Map & Owner's Profile
Superb Waterfront Villa with Private Pool and Boat Dock
Year Purchased: 2005
Why the Owner Chose Punta Gorda Isles
We wanted to enjoy boating and waterside living and having looked at an area between Naples and Sarosota we finally settled on Punta Goda with its old Floridian atmosphere combined with modern amenities and harborside facilities. Punta Gorda is a quiet laid back town that remains largely undiscovered by tourism; yet all amenities are on your doorstep; waterfront restaurants, shopping, boating, world-class fishing and boat tours to the Gulf islands and public golf courses. We also chose Punta Gorda because the weather is fabulous all year round and there is so much for us all to do. It is also a very good base for visiting the whole of South West Florida.
The Unique Benefits at this House
There is so much we enjoy at our home in Punta Gorda. The true holiday atmosphere, the fabulous weather, swimming in our private pool, relaxing with a book, cooking prawns on our grill and going out on our boat to some distant beach or restaurant perhaps with some dolphins joining us on the way. There is of course also the eating out at one of the many restaurants in the area, the shopping trips and the golf, tennis and cycle rides. Even though we have been going there for some years now we never get tired of it and nor do our many guests who return year after year.
Owner's Map of Punta Gorda Isles
Susann and I live in the South East of England. Our area is known as the Garden of England and we are surrounded by lovely countryside with fruit, hops (for making beer) and now vines and lavender. Within one hour we have the sea, London or even France. What might you say is wrong with this? Well you’ve guessed it the weather and not being able to experience all year round outdoor living and this is why we love the hot sunny climes and the laid back lifestyle of Punta Gorda on Florida’s Gulf Coast. Since purchasing our property we have bought a boat and boating adds a whole new dimension to our stays. What’s more Punta Gorda is a great place to explore the whole of South West Florida from. We hope that you enjoy it as much as we do. Nigel & Susann - England

“Wonderful holiday in a very well equipped and perfectly located house. You really have thought of everything!! Kids enjoyed a great day at “Harry Potter’s Wizarding World” at Universal. Have had great days at Englewood Beach (approximately 30 minutes drive). Really enjoyed Port Charlotte town centre with great shopping mall, ie: Macy’s, Old Navy, J.C. Penny and great places to eat. Really enjoyed ‘Cracker Barrel’. Hope to visit Punta Gorda again.” Lyndon, Hayley, Daniel (14 yrs) and Oliver (11 yrs) Heard, Mid Wales, UK – August 2010

“We had a lovely, quiet, restful holiday – even the weather behaved itself. Without a doubt this is the best equipped villa we have been in and we’ve been in lots. However, we agree with the above family – more towels and a change of sheets would be desirable.” Ian & Celia Howden and Dougal & Carolyn Baxter, North Yorkshire, UK – April 2010
