5.0★May 2026

Ann Marie Vetick has been doing a great job with keeping my wife and I informed throughout the rental process our townhome in Fort Myers. She's always there ready to take a call and answer any questions we have for her. This is our first time putting a property of ours up for rent. We have questions that seem a bit much for us but Ann Marie always reminds us that questions are good things so everyone's expectations are aligned.

Look at their review scores on different sites. 1.6 on yelp. They will run your property down so you’d be wise to go with a respectable company. They (don’t) manage a property in my neighborhood and don’t care that we call asking to please manage it! It is bringing our lovely neighborhood down. Might have something to do with the owner being absent so they don’t feel the necessity. I called the city today and am providing pictures. They’ve had 3 huge piles of leaves blocking the sidewalk on Julia and Morrill for weeks. Now there’s dog poop too. We all have to walk in the street! WHO ARE YOU G…

Gulf Coast has managed my investment property for over 10 years. Have been great at every turn whether dealing with the tenant, maintenance issues, storm damage, or the HOA! A special shout out to my account manager Scott Bodager. Always quick to respond to my emails and phone calls and making sure the issue has been resolved in a timely fashion. Top notch management professionals!

5.0★Jan 2026

I’ve worked with Gulf Coast for years now, and they make renting properties incredibly easy. Scott Bodager is fantastic to work with, I always look forward to hearing from him. We also share an affinity for sub sandwiches, which I respect!

We were owners who unfortunately made the mistake of using Gulf Coast to help manage our rental property. They had extremely poor communication, worst I have ever dealt with. Scott and Shari were unresponsive, unreliable, and evasive which caused massive frustration. To the point the tenant reached out to me via email to resolve an issue. I would not recommend this property manager at all.

They looked at the property and set the rental price. Somehow after they got a hold of the property it came up on Zillow is listed active for sale at 251.000. which is way below the value of the home. I was at the home one day and and a maintenance gentleman came to repair something that I was not even aware that needed repair they never let me know. Then I get an email from the listing agent telling me that they're going to no longer represent me because I wouldn't come down on the rental price and I wouldn't let the maintenance man come in to fix things that I could fix myself. I was also to…

As a board member we recently left Gulf Coast property management because of their inability to service our account. Late financial reports, late posting owners assessment payments, late payments of vendor invoices, and excuses instead of improvement. Not a good experience.

1.0★Oct 2025

Please do your research before hiring this company for association management. One of the WORST companies I have dealt with. Financials were two plus months late, no return calls to residents, calls are answered in the Philippines. Website is not correct with current Cams and accounting personnel. Violations weren’t done for months, even though it was in our contract to do monthly. Bills were not getting paid, And collection notices were being sent to board members Many more headaches that we experienced. BEWARE

1.0★Sep 2025

As a property owner, it’s the worst experience I’ve ever had. I’ve been a landlord for the last 20 years. Hiring Gulf Coast properties was the biggest mistake we ever made. Incompetent they treat every property like slumlords.

1.0★Jul 2025

Gulf Coast at first was great when renting out my property and having them take care of it. After awhile, the tenants started to not pay for their rent, and the management group kept telling me it would be handled and never was. 3 months went by without an eviction notice being placed due to false promises, and 2 more months after the eviction process started until the tenants left. After that, they said I owed them $2000+ for repairs to the property that I had proof was already payed for. After arguing with Scott for 2+ months about it, they finally figured out it was paid for. Due to that no…

Horrible company. I spoke with Marie to try to get my apartment rented. I am still waiting for a call or email in regards. It's been over a week and she never returned my calls either. Stay away!

1.0★May 2025

If I could leave 0 stars u better believe I would. This company does a crap job at managing property's, their communication skills are a 0, I would stay far away from them.

5.0★Mar 2025

Spoke with a representative, Clark; he was patient, helpful assuring me the issues related to the property were pre-existing. He thanked me for bringing these issues to his attention. I was provided with easy to follow instructions and within a couple of hours a service person attended. He too was polite, did what he had been instructed to do and promised another crew would be at the property the next morning to remedy the problem…

Clark took information to pass on to Gulf Coast o to resolve issues on roof replacement that is being done on my rental unit. Waiting for call back to talk about it

Yannah provided excellent customer support and quickly and efficiently took care of the issues.

Yahhah has been amazing to speak to. She has Great customer service skills and it was a very pleasant experience. I will definitely use gulf coast rentals again in the future

Received expert help from Yannah and a quick resolution of my questions on quarterly association fees.

Enjoyed working with Yannah for the final payment of our Florida rental.

Yannah is super - she is most helpful with all kinds of efforts to make my guests feel at home!. Thank you, Yannah!

Had some questions regarding invoicing and ongoing repairs to the pool area post hurricane. CLARK was very helpful and able to address all of my concerns in a polite and effective manner. Many thanks.

