Unique Benefits
We are south of Pine Island Rd which has many restaurants, bars & shopping. It is also a quick exit without tolls in and out of Cape Coral. The Walmart grocery is only a few minutes away.
We are also very close to the Matlacha pass where you can experience unique dining opportunities as well as put your boat in the Gulf or fish on the pier or just go down and watch a beautiful sunset. From there you are on to Pine Island which has some great fishing spots as well as some fun little shops.
We love our home as we are in a full neighbourhood with great neighbours which gives you that small town safety but we also are very quiet with 2 empty lots right behind us with trees and land that houses so many birds and different Florida wildlife
Why Kids Love It
I know when my kids were young they would swim in the Pool all day. With solar and electric heat you can set your temperature to your liking and enjoy the pool in a screened lanai free of bugs. With an outdoor table and seating for 6 and a gas grille you can spend most of your day outdoors in and out of the Florida sunshine. We have several pool toys and floaties for kids.
We have 4 large bikes and 1 small one that kids can ride around and explore the neighbourhood or the eagle skate park that is a few blocks away.
We have TV's in every room which I know kids love as well as 2 DVD players, Roku for Netflix, youtube videos and a xbox with several games.
There is also tennis racquets as well as a soccer ball.

Year Purchased: 2011
About the owner: We have travelled to Florida for many years, staying in hotels or condos and renting homes. Our last 5 years before we purchased were staying in several homes in Cape Coral. We were able to discover the things we liked and did not like about rental villas . In 2011 we purchased our home and completely fixed up the home and filled it with brand new furniture , linens, kitchenware etc to make for a comfortable stay for our guests.
Eventually we would like to retire in our home but for now we want others to enjoy our little piece of paradise.
Why this property? Our home is clean and filled with nice furniture for your stay. Depending on the time of year you come it can get quite cold at night where solar heat in your pool does not cut it, Our electric heater keeps those warm temperatures up.
Our canal hosts plenty of wildlife from herons, ducks and cormorants to turtles, iguanas and a family of playful otters. Our canal is stocked with bass, tilapia, to gar and crappies. All good eating right from your own backyard !
We have amazing caretakers of our home from our Property manager Allen to our Pool guy Steve and our lawn maintenance man Cory, all there year round to keep the place looking great.

Reviews
Great Property
Cash Del Sol is a wonderful property, we booked for 3 months and sadly because of Corona we had to come back to Canada early. It felt like home from the time we entered until the time we left. The home was clean, comfortable and relaxing. Being able to open the master bedroom, dinning room and kitchen onto the pool area gave a completely open feeling. Breakfast around the pool with the sun rise but still under the screened lanai was always a treat as well as supper with a great BBQ. Always a view of the water of the canal and trees in the rear offering privacy as well as privacy on both sides of the home made swimming in the pool very enjoyable. A car is essential in Cape Coral as you have to drive to get to any attractions including the beach. Mike, the owner, was always available and helpful by phone. We would come back here again.
