Why the Owner Chose Rotonda West
Having visited and fell in love with the area in 2003, we achieved an ambition of building a wonderful holiday villa that we could truly call a second home.
The Unique Benefits at this Villa
The many wonderful beaches, the fishing and boating and the myriad of wildlife. And of course relaxing by the pool with a good book.

We have just returned from a wonderful two week stay in this beautiful villa. We felt at home as soon as we arrived. We found it to be very clean, luxuriours and comfortable. There is a fantastic pool and lanai, where we spent a lot of our time. We have been to Rotonda before and this villa was in easy reach of great dinning and lots of places to visit. We would highly recommend this lovely villa, and we hope to return one day.
Recommended for:Age 55+, romantic getaway, families with teenagers, families with young children.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two weeks in the sun! This was our third year in Rotonda and the best villa so far! Perfect sun location and very private with a large pool and lanai where we spent all our home time. Very clean, well decorated, lots of towels, lots of reference books as well as fiction, great neighbourhood, felt very safe. We hope to return in the future and would highly recommend this villa!
