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

For The Fisherman: 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.

For The Sportsman: 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. If you are visiting Florida earlier, the American League Champion Tampa Bay Rays have their spring training camp at the newly renovated Charlotte Sports Park. The season opens on Wednesday February 25 against the Cincinnati Reds and runs until April 04, 2009.

For The Golfer: 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!

Welcome to Paradise

georgern007 Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England
Review Submitted: June 22, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
I have been renting Villas in Florida for approximately 15 years and can honestly state that this was by far the best we have hired. When we first saw the pictures of the villa on the website it looked beautiful, however it was even more beautiful in the flesh. It was extremely clean and very well maintained and the furniture was of a very high standard. (Including Shawn the Giraffe!) One of my main requirements was privacy, which was evident each and every day, in fact it was so quiet we thought we were the only ones left in Florida! My wife did have the opportunity to talk to some of our neighbours and found them very friendly and helpful for local restaurants etc. I also required internet access during my stay and found the wireless systems excellent as I could take my laptop anywhere in the villa (Great for showing the kids back home what the villa looked like with the aid of my laptop webcam). We had one small problem with the wireless connection, which was very quickly sorted out by Hugh (Property Manager) who was also extremely friendly. Naturally we spent most of the time out on the covered lanai; the outside furniture was very comfortable and plentiful. The Pool and Jacuzzi very clean and inviting. Everything advertised was factually correct. I would unreservedly recommend this villa to anyone wishing for that extra special holiday.
Owner's Response: I really appreciate the comments about my home. I have worked hard to create a home that I would want to stay at. The landscaping is important to me because of the great privacy that it offers - I am so pleased that my guests have enjoyed their holiday so much. It is extremely rewarding to know that they have enjoyed their stay. The lanai furniture was an investment, but well worth it as it is so comfortable!

lovely relaxing stay

jollytime hertfordshire
Review Submitted: November 4, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
a well appointed house in a lovely quiet location with a good size pool. house had everything we needed for a family break great to share with two families - they even included the beach towels !!! the only down side was the location was confusing to find withtin the estate but once we got our bearings we were fine, lovely beaches nearby and just a good house to relax in
Owner's Response: Thank you for your review. I do send a map of Rotonda with my final package and my property management company also offer a free map of the local area.

The key is to imagine Rotonda as a dartboard and if you want to get to the west or north exits, it's often quickest to get into the 'bullseye' and cross Rotonda that way. Then everything is within 10-15 minutes! Thank you for staying at my home and I do hope that I will abe able to welcome you back again in the future!

Villa Babara - Rotunda

22009031 Trowbridge, UK
Review Submitted: October 24, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
The description and pictures of the villa did not do it justice, the reallity was so much better. The admin before and after rental was excellent. The condition and cleanliness of the propoerty was of the highest standard.

If you have a car this is a nice place to explore.

Hope to visit again in the future.
Owner's Response: Thank you so much for your review. It's the best compliment an owner can have when guests say that the photos don't do it justice! Villa Bella is a wonderful, light an airy home with good privacy, but you are right, photographs are just a taste of the real thing. Thank you for staying at my home.

Family Holiday in West Florida

dunstable_uk Dunstable, UK
Review Submitted: August 24, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We've just returned from a few days in West Florida after a very busy 10 days in Orlando. The property was lovely, just as described, in fact, better than our expectations. This is certainly a first class residence!

The property has everything that we expected to find from the description, well maintained, clean with great customer service from the on-site management team.

We didn't partake in the golf activities but did visit some of the beautiful beaches in the area.

Do do need a car if you stay here as there are no shops etc within walking distance; however it's only a 10 - 15 minute drive to a great Publix supermarket.
Owner's Response: Thank you to my guests for their review. I'm so pleased that the holiday turned out to be as you expected. I do get frequent comments about the high quality of my management company and would like to thank my guests for reviewing them too! Hope to see you back again soon!

The Publix is very good, we also have a Winn Dixie close by and a Sweetbay and 24hr Walmart store within 15 minutes, so plenty to choose from.

Tranquillity

Peacefullness United Kingdom
Review Submitted: June 16, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
Our holiday was planned for a peaceful and restful stay. Our jobs had been quite busy and hectic since the beginning of the year, so getting away somewhere quiet and relaxing was ultimate to all of us.

We entered Villa Barbara and knew God had paved the way! It could not have been a better location; we had looked at numerous villas in the Rotunda area. The Villa was exceptionally clean and pristine; the tiled floors were lovely to walk on, reminding us of our previous home in Dubai.

The first thing we did was to launch ourselves into the inviting pool and Jacuzzi, how relaxing! After tea it was off to bed. I felt like Goldilocks in the fairy tale, the bed was just so perfect! Not too soft, not too hard, wow! The next morning we had a short drive to Publix for a 2 week grocery shop. The day was spent relaxing by the pool.

For the remainder of our first week we relaxed by the pool, enjoyed a drive out to Venice Beach visiting Sharky’s restaurant right on the beach - great food. We visited Boca Grand and the Lighthouse at the end.

Arriving in Florida at this time of year we knew there would be the afternoon thunderstorms. We had plenty of these to watch late afternoon and sometimes into the evening, spectacular. With the large Lanai at Villa Barbara we didn’t need to go inside when it was raining, we could still sit out with our lunch or dinner.

Self catering in the Villa was made all the more simple by the well furnished kitchen, there was nothing it didn’t have even a TEAPOT for HOT tea! There were plenty of bed linen and towels for all.

We also had a lovely drive through to Disney in Orlando. Family came through from Orlando to visit for a day and they were very impressed by Villa Barbara; so much that they intend to contact the Owner to come again.

There are so many things to do and see if you want to be out and about; equally, if having a peaceful relaxing holiday is what you are more interested in, then this Villa is definitely the place.

The Management Company, Homesearch, were extremely helpful. We had one small problem with the Internet, Hugh came over and the problem was fixed the next day. We also found the Owner, Sallyanne to be extremely helpful prior to our leaving the UK.

Should you wish to book this Villa for your vacation on the Gulf Coast you will find a blessing of peacefulness as you enter the Villa. It will be one we return to in future.

Thank you Sallyanne and those from Homesearch, Marilyn, Hugh and Rick.
Owner's Response: I wanted to thank my guests for a lovely review. I try very hard to offer very good rental homes, I own 3 homes which are side by side and have invested in both the inside and the outside of each of them. It's just so rewarding to receive such generous feedback. I'm looking forward to welcoming such lovely guests back soon too!
