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.

Fantastic location and access to downtown amenities. Nice room . Netflix and prime video were good but also need cable TV access.
