Beachfront vacation rentals in Big Hickory Island

This is such a great, peaceful place to stay on Estero island! Valerie Jean’s spot was immaculately clean, easy to find, and had so much to offer. Definitely recommend for singles or couples looking for extensive pool time. The beach across the street was calm and had lots of great shells as well! While bars and restaurants are limited in the area right now, there were still some local gems worth checking out, as well as a good number of places delivering. Definitely appreciated having a Publix close by and a great kitchen in the apartment! Would absolutely return for another peaceful stay and the awesome pool area!!

Aaron was a terrific host, he responded in a timely manner and sent friendly reminders throughout our stay. The house was beautiful, it had everything we needed and is very close to the beach. Both of the outdoor spaces had comfortable seating. There was a wagon to put the beach chairs and beach toys and coolers in. The beach chairs were great-they have straps like a backpack so that you could "wear" them if you didn't want to take the wagon, they have an attached pillow that can be flipped over the back when not in use, 2 zipper compartments on the back and 2 mesh pockets on the side. We definitely recommend staying at Aaron's Place in FMB! :)

Maria is an amazing host. She anticipated our needs and went above and beyond to help us find things for the kids to do. Her home was lovely. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Andy's place was perfection for our girls weekend! We couldn't have asked for a better accommodation. Pool was amazing and the private beach an incredible added bonus. Bedrooms were perfect and very comfortable. Wifi worked great and appreciated the Netflix! Everything was perfect and Andy was awesome. Very kind and responsive throughout our stay. 10/10 would stay again! Thank you, Andy!

Great stay! The house was very comfortable and livable and the outdoor space especially was large enough that our family could hang out altogether and not feel crowded. And really appreciated Brianna‘s communication! Always helpful and responded quickly.

So easy to book with & communicate with. We had a wonderful staycation

We had a wonderful week in Sanibel and are already looking forward to returning! Chris was an excellent host—friendly, responsive, and full of great local recommendations that helped make our trip even better. The condo was absolutely perfect—spotlessly clean and stocked with everything we needed. We especially appreciated the extras for beach days: plenty of chairs, sand toys, shovels, and even a beach umbrella. We loved grabbing ice cream at The Shack and had some fantastic meals at The Lighthouse Café and Gramma Dot’s. Jerry’s made grocery shopping a breeze with their easy online ordering and pickup. All in all, it was a fantastic stay. Thank you, Chris, for making our vacation so comfortable and memorable!

Kelly-Ann was a terrific, responsive host who made our stay easy and enjoyable. Great location for our interests…boat slip was super convenient…great fishing spot…close to all necessities. House was well appointed and comfortable. Would definitely look to stay here again!

There were 8 of us for our annual family vacation. (ages from 70 to 16) This home was excellant with plenty of space for all to enjoy. This home was spacious with 5 bedrooms and bonus spaces where you could enjoy get away from the group if needed some private time. Very well decorated, comfortable furniture, tropical landscaping with great views of bay. Located on dead end street and walking distance to beach. The screened in pool/hot tub was enjoyed by all.

Our stay here was awesome! The house was perfect; very clean and had everything we needed! The pool and hot tub really added to our stay! We were also able to walk to the beach. Jennifer was very nice and very quick to respond! I definitely recommend staying here and will do so in the future!

Literally steps from Vanderbilt Beach and Delmore Wiggins State Park. The studio condo was clean and just as described here n the listing. David is a responsive host. I'm from out of state and decided not to rent a car. Just be advised that you'll need to use Ubers to get to shopping and restaurants a couple miles away. Wonderful first visit to Naples.

Beautiful home! It was like having our own little private resort. Our last stay on FMB was prior to hurricane Ian. It was great to see all of the rebuilding going on here and on Sanibel. Love the area!

