Why I give Sun Outdoors Sarasota 10/10 stars for amenities. Text overlay about unique amenities I had not seen before

Sun Retreats Estero Bay

Reel 1: Resort amenities caption

🌞🌴 Welcome to Fort Myers’ version of Paradise: Sun Retreats Estero Bay, nestled on 30 lush acres with 300 RV sites complete with full hook-ups and concrete pads. This all-age resort is ideal for families. Just like other Sun Retreats by @sunoutdoors, this resort offers long term and annual sites.

🐶 Pup Paradise: Our senior fur babies, Banana Pig and Mango Salsa, had a blast in the dog park, zooming free on the agility course, away from the crowds.

🏓 Pickleball & 🏀 Hoops: The kind staff equipped us for fun! Trevor and Lennon aced pickleball, while I caught Lennon’s first dribbles at the basketball court.

🛁 Poolside Chill: After the games, we cooled off in the heated pool, and I definitely took advantage of some hot tub time!

🌿 Boardwalk Nature Trail: I fell in love with the boardwalk trail on its own tiny lake island, where we spotted birds, turtles, and even some majestic toads enjoying their natural habitat.

🏋️‍♀️ Fitness Center: Fully stocked with ellipticals, treadmills, kettlebells, and more — it was easy to keep our workout routine on track.

🌈 Kid’s Heaven: Lennon conquered the playground, enjoying the slide on repeat and a massive climbing structure — so much laughter and joy!

🎊 Don’t Miss Out!: Dive into their midweek summer SALE! Use promo code 24SUMMER for 30% off, Sun-Thurs — perfect for a serene escape or an adventurous family getaway. Book by 7/14!

👀 Coming Soon in Part 2: We explore local attractions and stunning white-sand beaches. Shell collectors, you’re in for a treat! 🐚
