Q. |
Why Rotonda and why your villa? |
|
|
A. |
The area is often called Florida's best kept secret because it has all the attractions of the gulf - stunning beaches, great weather, many first class golf courses, good shopping and restaurants - without the crowds that are found in the more well known areas. Have a look at the Attractions section of our website for more details.
All in all, we think the villa provides all the ingredients for a fantastic holiday.
