Your vacation in Cape Coral
Tourism plays a major role in Cape Coral today due to its good central location. Thousands of families visit the city every year as vacationers, which is easily accessible via Fort Myers International Airport.
Fort Myers Airport can be reached from all European or other international airports. Air Berlin flies directly to Fort Myers from the German airport in Düsseldorf without a stopover. The holiday homes in Cape Coral or Fort Myers Beach can usually be reached in no more than 30 minutes with a rental car, which you can pick up at the airport.
When you arrive at your holiday home, you will receive a personal welcome from us with lots of information about the region and tips for your holiday.
A holiday in a BMI holiday home will be a wonderful experience for you. In addition to the good care, you will enjoy every moment in the house. Be it breakfast on the terrace or a morning swim in the swimming pool. After extensive sunbathing on the pool terrace, you can also find refreshing refreshment in the pool. Enjoy the evenings with a typical American BBQ and end the day with one of Florida's spectacular sunsets.
Shopping for everyday needs is an experience here in Southwest Florida. Supermarkets like Publix are just a few minutes away. You will find a great selection of fresh produce, baked goods, fruit and vegetables, as well as good meat and the best steaks you have ever put on the grill. Fresh fish from this region is available at the fish counter or you can take a trip to Matlacha and pick out your fish, shrimp or fresh mussels from the fisherman.
Shopping is not only the favorite pastime of Americans. We also know from our holiday guests that it has become their "favorite sport" during their vacation. You can find everything from well-known manufacturers here at unbelievable prices. The department stores nearby or the huge shopping malls in the vicinity offer an incredible selection and relaxed shopping becomes an experience here. You will find friendly staff everywhere who, even if it gets late, don't look at the clock. Customer service is very important here.
There are so many restaurants, be it the traditional steakhouse, the Italian or the fish restaurant, that you could visit a different one every day during your vacation. Here, too, the friendliness of the staff is impressive in addition to the varied menu.
You can work off any unnecessary pounds in one of the many fitness centers, which have very good equipment and offer excellent professional advice. Of course, you can also easily keep fit on one of the many tennis or golf courses.
A visit to the dream beaches will help make your Florida vacation an unforgettable experience. Lovers Key, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel and Captiva are all within easy driving distance and you will be able to observe many species of birds and dolphins. In addition to the fun of swimming in the Gulf of Mexico, you can also collect beautiful shells to take home as souvenirs. Activities such as paragliding, jet skiing and windsurfing are also offered here.
From your own jetty or the nearest marina, you can reach the Gulf of Mexico by boat. An experience not just for boaters. You can also reach the beaches of this region by passing countless islands. A special experience is dropping anchor at one of the small islands such as Breakfast Island or Bikini Island or Cayo Costa, which, like the small islands of the Gasparilla Islands, which are uninhabited, can only be reached by boat. At the helm of your boat, the adventurer in you will be awakened.
Many waterfront restaurants with their own boat docks are on your way and offer a good opportunity to stop and enjoy a welcome refreshment. In Cabbage Key, many boaters leave a dollar on the wall or ceiling of the restaurant as a sign - I was here! It is a once in a lifetime experience to watch dolphins accompany the boat and moor in the marina at sunset. A great day that will provide long conversation material.
Cape Coral and Fort Myers Beach are so centrally located that you can reach many parks and attractions from here on a 1 or 3 day trip. Be it Tampa's Bush Garden, Walt Disney and Seaworld in Orlando or the Everglades. The parks in the nearby area offer beautiful impressions of nature. You can familiarize yourself with life in the mangrove forests by canoe. You feel like you are in another world.
You will have forgotten your everyday life before the sun welcomes you on the first day.
