Further details
Many people choose a week in the Disney/Orlando area then head for the Gulf Coast for a second week to relax on the coast. However, Rotonda is only a three hour drive from Orlando and the Disney/Universal/Sea World theme parks. It can be a long day trip, but a stopover at a budget motel means a two-to-three day visit is within easy reach and the journey is very straightforward. Why not make Rotonda your base rather than split your visit?
Busch Gardens, Tampa, is a fantastic theme park offering thrilling rides as well as one of the country's premier zoos featuring more than 2,700 animals. It has something for all ages. Being just two hours journey away, Busch Gardens is a fun day trip.
Miami, with its famous South Beach, is just a three hour drive away. Visit a fascinating Indian reservation on the way! Closer still are the Everglades, where you can experience air boat rides and see alligators, all within easy reach. The Fishermans Village in Punta Gorda, 20 mins away, has a beautiful pier with lots of local quaint shops to explore. There is also a factory outlet near Fort Myers. For fishing, many excursions are available locally with some of the best tarpon and shark fishing found anywhere.

'Excellent villa with a great south facing view.
Internet a plus. The villa has all the extra facilities for the beach, for the golfers-clubs available. Cycles available for the active and also tennis rackets and fishing rods'
'The villa furnishings are excellent. We have stayed in numerous villas in Florida, and it is the best and most comfortable bed in the master bedroom that we have ever slept on! I have no hesitation in recommending this villa to others. We hope to re-visit Heron's Rest again in the future.'Of the many villas we have rented, this one has to be the best.
