About the host

Hosted by Tricia Bull

Host profile image
Hello and welcome to La Bella Vita on Marco! I am originally from Boston, lived in CT for 10 years before moving to Marco Island in 2018. I have two children, Tyler, a Captain in the Army and Madison, studying to be a Veterinarian in Grenada (the Caribbean!!), and a fur baby, Skipper. I love the beach, boating and yoga which makes Marco Island a perfect place to live. I retired from formal employment as a Health IT Executive in 2022 which allows me time to focus on my three beachfront vacation rentals. I am a small business owner, owning my vacation rental business since 2016, and teach yoga classes. I take pride in hosting clean and stylish properties, responsiveness and service and expect the same in properties I rent.

Why they chose this property

We love Marco Island and the South Seas gated community is serene, beautiful, quiet and full of nature but also has wonderful amenities (such as a large heated pool, tennis and pickleball courts, boat slip rentals). My beachfront condos have stunning views and we updated them to a cozy, coastal vibe. We purchased 3 condos all in the same building and floor so that family and friends can gather together and be close to one another.