Clean and cozy studio housing. That open up to a Beautiful, Quiet, and Relaxing Oasis! You can enjoy from morning to night. Great Place To Relax

This place was absolutely amazing! All the kitchen accessories, bedroom amenities, and beach stuff provided was top notch. The location right on the beach provided a cool breeze even on the hot days. Sunset views and so many shells. Gulf and pool water were the perfect temperature. We used the bikes and there were plenty to choose from. Gorgeous spot all around!

We had a wonderful stay! We came to Florida for our anniversary and were happy to find Kevin's place. The Condo was beautiful and supplied with everything we needed. It was very quiet and private. We enjoyed the view of the Gulf from the balcony. The pool area was very clean and not crowded. Flippers Restaurant had exceptional food every time. We would definitely stay here again! Highly recommended.

Perfect Beach Getaway. Our stay at Bella Bahia was wonderful! The house is beautiful, clean, spacious, and just a few blocks away from the beach—perfect for a relaxing vacation. Everything was exactly as described, if not better. Ian, the host, was excellent from start to finish. He was incredibly attentive and responsive, always just a message away. His communication was superb, ensuring we had everything needed for a smooth and enjoyable stay. We would 100% stay here again and highly recommend Bella Bahia to anyone looking for a peaceful, well-managed beach house in Fort Myers Beach. Thanks again, Ian.

John’s place is the epitome of a perfect beach vacation home. I could rant on forever but you really just need to check it out for yourself, I wish we could keep it a secret but it would serve no justice to John and all the work he’s put into making this the perfect rental!

Beautiful condo, very clean and had everything we needed the week we stayed. The view from the lanai is beautiful, sailboats going by during the day and gorgeous sunsets at night. The location is perfect, close to great shopping and restaurants. We went for walks on the beautiful beach and neighborhood daily. We look forward to returning.

This condo was perfect for our getaway to Southwest Florida. Excellent host and very friendly! We will be certain to visit again!

The location of the condo was perfect, not too close, not too far from "time square" to do some shopping and get a bite to eat. The condo is beautifully done. It is comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. The king size bed was very comfortable but the couch not so much. The views from the balcony were spectacular and the sunsets were postcard worthy. There was a coin-op laundry area, but we didnt use it. Serge responded immediately to any questions and was flexible with our arrival as our plane landed at 9 am. We did not use the pool, most of time it was a bit too crowded for me but the beach is what i went for, so I didn't mind that. It was also very nice to have the available beach chairs and umbrella, and I say this because people were asking us where we got them from. I would absolutely love to stay there again and even my husband, who is not a fan of the beach, was impressed with the beauty of Fort Myers Beach and location of where we stayed.

Katlyn was a great host and the condo was perfect for our family vacation. We love Sanibel and the location near the lighthouse is the best you can ask for on the island. The unit was well equipped for our family and the extra beach chairs and umbrella were much appreciated. We’ll definitely be back to Sanibel for years to come and will look to book here again.

I was very surprised with how beautiful the house and property were. The host was very quick to respond when we arrived at the house and had a few questions. She answered immediately and we were good to go from there on out. The home was loved by my whole family and we all agreed when we come back to the area we will hopefully be able to stay at this home again.

What a wonderful place!!! It was absolutely perfect for our family of 6. Had all the things we needed/wanted and more! Great location and beautiful view of the ocean. Easy walk to get to a nice beach. The beds were all SO comfortable. Kelly had a variety of sand toys for the kids, beach chairs/umbrella, and a variety of floaties. She was also quick to respond and SO helpful with the questions I had. Highly recommend staying at her place! Thank you Kelly for sharing your home!

We had a lovely stay at Heidi’s Airbnb. The island is still under construction from hurricane ian, but the condo is in amazing condition. We would recommend renting E-bikes from FMB rentals, a fun and easy way to get to the north end. There are shops within walking distance along with a farmers market twice a week with some great booths. The beach is still under construction but it is very accessible. We did see dolphins from the beach!! The condo was very easy to find. Everything was clean and tidy. We had a great stay!
