Cape Coral Vacation Rentals

Until the early 1950s, Cape Coral was a vast expanse of land that was only opened for development in 1957. With the construction of a bridge that connected the town directly to Fort Myers, Cape Coral experienced a real boom. The new town grew rapidly and overtook Fort Myers in population after only a few years. The popular vacation region offers some very interesting neighborhoods where you can rent a vacation home or apartment, depending on your personal needs and demands. Those who want to experience a real beach vacation will find the most beautiful sandy beaches around the Cape Coral Bridge. Nature lovers should book a vacation home on the west side of the town. In the immediate vicinity are the nature reserves Pine Island and Matlacha. Here alligators, water birds, turtles and also the diverse flora of the country can be marveled at all year round.
