Cottage vacation rentals in Matlacha

Wow! We loved this house. Great outdoor seating, loved watching the boats come and go. Pool and hot tub were fantastic. Great flat grill for dinners at home. Good restaurant options in the area. Cape Coral is close to so much, but away from traffic. Loads of windows and natural light. Very clean. Highly recommend.

The place was very clean, and everything that required was provided. It was in a park setting, which suited us just fine.

Shawnee, & her husband Dave were wonderful. They kept in touch w/ us, & made sure anything we needed was brought to us. Everything in their home was top shelf. Thank you Shawnee & Dave for a beautiful 2 week stay at your home. Bill & Sharon Hauswirth

This place was perfect for my wife and I traveling with our Parrot. Friendly neighbors and beautiful palm trees surrounding. We would definitely book Martina’s place again.

We had two families and we both enjoyed our stay! The house was very accommodating for both our families with kids. We all enjoyed the salt water pool and patio. The information binder provided gave clear instructions for our stay and provided many recommendations for restaurants and activities to do. Stu and Cathy were very helpful and even personally check on us during our stay!

Great stay on Bokeelia! Tina’s place is beautiful, perfect for a stay-cation. The sky views at night were incredible and the hot tub was perfect. Highly recommend!

Nice space to stay for a get away, or if you are out of town working.

RedAwning was the perfect accommodation for our 3-day fishing trip. We docked the boat directly behind the house, which was equipped with a fish-cleaning station and comfortable outdoor patio. The hosts were friendly and responsive, even offering to replace the coffee maker we were having some trouble with. The house was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen well-equipped (including complimentary wine and water bottles!). It would have been nice to have a second bathroom, but otherwise it was perfect!

Ernest was great! He was super responsive when we were trying to get the heat to work and was very proactive. He had renovated the place nicely after the area had experienced hurricane damage. The town is still in recovery but the neighbors were friendly when we were walking around. I will note that the current pictures (as of Jan 2025) are not up to date due to the renovations post hurricanes but all of the appliances/repairs are new and clean. and should not pose an issue on booking/staying at this house (i.e. the tiles in the bathroom are now white). We would stay here again!!

Second visit and would book this every time we're in town. We love this place.

Very cute, quaint,peaceful and just the right size for what I needed. I will definitely try to stay here again. Thank you for letting me stay at your home.

We had the BEST week at this cottage. The owners were very gracious, and helped us with whatever we needed. We will definitely look into the cottage for our next stay!! Boca is still very much recovering from the hurricane, but overall I was extremely impressed with how well the island looks.

We loved our stay here. Guido and Monica were great hosts, and are very responsive. The house is in a great spot, very close to the beach and causeway. Very clean and everything you could need was provided. Would definitely recommend and stay here again. Thank you!

Charles was a great host! He gave us great instructions. He recommended plenty of restaurants along with activities for us to do. His place was absolutely beautiful inside. It reminded me of camping trips we've had. My son had a good time catching catfish from the backyard. The house was very clean. He provided condiments and spices. He had everything well stocked. I'd love to stay here again and I highly recommend Charles's place.

Great house with plenty of space. The backyard is surrounded by water, it’s beautiful and quiet. Only feedback would be regarding the trash. Large 5 bedroom house but only 1 trashcan outside. It was already full from the previous tenant so we had no where to put the trash. Otherwise great house!

This was our first time staying in a rental. The experience was amazing and easy. I will definitely stay in this home during our next visit to the Island.

Such a beautiful place to stay at. So clean! Fort Myers beach is our favorite place to visit in Florida, so we will be back!! We loved that all the beach items were there and in great condition. I have stayed at a hand full of Airbnb’s throughout the year, and I have to say this was the best stock up one. So many bath towel ( all so clean you could smell the fabric softener on them), paper towel, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, and cooking essentials. Thank you for being outstanding host Deborah and Patrick. We will be back!

We had a great stay. The cottage was very clean. The location was convenient to activities. Vita was always quick to respond and helpful . We would definitely stay again.

Cute cottage with nice decorations and convenient short walk to a local restaurant pub and fish market just down the road. The neighborhood has a quaint old fishing village vibe. Place seemed clean and had comfortable furnishings. Darlene was responsive when we had questions. This was a short weekend getaway for us to an area we had never been. It was fun. (We are new to renting AIR BNB so the one thing we just wondered about is does every host charge a significant cleaning fee and then still expect guests to take bed apart, take out trash and take can to curb etc.?)

We stayed in units 1&2 which have a nice covered parking area, gorgeous views of the sunset, and local osprey that like the palm trees in the backyard. Consider getting both units for longer stays. Definitely go to Perfect Cup for breakfast. It’s within walking distance. Traffic can make it a challenge to back out of the driveway due to visibility. We had one person stop oncoming traffic to safely exit the driveway and that worked well. Lisa was such a wonderful host; thank you Lisa!

Friendly owners, private location and a clean place to stay. All you could really ask for. If ever in Fort Meyers again, I would certainly look to come here first.

Could not say enough about the cottage I stayed in at the Malu Lani was the perfect fishing getaway. The dock space and private boat ramp for my small boat was perfect. Dockage had electrical hook up, fresh water wash down, and fish cleaning station was perfect. The cottage is perfect for two people very comfortable and quiet. Will definitely return Thank you David and Sharon you have a wonderful place.
