The Villages, Florida
This cottage home is the perfect balance of lounging and play. Conveniently located in the established Village of Santo Domingo, this two bedroom, two bath is complete with a den and pullout bed. Just a short jaunt to the entertainment in Market Square and Spanish Springs, this home offers the convenience of both town squares only minutes away. Within the town squares restaurants, shopping, movie theaters and nightly live entertainment abound.
This bright and airy home greets you as soon as you walk in the door with a large open living room, furnished with Italian leather couches. The dining area is well appointed and has seating for six. The bright kitchen is spacious and ready for your latest culinary creations or hosting. You'll note that the kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and dinnerware for dining at home.
The Florida room is perfectly positioned off of the dining area and is equipped with large windows that provide plenty of natural sunlight. Curl up in either of the two spacious lounge chairs for taking in your favorite novel. Just adjacent, the lanai has seating enough for five for those early morning coffee sessions. From the lanai you can take in the orange trees as they move in the breeze or simply watch the palm trees sway.
For everyday needs the nearby La Plaza Grande Shopping Center offers a Publix grocer store, Walgreens Phamacy, banking, apparel shops, restaurants and more. The Colony Plaza Shopping Center contains additional shopping such as Publix, Walgreens, banking, Bealls Outlet and various restaurants.

A chip shot away from the house is the Championship Golf complex of Terra del Sol, which is the closest of the twelve golf clubs. You'll find that the nearby Hacienda Hills course is an excellent test of skill and the adjoining bar and grill is perfect for post round beverages. For golfers looking for new turf, the thirty-two Executive courses available offer plenty of selection and variety with par 4s and 5s mixed in. Make sure that you schedule your personalized lesson at The Villages Golf Academy. The teaching professionals will sharpen your skills via on-site clinics or a personal, frame-by-frame, video review of your swing.
With the nearby Tierra del Sol Championship Golf and Club complex a stone's throw away, mornings can be enjoyed on the course and evening at the club or poolside. Evenings are filled by taking in the atmosphere in the downtown squares and the live music. You can sit back and relax with your favorite beverage from the corner kiosks or kick-it-up-a-notch and dance the night away.
At the day's end, retreat to the Sleep Number Bed System located in the Master bedroom where you will be rewarded with a perfect night sleep. Just select your sleep number via the individually selectable zones and the sheep will count themselves. This space is completed by a walk in closet, private master bath and walk-in shower. The second bedroom is color coordinated and provides excellent relaxation due to the premium mattress provided. Extra accommodation is easily managed in the den; equipped with a sleeper sofa that allows additional bedding for two.
very clean and neat with amenities for all your needs
This was our second stay at this location and I hope to make it our yearly spot. The property is well maintained, clean, relaxing and quiet neighborhood. We enjoy the ease of check-in, location to our yearly jeep event, nearby shopping and entertainment. Property manager is always very helpful and quick to respond if you have any questions or concerns (which we did not). We also love the use of the golf cart for a short evening ride after a long day. We look forward to staying again in October 2020.
The house was clean and well-appointed with toiletries and so forth. It has a Nest heating/cooling system which was neat, and comes with a good quality golf cart. House looked like it was decorated by an interior designer with a beach motif throughout. The master bedroom had a Select Comfort bed (and Tempurpedic pillows) and the guest bedroom had a Tempurpedic Mattress which was even better than the Select Comfort IMHO! The house is near Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter Squares. Rent this place, you will not be disappointed!
Everything was wonderful !! Booking was easy. Home was very well kept, comfortable and located in lovely, safe community. Many amenities were available and the golf cart was a super fun bonus. Our hosts were so friendly and helpful. It felt like they were old friends. I would be pleased to rent this house again.
The house was much larger then it looked in the pictures. It was very well stocked. The bedding is very comfortable with memory foam pillows. I have booked many houses both in the country and out and it one of the most comfortable, clean and well cared for.
We stayed at The Villages and had a great time . The owners were very helpful with making golf arrangements . The house was beautiful and Very clean It was well stocked with plenty of cookware and Dishes
Very nice, clean, spacious, perfect for our needs. Thank you.
We stayed at Lisa's house for the month of February. Great place, peaceful and close to Spanish Springs Square. Lisa's parents are the managers of this beautiful house. They were amazing. One phone call and they were there to help us. Golf, pickle-ball and all the activities were near by. We would definitely rent this house again. Thank you Lisa ! MR & RF
This is a cute, comfortable home with great beds. I gave 3 stars only because the newly installed wifi didn't work consistently so the TV would go on and off while watching. This is a convenient location close to a center with a golf cart, which is the Villages preferred way of travel. Very helpful owners who respond quickly to requests.
The property was just as described and very well equipped with whatever we needed. We were able to visit with old friends who live in the Villages, use many of the amenities and could travel to just about everywhere we needed in the golf cart if we chose to. We would definitely not hesitate to rent again from Lisa. Dave and Kathy S.
