Perfect Covid-19 Vacation

With Social Distancing Built In

When we were designing our property and home 5 years ago we wanted to create a beautiful vacation property with ample space inside and out. Seclusion and Privacy were on the top of the list.

We chose a location on the very West side of South Venice abutting
Shamrock Nature Park and the Venetian Waterway & Bike Trail.

Looking due West from our backyard you will find no civilization, just a nature park, the Venetian Waterway, Caspersen Beach, and the Gulf of Mexico just 1000 yds from our backdoor.

Our home, located on a dead end street sits on a fenced-in double lot of 16,000 sq ft which gives us twice the space and privacy between our neighbors.

Our western facing private heated salt water pool and Jacuzzi is enclosed in a bug free 1350 sq ft screened in pool cage and covered lanai. You don’t have to share this huge space with anyone, it is all yours.

We have landscaped our property with dozens of beautiful tropical shrubs, palms, bamboo, and flowering plants creating a private tropical oasis. Cool off in the pool, take an amazing therapeutic hydro massage, soak up the sun, and prepare and cook meals rain or shine. 5 Star Resorts don’t afford you this amenity all to yourself.

Clean Air & Pure Water

No Covid-19

Number two on our list was to create an atmosphere where one could come to rejuvenate, to heal physically from the tough riggers of ones life. Everyone would benefit from a sparkling clean home free from dirt, pollen, bacteria and viruses.

We selected a high quality HVAC system that would provide whole house air conditioning, and further completely clean, disinfect and purify not only the air it circulates but would seek out and destroy all organic matter within the whole house no matter how small it was. This includes the Covid-19 Virus!

Just as important as purified air is purified water. We invested in a top line whole house reverse osmosis water purification system. Our deep well water goes thru many different processes that filters, cleans, softens, and purifies our water to the level of high quality bottle water.

Whole House Reverse Osmosis Water Filtration System

This pure water comes out of every faucet in the house including the laundry and the ice maker. No need to purchase bottled water, fill your coffee pot right from the kitchen tap. And no sulfur smell in the shower, your clothes are washed in pure water and the dishwasher cleans with no spots.

This amenity provides your body, inside and out with pure water free from contamination, bacteria and viruses as well as greatly prolongs the life of all the plumbing, fixtures and appliances that use water.

Villa Ocala was built for Seclusion, Privacy, Healthy Amenities in an extremely sanitary environment including the air you breath and the water you drink.

A perfect vacation destination retreat during a pandemic or not. We invite you to experience a healthy, luxurious, and safe vacation.

Villa Ocala’s large covered lanai and screened pool cage faces due west. This allows you to soak up the warm afternoon sun while relaxing in tropical seclusion. Or maybe you would rather to keep cool in your own private salt water pool/jacuzzi.

Later, you can cook your favorite meal on the outdoor grill. Set a table outside in the bug free pool cage, and dine outside to Florida’s incredible Creamsicle Sunsets.  The western exposure featuring Natures Five Star Show is a huge perk that enhances Villa Ocala’s greatest asset of all; Its Location.

Wake up to your morning coffee and start your day in peace and quiet out on the pool deck. The morning shade welcomes you to sit and enjoy the birds and other creatures that live in the Shamrock Nature Park.

Very Western Edge of Humanity

Villa Ocala’s backyard facing the due west sunsets of the Gulf of Mexico will isolate you completely from the rest of South Venice’s residential neighborhoods. This exclusive privacy provides you with a peaceful, quiet, and tropical ambiance that will make you feel as if you are the only one around. Not very many vacation destinations offer this seclusion from all things human.

Premium Luxury Destination

You can’t under estimate the value of Villa Ocala’s greatest asset. Its location will affect your daily enjoyment of SW Florida. Being on the very western edge of South Venice suburbia, only 1000 yards from the beach, and bordering the Venetian Waterway bike trail offer you seclusion, privacy and adventure at your doorstep. All of this and its western exposure define the undeniable credentials of a Premium Luxury Vacation Destination.

Adventure and Seclusion

Seclusion
Casperson Beach shark tooth capital of the world

Your journey starts just 1150 yards from this very secluded beach. Villa Ocala’s greatest asset is it’s location. A quick glance on the map shows that Villa Ocala is on a dead end side street on the very western edge of South Venice. It also borders the northern boundary of Shamrock Nature Park on the Venetian Waterway.

Walk just 100 paces from Villa Ocala’s back yard across a trail to the west thru Shamrock Park and you will be amazed at what you see. The curtain lifts to an enormous big sky view of the Intracoastal Waterway. This canal was built around WWII and offers many different remote adventures to partake in.

Walkers and bikers use the trail on either side for exercise and seclusion. Park benches are found every so often to sit and relax and view the spectacular sunsets. To the south is Shamrock Nature park with trails, tennis and basketball courts and tropical wilderness. Journey to the north and you will find the trail stretches 30 miles all the way to Sarasota thru downtown Venice. 

Or bike north a mile, cross the Circus Bridge and ride that mile back south. You can enter Caspersen Beach State Park and stop for a workout in a jungle setting. Then take an amazing bike ride down the deserted Cay trails where the curtain opens again to an even more spectacular scene. The “Shark Tooth Capital of the World”, Caspersen Beach.

Find adventure and seclusion, witness vivid Florida sunsets, or tranquil tropical warm waters just steps from Villa Ocala’s backyard. And it is all free for the taking!

gorgeous designer kitchen

Gorgeous Designer Kitchen

With mounting frustration and disappointment, I have rented vacation homes in the past that promise everything and fall short….very short.  Lumpy mattresses, broken coffee makers, and missing skillets….!

The Ocala kitchen is designed to meet all of your cooking/ food prep needs.  All the equipment is new; there are full sets of cutlery and pans, cutting boards, mixers, measurers and even vintage cook books.  The gas grill has propane and a backup tank….!  The coffee station will jump start a great day every day!

Besides being supremely functional, the Ocala kitchen is gorgeous, with gleaming, seamless, dramatic Brazilian granite and dark chocolate pear cabinets that stir up your appetite….The water right out of the tap is reverse osmosis filtered and is as pure as high quality bottled water. You will serve your effervescent drinks and culinary delights on unbreakable Corelle and stemware.

And there are so many options where to dine: in the kitchen nook on Leider’s Rattan seating, on the spacious lanai under cover or under the stars…or you can bring your picnic to the canal which is 100 steps away!
Villa Ocala’s gorgeous designer kitchen is different and better than most: it  lets you feed your body and soul!

Form meets function in Villa Ocala’s gorgeous designer kitchen. Custom chef’s kitchen, fully equipped and with elegant indoor or outdoor dining.  Come cook and dine in paradise.

Caspersen Beach’s Solitude

Behind Caspersen Beach

Caspersen Beach is 1000 yards, (as the crow flies) from Villa Ocala.  A 20 minute bike ride will get you there up the Venetian Waterway, over the Circus bridge, and back down the west side of the Venetian Waterway to Caspersen Beach Park entrance.

Caspersen Beach is located on the Gulf side of an isolated Cay that

Isolated and Remote

you can hike or bike down to reach the most isolated areas of the beach.  This Cay is untouched and undeveloped.  If you catch this beach on the right day, you may find complete seclusion and isolation.

Known as the “Shark Tooth Capital of the World” Caspersen Beach is first on our biking destinations, and is said to be as it was 500 years ago.   This is hands down our favorite beach and always champions the feeling of “awesome” everytime we go there.
