Rotonda from the air, 1980's
Rotonda is not a holiday development. It is a real community with mainly full-time residents. It has high standards and low levels of crime.

Lying half-way between Sarasota and Fort Myers on the beautiful Gulf Coast, Rotonda’s just 90 miles south of Tampa International Airport… about a 90-minute drive down the interstate. The towns of Englewood and Port Charlotte are nearby and there are a host of great restaurants, supermarkets and other shops just a five to ten-minute drive away.

If you love wildlife, beautiful scenery, clean white beaches, boating, fishing or golf, you will be in heaven in this area. However, if you fancy visiting something designed for higher-energy thrills, there are plenty of tourist attractions within reach.
