Red Coconut RV Park
Overview
Red Coconut RV Park stands as a legendary fixture on Estero Island, offering a rare and coveted beachfront camping experience. It captures the essence of classic Florida, providing a relaxed, nostalgic atmosphere where the rhythmic sound of the Gulf waves defines every stay. For decades, travelers have flocked to this destination to enjoy a unique combination of vintage charm and immediate access to the soft, white sands of the Gulf of Mexico.
Location & Surroundings
Perfectly positioned directly on Fort Myers Beach, the park is uniquely split into two distinct sections: the beach side and the park side. It is nestled in a prime area of the island, making it an easy walk or bike ride to local bistros, ice cream shops, and coastal boutiques. The surrounding geography provides sweeping views of the Gulf and puts guests near the Matanzas Pass Bridge, offering a convenient gateway to the mainland and the rest of the Florida coast.
Amenities & Park Features
Despite its vintage feel, the park provides the necessary modern conveniences for a seamless stay, including full hookup sites with water, sewer, and electricity. On-site facilities feature basic amenities such as laundry rooms and a clubhouse that serves as a hub for community interaction. The standout feature is undoubtedly the direct private beach access, which allows visitors to step out of their RV and onto the sand without ever needing to start their engine or leave the property.
Nearby Attractions & Things to Do
There is no shortage of activity surrounding the park, starting with the Mound House, a nearby historic site built atop an ancient Calusa Indian shell mound. For those who enjoy the outdoors, the pristine trails and paddling routes at Lovers Key State Park are just a short drive south. Additionally, the bustling Times Square district offers a lively atmosphere filled with outdoor dining, live music, and the iconic fishing pier, all perfect for taking in a world-class Florida sunset.
Who This Park Is Best For
This destination is tailor-made for sun-seekers and beach enthusiasts who want to be at the center of the island action. It is an excellent fit for seasonal travelers looking for a long-term winter community and families who appreciate the simplicity of a beach-focused vacation. If you are a traveler who values unrivaled coastal proximity and a social, pedestrian-friendly environment, this park offers a quintessential Florida island lifestyle.

Staff incredibly rude, not only to me but I witnessed it with other campers. Manager-Asst Manager are on a giant power trip. I wanted to remind them hello, you run a trailer park! lol $100 for a “campsite” which was actually in the back lot sleeping with the dumpster and trash pandas. What a joke. That area is not hygienic enough for campers and should be used for boat and car storage like every respectable RV park does. My parents (who have lived in Ft Myers for years now) warned me that this place is nasty. I should’ve listened. I will absolutely never stay here again and plan to spread the word adamantly to every camper I know.

This fun place has the best ever, A++++ employees, from the desk helpers to the property workers !They make you feel so welcome like you are their family! The sites on the beach side are the best, especially if you love the romantic sights &sounds of the beach living! Toes in the sand & drinks in your hand!

I'm just a little shock after trying to reserve a beach site for this summer. I called the office beginning of February just to find out that everything on the beach is reserved. I was like ok well then let me reserve for next year to what I was informed that next summer is completely booked as well. Apparently the same people reserve the beach sites over and over and over again every year before anyone else get a chance to reserve. Can someone please tell me how to get a site on the beach? What's the secret? Because I have tried calling a year ahead and it is still impossible. I left 3 start just for the experience of reserving the site was very frustrating. TY

We love Red Coconut Park! We just stayed for two weeks and enjoyed it very much! We wish we could’ve stayed longer! What’s not to like about being on the beach?! The staff was very accommodating and worked with us. I never used the restrooms, but my husband said they were clean every time he used them. This was our first trip of many, we can’t wait until next year!
