Family-friendly villa w/ pool & lake views

Savor peaceful mornings by the water as you watch the sun rise over Cape Coral’s Eight Lakes. With serene lakefront views, an infinity pool that blends seamlessly into the horizon, and a shaded tiki hut for afternoon lounging, this spacious villa invites you to slow down and soak up the beauty of Southwest Florida. Whether you’re gathering with family, reconnecting with friends, or taking a workation in the sunshine, this waterfront retreat is designed for comfort, connection, and relaxation.

Outdoor Living
Step outside and discover your own private oasis. The expansive patio features a heated infinity pool with a swim-up bar, creating a resort-style atmosphere right in your backyard. A built-in hot tub invites you to unwind in the evenings, while the tiki hut offers a shaded escape with drinks or a book in hand. Grill dinner on the BBQ and enjoy lakefront meals at the outdoor dining table as the sky turns shades of pink and orange. The backyard also includes grassy space for kids to play and easy access to the canal, where you can launch a boat or kayak directly from the dock. Boaters will appreciate direct Gulf access in approximately 25 minutes.

Indoor Comforts
Inside, the home’s open-concept design creates a welcoming flow between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. Large windows frame the lake and let in ample natural light. The living room features plush seating, a flat-screen TV with Apple TV, and board games for a cozy night in. A dedicated workspace and high-speed Wi-Fi make it easy to stay connected for remote work or virtual school.

The fully equipped gourmet kitchen has everything needed for home-cooked meals, including a stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster, and coffee maker. A breakfast bar adds extra seating for casual meals or evening cocktails, and the dining table offers room for everyone to gather.

Sleeping Arrangements
The home sleeps up to 10 guests across four bedrooms and a sleeper sofa. Two king suites offer ultimate privacy with their own en-suite bathrooms. A queen bedroom and a twin bedroom share a spacious Jack-and-Jill bathroom with dual sinks - ideal for families with children or friends sharing space. A half bath near the main living area provides added convenience.

Amenities & Essentials
Guests have access to a range of comforts, including central air conditioning, ceiling fans, fresh bed linens, a washer and dryer, and an iron. For younger travelers, the home features an outdoor playground and grassy areas to explore. While essentials like shampoo and toiletries are not provided, towels and basic cooking supplies are included. Please note that the garage is not available for guest use, but ample driveway parking is provided.

Perfect For...
This villa is well-suited for multigenerational families, couples traveling together, or groups of friends looking to enjoy Florida’s waterfront lifestyle. With quiet mornings on the patio, poolside afternoons, and Gulf access just minutes away, it offers a laid-back yet well-appointed home base for exploring Cape Coral, nearby beaches, and beyond. Whether you're boating, relaxing in the hot tub, or enjoying a slow breakfast with a view, Serenity Lake makes it easy to settle into the rhythm of the water.

Baseball/ Family Vacation

This was our first family vacation since the passing of my father in law. Our entire family truly enjoyed the location of the house, the layout was perfect. It gave us the chance to be together as one big family but also gave us the space we needed to accommodate our family. Serenity Lake is exactly that, we enjoyed coffee every morning as we watched the sunrise. We highly recommend staying here.

Great vacation rental!

This was a very well-kept and clean home! Had pretty much everything we needed except some pool floats and a few minor kitchen gadgets. Communication was great & check-in / check-out was easy. Only negative was the late check-in time of 5 PM and the cleaners still being at the house when we arrived. We would rent here again!

A nice getaway

Pool and house and dock were great. Clean and well stocked. Even had hichair and pack and play!! The tv is not functional in the office with the pool out couch however and that was unfortunate since it was someone’s bedroom for the week and a crazy amount of light switches , you aren’t sure what’s turning on or off sometimes but otherwise, a great place! Very happy we stayed here!

