This quiet little place was perfect in every way . Walking distance to all downtown restaurants and shops and just a few blocks from a waterfront park . The shower was great and the bed was very comfortable. It has a private patio perfect for morning coffee or dinner on the open air . This place is perfect for one or two guest .

A quiet retreat in Punta Gorda

We really enjoyed our stay. Owners on the property and very responsive to our needs. We encountered a health crisis at the end of our stay and they were very helpful. Location was excellent. No need to rent a car. Everything within walking distance.

Central Punta Gorda

I can't imagine a better location. I walked to restaurants, the farmers market, church etc., and enjoyed my quiet backyard patio. The apartment was sparkling clean and well appointed. Plenty of street parking out front. I would definitely stay here again.