5.0★Dec 2024

The service from the agent I spoke with on the telephone was fine. However, it should not have been necessary for me to phone Gulf Coast Vacations to find out how to get access to our rental property for a rental starting on January 1. That information should have come from Gulf Coast without our having to ask. I'm also not happy with the fact that Gulf Coast does not seem to maintain an office for rental contact on Sanibel and that we have to call a remote site for information or service.

5.0★Dec 2024

I called from the UK just to check if the property we are renting in April had suffered any storm damage . Marge was very charming and helpful and assured me that the property was fine , and also explained how the system works er paying the balance due and the arrival procedure . Full marks to her .

Hiro was very helpful, patient and effective in helping me resolve my issue and concern regarding renting out my beach condo. Really appreciated her availability and help!

I called with a referral on a Sunday and it was booked right away by an efficient sales team. Happy owner and satisfied guests. Thanks so much for such good service and responsiveness!

Clark answered all of my questions and did a great job! He offered to send me pics of the property to reassure me that the place was cleared from the hurricanes and damages. We will be back!!!

We are homeowners who are new to the rental program, and the team provided us with confidence and assurance that gave us peace of mind. They answered all our issues and questions with honesty. Kudos to everyone!

5.0★Sep 2024

The team at Golf Coast Property Management has been exceptional throughout my onboarding process. From on-site meeting, video call and professional photography to addressing all my questions, Brendon Meyer, Erica Cruz and Beth Vandroff have been incredibly supportive. As a first-time Florida vacation property owner, their assistance has made the transition into the rental industry seamless and straightforward. This is a well-rounded business where the employees genuinely care about both the owners and the guest experience.

5.0★Sep 2024

The team is doing its best to make sure that my property is taken care of. They never fail to document the condition of my rental house before and after the tenants move out. Looking at the pictures they send regularly, gives me assurance that my property is managed by people who exactly know what they are doing. Nothing is more important than peace of mind! Thank you so much!b

The company has been managing my rental house for over 8 years now I never had any major complaints on how they do the things they do.

5.0★Sep 2024

Like 'hands free driving' GCPM takes care of everything we need. Our property is in University Park and effective June 30, 2025 a 90 day minimum rental period will come into effect.

5.0★Aug 2024

Gulf Coast Rentals has been very responsive to my needs as an owner trying to rent my condo under unusual housing conditions in Fort Myers post Hurricane Ian. The rental manager, AnnMarie, has answered all my many questions, conveyed a much-needed optimism after many dispiriting setbacks, and has taken on tasks in our absence that go above and beyond the manager’s normal duties, I suspect. If I call, text, or email, she nearly always answers or contacts me in a few minutes. She was able to find a renter for the condo as well! I was due a break in dealing with the unsellable condo and AnnMar…

AnnMarie was so helpful in getting me tenants for my property. She professionally handled every obstacle that came up through the process and delt with me while I’ve been out of the country with a 6 hour time difference! 10/10 service

5.0★Aug 2024

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I can’t say enough great things about AnnMarie Vetick! She was incredibly helpful in getting my home rented in a remarkably short period of time. From the start, AnnMarie was professional, attentive, and knowledgeable about the local market. She provided excellent advice on pricing and marketing strategies, which made all the difference. AnnMarie kept me informed every step of the way and was always available to answer my questions. Her dedication and hard work made the process seamless and stress-free. I highly recommend AnnMarie Vetick to anyone looking to rent their property qu…

Entrusting this team with my rental property was one of the best decisions I've made. They found a reliable tenant quickly and have been exceptional in managing the property ever since. They handle all the maintenance issues, and their financial transparency is truly impressive. The peace of mind I get from knowing my investment is being well-managed is invaluable. I can’t thank them enough!

1.0★Jul 2024

This company managed my property for the last 2 years. I will never recommend them to anyone who needs a property management company. They allowed a tenant to essentially destroy my property, mold in the house, AC unit not taken care of, walls broken and paint peeled and needing $1100 worth of painting done just to move in, vents caked in dust and mold due to no service. And all of this while attempting to be in contact with the property manager for updates and being told that there is nothing wrong with the property. If you're ever able to get ahold of the property manager because they never …

1.0★Jul 2024

BEWARE! It started with my rental not getting listed in MLS for several months and therefore not getting any showings. The person who signed us up left the company. To abbreviate a long story, it took 6 months to get a tenant 75% of what Gulfcoast had said they'd rent it for. It was a brand new remodel, I personally paid for professional photos, it was a go and show, so it was easy to show. Then the fees started. Not only do they charge a percentage for property mangament, but they charge fees every time they do work- in addition to the work cost (which is likely marked up too). Gulfcoast w…

Scott Bodager at Gulf Coast Poroperty Management has been our "go to" man on the scene since we turned over our Florida home to them as a Rental almost 2 years ago - he has ALWAYS promplty answered ever question and concern. As an absentee Landlord 1,000 miles away, having a dependable rental agent is an absolute must. We found ours in Scott Bodager.

