From a bird’s eye view, Rotonda West is a perfect circle surrounded by a river and divided into subdivisions, one of which is a nature reserve providing habitat for the region’s wilder occupants.Rotonda has lakes in abundance, canals, golf courses and greenbelt areas allowing superb balance and harmony with nature.

This is the seventh time we have rented in Rotonda and it was certainly our most pleasant experience. We cannot say enough about this home which is beautifully decorated, comfortable, well-equipped and extremely clean. We were welcomed with a personal note and bottle of wine upon arrival after our long drive. We loved the large southwest facing pool, especially on those cooler days. In addition to sunbathing by the pool or beach, our family enjoys playing tennis. Rotonda Haven is perfectly situated within Rotonda Circle so that we could walk, rather than drive, to the park to play tennis. Margaret was wonderful to deal with and can't wait to return to this lovely villa.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

We stayed for one week with our two children ( 11 and 8 ) and as soon as we arrived in the Villa, we all felt releived. It is as nice as all the pictures. Super clean, lots on linens that we did not have to bring. Everything for the beach, and what about that pool. Rotonda is also well situated. Boca Grande beach and Siesta Key or a must see. Thanks a again for your Villa, we had a fantastic time there.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children.

Sunshine, a comfortable place to stay and lots of golf close by.....who could ask for more. We have been vacationing in this part of Florida for a few years now and this is the first home we have stayed that we want to return to again. The owners of this property are fabulous to deal with and they definately care about the comfort of their guests. The home was clean and very well maintained plus comfortable beds.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

From the booking process to the actual accomodations, we couldn't be any happier or impressed. The property owners accurately represented a beautiful, comfortable, and very well maintained property; our only regret was not having found it sooner. Should you decide to stay here you'll notice, before anything else, the responsive and friendly attitude of the owners; an absolute pleasure compared to the impersonal "assembly line" treatment of hotel chains. We were immediately impressed with the villa as well...beautifully decorated and very well appointed. It's also close enough to an endless supply of things to do, while being secluded enough for rest and relaxation...and who wouldn't want to rest and relax in such a terrific home? After visiting local attractions be sure to explore the local towns of Punta Gorda, Port Charlotte, Venice, and Sarasota...beautiful! If you're looking for a reasonably priced stay in a comfortable home environment surrounded by leisure activities, look no further.Recommended for: Romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay in your home. You even ordered up PERFECT weather for us. Now, that's going above and beyond. We absolutely love the fact that it's so private...no neighbors to the south or west. Being able to relax on a vacation is what really makes it great. We're regular visitors to the area, so we knew our way around and visited our favorite restaurants. Thanks again!Recommended for: Age 55+.

We've just recently returned from our wonderful holiday in this beautiful villa. This home is very lovely, tastefully decorated and extremely comfortable. The pool area was perfect for our family of four including two young children. We were able to maintain the pool heat (we opted to pay for the heat for our week in March) at a perfect temperature and our 7 year old spent at least 3 hours a day swimming. We had fantastic weather for the week. We enjoyed dining out under the lanai for lunch and dinner every day. The beds (king in the master) were very comfortable and we enjoyed the luxury of the master bathroom. The location is wonderful allowing us to make the 15 min. or so drive to Englewood beach every morning. Most importantly, communicating with the owners of this home was most enjoyable. They sincerely made every effort to make our stay enjoyable from the original booking to the follow up e-mail. They genuinely are invested in making your holiday a fabulous one. We would definitely recommend this home as 5 star accomodation and we certainly would stay here again.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

Our two week holiday in this villa was excellent. The standard of decor and furnishings were top class and the pool was larger than we had expected. The neighbourhood was very quiet but accessibility to shops and restaurants was good. Local residents were friendly, particularly those we met when out for a walk. The golf courses were conveniently close and we also enjoyed the fishing off the local beaches. We have no hesitation in recommending a stay in this villa.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.

We would like to thank you for a wonderful 2 weeks at your holiday villa in Port Charlotte in December 2009. Your home was immaculate with all the facilities you could ask for including a very good library. The pool temperature was perfect and we made full use of it as the weather was exellent. We hope to have a further visit in the near future.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, sightseeing.

We have visited this superb villa on several occasions and hope to return again soon. It is situated in a quiet secluded position but it is within easy reach of shops,supermarkets, fine beaches, pleasant walks and of course numerous golf-courses. The villa is maintained to a very high standard. The kitchen is splendidly equipped, the bathrooms pristine . The local library has an excellent supply of DVDs and books for hire if you want a relaxing evening in the very comfortable lounge The large pool is a joy to swim in even when the weather is inclement. The patio area has comfortable loungers and also a table and chairs for al fresco dining. Although Tampa airport is the nearest, Orlando and Miami offer reasonable alternatives to give flexibility when booking flights. We can thoroughly recommend this villa for a delightful holiday.Recommended for: Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, sightseeing.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2006
About the owner: We live in Peterborough in the UK and had our home built in 2005 after being invited to spend a couple of weeks with friends at their property in Rotonda, and fell in love with the area – so much so that we bought the plot there and then! The appeal of winter sunshine, ‘dry’ golf and walking on the pristine beaches was too much to resist. Previously we had visited Florida only once when our boys were younger – staying in the Orlando area, and were unaware of the beautiful areas further south.
