Comfortable Cottage Home In The Village Santo Domingo

This cottage home is the perfect balance of lounging and play. Conveniently located in the established Village of Santo Domingo, this two bedroom, two bath is complete with a den and pullout bed. Just a short jaunt to the entertainment in Market Square and Spanish Springs, this home offers the convenience of both town squares only minutes away. Within the town squares restaurants, shopping, movie theaters and nightly live entertainment abound.

This bright and airy home greets you as soon as you walk in the door with a large open living room, furnished with Italian leather couches. The dining area is well appointed and has seating for six. The bright kitchen is spacious and ready for your latest culinary creations or hosting. You'll note that the kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and dinnerware for dining at home.

The Florida room is perfectly positioned off of the dining area and is equipped with large windows that provide plenty of natural sunlight. Curl up in either of the two spacious lounge chairs for taking in your favorite novel. Just adjacent, the lanai has seating enough for five for those early morning coffee sessions. From the lanai you can take in the orange trees as they move in the breeze or simply watch the palm trees sway.


For everyday needs the nearby La Plaza Grande Shopping Center offers a Publix grocer store, Walgreens Phamacy, banking, apparel shops, restaurants and more. The Colony Plaza Shopping Center contains additional shopping such as Publix, Walgreens, banking, Bealls Outlet and various restaurants.

Skip over to the Savannah Center or La Hacienda rec center to find arts and crafts, a sport swimming pool, organized actives and more.

A chip shot away from the house is the Championship Golf complex of Terra del Sol, which is the closest of the twelve golf clubs. You'll find that the nearby Hacienda Hills course is an excellent test of skill and the adjoining bar and grill is perfect for post round beverages. For golfers looking for new turf, the thirty-two Executive courses available offer plenty of selection and variety with par 4s and 5s mixed in. Make sure that you schedule your personalized lesson at The Villages Golf Academy. The teaching professionals will sharpen your skills via on-site clinics or a personal, frame-by-frame, video review of your swing.

With the nearby Tierra del Sol Championship Golf and Club complex a stone's throw away, mornings can be enjoyed on the course and evening at the club or poolside. Evenings are filled by taking in the atmosphere in the downtown squares and the live music. You can sit back and relax with your favorite beverage from the corner kiosks or kick-it-up-a-notch and dance the night away.

At the day's end, retreat to the Sleep Number Bed System located in the Master bedroom where you will be rewarded with a perfect night sleep. Just select your sleep number via the individually selectable zones and the sheep will count themselves. This space is completed by a walk in closet, private master bath and walk-in shower. The second bedroom is color coordinated and provides excellent relaxation due to the premium mattress provided. Extra accommodation is easily managed in the den; equipped with a sleeper sofa that allows additional bedding for two.

Clean, quiet and relaxing
This was our second stay at this location and I hope to make it our yearly spot. The property is well maintained, clean, relaxing and quiet neighborhood. We enjoy the ease of check-in, location to our yearly jeep event, nearby shopping and entertainment. Property manager is always very helpful and quick to respond if you have any questions or concerns (which we did not). We also love the use of the golf cart for a short evening ride after a long day. We look forward to staying again in October 2020.

Restful Cottage with Comfy Beds!
The house was clean and well-appointed with toiletries and so forth. It has a Nest heating/cooling system which was neat, and comes with a good quality golf cart. House looked like it was decorated by an interior designer with a beach motif throughout. The master bedroom had a Select Comfort bed (and Tempurpedic pillows) and the guest bedroom had a Tempurpedic Mattress which was even better than the Select Comfort IMHO! The house is near Spanish Springs and Lake Sumter Squares. Rent this place, you will not be disappointed!

Exceeded expectations
Everything was wonderful !! Booking was easy. Home was very well kept, comfortable and located in lovely, safe community. Many amenities were available and the golf cart was a super fun bonus. Our hosts were so friendly and helpful. It felt like they were old friends. I would be pleased to rent this house again.

Much larger then it looks in the pictures
The house was much larger then it looked in the pictures. It was very well stocked. The bedding is very comfortable with memory foam pillows. I have booked many houses both in the country and out and it one of the most comfortable, clean and well cared for.

Great place in the Villages
We stayed at Lisa's house for the month of February. Great place, peaceful and close to Spanish Springs Square. Lisa's parents are the managers of this beautiful house. They were amazing. One phone call and they were there to help us. Golf, pickle-ball and all the activities were near by. We would definitely rent this house again. Thank you Lisa ! MR & RF

comfortable and quiet
This is a cute, comfortable home with great beds. I gave 3 stars only because the newly installed wifi didn't work consistently so the TV would go on and off while watching. This is a convenient location close to a center with a golf cart, which is the Villages preferred way of travel. Very helpful owners who respond quickly to requests.

