Notes: Hello, Barry. First, let me thank you for allowing us into your lovely Florida home, we had a marvelous time! Your home was everything we could have asked for and more. It was spotlessly clean, very spacious and so well stocked with linen, kitchen necessities, toys, etc. The pool and hot tub got a LOT of use! Our 3 year old granddaughter was in heaven! We appreciate all your help you gave us in arranging our trip. With all our thanks, Mary DeVries, Ontario Canada January 2009. Hi Barry WOW! What an amazing house with every comfort of home. Thank you for the lovely time we spent with our friends over Christmas and the New Year. The house was perfect and went above and beyond every expectation we had. I can't tell you how much we appreciated all the special touches. We just felt right at home. The house is beautiful, the neighborhood is quiet, what a wonderful place to get away and relax! We can't wait to come back, again. Thank you so much. Chris & Fons. USA. Dec 08.

Review Submitted: December 6, 2007 Date of Stay: December 2007
What an absolutely fantastic villa. I couldn't recommend it more highly. It is very large and comfortable and in a great location for everyrthing, being close to Gasparilla island and Englewood. It's on a beautiful waterway where we watched the herons and alligators in safety from the dock! There is lots of information in the villa manual on local restaurants, beaches, sports, medical info etc. which is really useful. Brenda, your agent is very friendly and helpful; gave us excellent recommendations on things to do and where to go. The pool backs onto the 2 main bedrooms and it's great to get out of bed, open the bedroom doors and jump straight in the pool. We first went to this villa in May 2005 in a party of 4 people on a golf holiday and just had to come back. It's located in a great spot with easy access to championship golf courses which all cost around $30 including buggy hire Riverwood Lemon Bay Long Marsh Palms etc. These would cost £80+ in the UK.

Perfect Location

TomandDenise London, England
Review Submitted: April 29, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
The villa was clean, spacious and immediately easy to use. It's in a perfect location on a pretty waterway, with a boat dock, pool and jacuzzi. It's so quiet and no-one overlooks the pool area, so we found it really relaxing. It's just a 5 minute drive to a good supermarket, and a short (20 minute) drive to beautiful Gasprilla Island and the many lovely beaches (Stump Pass beach and Blind Pass beach were our favourites). The beaches were amazing, so much less packed full of people than European beaches.

The villa is obviously well-maintained, with nice fluffy towels and a full set of fishing rods, for example. It has cable TV for those times when you've had enough of swimming in the pool or sitting in the jacuzzi.

Great restaurants nearby too - such as Mama's (Italian), Leverocks (fish restaurant on a pretty marina), and a great tex-mex restaurant next to the Wyvern Hotel in Punta Gorda.

I'd recommend this villa to everyone. Given the number of people it sleeps, it's an absolute bargain compared to hotels.

Our extended family had a wonderful time while vacationing in March at your vacation home. It is a beautiful, clean, well stocked and fairly new vacation home. We really enjoyed the pool area and nice open kitchen/familyroom area. I would recommend your home to family and friends.
