The photos and description of Villa Tropical say it all. The location of the home is convenient to all that Punta Gorda offers as well as offers easy access to the harbor for boaters. The current description omits a newly installed boat dock with power and water. Our 2-month stay allowed us to meet the wonderful and welcoming neighbors that made Villa Tropical feel like home. Additionally, as a host, Grace is readily available and responsive with a willingness to make your stay everything it should be.

We had a wonderful 10 days in this house. We enjoyed the heated swimming pool looking out on the peaceful canals, with everything from boats to herons to dolphins passing by. The house and outdoor terrasse are roomy enough for 2 families, with a great, well-stocked kitchen and a large outdoor BBQ/eating/pool area. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable and large. Grace was very helpful and responsive before and during our stay. We would come back again gladly!

Let me start off by saying, we were hear celebrating my parents 45th wedding anniversary. During our stay, we traveled the local beaches and local eateries. When we got back to the residence, we relaxed at the poolside had a few glasses of wine and played music. A neighbor complained about the music and stated it was too loud (Frank Sinatra music). An officer arrived and admitted the music wasn't loud, however, asked us just to lower it a little due to the neighborhood we were in. We lowered the music, and never received another complaint. As we were checking out, the next-door neighbor (536) was on his patio, filming us with his his cellphone. My father pulled out his cellphone and began to record him (pretty funny moment). What followed next is what got me slightly upset. The neighbor yelled at us "you people are no longer welcome back". He made several comments using "you people" which seemed racially motivated. After him yelling at us, and even asked him if he was willing to talk about it, we just drove away to avoid any confrontation. The property owner is now trying to add charge me an additional 500 bucks for being aggressive to neighbors when he was the one that approached us. You can't make this stuff up. With that said, not a bad place; however, there are better homes in the area.

The home is beautiful - everything the pictures show and more. It couldn’t be better furnished or equipped. Everything you might need is there. But often the true test of a good place to stay is when something goes work. As home owners we all know that inevitably at some point things break. Well we arrived and something broke. What was amazing and special was how immediately responsive Grace was. She immediately understood the problem and had a specialist service person there within an hour (at 7pm at night). The problem was fixed and our stay was delightful. Couldn’t be more positive about the entire stay and all our interactions.

Has a wonderful place, they had everything you needed! Very pretty!

The property is immaculate, Grace was extremely accommodating - it was just a pleasure to stay there!

My family and I had and excellent time in the house the service was beyond our expectation. The host was always available she really knows how to create memories for her guest

Nice place to stay in a quiet neighborhood. The house has all the amenities required for a pleasant stay + there is always great communication with the property manager.

Recently stayed in this home with my wife and three teenagers. Grace is a fabulous host- very accommodating and great communication throughout. My wife is extremely picky and found the house to be very clean. Grace's house is in a nice neighborhood on a cul de sac. Open floor plan with windows throughout so you can look out at the water. The best feature was the lanai and pool area. The property sits at the intersection of the channel so we had a beautiful panoramic view of the water. We loved sitting outside watching boats pass by--- and dolphins jumping early in the morning and at dusk. I would highly recommend this house.

We had a wonderful time in this quiet, clean and incredibly well equipped house. The pool is spectacular. You can see the dolphins swimming in the canal and the house is beautiful on the inside. The house has everything including four bikes and two fishing poles. We've stayed in several VRBOs and Grace was by far the most supportive, active and thoughtful host we've had. Can't wait to go back next year!

Villa Tropical was the perfect getaway for our family! Grace is extremely responsive and answered our questions and clearly cares about her guests! The views from the lanai are breathtaking both at sunrise and sunset. We enjoyed time by the pool and the ability to cook out and dine on the lanai. The switches for the ceiling fans for the lanai are to the left of the large slider in the living room. The beds were comfortable and there are plenty of pillows if you are like our family who sleep with multiple pillows. Fisherman’s Village is only a short car ride away. Lots of neat shops and several great restaurants. Harpoon Harry’s was a favorite of ours as they worked with my food allergies. There are four adult bicycles that you can also take. We weren’t quite that adventurous but did enjoy riding in the peaceful neighborhood. Kitchen is well stocked so cooking meals there was a breeze! Easy drive to Peace River beach which has a small wildlife center that we enjoyed. Make sure to also check out the walking trail through the mangroves. We also enjoyed a private boat tour with Captain Al on Wilderness Boat Tours. Which is nice in this COVID time we are living in. Highly recommend this property and can’t wait to return to this beautiful home! You won’t be disappointed. Grace thank you again for having us.

We stayed for the week for my Grandaughters first Birthday. Very comfortable

This was our first experience renting a home through VRBO and we were not disappointed. This home is amazing, beautifully decorated and very clean. We spent most of our time on the patio or in the pool. The owner was very helpful and available to answer any of our questions about the home and the area. We are already talking about booking again for next year.

Just left the property after a 2 week stay and we already miss the view and the lanai!!! Loved that everything in the house was clean and new. The sunrise on the lanai is only surpassed by the afternoon on the lanai. The location can't be beat. The neighbors are friendly.