Great Place !
The property was just as described and very well equipped with whatever we needed. We were able to visit with old friends who live in the Villages, use many of the amenities and could travel to just about everywhere we needed in the golf cart if we chose to. We would definitely not hesitate to rent again from Lisa. Dave and Kathy S.

Very clean and well taken care of
This property is beautiful and spacious with all the amenities you'll need, just bring your clothes and groceries. The owner was always helpful with any questions and we had no issues during our stay. We loved the sleep number bed and the whole home ionizer was a plus as we use one at home so it made our stay even more comfortable. We will be booking this property for all our future trips to the area.

We made a very late request for a house in The Villages during the Thanksgiving holiday and were very happy to find Lisa's home for our visit. This house was clean, comfortable, and convenient. Her quick response was helpful in nailing down our plans. The bright red golf cart was a nice bonus. Great visit!

The house was really cute and a good value. The only negative was the beds were very uncomfortable and we didn’t sleep well. Woke up stiff and sore. Too hard.

Renter Beware
We have stayed at this property before. Circumstances happen and we understand that. On our 2nd night of this past stay we put a bag of trash in the garage (per instructions). The next morning we noticed that some vermin had gotten into the trash--so we made sure that our vehicle was closed securely even when parked inside the garage with the garage door closed. On the morning of check out---we opened the hatch to find vermin droppings and damage throughout our brand new vehicle. Damage includes destroyed seat belts, leather seats chewed, leather door upholstery chewed and torn off. A car with 500 miles total now smells like a rodent cage that has not been cleaned. The leather on 3 of the 4 doors will need to be replaced, along with the rubber molding for two of the windows. Seat belts will need to be replaced, the front seats need to be removed to see what damage occurred since there is missing insulation chewed below the seat. We have no car to drive as the car is at the dealer waiting for an insurance adjuster. We contacted the owner--initially--she said it was our problem, then provided us with her homeowner insurance information. The insurance company has an exclusion for this "occurrence" so this will not be covered by their insurance. The homeowner said "they would make it right." So, in 10 days nothing has happened as our car has been sitting at the dealer waiting for some resolution. We paid our full price to stay at the property. Now we will be fighting for months/years with the stress of repairs, legal costs, and other associated costs. This should not be the end-result of a vacation. BTW-VRBO also will not help as they do not cover issues that happen to your belongings while on a property. Had this been us as the owner we would have: 1. Not rented with a rodent issue. 2. If we had a rodent or any other issue we would have helped the renter in any way possible (ride, money, rental car) to make the situation right. 3. Do the right thing--when you make a mistake or something you own caused an issue, make it right. We treat others how we want to be treated but the owners have not done so. If you rent and something happens, then you might not be helped and you may never want to vacation again.

We had an amazing time in The Villages - especially in the Dario Cottage! Lisa, thank you for being so responsive and thinking of every detail. We truly felt relaxed and 'at home' during our stay. We highly recommend this rental if you are in to comfort and calm. Thanks again!

A home away from home!
We spent the whole month of November in this great, comfortable house! Lisa was great and very easy to work with and Linda the contact person who lives in the Villages was so helpful with anything we needed. The Village of Santo Domingo is a wonderful area with the neighbors being so friendly. The decorations and the amenities in this house are well done and it was clean upon arrival. I would recommend this rental to everyone for a nice quiet and fun time. Our only drawl back was the golf cart was only a 2 person and we had 3 people and since we flew there, it was our only source of transportation. So there was some places we couldn't go because we would have had to make 2 trips, so that should be taken into consideration. Thanks for a great time!

Comfortable -- an Understatement!
Although we were familiar with the area, it was truly an enjoyable experience. We weren't sure how things would go traveling with our daughter and 6 year old grandson. The home was spacious with a split floor plan which allowed privacy for all parties concerned. The home was welcoming from the moment we arrived. The décor made you feel as if you were enjoying resort living with a very relaxing atmosphere. We were definitely spoiled with the Sleep Number bed in the Master Bedroom! This was the "icing on the cake!" I thoroughly enjoy the comfort of my bed at home; however, this bed makes me know that my next purchase will be this type of bed!! Lisa and Mitch advised us of things to do and places to go during our stay and provided us with the option to enjoy many amenities in the area. Shopping and activities of every kind were close by, but we chose to stay at the house during most of our stay. When we visit the area again, we hope Lisa and Mitch's "haven" will be available for our pleasure!
