Congo Breeze was built to be a luxury vacation rental and you will sense it instantly upon walking into the front door. The common area is huge and has a bar area, pool table, and a new 75 inch wall-mounted Smart TV with premium sound. The common area has 90 degree sliding doors that open up completely and make the outdoor lanai area feel like an extension of the home. The surround sound system plays music through the common areas of the home and lanai.
Amazing, high ceilings throughout the home make it feel much larger than 3000 square feet. Note all the tray ceilings! The home has hard flooring throughout (no carpet) and we do not allow pets, so it is very allergy-friendly.
The lanai contains a gorgeous, large saltwater pool with a sun shelf that you can move a chair into to relax with your feet in the water and a book or drink in your hand. The pool also has a built-in table with seating which is perfect for drinks, card games, or both. We even provide a few waterproof decks of cards (and UNO and Spot-it) to help you get the most out of the table in the pool. Please note that we have a child safety fence for your use around the pool if desired. The lanai area also features a spa and heated outdoor shower! The lanai also includes bar stools by a window that opens up into the kitchen. The kitchen has high end appliances, loads of storage, and is well equipped.
What an amazing location! We are in the Yacht Club area and are only five minutes from the Caloosahatchee River which is your portal to amazing times at Sanibel Island, Estero Island, Captiva Island, or many other beautiful destinations! Boat rentals are readily available and we have a great boat lift. If you are interested in renting a boat during your vacation be sure to book early! Ask us about our rental boat! We have a 2016 24 foot NauticStar deck boat for rent through a local boat rental company. You can save $25 per night on the house for each day you rent the boat! Our lift is set up for this boat. One advantage to renting our boat is the GPS leaves bread crumbs from past trips. That makes it easier to get to the local destinations if you are not familiar with the area.
The home sits on a beautiful lot and has 120 feet of canal frontage. The frontage has a tiki hut, boat lift, a kayak launch (we provide a two-person kayak for you to use), and plenty of room to catch some sun on the lovely waterfront decking. We see manatees, sting rays, dolphins and many fish species in the canal!
We want you to come to our home to relax - your paradise awaits! No need to spend additional money or take up luggage space on supplies and paper products! We provide you with pretty much everything you need during your vacation – toilet paper, paper towel, dishwasher soap, dish soap, hand soap, shampoo/conditioner, body wash, laundry soap, tissues, and even some spices. We also provide coffee/filters/creamer. We provide four hair dryers (one for each bathroom) and we also have a scale for your use. We don't charge electricity fees or fees for extra guests either! We want you to be able to travel lightly and not worry about extra fees!
We have solar panels and that allows us to offer you no additional charges for electricity! You can ask us to set your ideal pool and spa temperature and we don't charge a pool heating fee. We also offer a ChargePoint EV charger for you to use at no extra charge. It can be used to charge any electric vehicle but may require an adaptor for certain vehicles. We provide an adaptor for Tesla.
We provide five adult bikes you can use to explore the area! One of them is 24 inches which is perfect for most teenagers. The local roads have a bike lane which makes biking easy and safe. The Yacht club is 1.9 miles away and makes a great biking destination.
There are two large master suites (king size beds) each with an attached bathroom which makes this home perfect for two families! There are three additional bedrooms, one with a king size bed, one with a queen, and one with two twin XL (longer so it fits adults) bunk beds. Each bedroom has its own wall mounted smart television except for the bunk bed bedroom. In addition, we have two comfortable air mattresses and bedding that you can use if need be.
High speed internet and over 100 television channels are provided for your enjoyment. We have multiple routers throughout the home to ensure great coverage in both the home and outdoor living areas. The WIFI signal is strong and can be accessed in the pool area and down at the canal frontage.
Congo Breeze has two central air conditioners and offers two variable adjustable zones. There is a full size laundry room with two washing machines and dryer for your use. We have an additional dryer in the garage, along with two drying racks for your convenience. Plenty of pool towels are provided.
Feel free to use the grill. You may have to refill the propane tank if it's empty. Please clean the grill after each use.
We have heard feedback from guests that they love staying at Congo Breeze because there is so much room and so much to do! The pool and lanai area are much larger than most places and we have surround sound music to make it feel like a resort. With ping pong, cornhole, billiards, etc... you could easily spend entire days at our house without needing to leave to spend money on entertainment.
Yacht Club less than 2 miles away!
Plenty of parking in the circular driveway.
Unique Benefits
Over 3000 square feet but feels much larger with the high ceilings and the outdoor living space. Huge sliders that open to truly make the lanai an extension of the home.
Why Kids Love It
The pool and spa are amazing and much larger than you typically find for a private pool. Fun games to play, plenty of room to run around.

