Fantastic Naples Getaway Spot

Stayed with wife and 4 teen kids at this excellent home. House was well maintained, fully supplied with everything we could imagine, and Patt was super responsive to questions (she even stopped by on New Year’s Day to help with pool controls!). I would definitely stay again and highly recommend. Great location to all Naples has to offer.

Four night family stay

Bluebell is in a great neighborhood, very clean and extremely well stocked. Patt was an accommodating and friendly host who continued to check in with us during our stay. It was perfect for our family of five. We highly recommend Bluebell, and it will be at the top of our list if we return to Naples.

Naples vacation

We loved the house! The property manager is fantastic, she was responsive and helpful. She anticipated all of our needs. The house is very well equipped, clean, and nicely renovated.

We had a wonderful stay here. The house was spotless. We enjoyed the large back yard, patio, and the enclosed pool. The house was thoughtfully supplied with everything we needed.

Lovely stay at Bluebell

We had a lovely stay at Bluebell. This house has a fresh, open, bright and cheerful feel. The location is very convenient to beach, dining and shopping. Patt was a fantastic host and she saw to every detail. The house is full of conveniences you might have at your own home, she even had art supplies in the cabinets and that was a treat for my wife who is an artist. We would stay again!

Exceptional Stay in Coquina Sands

My family had an exceptional stay at this beautiful home in Coquina Sands. The listing was comprehensive and captured all of the amenities and perks of this home. The home had EVERYTHING you could wish for on vacation; it was fully stocked with cleaning supplies to beach chairs - not a single need was overlooked. The house is beautifully decorated; the kitchen is amazing, and the living spaces are conducive to entertaining. The location, in Coquina Sands, is perfect for a quick walk to Lowdermilk Park Beach as well as Publix. Further, it is only a 5-minute drive to the restaurants/shopping on 5th and 3rd. Our stay at Bluebell was perfect and we will be back!

Wonderful home in Naples, Florida

The house was spotless and stocked with everything you could possibly need. There was a beautiful gift basket in the kitchen and a handwritten thank-you note attached. It is a lovely home that looks just like the online pictures. The open floor plan is fantastic for families to gather. The beds are comfortable, the bathrooms are modern with great showers, and there is a TV in every room! We especially enjoyed the heated pool. We also used the beach chairs, towels and pull-cart that were provided to go to the beach. Loudermilk Park Beach is 2 minutes away by car or a 15 minute walk. The location is perfect; only a 5 -10 minute drive to shopping, restaurants, parks, and downtown Naples. We highly recommend this house and we will be back!

Cute, beautiful and comfortable Home

We came to Naples for my aunts 80th birthday. And decided to rent this VRBO for three nights. We had great communication with Patricia. When we showed up the house had snacks and drinks in the kitchen. We sat by the pool in the evenings as it was a little hot outside. But it was just fantastic and I would certainly stay at this house again. We did also rent a Turo car which was a nice amenity in Lou of using an Uber to go everywhere. The blue Bell house was fantastic and better than we imagined. Thank you so much for making our lovely weekend even better . . Bryan

Our stay at Mandarin Road in Naples was nothing short of incredible! The home is even more stunning in person — beautifully designed, immaculately clean, and fully stocked with everything we could possibly need for a perfect getaway. From the spacious living areas to the luxurious bedrooms, every detail was thoughtfully curated for comfort and relaxation.The backyard felt like a private resort with its gorgeous pool, lush landscaping, and peaceful ambiance. We spent most of our days lounging by the pool and enjoying outdoor dinners under the stars. The location is also ideal — just minutes from the beach, downtown Naples, and world-class dining and shopping on 5th Avenue.The host was exceptional: responsive, friendly, and made sure we had a seamless experience from start to finish. You can tell they truly care about their guests.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing retreat in Naples. It was everything we hoped for — and more!

The best moms getaway!

Wow! My friends and I just got back from the best long weekend in Naples. Patt was hands down the best host I've ever encountered. Her home was beautiful, recently redone, and had the perfect layout and accommodations for my group of girlfriends on our reunion weekend. The house has a beautifully redone kitchen (equipped with everything - including delicious snacks and coffee pods), comfortable bedrooms, a beautiful screened-in pool and spacious bathrooms. Small details like having plenty of wine glasses, shampoo and conditioner in the bathrooms, beach towels, a restaurant guide and even sun hats to borrow were just some of the details that made this house and rental exceed our expectations. The house is located on a beautiful street for morning walks, and only a quick 8-minute drive to the best restaurants in downtown Naples. We will be back, and will recommend to everyone I know traveling to the area. Thank you!

Charming, well-appointed Naples home with great amenities near the beach

First of all, Patt, the owner, is just lovely — easy to contact, and she goes the extra mile so that her guests feel comfortable and truly on vacation. She could easily be a professional in the luxury hotel industry. The house is great. Generous bedrooms and an open plan kitchen/living/dining area with a second living/dining area. Excellent outdoor space (dining, lounging) plus a screened-in heated pool. Patt has thought of everything in terms of … everything! Kitchen has everything you need, both to cook and to serve; plenty of supplies; instructions for everything electronic in the house; recommendations for dining and tourism. The house is a short drive from Lowdermilk Beach. Parking there is a little bit of a challenge, but the beach itself is terrific. Close to everything downtown. Easy drive, and Ubers are always nearby and relatively cheap. Great place!

A truly pampered experience

I can't say enough nice things about our time at Bluebell. Patt was incredible. I have never stayed at a home that was so wonderfully prepared for our arrival. After bringing our luggage into the house, I opened the refrigerator to find snacks, water, a bottle of wine, fruit, cheese, and a welcome bag of goodies. Patt had the spices stocked, cooking oils, trash bags, dish soap, cleaning supplies, even hygiene items available in the bathrooms. The house was immaculate, beautifully decorated, and comfortable. My son, his wife, and my first grand baby stayed with us a few days. It was the perfect place to enjoy our first vacation together. The neighborhood was delightful for walking the baby and the beach was just a 15 min walk. Lowdermilk Park Beach is beautiful and has chair and tent rental available. They even have a concession stand serving wine, beer, snacks, etc. Thank you Patt for being so responsive and helpful during our stay. Again, one of the best renting experiences I have ever had!!
