber never showed up, a handyman never showed up and the downstairs guests went 4 days without a shower. Poor response to a simple request. The grill was dirty upon arrival. We cleaned it, used it once, and cleaned it. Called the host to say the tank was empty. Was told to go buy one and send her the receipt. Consequently was charged the $50 grill cleaning fee after telling VRBO I was only authorizing the gas and electricity bill of $833.19 for the 2 week stay. Ultimately, would not recommend this house.

Awful. Property had damage and 1 bedroom apartment was not safe to stay in do to broken window broken glass and mold. The main house master bathroom had sink water running into a bucket under the sink. This is not okay especially after a hurricane and declared National Disaster to take advantage of displaced individuals. Than only 5 of our group had gotten to Property at 7pm and we told the others do not come we are leaving in the morning, left by 11am and VRBO kept ???(not allowed to say how much apparently)of our money??? For what? This is so shameful to be taking advantage of us as we are trying to put back the pieces of our shattered lives and homes from Hurricane Ian. Pathetic VRBO.

This was our family's 13th family vacation that we have rented a home - NC, TN, GA, FL. This year included only our adult children and their spouses (8) and 3 of our dogs. We have in the past included our grandchildren but they are now grown with college, jobs, etc. This home was very large and all of us had our own space. The pool was great and neighborhood very quiet and great for walking the dogs. My children and I are all cooks so the spacious kitchens {in the main home and the upstairs condo} was great. We only had delivery on our last night. My only comment is that if you do cook then you will need to bring any spices or special small appliances. Otherwise the kitchens were very well equipped. There are remotes for all the extras - TV's, fans, pool, lights, etc. My suggestion, especially if have small children, is to keep them in place as not to get lost or misplaced. Thank you Brigitte for sharing your home. It was very clean, relaxing and you were a great host.

My family and I rented this house for a week in July. The outside of the house does need some TLC but the house is exactly as pictured except the couches in the living room are not the same as the pictures. The listing states there is a "guest house" included, however there is no access to it and the door is locked but there are lights on inside (we had to pay for electricity). Be prepared for a pretty high electric bill as well. We only cooked one night, and washed two loads of laundry aside from the towels you are required to wash, and the ac was always set to 74° when we was there and 78° when we weren't and our electric bill was $240 for the week. We only used the hot tub once and that charge was $20, so be prepared for the utility fees once you check out. Also, a very disappointing thing about the house is the listing says there is a grill, but if you use it-you will be charged $35, which is ridiculous because you pay a cleaning fee with the booking. And you are NOT allowed to sleep under the comforters in any of the bedrooms. You are only allowed to use small throw blankets and sleep on top of the comforter. and the comforters don't seem like they are washed after each guest. For the price you pay a night, it would of been nice to sleep on sheets and clean blankets. The communication with the owner was good, she did respond quickly to any issues we had. Overall, the house is beautiful but I personally won't rent another VRBO that doesn't include the electric and gas and doesn't allow you to sleep under the comforters.

We had an amazing stay. The house and amenities were as described. There was no need to heat the pool so we didn’t have that extra expense. Would definitely consider booking again.
