About the host: We have been coming down to this section of Fort Myers, Florida since the late 1980s. Our relatives own a rental condo 5 minutes away which we stayed in many times, always dreaming of owning in Kelly Greens. My husband loves to golf and now our son has joined him on the course - his dream come true! We have enjoyed Sanibel and Captiva Islands since then and have eaten in just about every restaurant and sat on every beach, always collecting shells! We love Fort Myers Beach for the cute shops, dining and live entertainment both day and night. My husband and son have gone on numerous chartered fishing excursions. We are thrilled at how this section and all of Fort Myers has grown over the years. Everything you could possibly want and need is close by - right at your fingertips.
We still come down a few times, every year, always updating/trying to make our condo even better than the year before - which has been such a joy. This is truly our little slice of Heaven!

Perfect Rental Experience - Close to beaches, golf, restaurants
My wife and I could not have been more pleased with the rental at Kelly Greens. Owner Lynda answered all out questions before arrival and checked that all was ok during rental. Great 3rd floor location so vaulted ceilings (you don't get that on 1st or 2nd floors). Lanai overlooks the 7th fairway. Three times we saw the a bald eagle (2 live in nest on golf course) grab fish out of water on hole 7 and dine right outside the lanai! Pool/hot tub and bocce court right across from condo building so very close and convenient. Condo itself was immaculate. Comfortable beds, comfortable furniture, 2 nice new recliners. Golf course very nice on site as I was played with some friends who own condos at Kelly Greens. Condo had everything you could possibly need in kitchen to cook. Bike available in the storage shed. There were available beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers to use to go to the beach. We did this twice and made it so easy because all those things were available for us to use. We went to Sanibel beaches....bridge to Sanibel is 10 mins from Condo. We went to some nice restaurants also....Fresh Catch, Citrola's, Cielo, Mad Hatter,, Roadhouse Cafe, Mythos, Doc Fords. Overall, can not say enough good things about our experience.

Thank you David for such a wonderful review! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay and like our condo so much. Sounds like you had a great time in Kelly Greens, Sanibel and enjoyed some really great restaurants. Looking forward to having you return next year!
A lovely condo - located across from the pool, very close to the beach and absolutely everything you might need!
The 3rd floor condo has everything, including vaulted ceilings, wet bar, and sunset views overlooking the 7th fairway. We spent hours sitting out on the screened lanai, relaxing while watching golfers, ospreys, herons, and numerous other Florida birds. The lovely pool is directly across from the condo and carport. Lynda is so very helpful answering any question that we had prior to our arrival and during our stay. Pack your bags and enjoy, there is nothing else you need to bring. Can't wait to go back!

Lovely condo and community
This was a wonderful place to stay. Great for a winter getaway. The condo had everything we needed, kitchen stocked very well, plus plenty of items for the beach. We really enjoyed the screened in balcony for relaxing and the great view of the golf course and the sunsets. Nice area to bike and walk. Lynda was a very gracious host, always ready to answer our questions and help in any way. We’re very happy that we can return next year.
