“Just what we wanted”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2012

We were pleasantly surprised by this hotel, located in a Cape Coral residential neighborhood. When we arrived, we found that our suite (#207, on which these comments are based) was much like what we'd seen on the hotel website. The Hideaway's unassuming self-catering comfort suited us well. Located on the Rubican (Cape Coral's largest canal), the Hideaway features sandy ersatz beach (with Adirondack-style sand chairs and bean-bag shuffleboard), dock, deck with barbecue and seating area, heated pool, plus free Wi-Fi, kayaks, and paddle boat. The decor is quirkily estate sale, not everything matches, but we found it clean, comfortable (Select Comfort adjustable bed!), and ideally situated for our needs. We also had plenty of privacy. Not only that, the Hideaway offered us the use of their corporate discount for car rental! (And we also assume the owners, Mark and Linda, were responsible for the beautiful weather.) Recommended!

Stayed December 2011, travelled with family

“wish it would have hid away.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 December 2011

Location:
The hotel is located in a residential area. When you pull up there is no sign of water anywhere however there is a small canal behind the hotel that leads to open water. We did not like the location though we decided to tough it out (wine) and make the best of it rather than ask for a refund.

Staff:
Obviously a privately owned establishment. They were friendly enough but check-in had an odd flow. It appeared to be a family endeavor with grandma living on the bottom floor with a cage full of parakeets.

Cleanliness:
As out of date as the room was (circa 1970) cleanliness seems to go hand in hand. The room did not have a clean feel.

Summary:
If you can't afford better and you want a place with a kitchen then this may be your place. It is old and run down. In comparison, we stayed at a beach condo the night before we stayed at the Hideaway and paid an additional $20 to get a room with a gulf and granite everything. Just sayin...

“Quiet, well located and good value”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 December 2011

person found this review helpful

Basic suite with kitchen facility - small family run establishment offers good and personal service - we did not stay long but certainly will consider return and recommend for vacation travel - traffic in and out of Cape Coral a bit of a hassle but quiet neighbourhood with easy-to-reach restaurants is positive.
