The condo was everything and more than we were expecting. Two good size rooms, both with comfortable king size beds. Both had good size bathrooms (master bath was a bit larger with two sinks and soaking tub) with large walk in showers. The only complaint we had was there were no curtains on the bedroom windows so the morning sun and lights from outside came through the thin blinds.
Living area was spacious and could easily sleep 6. Kitchen was set up well and had everything we needed.
Parking was plentiful and we really appreciated the ease of the way they do their keyless entry -- easy way to remember the number.
The view out of the window looking onto a small pond with a fountain was very nice, although with all of the living space for just two of us, we never really sat on the lunai.
The grounds were immaculately kept and the condo was a short walk to the pool. There was nothing too special about the pool although it was nice and not too overly crowded. There is a battle for lounge chairs around noon, but not too big of an issue. We did like the availability of pool towels provided by the condo.
Easy getting around and just a short drive into Naples or to Marco Island.
Enjoyed being able to walk to the golf course from the condo while my wife had the car to go shopping -- big plus to staying here for me. Played Mustang and really enjoyed the course. Fairways and greens were in great shape and pace of play was unbelievably quick. Our foursome finished our round just under 4 hours. Not bad for a resort course. The club house was nice, although seemed to have limited seating. Food was good, but nothing special.
Now, something I just did not understand when I booked, renting through VRBO is NOT the same as renting directly through the Greenlinks resort directly. Its not a huge deal, but we were unable to rent bikes from the resort, and I thought we would be able to. This was a big disappointment to us, since we really wanted to ride bikes through Lely Resort and there are no bikes available to rent nearby. Also, you do not receive the 15% discount on golf.
As for Lely Resort, is more of a community than a resort. Nothing included in resort with staying in Lely. Nevertheless, I somehow managed to get a spa treatment for my wife at the Playa's Club which I guess is strictly private .. she absolutely loved the spa!
We could easily have stayed a month at this condo, and may consider it in the future.
