Southwest Florida Vacation Rentals

Sunshine, Beaches & Plenty of Room to Relax

If your idea of a great vacation includes sunshine, warm Gulf waters, palm trees and dinner outside, Southwest Florida makes a pretty compelling case.

But Southwest Florida isn’t just one destination.

It’s a collection of places with their own personalities.

Cape Coral is all about canals, waterfront living and outdoor fun.

Sarasota brings beaches, restaurants, shopping, arts and culture.

Siesta Key brings famous white quartz sand and an unmistakable island vibe.

Marco Island offers Gulf beaches, shelling, boating and a slower pace.

Bradenton puts you close to beaches, waterfront communities and the attractions of Florida’s Gulf Coast.

Sundown Vista offers furnished vacation homes throughout this region so you can choose the destination that fits your trip.

Why Rent a Vacation Home?

Let’s be honest: hotel rooms can get a little tight when you’re traveling with the whole family.

Someone’s always looking for a place to put the cooler.

Someone else is trying to find an outlet.

The kids are arguing over the TV.

And nobody wants to hear, “Mom, he’s on my bed.”

A vacation home changes the equation.

You get bedrooms.

Bathrooms.

A full kitchen.

Living space.

Outdoor space.

And, depending on the home, your own private pool.

Many Sundown Vista homes are designed specifically for families and larger groups, with properties accommodating up to 11, 12, 16 and even 22 guests.

Pool Days Are Vacation Days

Some vacations are built around sightseeing.

Others are built around the pool.

We support both.

Several Sundown Vista properties feature private heated pools, screened outdoor areas, pool toys, loungers, BBQ grills and outdoor dining spaces.

Imagine this:

Breakfast in the kitchen.

Pool by 10.

Lunch outside.

A little afternoon nap.

Back in the pool.

Shower.

Dinner.

Sunset.

That’s not a bad Tuesday.

Waterfront Living

Southwest Florida is surrounded by water, and some Sundown Vista homes take full advantage of it.

Several Cape Coral properties sit along canals and feature private piers or docks. One of the current homes includes a heated saltwater pool, screened lanai and private pier overlooking a wide canal.

That opens up another side of Florida vacationing.

Watch the boats go by.

Try your hand at fishing.

Sit outside with your morning coffee.

Or simply enjoy the view.

You don’t have to be an experienced boater to appreciate waterfront living.

Beaches for Every Kind of Beach Person

Want the famous white sand?

Head toward Siesta Key.

Want a quieter beach day?

There are plenty of options throughout the Gulf Coast.

Want to hunt for shells?

Marco Island is famous for it. The region offers extensive white-sand beaches along with shelling, fishing, boating and wildlife experiences.

And if you’re staying in Sarasota or Siesta Key, you have access to a huge variety of beaches and parks throughout the region.

Eat Your Way Through Southwest Florida

One of the best things about traveling through Southwest Florida is that there isn’t one “Florida restaurant.”

There are seafood shacks.

Waterfront restaurants.

Family diners.

Upscale dining.

Tiki bars.

Beachside grills.

Italian restaurants.

Steakhouses.

And places where you show up in flip-flops and nobody cares.

Siesta Key Village offers more than 100 shops, restaurants, bars and hotels, creating an easy place to transition from beach day to dinner and drinks.

Marco Island’s dining scene ranges from casual family-friendly restaurants to waterfront and upscale dining.

Bring the Whole Family

Southwest Florida is particularly easy to enjoy with a group.

Kids can swim.

Adults can relax.

Everyone can eat together.

And when someone needs a quiet hour, there are enough bedrooms and living spaces to spread out.

Many Sundown Vista homes also include family-friendly extras such as games, bunk beds, beach chairs, bikes, screened patios and outdoor entertainment areas.

Your Southwest Florida Home Base

The best part of a vacation rental isn’t necessarily the house itself.

It’s what the house allows you to do.

Wake up slowly.

Make pancakes.

Pack the beach bag.

Explore.

Come home.

Swim.

Grill.

Laugh.

Sleep.

Repeat.

That’s what Southwest Florida is all about.

And that’s what Sundown Vista is here to help you enjoy.
