Would definitely rent again

I had the pleasure of staying at Paradise Cove for February and March 2026. Never before have such a kitchen full of every utensil and small appliance I needed. The house was very clean, beds and pillows comfortable as was everything else in the house and lanai. We loved the pool and hot tub. I would definitely stay here again when it is available in my time frame.

Villa Paradise is paradise

We enjoyed every aspect of this vacation rental. The pool and hot tub were great and used daily. Kayaking, and paddle boarding in the canal was very enjoyable. Convenient location to amenities, quiet neighborhood and perfect fenced yard for our pets. Lots of amenities and a stocked kitchen for all our cooking needs. Rental company was easy to get in touch with for any questions. Would highly recommend this rental to everyone.

Great location, house was perfect!

I cannot say enough about this house. It is so functional and well kept. The neighborhood was quiet and located close to grocery stores, restaurants and Starbucks! The pool area was fabulous. The pool was clean and the heated spa was wonderful. The backyard was fully fenced and our dogs enjoyed playing. We were able to use the boat lift which made life easier instead of just having to tie up to a dock and deal with tides. Since it rains every evening, the cover on the boat lift kept our boat nice and dry. About a 10 minute ride out of the canal to the river. The kitchen was well equipped for cooking. Which made life easier with preparing meals. All appliances were clean and functional. The master was really nice and the bed was very comfortable. The spare bedrooms were nicely decorated and my kids loved having their own bedrooms and bath. The master bath is a bit small but functional as there is plenty of storage to store your personal items so you can have countertop space. Overall I’d highly recommend renting the home for anyone looking for a nice relaxing trip. I’m super picky with cleanliness and I had no issues with the cleanliness of the home. Perfect getaway!
