Why the Owner Chose Wellington Lakes
For the serenity and beauty of the area. You can enjoy an idyllic day by the pool or shop until you drop! The choice of exciting things to do and see..... Everglades, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel Island, Ford/Edison summer homes, golfing, watr sports, fishing, shopping, etc, etc. Our location is a little bit of heaven and we love it.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
Your vacation can be as busy or as peaceful as you choose it to be. The view over the lake from the pool area is stunning with all sorts of water birds "fishing" the day away. We regularly have a pair of Ospreys swooping down into the lake and even have seen an Eagle. Itis a little bit of heaven on earth.
You can easily spend the day in Orlando, Naples, Everglades, Sarasota and even Key West. The location of Fort Myers is perfect for every type of activity. Try it!
Beautiful beach with lots of things to do......water sports, fishing and lots of places to eat! A great place to go to eat and watch the sunset.
Stunning. Nature preservation, sandy beaches that are stunning with the most amazing sea shells. A great place to dolphin watch. Some lovely little privately owned boutiques for that something differe
Well worth the visit. Just amazing to see the lifestyle, the history and the incredible inventions. The museum is so interesting. You will be intrigued.
A wonderful outside shopping Mall with the most shops, restaurants and coffee shops. You will visit more than once. Very continental.
