The community of Rotonda Meadows is located on the Placida Peninsula - so aptly named because “Placida” is derived from the Latin word for calm, peaceful or tranquil. Within Rotonda Meadows this special homesite is in close proximity to million and multi-million dollar homes in the Estates of Gasparilla Preserve and Boca Grande. Take a short drive (4.3 miles) to the Boca Grande Causeway. As you cross over to the island the gorgeous turquoise waters of the Gulf will enchant you. Spend an afternoon on one of the beaches and you will truly be refreshed. If you desire a boating lifestyle, there is a public boat ramp at Placida Park just a 3.6 mile drive, then launch your boat and you are all set for a day of adventure. From the boat ramp you will access Placida Harbor and the Gulf of Mexico. Rotonda Meadows is a very special community conveniently located close to great shopping, restaurants from casual to gourmet, world class Golf Courses, quaint Olde Englewood Village, Manasota Key, historic Punta Gorda and Fisherman's Village (by boat or car), and of course the beautiful Gulf Beaches of Boca Grande! Take your boat out to Boca Grande for the day or take a short drive to the Boca Grande Causeway to enjoy spectacular sunsets and all that fabulous Boca has to offer.
