Welcome to Tropical Palms Villa, a luxury 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom wheelchair accessible vacation home in sunny Southwest Florida! Our Villa allows visitors to relax in privacy and enjoy today's modern conveniences in a custom-designed home, while enjoying the outdoor feel of a five-star tropical resort. Located in beautiful Cape Coral where the sun shines over 300 days a year, our West-facing Villa ensures that guests will enjoy nearly all-day sun along with beautiful sunsets over the canal.
Our backyard oasis gives you numerous options for enjoying all-day sun. Go for a dip in our award-winning, heated, salt-water pool, enjoy a drink under the Tiki hut at the swim-up pool bar, relax in the spacious spa, or have a good old-fashioned barbecue on our outdoor grill. Our new outdoor tv ensures that you won't miss a big game or your favorite tv show while you're out sunning yourself on the lanai or relaxing in the spa. For a change of pace, head down to our private dock, where you can look for sea otters swimming by, spot pelicans diving for fish, waive to passing boaters, or kick back and relax in style on one of the many deck chairs. If you're into fishing, try casting your fishing rod into the canal and see what happens. Numerous guests have had surprising success fishing off of the dock. Fishing poles are provided at the house. Want to bring your own small boat and tie it to the dock, or rent a boat for a day? While possible, please contact us for more info PRIOR to booking (note there is NO Gulf access from the house).
The entertainment options are not just limited to the outdoors though. Inside Tropical Palms Villa, our spacious Great Hall and kitchen area offers a great gathering place for friends or family to enjoy a night of entertainment. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the cooking ware you need to enjoy the comforts of home, along with a Keurig, a 12-cup coffee pot a Ninja blender, a microwave, and an air fryer.

Grab a book off the shelf and enjoy it out on the lanai or on the dock, and if you're not finished when you leave, feel free to take it home with you (but please leave another book in its place).

A basketball and both tennis and pickleball rackets and balls are provided at the house for guest use while at the house.

If you are a tech enthusiast, you will get a kick out of all the smart features offered at the home. There are several Amazon Alexa devices around the property that enable you to control our many smart devices without having to get up out of your chair or get out of bed. You can change the temperature on the thermostat, lock any of the outside doors, close the garage doors, turn on/off any of the 15 smart light switches in the house, or control either of the lanai ceiling fans – all by voice! A one-page "cheat sheet" of Alexa commands is provided., so even if you find technology intimidating, you will be amazed at how simple it is to control these devices around the home by voice. Of course, if you don't want to, all of these devices can also be controlled manually just like any other light switch, thermostat, garage door opener, etc.
