The Florida / Florida Gulf Coast region
Florida is situated on the south east coast of the United States and benefits from all day sunshine practically all year round. It is therefore called the Sunshine State! It is within easy drive to Naples and Venice which are traditional historical towns.
Florida has an abundance of lovely restaurants to eat in and is an all year round destination for holiday makers. The state was named by Juan Ponce de León in 1513, during Pascua Florida (Spanish for "Flowery Easter," referring to the Easter season).
The Sunshine State has the fabulous Disney World, Universal Studios and Kennedy Space Centre. It is a tourism magnet because of the electric city of Miami, the stylish beach communities, the Everglades and the amazing Florida Keys.
Sarasota area
The city of Sarasota and the surrounding area is known as the cultural hub of Florida. Sun, sand and water provide a stunning backdrop to museums, botanical gardens, wildlife sancturies and professional theatre, dance, art and music.
There are many things to do and see in Sarasota, and the following is just a selection ...
* John and Mabel Ringling Museum of Art * Sarasota Classic Car Museum * Circus Sarasota * Sarasota Jungle Gardens * Historic Spanish Point * Myakka River State Park * Marie Selby Botanical Gardens * Pelican Man's Bird Sanctuary * Mote Marine Laboratory * Sarasota Bay National Estuary Program
The main North/South Interstate Highway is only 10 minutes away and there are many shopping malls and individual shops with a 5 or 10 minute drive.
The villa provides the perfect base from which to explore the Gulf Coast or visit the many attractions of the Orlando area, which are approximately an hour and three quarters away.
Why not play golf or hire a boat and go fishing?
It is worth remembering that Miami is a 4 hour drive away and it is a very pleasant drive accross the keys.

Guestbook
* Hi Jeanette & Peter. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your villa. It felt more like a home than a holiday rental as everything required was there. The pool was a great place to relax in the evening and the neighbourhood quiet and peaceful, but near enough to the shops, beach and various attractions. The only problem was that we were not there long enough!! We would certainly rebook in the future. Best regards
* Sue & Tony Fitzgibbon, Oxford: The villa was everything we wanted to provide a wonderful holiday. Peter and Jeanette went out of their way to provide a wonderful service. All in all a great holiday. Raymond and Brenda, Fareham
