Location: Florida South Central Gulf Coast < Florida < USA

Nearest Beach: beach at 3 Miles
Car: necessary
This is such a special place and visitors return year after year. I'm not sure if it's the endless miles of beaches, the relaxing feel of the area, or the friendliness of the residents, but it's one of Florida's best kept secrets and regularly voted in the top 3 places to stay. Rotonda is set on a peninsula with water on 3 sides. There is an abundance of wildlife here, especially birds. Rotonda itself is a bird sanctuary. There are plenty of State Parks here where you can enjoy walking, kayaking and learning more about the fascinating flora and fauna of this diverse sub-tropical climate. Our home has a comprehensive & up to date in-house guide recommending restaurants, shops, sports etc. We have 6 golf courses on Rotonda alone with literally dozens within a 15 mile radius. There are tennis courts on Rotonda & a great tennis club just a few minutes away in Englewood. We have horse riding, a children's playground in the centre of Rotonda & great marked walks and bike trails.

Further details for this vacation villa rental in Rotonda West, Florida

Going for Golf: There are plenty of golf courses in the area, but Rotonda alone offers 6 courses and our Golf Scoop promotion is perfect for golf enthusiasts. The 'Golf Scoop' promotion in low season offers up to 2 adult guests and up to 2 children under the age of 14 (each must be accompanied by a playing adult), unlimited free golf on 4 of the Rotonda courses (81 holes). There is a £35 administration fee and if golf karts are used, this is a personal expense. In High Season, the Golf Scoop is a 'must' if you play two or more rounds of golf a week. In high season 2009, the cost in additional to the fee is just £35 per person, per week. In the 2009 Festive Season and the High Season 2010, the rate will remain £35 per person, per week. Still cheaper than paying for 3 rounds of golf a week!

Fancy some fishing?: Rotonda is perfectly placed for keen anglers. With the coast and the coastal waterway right on your doorstep, backwater fishing and salt water fishing are available. For a relaxing few hours, there are good fish stocks in the waterway behind the house. If you want to experience a day with Capt Jarrett Lombard who is one of the top local fishing guides, we can arrange this for you. He runs several flats boats and takes up to 3 anglers at a time and can provide up to 4 boats at any one time, catering for parties of up to 12 anglers. The enthusiastic angler may well have seen Capt Lombard on the ESPN channel. He competes nationally in the Oh Boy O'Berto Redfish tournaments and his clients travel thousands of miles to spend a day with him. We can arrange this for you, subject to availability, but we do need to give him plenty of notice prior to your arrival.

Top Class Baseball Is Back In Town!: Why not enjoy watching the Charlotte Stone Crabs. The minor leaguers are the Tampa Bay Rays new Class-A Florida State League affiliate. Enjoy watching one or more games between April 11 2009 and September 06, 2009. For special rates and availability, please call us for more details. We have participated in a block of 8 tickets available on a first come, first served basis and they are some of the best seats on the ground.

Other Activities: Game Fishing for the Tarpon between mid-April and mid-July

A Fantastic Holiday Villa in Rotonda West, Florida

Eleanor Louise Cranleigh, U.K.
Review Submitted: July 22, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
I have just returned from Villa Bella with my husband and two teenagers Emma and Robbie. We would like to thank you so much for sharing your beautiful holiday home. We found the villa very clean with beautiful furnishings and a very well kept garden overlooking an inland waterway. The accommodation was superb and the pool with jacuzzi was lovely and was serviced whilst we were there. The property has a gas barbeque which we did not use as we frequented the local restaurants which are very reasonably priced compared to the U.K. The property provided 2 bicyles and sunloungers with cool box and parasol to take to the numerous beaches within 15 - 30 minutes from the villa. The beaches are beautiful and we had great fun! After visiting the shopping outlets in Fort Myers we ventured to Sanibel Island which is well worth a visit, very pretty with a beautiful golden beach which has restrooms and showers. Unfortunately you had to pay for parking but it was $2 an hour but well worth it! We also recommend a visit to Everglades City it is about a 2 hour drive but if you take a tour on the Airboat for one and half hours with Captain Steve at Everglades Island Tours last tour on left towards the end of Dupont Street. We found it the highlight of our holiday and we then headed to Naples which has some upmarket restaurants and shops! Adventure Island water park in Tampa is about 1 and half hours drive away and if you buy a weekday pass which is the same price as the entrance for one day you can revisit as often as you like as long as it is a weekday! We are recommending this beautiful villa to all our friends and relatives and must say thank you so much, we had a wonderful holiday and hope to return in the very near future.
Owner's Response: I love sharing my home with guests and enjoy hearing how much they have enjoyed their holiday at my home. Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. I hope very much to see you all again in the future!

Little piece of Paradise

Slosh Royston, Herts, England
Review Submitted: October 29, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
The villa was just wonderful with everything you could possibly want......and more. It was very clean, bright and airy. The information pack provided was very informative and useful. We made use of the 2 bikes, even though we hadn't cycled for about 40 years! As keen bird watchers and lovers of wildlife, the villa was in a lovely spot. It was so quiet and peaceful. We used to have breakfast by the pool and watch the Anhinga and the Little Blue Heron, who regularly sat on the tree just outside. A family of turtles visited often and we saw lots of other birds and a tortoise.
There are numerous restaurants nearby, our favourites being The Gulf View Grill ( for good food and great sunsets), The Red Lobster, The Olive Garden, but the best by far was Daniels on Cape Haze Drive. We didn't think much of The Fishery. We liked all the shopping, the wildlife parks and just sitting having a cocktail at Millers, on Gasparilla Island watching the boats go by. We will have to go back - we couldn't fit everything in during a fortnight's holiday!

Excellent holidays in Villa Bella

DK-Claus Denmark
Review Submitted: August 14, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
It has been a wonderful holiday with trips to Disney World, Key West and Everglades.
Villa Bella is the perfect place to relax, golf, and we enjoyed the silence and the pool:-)

Regards
Claus
Owner's Response: Thank you for submitting a review for Villa Bella. Part of my great enjoyment at sharing my home comes from the diversity of the many different nationalities of the guests who have stayed at my home. I do hope you will return again. I would love to welcome you back!

BobK Sherfield on Loddon Hants UK
Review Submitted: April 24, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
This was our second visit to Villa Bella. We have also stayed at Harvest Moon but Villa Bella takes the honours as the property is so light with all the patio windows that can be opened if required. The furnishings are a maze of beautiful colours that blend in with the rest of the decor. It really was homef rom home. You do not need to take anything with you as it is all here. Towels, sheets and a fully fitted kitchen to die for. The supermarket is all of five minutes drive away(Publix) and close by there are many restaurants that are shown in the book you have in the villa. We enjoyed our visit and meeting you Sally. It was nice to put a face to the owner. You have done a marvellous job on all your villas and we will be back but unfortunately not next year as you are already booked.