Family fun

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. It was perfect for our annual summer family vacation. The home is just like the pictures. We had everything we needed and the home is super comfortable with plenty of space for a large family vacation. We mostly cooked at the house but there are plenty of locally owned restaurants and pubs near by. We also rented a boat to enjoy the open waters which was great fun too! Sanibel was ~1hr by boat and two marinas (the Westin and Rumrunners) close by. Fort Myers and Sanibel are also a short drive. Seabim Property Management were great hosts. They warmly welcomed and checked us out of the house. No issues at all with the rental. Would happily stay here again. :-)

Best of Cape Coral homes

If deciding to stay in Cape Coral this is the house you want. These are the features that set this home apart from our previous rentals in a nutshell. Top notch infinity pool and hot tub, outdoor fridge and wine cooler, large table and chairs, dock with tiki hut, long lake view in backyard (not a short canal like most homes with neighbor right behind), privacy on both sides of backyard area, two master bedrooms. I’ve found some houses have some but not all these features. I can assure you that you will never have a regret booking this place, it’s best in class for these reasons..

Pool and fishing oasis

We enjoyed the house, especially the backyard. With an infant, we thought it best to avoid the beach this spring break and opt for a house with a pool. When we found this listing with the lake we knew it would be perfect. Our older kids loved to fish off the dock and the baby enjoyed the pool. The house was very clean and nicely decorated. While the house did have a pack n play and high chair there were very few other kid friendly items (pool toys, games, fishing poles, etc.) so we did have to do a bit more shopping than we had hoped. The rooms all had their own tvs though which made up for that (at least in our tweens opinions). We would certainly stay here again and would probably get a bit more brave to try renting a boat so we could access more of what this area has to offer. Overall it was a great trip and we thank you for the memories!

Beautiful home

The home was beautiful and spacious for our group of 9 people and the location was wonderful. We rented a boat and for those that do so just know that it took about 50 minutes to get through the canals and out to open water but well worth it for us! I'm just putting it in here so if you have young children you can factor that time into your boating time and especially midday when the sun is unforgiving. We used the boat rental company that the property recommended and it couldn't have been easier! They brought the boat right to the house dock and picked it up there as well. There is a Tiki Hut by the dock and it was one of our favorite places for coffee in the morning and wine at night!! All of the outdoor living space was amazing! Unfortunately we did have one problem. When we arrived the first night, the pool temperature was over 100 degrees. We called our consultant and he did not respond to our call. We reached out again the second day and he did not respond again. We found another agent in the paperwork and called her and she then got our consultant to call us. Then when we spoke to him he was extremely condescending and dismissive to us saying pools in Florida are hot. Eventually he came to the house and realized there was a problem so we didn't have normal pool temperatures until halfway through the week. That was upsetting but we made the best of it during that time. Overall, the house is wonderful, once the pool and spa/hot tub were fixed they were so lovely that we spent most of our time out there. It really is a beautiful home. I would definitely stay in this home again, we had such a great and relaxing vacation!

Beautiful home in Cape Coral

Our family of 7 came to Cape Coral as a birthday getaway celebration for us from the Palm Beach coast. We wanted to try something different, and hadn’t been to Cape Coral before. The house was beautiful, well appointed, and space for everyone. We enjoyed the property as it had wonderful features. Just like the pictures, 2 king bedrooms, large kitchen, a great view of the water with tiki gazebo to enjoy, awesome pool, & spa too. Based on the requirements of the property, we called after we checked in and got settled, to set up our appt to meet with the property manager representative Harald, who was assigned to us, for a meeting for the next day. He was nice, and informative and went over the ins and outs of the house with us. It was helpful, but I feel that the light/fan switches, etc could be labeled better in the home and the contract should state about the electricity fee information ahead of the booking so that you know all the details , but Harald was nice & accommodating and we didn’t have any problems. The neighborhood was quiet and easy to get around. We pretty much stayed in the house for the week to enjoy it and relaxed etc…but did do a shopping outing and dinner one night at Point 57. Nice time had by all!

Very Nice Place

We all had an excellent time. There were 9 of us Total. Kids and adults really enjoyed the vacation home. I Also suggest renting a boat for the time that your there. But even without boat the house is really nice, the canal has decent fishing, and we saw 2 dolphins in our canal in front of dock area, never saw a mantee, but pretty sure they were right there to. We took a chance on this place, because it was un reviewed at the time we booked it.. but it turned out great!! Highly recommend this home.
