Our first visit to Rontonda West turned out to be our best experience in Florida yet. This home is immaculate, well maintained and very comfortable. The heated pool added to our daily activities. The caretaker lives nearby and is available for everything and anything you might need. The listing description and pictures are just as they exist. The owners themselves are wonderful to work with and are so happy to share their lovely home with renters. This is a quaint and quiet neighborhood with friendly neighbors who wave daily. The whole area of Rotonda is quiet and secluded. We experienced no traffic on our daily trips to the many beautiful beaches available within 15 minutes, the closest within about 10. Fishing was great. Restaurants in the area are amazing as well. We enjoyed 2 months here and look forward to returning. Enjoy.
Owner response:What a wonderful review and our guests have been fantastic. We are so pleased they enjoyed staying at our home

We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at this delightful home. The accommodation was excellent - extremely clean, comfortable and tasteful. We loved resting by the pool as well as exploring beaches such as Siesta Key and eating at various, nearby restaurants. The agent was immensely kind and helpful. Please can we return?
Owner response:Hi Mike and Carys Thank you so much for your kind words and we really hope that we can accommodate you as guests again in the future Very best regards Lesley and Peter

We stayed in Lesley and Peter's lovely Rotonda West home Aug. 7-14, 2010. We found the home to be everything we hoped for as it was beautifully decorated and in a great location. Their website is extremely accurate. What you see is what you get and you will love it! Peter and Lesley have provided everything a visitor could possibly want or need while on vacation and they were exceedingly helpful at providing answers to all of our questions before, during, and after our stay. They even welcomed our two dogs without hesitation. Lots of wildlife came to visit during our stay which we enjoyed very much. We would highly recommend the property to anyone interested in superb accommodations!
Owner response:Hi Dorothy and Dennis Thank you so much for the wonderful review for our home after your recent stay. We are so pleased you had a great time and loved the house and the area. We very much hope to meet up with you sometime. Kindest regards Lesley and Peter

Lesley and Peter, the owners of this property, are great and put you at ease the moment you speak to them. They are perfect hosts and keep their Rotonda Home in perfect condition. If you are looking to relax with the family, play some golf and perhaps do some fishing it's a great place to go. They have a local contact ('Al') who is on hand to answer any queries you may have about the property or local area. This was a stress free holiday in a very clean and well presented property, great area too. Highly recommend it.
Owner response:Hi, Thank you so much for your wonderful review of our home and your stay. We very much appreciate it and hope you will be our guests at a future time. Sorry we hadn't responded to this earlier. We hope you are all well. Kind regards Lesley and Peter.

Just wanted to let you know we thorough loved your home. It was more then we imagined and expected. It made our vacation absolutely fabulous. The home was top notch with every available amenity we could ask for. Our family spent many hours in the beautiful pool and at the local nearby beaches. The inside was so clean and orderly and just made us feel right at home. We didnt go without anything. Everything was well stocked and we also grilled outside a few nights. We got a few visits from the canal alligators and my boys and dad thought it was awesome. We also went on a dophin cruise 10 minutes away, and that was fantastic. The men golfed while the woman shopped. I can’t thank you enough and tell you how much we loved your home. Al was a gem and so much help when we needed him! What a great guy you have in him! We were so lucky to spend our vacation at your villa and we hope to one day return because it was simply spectacular! Thanks to you too for being so kind and generous! You made it special in every way! Rick and Lisa SkorupskiTyler and Shane - age 14 and Dylan age 10

Recently spent some time at this beautiful villa. Very tastefully decorated with all the facilities you could want for a wonderful and relaxing holiday – loved the pool - a home from home. Lots of lovely wildlife in and around the garden and the most gorgeous sunsets. Very friendly neighbours and plenty of really good eating places not too far away. Hope to return in the not too distant future.

Dear Peter and Lesley: Thank you for giving us the opportunity to experince a great vacation in your rental home. It was very relaxing to say the least. Everything was just the best. Our guy's thoroughly enoyed the golf courses that were very close. The ladies enjoyed the heated pool along with the wildlife. We had a white ibis visit us at the lanai door and made our days. The alligator bathing in the sun on the bank of the canal behind us was just incredible. You have the best agent taking care of your home, he was always available when needed (which wasn't often) and very personable. The only sad thing we can say is it is not available for us next year which isn't a surprise. You have a beautiful home and I do hope everyone takes care of it. We will be glad to return. Rick and Barb Guy and Gary and Bev Spencer.
