Why Choose Royal Shell

Whether you are buying, selling or renting a home, Royal Shell will offer you legendary customer service every step of the way.
Some things that make us standout include:

Maintenance and Housekeeping

Sometimes taking care of your home can seem like a part-time job and it can be difficult to deal with a plumbing or electrical issue if you don’t live here full-time. Our maintenance and housekeeping teams work tirelessly—and even sometimes at night—to make sure Royal Shell guests are comfortable. We also offer 24-hour, seven-days-a-week Emergency Guest Services.

Local Knowledge

Our Vacation Advisors live and work in the area so if anyone is going to know Southwest Florida, Ocala or North Carolina, it’s our Vacation Planning Advisors. If you want to know where to go, what to do, where to eat and what to see, Royal Shell has you covered.

Exclusive Amenities

Royal Shell has its own state-of-the-art laundry facility and we also have our own vacation planning center, maintenance, housekeeping, photography and IT departments. Additionally, we have offices throughout Southwest Florida, Ocala and North Carolina. If you wish to talk to someone in person about something, we can have an agent come out and meet you, or we’re just a short drive away.
 

“For Royal Shell, legendary customer service is not just a buzz phrase.
For us it is a calling, a way of life and a belief.”
Michael Polly, President and Managing Broker for Royal Shell

Destinations To Paradise

Sanibel and Captiva Islands are both popular vacation destinations in southwest Florida. Together they are also known as the “Shelling Capital of the U.S.” Both towns are set in idyllic tropical settings, and they are very different. Captiva will make you feel like you’ve stepped back in time 50 years. You won’t even feel like you’re in Florida anymore. It’s more reminiscent of the Caribbean. Sanibel is known for its beaches, nature preserves and “Island lifestyle.” On Sanibel, it’s all about getting on “Island Time.”

Royal Shell also offers vacation rentals in Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Estero, Fort Myers, Fort Myers Beach and Naples. Enjoy the nightlife in Fort Myers or on Fort Myers Beach. Stay in Naples and experience its high-end restaurants, art district and fancy boutiques. Or take a family trip to Bonita Springs and Cape Coral and explore the area’s canals and waterpark.

If you want to check out the springs of Central Florida, ride horses or play a round of golf at Golden Ocala, Royal Shell has a variety of vacation rentals in Ocala. If you’re a golf enthusiast, Golden Ocala’s PGA golf staff can help you plan a golf outing with competitive tournaments and prizes. The Ocala National Forest is also nearby and it’s one of the area’s biggest attractions.

If you’re itching to see mountain ranges, hangout with friends and family around a campfire, and see the fall leafs change colors, we recommend a cabin rental in North Carolina.
