Xcellent Punta Grda location

We needed several weeks stay to attend to business in Punta Gorda. This property was exactly what we needed in terms of the house size and amenities and its proximity to downtown Punta Gorda and the Punta Gorda Isles. Much better than staying in a hotel.

You are in great hands at this property. The host is very attentive to any needs. They respond quickly and kindly. The hot water heater went out during our stay. In very short time, a new one was installed. Our stay was not inconvenienced at all! Thank you for a great stay!

Charming home

I recently stayed in Punta Gorda to explore the area and visit family. My host Christine was terrific, communicated well, was very reasonable is all matters and provided me with a very clean home. Its easily large enough for a small family. Thanks again for your great hospitality.

Great property, very clean

This house was really clean and a perfect layout for our family. The appliances were higher quality than other rentals we have stayed at. The check-in and checkout were super easy. The biggest complaint is that the bedroom doors stick and are a little hard to open and close. Very nice property!

Wonderful VRBO in a Great Location

This property is a great find! It's in a perfect location being close to the Harbor Walk, Fisherman's Village, great restaurants, fabulous parks, grocery store, etc. The property itself was very clean with comfortable living space indoors and outdoors. Communicating with the property manager was simple with fast response times. Overall, our experience was great! When visiting the Punta Gorda area again, we will definitely plan to stay here!

SMALL BUT WONDERFUL

I just wanted a small, reasonable house for my husband and I to stay at. This house was adorable. Nicely decorated and in a quiet, safe neighborhood. We were able to walk to Fisherman's Village and along the water every morning. The back yard was cute with the adirondack chairs and the umbrella table. And you will be accompanied by some delightful geckos! A great spot for our first time visiting Punta Gorda

Two of us stayed for 3 nights. Excellent communication with Christine. The house is in a quiet neighborhood a few minutes from downtown center, restaurants and shops. The house was very clean. Christine has thought of everything needed for a comfortable stay including 4 smart TVs, fast 5G WiFi, fully equipped kitchen, laundry, outside patio with grill and utensils. She has extra touches such as strategically placed night lights, multiple USB ports for charging, and a bag of batteries for remotes. Great place to stay!

About the host

Hosted by Christine Scudder

Host profile image
We moved to Punta Gorda in early 2019. We fell in love with the area immediately. We are very active, and love boating, kayaking, bike riding and going on park walks. On special occasions you really can’t beat the local fine dining or the casual dining with a water view. We just feel so blessed every day since finding our forever home.

Why they chose this property

It wasn’t long after we settled into the area, that we decided to purchase additional homes in paradise. Now we look forward to welcoming visitors to Punta Gorda and into our homes. Our goal is to provide a space that’s comfortable, clean, and feels like a true home away from home.

What makes this property unique

We would love for you to explore, and will provide bicycles and/or kayaks upon request.