TarahMy family just got home from 2 wonderful weeks at Congo Breeze! The house was very spacious which made traveling with 3 young children and grandparents happy, we had plenty of room to spread out. The location is the best we have ever stayed in Cape Coral, so close to restaurants downtown, tarpon point, the only beach on cape coral, parks, and easy access to the bridge. Mike and Patti were excellent hosts and very responsive, they kept the pool at the perfect temperature that even when temperatures dropped into the 50's my kids were still swimming! We hope to be back soon and even just recommended Congo Breeze to a family friend for next winter who saw all of our pictures! Thanks Mike and Patti!

Erin J.Beautiful home
This house is awesome! Since we stayed there they have changed it from a 12 person rental to an 8. I believe beds have been miscounted in their diagram. It slept 12 comfortably when we stayed. We loved the space this house had to offer!!!!

Sarah P.Amazing Family Vacation!! So Much Space and So Many Activities!!
Our family (ages 6 to 75) stayed at Congo Breeze for 10 days in May. We came to town to celebrate my oldest son's college graduation and wedding! This is by far the best rental property that we have encountered! The house has such a spacious, open layout that we never felt crowded. There was so much fun to be had at this house with the pool and ping-pong tables, corn hole, pool toys, hot tub, bikes, fishing off the dock, etc! (We actually caught quite a few unique salt-water creatures off the dock using shrimp bait!) The house is generously stocked with all necessities (toilet paper, paper towel, coffee, spices, garbage bags, etc). It also had so many extras (batteries, toothbrushes, espresso, games, wine...literally everything we could have wanted!) The kayak was super fun, and the trip to open water was very quick. There is ample parking, pool towels, and we were surprised by the extra fridge near the pool area! Perfect for all the drinks!! Patti was so helpful during our stay whenever we had a question. I have never had a host so responsive! The location of the house is a super easy commute to groceries, Ft. Myers, etc. The road is very quiet. Beds were very comfortable- even the bunk beds- and there were several pillow options! They truly thought of everything! We could not have asked for anything more from a rental, and if we come to the area again, I would love to stay at Congo Breeze!! Thank you for sharing your home!!

Paula B.Perfection in Paradise
Perfect location. Close to everything, we rented a boat for the week and went to restaurants & beaches. You are close to shopping and grocery stores. They have thought of everything you might need. The decor is so welcoming. The table and umbrella in the pool was perfect. Many yard games, puzzles, books for your enjoyment. Beds were very comfortable. The owners replied quickly when we had questions. We will be visiting again!!! Thank you for a perfect vacation home!

LeAndra W.This Home was absolutely perfect! It accommodated our family of 14 perfectly. It was super clean and very well equipped. We fully enjoyed the pool and amenities of the home. We rented a boat for the week and jet skis which we were able to dock right at the house. I am so amazed at how well stocked the home was!!! That truly made this home stand out! It’s a 5 min drive to the grocery store and short drive to beaches and restaurants. Patricia was an amazing host. She answered every single question and was prompt with all of her responses. We hope to be back very soon! Thank you so much for allowing our family to stay at the Congo home. It will be forever memorable!

