This is a small operation that is reasonably priced. There are hundreds of native butterflies actively flying and it is beautiful. We sat on a bench for a while and enjoyed the music. I decided to become an annual member because their species change throughout the year.
We raise butterflies so we go there to get our milkweed. Beautiful plants. The shops is great and the big habitat they have is fantastic. You Should check it out.
This was our 2nd time at the Butterfly Estates and it has such a special meaning to us! But today was even better the customer service was truly outstanding a woman name Bri helped us and went totally out of her way. This only made the experience that much better she even took awesome family photos I will have forever!
Absolutely love this place what a wonderful find come in early for a nice cup of coffee espresso cappuccino and breakfast visit the thrift store walk through the kids garden and meet wonderful artists like Luis and then finish the day off in the beautiful 3500 square-foot butterfly greenhouse great place for first dates taking kids friends family and especially grandparents
Zen and magical!! The staff are incredibly dedicated and informed. My family and I loved our visit and that they offer free clinics/classes. Make sure you stop into the gift shop, very unique finds and a chance to help populate the butterfly species!!
My first time visiting. It was a lovely experience and so kind of them to offer a community day with free access to the butterfly garden. Will definitely visit again.
Couldnt recommend this place enough, its so beautiful, peaceful, and informative. I learned more about butterflies and their struggle existing on our planet here more than I have anywhere else. I came here on my birthday with my mom and it really was a truly precious memory. The garden is so serene, its the best place to come to when you just want to relax for a while and unwind.
A nice place, it is a greenhouse so it get very warm. Pick a cooler day
My friend works here. We visited when I came to town. Very interesting - the life of a butterfly.
Great beautiful, peaceful place. Hundreds of butterflies. I bought a caterpillar there to start a butterfly garden at my house. I highly suggest trying the cafe Bullig thats there. Wow.
This place is small but gorgeous and the staff all clearly love what they do. Thank you for breeding more beautiful Florida native butterflies!
Fun experience having Butterflies flying all around you! Great place for visitors and locals. Would be a fun place for a Birthday Party whether your young or old.
Nice place with friendly people
It would have been much better if it wasnt so chilly. Not to many butterflies were out. Will definitely go back on a sunnier day.
Beautiful butterflies and they have cocoons growing even more. Lovely flowers and landscaping.
Did a wedding here for a client and it turned out amazing. Beautiful place.
Great place to ser local SW Florida butterflies and plants.

Nice examples of native butterflies and caterpillars. Staff was very friendly and excited about pointing out and explaining things you might not have otherwise noticed. Gift shop staff also very friendly and helpful. Restaurant next door had delicious ice coffee, try the Herschel, excellent no mayonnaise chicken salad. All in all, a very pleasant experience.

Butterfly house with butterflies native to SW FL which has a butterfly release daily at 10,:30 AM. The butterfly house sells native butterfly plants and caterpillars for raising butterflies including monarchs. Garden shop with gardening and butterfly books, gardening stuff, and seed swap. Great cafe with tasty eats and refreshing drinks. Highly recommend a visit!
My daughter loves this place but it is $6 so pretty expensive for what it is but they have a lot of butterflies of different species. I will be back since my daughter loves the place. Also Veterans they in free
We got there a little late but they released a whole batch late too. We got to see them take first flight out of the mesh bag. Staff were awesome & taught us alot! Enjoyed it
Very nice volunteers add to the experience.
I have wanted to come her for the past 2 years and it was definitely worth it. I love butterflies and the staff is amazing. They we so informative about the butterflies. Will be going back!!
Nice but very small indoor butterfly garden. Takes 10 minutes to see it all. Staff is friendly and knowledgeable and will answer any and all questions. I feel that $20 tickets are a little high seeing as how theres not much to see.
Nice relaxing visit. Staff very knowledgeable and friendly!
Lots of butterflys
Wonderful time - so many neat things to see and enjoy.
Beautiful butterflies. Very knowledgeable people. Great place to visit.
Great photo opportunities, if you have a lot of patience.

Very friendly staff. Very nice place to relax and see the butterflies and turtles.
Peaceful, Informative, & Fun. I spent all day Sunday practicing my photography skills on the butterflies while it was raining outside. If you love butterflies, I definitely recommend checking out the Butterfly Estates in Fort Myers!

This place was amazing. You learned about butterflies but more importantly butterflies as bees are not doing well.The money goes to helping make sure they dont go extinct.

Beautiful
Very interesting

Unique
Okay
Beautifully presented.
Kinda trashy how its setup dead butterflys everywhere
Lots of info if you dont know much about butterflies. A lot of dead butterflies along the ceiling netting etc though. All of the orchids that had been mounted on various plants and hanging baskets were dead. The gardens off of the pathways were about 50% potted plants so that they could be switched out as the butterflies ate them etc.
