Great Way to start a New Year of Hope
Even though the weather was chilly for South Florida, we were able to enjoy the heated pool and sunshine. The house was welcoming, light-filled, and comfortable. We enjoyed the safety of the neighborhood. The canal dock was a draw; large fish came to munch on the barnacles that were attached to the support pilings. The only drawback was the residual clean up in the area parks and beach, which still had hurricane damage and debris, but that had nothing to do with the house. Daniela was quick to respond to our questions. We hope to return!

Definitely a Do-Over
The property was perfect! It was recently renovated and looks great! It was very spacious, beautifully decorated, well supplied, has great amenities (including a heated pool), and is in a wonderful location on a canal at the end of a cul-de-sac.The property owner communicated very effectively and efficiently. The check-out was not stressful at all. I would definitely recommend this property!

Mom & Daughter trip
The house is beautiful. Love the décor! View of the water way is amazing, pool was a relaxing time, thank you for having pool floats for us and warming it up a bit since it was "chilly" for FL weather! Wish we had time to stay longer. Took us a minute to find the laundry didn't' realize it was thru the garage. Location for us was easy to find and close to everything we wanted to do. We were sad that the Peace River Wildlife Center was not open. We are assuming because of damage from the Hurricane. Looked like there was still clean up happening around the area. We spent the day at the Fishermans's Village shopping and eating! All in all a great trip, beautifully decorated, had everything we needed (coffee maker k-cups and tea's, hairdryer, pool towels, sunscreen, pool floats and so much more) Daniela was quick to respond with any questions we had and suggestions of things to do as well. We would 100% stay here again, thank you to our host's you have a terrific place to share with people coming to Punta Gorda!

Great Backyard
This property was exactly as advertised. The curb view is good but the back yard was GREAT! The pool and the channels must be seen to be appreciated. I wish I would have brought some fishing gear as there are some big fish waiting to be caught from the private dock. Inside, the house was laid out well and felt very comfortable. Owners were great about communication and very friendly.

Perfect!!
I only have positive feedback for a lovely, well- kept, clean, nicely furnished home on a quiet cul-de-sac … and from the lanai, a beautiful water way with gorgeous view! We very much enjoyed the fantastic swimming pool!! The owners were extremely welcoming via VRBO messages and offered immediate and kind answers to our questions! The beds were comfortable too! I would love the opportunity to rent again. The location in Punta Gorda is convenient to the Punta Gorda airport, and our favorite beach - Venice Beach. Plus, only 40 minutes to Miramar Outlets in Estero or a drive to downtown Ft. Myers. Thank you for sharing your home!

Wonderful Trip, unfortunate ending.
Beautiful property, nice location. We enjoyed the pool, fishing on the canal, cooking in the well stocked kitchen, the bedrooms we very nice - loved the mattress and pillows! This was a great trip for our family, she even gave us an hour extension on check out since our flight was later in the afternoon. Unfortunately after we left we received a message saying we had left the house a mess and she was considering keeping part of our deposit. We picked up everthing, stripped the beds, started two loads of laundry gathered all the towels, and took out all the trash, we tried to leave the house as we found it. As we left we did decide to use up the last of our food instead of throwing it away so we made sandwiches on paper towels since we already started the dishwasher. We did not wipe down the counter again since we knew the cleaners were right behind and apparently this was not acceptable. I did expain this in response and received a "No worries" response. This really dampened our experience and has become our strongest memory of the vacation.

A must stay in Punta Gorda
Vicki, the property owner was extremely responsive and accommodating. The house set up was perfect. It has large common areas and the bedrooms are very private. It felt like the house went on forever! The house is minutes away from a downtown area full of restaurants as well as fisherman’s village. If you’re looking to stay in Punta Gorda… stay here!!

Beautiful Canal Home!
This home had everything we needed and more! It was very clean, beautifully decorated and very spacious. The home is very bright and comfortable. The kitchen was great and fully stocked with everything we needed for the meals that we cooked in. We loved spending time out by the pool and watching all the boats go by and we even saw dolphins! This home is on a nice quiet street and in close proximity to Fisherman's Village, shopping and restaurants. This was our first experience with VRBO and we really enjoyed it! Vicki was wonderful to work with and was very quick to respond and answer all our questions. Thank you so much for a wonderful first-time experience! We would definitely choose your home again!

Comfortable and complete
This house was beautiful. To be honest I stayed home most of the vacation. My kids and grandkids did the touristy stuff. I stayed home, enjoyed the pool, and watched the boats go by in the canal. My favorite thing was getting outside before the sunrise so I could watch the life in the canal. Once the sun rose the birds seemed to wake up and I even had a visitor, a bird, watch the sunrise with me. Okay, he was probably really there for the lizards. There were plenty of pots, pans, and dishes. Plenty of towels and bedding (the beds were very comfortable). We had a 60-year-old, two 40's, 7, 11 & 16 year old and we were all able to come together or have some time alone as needed. I highly recommend this home. I miss hearing the mourning doves and even the fish crows.

Excellent stay at Bella Vista
Our family stayed at Bella Vista to celebrate our parents' 60th wedding anniversary. The house was immaculate and included all the amenities to feel like this was our home away from home. The view of the canal was spectacular and was a great way to start the day with our morning coffee. Vicki was a most responsive host and it was obvious that she paid attention to all every detail to ensure her guests had an enjoyable experience, which we did. Can't wait to return for another visit!
