Home Away from Home
A. Stock
05/02/2013
Minslake is quite simply a home away from home.

Furnished to a very high standard with everything you could wish for a relaxing break. The villa is beautifully kept among manicured grounds in a quiet location away from it all. The pool overlooks the lake and is very private, hours are passed relaxing while watching the wildlife. The computer/Printer is an added bonus and ideal for finding places to visit, cinema times, opening times, restaurants, events and for online check in at the airport etc. There are plenty of books, games and magazines. Beach equipment is provided with a coolbox for picnics. A couple of bikes are provided which are great, although at some of the parks you can rent them too.

The villa is close to shops restaurants and supermarkets. Port Charlotte is only 20 minutes away with a Mall, Cinema and lots of restaurants. The beautiful beaches are close too. The Villa was a wonderful base to explore the Gulf Coast and beyond, we travelled to Orlando, Miami, The keys and Everglades from here easily. Tampa airport is a straight 90 minutes away. Outlet Malls are an hours ride away too for those bargain shopping trips and a little quieter and more relaxed than Orlando.

We love this Villa so much we won't stay anywhere else! The management team are fantastic and on hand should you have any problems (although you probably won't need them!) The inside is kept immaculate and never fails to impress us when we arrive, its a much welcomed site after a long journey.

If we have to pick one fault it would be no BBQ, although there are so many restaurants to try and you may not have the time to use it!

"We had a wonderful three weeks staying in Minslake. We have found in the past that photographs and descriptions can be misleading but in your case the pictures and description do not do justice to the true experience of staying in Minslake. A wonderfully comfortable master bed, usually one of my criticisms as I am a very light sleeper, a well equipped kitchen, nothing has been forgotten, and a very comfortable pair of lounge areas. Minslake is so clean and well looked after, you and the management company must be constantly updating it to ensure the comfort of your guests. We were looking for a relaxing holiday, a home from home, and Minslake gave us exactly that. We slept well, there were no disturbances, Rotonda is a wonderfully peaceful area and Minslake has a gorgeous view over the lake from the lanai with no neighbours overlooking the rear of the property. The lake also had regular visits from Moses, the resident alligator. We can honestly say that this has been the best villa that we have stayed in since we first visited Florida in the early 90s, and we have paid a lot more for some of the previous villas. When we next come to the area we will definitely put Minslake as our first choice." Martin Wheeler
