Then We Need to Talk!
Do you know a local business serving residents of Ft Myers Beach?


Sunsets that wash the Gulf in gold. Conversations that turn strangers into friends. And a hospitality comeback that proves resilience can look like joy. We sit down with Melissa Schneider, Chief Marketing Officer at TriPower Vacation Rentals, to explore how Fort Myers Beach is welcoming travelers back with smarter homes, warmer service, and a community spirit you can feel the moment your toes hit the sand.
Melissa takes us inside her world—curating property walkthroughs that match real people with the right home, whether it’s a quiet one-bedroom by the shore or a sprawling waterfront estate designed for big family gatherings. She spotlights 501 Palermo, a modern marvel with six master suites, water views, and a clever dual-pool setup that gives guests and owners their own spaces. We unpack post-Hurricane Ian development trends, from resilient design and thoughtful amenities to how purpose-built rentals elevate privacy, comfort, and connection.
The conversation also digs into TriPower’s rebuild, from a portfolio knocked down to three off-island properties back toward 200 and counting. Along the way, Melissa shares why she stayed in Southwest Florida, how the island’s small-town heart turns visitors into neighbors, and the simple must-do that never gets old: sand under your feet and sunset on the water. Beyond bookings, we highlight the Beach Kids Foundation’s scholarships, toy drive, and year-round support for local families—a reminder that travel can strengthen the places we love.