David B.Superb Owner Communication and luxurious home with pool and spa.
The owner of this beautiful home was very responsive to communicate with booking the rental and answering questions during our stay January 2024. We contacted him to adjust the hot spa temperature a couple degrees cooler which he did quickly. We enjoyed the billiards table and cooking in the well stocked kitchen with plenty of spices, S & P, oils, dishes, cups, glassware, small appliances toaster, coffee maker, etc., everything needed. There were plenty of coffee and tea selections. The beds were super comfy and bathrooms had all the supplies needed: towels, shampoo, conditioners, body wash, hair dryer, and lighted make up mirror. The neighbor hood was quiet and a quick drive to the yacht club beach to catch the beautiful sunsets. This home would be a great for a large family vacation. We really enjoyed a relaxing get away.

"Thank you for being such an amazing guest! You were fantastic to communicate with and our cleaners could not believe how clean and organized you left the home. We are so grateful you stayed with us at Congo Breeze - thank you!"
Aaron H.From the time of booking all the way through checkout, Mike & Patti could not have been better hosts. They are extremely thorough with details, lightning fast to respond to inquiries before and during the stay, and cared about every detail being perfect for us during our vacation in their beautiful home.The home itself is beautiful and has every amenity you could possibly need on vacation. I highly recommend renting a boat and using the awesome dock in front of the home to cruise the canal system and venture out into the Gulf.Quiet neighborhood, close to 47th terrace with all of the fun restaurants and bars.Overall would highly recommend this vacation home if you are looking for a large, comfortable, and affordable vacation home for your friends and family.

Nicole M.We had a wonderful time at this beautiful home. The house is very well laid out with privacy for each bedroom and cable TV in each bedroom. We spent a lot of time in the hot tub and pool (heated) -- it was wonderful. This home had all of the necessities you need to prepare a meal as well as anything you need to go to the beach. We loved it and we hope to be back again soon. Mike and Patti were very responsive.

Cynthia B.When booking online we thought Congo Breeze would be the perfect place for our family to come together. We were not disappointed. Congo Breeze is even more beautiful than the images depict. Not only beautiful but Mike and Patti have thought of everything a guest would need while away from their own home. Seriously, all one needs is to go to the grocery store and get food and drink. Everything else is provided and I do mean EVERYTHING!. We have stayed at a few (can't say the name in a review) :) over the years and Mike and Patti of Congo Breeze surpassed them ALL. We had thought of booking elsewhere in the area; we are so happy we did not. We cannot express the gratitude we have for Congo Breeze and Mike and Patti for their attention to detail and the exceptional communication through the process and during our stay. You will not be disappointed if you book the Congo Breeze. Instead you will rebook, like we have. Do not pass up this excellent location and home for your next getaway.

They even ordered new floats for the pool during our stay:). Our family of 10 (8 adults and 2 children) had the best time relaxing by the pool and just hanging out together playing pool, ping pong and watching movies. The home is equipped with all the extras for a true vacation down to the expresso machine for those expresso martinis for dessert:). We rented the boat for the week which allowed us to explore the area and visit different restaurants and beaches. Truly an amazing trip that we will forever remember!! Definitely on our list to return

Once we got settled and realized everything that the house had to offer we felt right at home! You literally have the best of everything! We relaxed and played games it the pool, had a corn hole tournament every day,enjoyed the dock and rented a boat for 4 days and just overall had the best vacation.

Family P.Amazing place! Very spacious. Clean. Perfect location for nice walks in the morning, close to grocery stores and bait shops, nice dock. Patti recommended a boat rental: Captian Manni’s Executive Boats LLC. (Great Experience)- they can pick up your boat from Patti’s boat dock if you choose to spend an extra $100. Well worth it. One of our favorite things we did each night besides night fishing- was play pool. So nice to have a pool table indoors to keep you cool. This was our 8th family vacation, 9 total- everyone voted BEST PLACE so far… we will be back. Highly recommend. Owners are absolutely lovely and very kind.

Patti was immediately welcoming and continued to be throughout our visit. She was responsive to all of our questions and even made sure to send a couple of messages welcoming us and sending us tips about the home. We felt right at home from the time we walked in the door until the last day when we left. The house was gorgeous and had plenty of room for all of us. We can’t thank Patti and her staff enough for their hospitality.
