Planning Your Next Trip... May We Suggest?  The Resort at Marina Village, Cape Coral, Florida

Where will your next vacation be?  There are thousands of places to go.  We like to take in a little sun each year around the Christmas holidays. 

Each year we contact our vacation club and ask them to see what is available in a certain area.  This year they come up with a place in Cape Coral, Florida known as The Resort at Marina Village. 

We had never heard of The Resort, checked it out on Google and it looked pretty good, so we booked it.

It turned out to be a pretty nice place, a two bedroom, two bathroom suite  about 1,400 square feet with all the amenities of home.  Full kitchen, laundry room, and a large screened balcony overlooking the pool, marina and Gulf of Mexico in the distance.

The complex was made up of this condotel, three other condominium buildings and detached homes within gated communities.  The condos were 2,800 square feet and up, selling from $400,000 to over a million.  The marina was a boater's dream, sail and power boats galore.

The Resort had just about everything you would want, the pool was fantastic, but the lack of a beach had us driving to the Fort Myer's Beach just seventeen minutes down the road.

We would recommend you check out The Resort at Marina Village, Cape Coral, Florida for your next vacation.  We really enjoyed our stay.

Here's a quick look as seen behind our camera...

It was beautiful Mary. What even amazed us us was we were walking by as the landscaper was using a machine in the garden, as we approached, he shut off his machine until we walked past!!

Thanks Ellen, no entertaining for us, we just totally chilled......awesome!

Ed, we are not sure exactly but we passed lots of them. They were everywhere!!

Al & Peggy - I've been to the west coast of Florida a couple of times, but never to Cape Coral.  The Resort at Marina Village sounds like a great place to take a vacation.

Al and Peggy this sound like a great Resort, but you would have to guarantee me one thing, and that is that I will not get stuck in snow like you guys do when you go south :)

Sounds like a wonderful place to relax...the pool did look inviting although Dec. may be a bit too chilly for a dip (unless it was heated).

It was magnificent Michelle...you live in a gorgeous State! Love the birds.

Ha, ha...George there is only one word for that and it is ......FLY!!

Actually Anita the weather was in the 70's (sometimes low 70's), but yes the pool was heated and it felt like 94!! It was spectacular!

Marc it was first class, now we are not sure whether we like it in Cape Coral or Marco Island!!! LOL!!
