Villa Starfish Retreat Overview
Experience laid-back Florida living at its best at Starfish Retreat, perched in the isles of Punta Gorda in the sun-kissed Charlotte Harbour. The moment you step through the front doors, you'll be mesmerised by the phenomenal view of the glittery blue waters of the gleaming pool and palm-tree lined canal. This elegantly and contemporary decorated home is designed with sophistication in mind, from the open concept floor plan to the high-end kitchen with granite countertops, which is ideal for preparing dinner after a day at sea. The three bedrooms, each with its own unique style, provide maximum privacy with comfy beds to sink into. The split floor plan ensures that everyone has their own space to unwind after a day in the sun.
But the real magic of this home can be found outdoors. The screened porch area and pool deck offer shimmering views of the canal and an outdoor dining set, bar, and stainless steel grill for those all-American cookouts dining under the stars. The private dock provides easy access to the sultry waves of the Gulf Coast, and with two kayaks and two bikes available for guest use, there's no limit to the adventures you can have. Whether you spend your days exploring the vibrant downtown of Punta Gorda or relaxing by the pool, Starfish Retreat is the perfect place for recharging and relaxing.

Resort Description
A world-renowned fishing area known as the "Tarpon Capital of the World" is more than an angler’s dream. Settled on a quiet stretch of Florida’s Gulf Coast, life in this artsy fishing village moves at a slower pace. It has the ingredients to suit every type of holidaymaker, from beach floppers to nature lovers to history buffs. Its historic streets echo the old Florida charm, full of treasures from mural-decorated buildings to jauntily painted bungalows. Browse for bargains or souvenirs at antique shops or delightful boutiques, or sip coffee under the sunshine in an open-air café. The rich history and culture come to life at the Military Heritage Museum and Punta Gorda History Centre, where you can learn about days gone by. Evenings are tinted in a glow of tangerine pink from the sunset, which washes over the beachside restaurants and bars.
Pack your flip-flops and swimsuit for some beach-hopping along the coast, with Boca Grande Beach, Englewood Beach, and Stump Pass Beach State Park within easy reach. Swathed with ribbons of pristine white sand that fringe calm waters, it’s the perfect place for water sports, from kayaking to jet skiing. Backed by nature parks and wildlife centres, the surrounding landscape is wreathed with woodlands and wetlands, cut with hiking and biking trails.