5.0★Jul 2024

We can't recommend Scott Bodager at Gulf Coast Property Management highly enough! Since entrusting him a long time ago with the management of several of our rental properties, we've experienced tremendous peace of mind. Scott's expertise and dedication have made managing our properties a breeze. He is honest, upfront, dependable and always very responsive. A +++++ / 5 Stars for Gulf Coast and Scott !!!

5.0★Jul 2024

I'm relatively new to working with Gulf Coast Property Management, but I highly recommend Scott Bodager, Account Manager. He has been responsive to my requests and diligent in tracking down resources within Gulf Coast.

5.0★Jun 2024

I’m writing this review to personally thank the team for the outstanding support they have given me. The property managers here are all professional and efficient. You guys always make sure that all concerns and issues of the tenants are resolved as quickly as possible. I don’t have to worry about a single thing because I know that my property is in good hands! I look forward to more years of partnership!

5.0★Jun 2024

Absolutely love our property manager. She addresses our concerns almost immediately and always professionally. Would recommend AnnMarie out of the lakewood ranch office to anyone looking for their new home.

I wanted to take this opportunity to recognize Scott Bodager for the outstanding customer service that he has provided to my family. Scott has been so helpful and thoughtful managing our property. We are so happy that we chose Gulf Coast Property Management.

1.0★Mar 2024

First and foremost the landscaping company is causing more damage than good they continually damage my vehicle when weed whacking outside chipping the paint they kick up mud on the over the house causing more of a mess and they’re rarely doing a good job with the actual physical landscaping when I asked them to do something they have never actually gone through and done what I’ve asked them to do . other than for them to stop putting chemicals on the side of the house that have nothing to do with actual physical landscaping. And only mess up the stucco. Which brings me to my next point which …

AnnMarie Vetick doing a great job in help me with my property. I will give her five star

5.0★Mar 2024

Our property manager AnnMarie has been great from the start--She has been there from the beginning to consult with us about becoming a rental and all the decisions that need to be made along the way. Then as we have moved forward, we were informed about all the potential tenants and was there to answer any questions or concerns we had about the process as we had no previous experience in renting our home. It's been stress free and as long as you have AnnMarie on your side--- you will be in good hands!

1.0★Mar 2024

Can I leave 0 stars?! As a business owner we get reviewed and often! So maybe it’s your time for some feedback that hopefully will prevent other home owners associations to be misled on false pretense. We live in a world where unfortunately your integrity; personal and professional is laid out on the internet and social media and it’s fair to say that your company is lacking some major components that make your business fail in comparison to any quality in the business world. Lack of professionalism and communication is so apparent with this company. Please consider your options when they pres…

ABSOLUTELY AWFUL management and customer service. Impossible to get in contact with. Zero follow through with promises. They even caused us to have to push our board election back an entire MONTH due to their complete incompetence and failure to do the job they were hired to do. I wish I could post the endless screen shots from our neighborhood FB group complaining about the complete incompetence of Gulf Coast, but since I can’t, I’ll just share some of the comments from TODAY ALONE! “This new company is a nightmare. They are telling us that we owe money that we do not owe. I had called and …

This company is an absolute joke. I will preface this review by also, stating that there is absolutely nothing any member of this company with knowledge of the situation could post in response to this honest, candid review that I can support with documentation of its facts. And should anyone at this company attempt to rebut anything I’m about to share I will revise my review to include these absolute facts and make them look very foolish. It is my hope that this review takes away some of their business because of what they’ve done. It is abominable. I’m actually still considering a massive c…

Absolute worst management firm. After of using them for a whole year I got rid of them Dec 23, they have refused to give me back the security deposit and now in violation of the 15 day post Tenant move. That's 3000, checkout has been concluded and Tenant has already moved out. They will NOT respond in anyway whatsoever, calls, voicemails and emails go unanswered. I would completely avoid this Firm for you're own good!!

5.0★Dec 2023

Great customer service! Ms. AnnMarie Vetick is always prompt to respond to any concerns and inquiry regarding my property in Ave Maria. Thanks for facilitating all matters with my property leaving me stress-free. Happy Holidays and continue the good work Gulf Coast!

We have utilized Gulf Coast property management for the last 4 years with very little requests for additional communication from our side (owners). Our tenants have been awesome and in our rental for all 4 years. We are at the end of our agreement and have had the bare minimum of guidance or assistance in closing out our lease. No details or plan communicated to us regarding: the notification of our intent to end/not renew our lease with our tenants; arranging for pickup of our keys, garage door openers; or return of our tenants security deposit to us so that we can in turn refund our tena…

A big "thank you" to Scott Bodager, my account manager at Gulf Coast, for going over and above to try to help me with a problematic air conditioning unit at one of my properties. The installation company wouldn't fix it (said the part was not part of the warranty). After much wrangling, Scott went the extra mile to contact the manufacturer and get THEIR statement that the part was, indeed, under warranty, plus a list of approved service vendors that could make the fix. This initiative saved me over $2,000, as the original vendor offered only to replace the unit--something they had done only…
