Waterfront Luxury Retreat • Pool, Spa, Dock, Kayaks & Bikes

Welcome to Villa Tropical, a waterfront luxury retreat in Punta Gorda surrounded by water on three sides. Step inside to an expansive living room with a wall of windows overlooking the heated saltwater pool, hot tub and spa, tranquil canal, and private dock. With kayaks, bikes, fishing gear, beach gear, and waterfront views included, this canal-front vacation home is designed for relaxing by the water, exploring Punta Gorda, and enjoying the best of Florida indoor-outdoor living.

The Space

Villa Tropical is a bright, spacious canal-front home designed for comfort, relaxation, and connection. The open living room welcomes you with comfortable seating, books, games, puzzles, local magazines, and peaceful views of the pool, hot tub and spa, lanai, canal, and dock. On rare cool Florida evenings, the gas fireplace in the living room adds a warm, cozy atmosphere.

The home accommodates up to 8 overnight guests with three king beds and one queen hide-a-bed. Please seek prior permission before hosting any additional visitors.

The primary suite features a private walk-in closet, direct access to the pool and hot tub spa, and an en-suite bathroom with a steam shower and double-sink vanity. At the opposite end of the villa, two beautifully furnished bedrooms each include closet space and share a full bathroom with a tub, shower, and double-sink vanity.

Pool, Hot Tub, Spa, and Waterfront Living

Unwind beside the newly renovated heated saltwater pool and hot tub spa — one of Villa Tropical`s most relaxing waterfront features. The lanai offers the perfect setting for sunny afternoons, quiet mornings, and peaceful evenings by the water.

Enjoy al fresco dining at the outdoor table, cook on the grill, or relax around the propane coffee table fire pit in comfortable outdoor seating. From the lanai, take in panoramic canal views and watch for manatees, dolphins, and other Florida wildlife near the dock.

The pool, hot tub, spa, lanai, private dock, and canal views create a seamless indoor-outdoor experience — ideal for guests who want a true Punta Gorda waterfront stay.

Dock, Kayaks, Bikes, and Included Gear

For guests who love to explore, Villa Tropical includes 2 kayaks, 4 bicycles, fishing rods, beach gear, and a private dock — all provided free of charge. Paddle the canals, bike the neighborhood, fish from the dock, or head to the beach without extra rental costs.

For safety and wildlife protection, swimming in the canal is not recommended.

Location

Villa Tropical is ideally located near Punta Gorda`s waterfront paths, restaurants, shops, and local attractions. Fishermen`s Village is just a 25-minute walk or roughly a 10-minute bike ride away, offering dining, bars, shopping, harbor views, and entertainment along the waterfront.

Compliance with Villa Tropical’s Regulations for a Secure and Enjoyable Stay:
Your well-being, adherence to local guidelines, and preserving the property`s integrity are our foremost priorities. Enforcement and associated charges rarely become necessary. We earnestly request that our guests extend due respect to the property and the neighborhood.

Obligations of the Booking Guest:
As the individual responsible for the booking, please be aware that you must ensure that your guests adhere to all House Rules.

Pre-Arrival:
Prior to your arrival we will ask you to verify the total number of guests, their respective names, dates of birth, and a copy of the IDs of all your guests over 18 years of age. Any guests who refuse to provide this information are not allowed to stay. For non-Airbnb bookings: Worry-Free Protection for Every Stay: Nova Vacation Rentals uses a Truvi guest damage waiver with each booking ($35). It replaces security deposits and provides accidental damage protection, giving you more freedom to relax and enjoy your time with us.

Shortly before your arrival, we will speak with you over the phone to ensure that everything is in order to meet your needs. The access code will not be provided without this communication. After this call, you will receive a message via your booking platform`s inbox that will include a link to the Rental Agreement which you will need to sign electronically. Once the Rental Agreement has been signed, you will then receive a pre-arrival message that will include essential details, such as the property address and remote access code.

Neighbor Relations and Noise Considerations/ City Ordinance Compliance:
Respect the boundaries of our property and ensure that your guests do not trespass onto our neighbors` premises. In the event of any complaints from neighbors, prompt action will be required on your part, and failure to address the issue may result in you being asked to leave the property.

All guests are expected to adhere to the ordinances of the City of Punta Gorda. A link to the city ordinances is provided in the Guest Manual.

You are vacationing in a residential area. Please be a good neighbor by keeping the noise respectful during the day and night. Excessive and unreasonable noise can deprive neighbors of the peaceful enjoyment of private property. Quiet hours must be observed from 9 PM onwards. Note that our property is equipped with a noise-detecting device called NoiseAware, which monitors noise levels in decibels. If prolonged and excessive noise is detected, I will receive an alert and may contact you accordingly to address the situation. Excessive noise that disturbs the neighbors can lead to forfeiture of your damage deposit and potential eviction. Please refrain from frequent nighttime entrances and exits or activating door lock remotes, as these actions can disturb our neighbors.
