Further details for this holiday villa rental in Rotonda West, USA

Local beaches: Englewood has 4 beaches on the barrier island of Manasota Key. Manasota Beach, Blind Pass Beach, Englewood Beach & Stump Pass Beach. all offer a variety of amenities. Manasota Beach boasts 14 acres of Gulf front beach & sand dunes with special areas set aside for sheltered tables, barbecue pits, boardwalks & bathhouse facilities. Blind Pass Beach is ideal for swimming, fishing & has more than 60 acres of nature trails. There's a docking area for boaters on the intercoastal waterway. Englewood Beach has recreational areas, boardwalk, picnic tables & concession stands as well as conveniently located nearby restaurants, shops & nightclubs. Walking south from Englewood beach is Stump Pass Beach a narrow strip of beach that offer anglers a great place to fish.

Barrier Islands: There are several offshore keys to explore, some accessible by road bridge; others only by boat. Perhaps one of the most attractive and quaint get-away keys to visit by road is Boca Grande Island. Approx. 20 minutes easy drive from Rotonda the island is reached via a toll bridge from the mainland. Visitors to the key will drive along a road surrounded on both sides by shimmering waters and white sands and millionaires Condo's. There is a wonderful public beach on the key (with a Caribbean feel to it) called Boca Grande. Every year between April and June, Boca Grande Pass fills with thousands of Tarpon fish churning the water all around the boats. Major fishing tournaments are held here, each year. In Boca Grande, the locals use golf carts as a major form of transport and can be easily hired on a daily basis. If you want to experience total isolation and a real unspoilt barrier island, visit Cayo Costa (itself a state park) located south of Boca Grande accessible only by boat.

Golf: Rotonda has 72 Holes to choose from that challenge all skill levels. Rotonda has been awarded a 'Beginner Friendly Certification' from the National Golf Course Owners Association as well as the Charlotte Sun Herald's Reader's choice award for being the best course in Charlotte County. Come on out and give us a visit. The weather is great. The courses are great. All in your own backyard. That's exactly how Rotonda Golf & Country Club's three courses were planned. The Hills. The Palms. The Links. Three emeralds in a spectacular setting bathed by gulf breezes. Challenging, well maintained fairways that provide a new golfing experience with every round. Two great clubhouses with restaurants and lounges are available. Long Marsh Golf Club is the newest course to open in Rotonda. Renowned golf course architect, Ted McAnlis, has produced a championship course that is very different from anything you’ll ever play in the area. Situated on over 300 acres, the rolling terrain hints at a links-type layout and an abundance of stately oaks and native pines and palm frame many holes. Natural waste bunkers and marshes provide a challenge for golfers, as well as a haven for a variety of wildlife. Measuring 7200 yards from the tips, the course can be daunting, but four sets of tees, a minimal use of bunkers and strategically placed mounding provide a friendly game for all levels.

                        We have stayed on Rotonda for many years now and have stayed in some nice villas but this villa is far superior to any other. Luxurious and comfortable, has everything you could possibly want. It has two wonderful master bedrooms which make a huge difference. The villa is very tastefully furnished, not a typical holiday let.The pool is large, able to swim properly in it. The patio area around the pool gets the sun ALL day long, great for sunbathing with lovely patio furniture. Surrounding area is full of wildlife, fascinating to watch. Ideal location for local beaches, all of which are wonderful, spoilt for choice. Lots to do, lovely restaurants + great shopping. We have already booked for next year because the villa is getting very booked up, didn't want to miss it!

                        Owner response: I am glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for booking for next year.

                        We stayed in this wonderful villa for 5 days. When I arrived I was stunned by the beauty of the home and the location. The house has every conceivable luxury and comfort. The master bedroom is amazing as is the second double with beautiful views from both. The villa has been very tastefully furnised and is so comfortable to lounge around. The pool is magnificent, with lovely furniture outside and gets the sun all day! The area is also lovely and very quiet, with shops and restaurants within a short drive. I couldn't recommend staying here highly enough.

                        This was our second visit to the Rotonda area. In 2011 we rented a different property for a 2 week period. While we thoroughly enjoyed our house last year, this property surpassed all of our expectations. We have so many reasons to recommend this property......too many to mention, but I will try to list a few of them. (1) The owner (Tina) was extremely friendly and easy to deal with. Any questions we had were answered immediately. (2) We believe this property is in one of the best locations in all of Rotonda. There were 5 other couples from Oakville staying in Rotonda at various other rental properties and all of them were jealous when they saw our place. The backyard pool/lenai area faces south which means you get to see the sun rise in the morning........and see the sun set in the evening. Inbetween.........you get the sun all day. You have no close neighbours! No one beside you on either side.......and on one side the canal juts out beside the house. The canal also runs directly behind the pool/lanai area and comes complete with a couple of small crocodiles (don't worry, they keep to themselves) and many different types of birds. Perfect! (3) The house is very well equipped.......not like a normal rental property.....more like someones home. Everything is very good quality and lacks for nothing. While the inside is very well furnished, we ate all our meals outside in the lanai area where they had a nice table for 6. (4) When you tire of getting the sun all day (which was rare for us), you could retire to the living area that had a great couch and love seat.......and a nice big television with lots of channels. (5) It has 2 very spacious and fully equipped master bedrooms (complete with walk-in closets) and a large self contained shower area. (6) a large kitchen with new high end appliances (7) a large and "like new" BBQ. OK.......running out of room so I'm going to stop there. Needless to say........we felt the house was great. We stayed for 16 days and have already booked it for 3 full weeks next year (we would stay longer....but we both still work and only have so many vacation days). Truly a fantastic property........you should try it, you'll love it.

                        “The place to be” We have stayed in many villas in Rotunda; and at last we have found the villa that meets our needs of location, privacy and undisturbed views. We spent 21 glorious days in the sun, what more do you need? Like the other visitors to the villa we also found this to be our perfect combination of luxury furnishings with great facilities. Suitable for all age groups and the fishing is great too. We will be returning again in May/June 2012, which reminds me I must contact Tina and book the villa.….

                        A truly awesome holiday getaway in a private & very quiet location with incredible views of the river. We found this to be our perfect combination of luxury furnishings with great facilities. Suitable for all age groups & situated near to a nature reserve we found this to be an ideal location from which to explore the local beaches & attractions. We have been to this area for the past several years & this was by far the most impressive villa we have stayed in. We did not want to leave!

                        A beautiful property - tranquil and quiet; just what we wanted. We visited last year for two weeks and couldn't have been more delighted. The furnishings are lovely - very comfortable. The pool area is also fantastic. Conveniently situated - there's really nothing negative to say - we were also blessed with perfect weather. We will be returning!

                      Manager info

                      Year Purchased: 2004

                      About: I moved to Florida from Jersey, Channel Islands in 2004, finally fulfilling a lifelong dream. I searched long and hard to find the ideal piece of land on which to build a dream home. I eventually settled upon a beautiful, tranquil site on Rotonda and set about creating the perfect home. Due to Visa restrictions - and despite fighting to stay - I was eventually obliged to return to the U.K. and, now, with much regret, offer up this property for rental.

                      Why Rotonda West:
                      The villa was built as a dream home in 2004. Sadly, due to visa restrictions, I was unable to continue living in Florida and had to return home in 2009. It is a property that has had much love and care lavished upon it and one that I was very sad to leave.

                      The Unique Benefits at this Villa:
                      Tranquil, quiet, stunning views, relaxing environment. Glorious Florida weather and stunningly beautiful sunsets. The perfect place to 'get away from it all'.
