I absolutely loved this house so much! It is incredibly clean and our family of five enjoyed our stay when visiting the grandparents in the Villages. I look forward to going back. It is the perfect home!
Our Host communicated all the details so our trip would be perfect. Nice property with a very private backyard. It was a great long weekend! Thank you!
Clean, safe area, well-stocked kitchen. Good communication. Enjoyed the pool. Never used golf cart but it was a nice one. Big tv! Loved the remote control recliner.
High school friends for almost 60 years spent 4 days at the Villages. The house was perfect location, clean, close to all activities. Would definitely stay again
We loved this home, every detail was thought of for our enjoyment and comfort. Our host was so quick and helpful for any questions. Would rate this property 5/5 for sure.
Our stay at this home was absolutely fantastic! The property is stunning and equipped with every amenity we could have possibly needed for a comfortable and relaxing stay. We had a wonderful weekend and really appreciated the prime location—close to several pools, beautiful golf courses, and great shopping. The golf cart was a great added bonus, making it easy to get around and explore the area. We truly couldn't have asked for a better experience and would 100% stay here again. Highly recommend!
This property did not disappoint! Great location.Well appointed with everything we needed. The patio and pool area looked so nice, didn’t get to use the pool or the patio much, because of the cold during our stay. Would definitely come back again, and recommend to anyone.
We enjoyed the property. The backyard is very secluded, and the neighbors are pleasant. We had an issue with road paving, but that was out of the hands of the property managers. The unit had a bit of usage damage, but that is expected in older units. I would recommend this location to others. The property manager was responsive to requests and inquiries.
The host were amazing. At night my routine is to close up the house b4 going to bed. This house had no coverage for the sliding doors which made feel very uncomfortable. So I texted the host and they came out and put curtains up. They were amazing. We would stay there again., Has everything you need. Very clean home.
Very nice place. Well maintained and clean. If you are looking to rent a place in the villages, I highly recommend this place. Just wish it would’ve been warmer so we could use the pool.
The property was extremely clean and well stocked with items to use if needed. The pool is not accurately described. It is really just a large, unheated jacuzzi. Aside from that, the property and experience was great!

About the host
Hosted by Kristina Fricke
Hello, my name is Kristina and my husband Jan and I bought this beautiful home for our retirement. But until we get there, we want you to enjoy this peaceful green space we fell in love with. Originally we are from Germany, so we speak German fluently and would be happy to chat with you in German. We have travelled quit a bit and our experience in travel and moving between Germany and the United States multiple times has taught us how to be good hosts. We are available to our guests anytime via phone, text message and email.
Why they chose this property
Our house is named "Serene on the Green" because those are the first thoughts you will have as you enter this beautiful home. Located at the end of a cul-de-sac, our block and stucco home (San Lorenzo floor plan) captures you with its private setting and lush green space in the back of the house and throughout the large backyard. Having no rear neighbors is rare in The Villages.
"Serene on the Green" was just completely remodeled with new wood-look tile flooring throughout the whole house, brand-new all stainless steel appliances, and updated cabinets and fixtures. The house has 3 bedrooms (king in the master, queen in the guest room, and 2 twin beds in the den/office, 2 full bathrooms and offers a comfortable work space with a large desk in the den overlooking the golf course pond across the street.
But the star of the show is the wonderful screened outdoor area that leaves no wishes unanswered. A private plunge pool (about hip-deep, not heated, and no bubbles), plenty of shaded space for outdoor dining, reading, napping or just sitting back and listening to the birds.
Enjoy all The Villages has to offer while being able to retreat to your own private paradise to social-distance or work from here. If you come over for your "work-cation"you will be pleased to know that we have high-speed internet (400 Mbit), a stationary monitor for your use and a large desk for comfortable seating.
The house also features a 75 inch LG flat screen in the family room and a 55 LG flat screen TV in the master bedroom. Both with sound bar and over 125 cable channels via the Xfinity app.
Let "Serene on the Green" invite you to a relaxed state of mind, resort living at its best, and the priceless feeling of being where you want to be.
What makes this property unique
Two guests can enjoy the owners' privileges to golf for free at the 40+ executive golf courses in The Villages. All of The Villages amenities and their unlimited free use are transferred to the guests for the duration of their stay with the Lifestyle ID card. The Lifstyle ID cards will need to be purchased separately upon arrival from The Villages Sales and Information Center at Lake Sumter Landing town square at the cost of $50 for two cards. This fee goes directly to The Villages and is not included in the rent. Also, there is a small feel for using golf carts on the executive courses but you can buy a monthly pass for $20 per cart. Drivers of our golf cart need to be 18 years and older and can't have a revoked driver's license.
Of course, all linens, lots of small appliances like an air-fryer, a Keurig coffee-machine, and a blender as well as beach towels are included. A washer and dryer are at your disposal. And for your BBQ needs we have a gas Weber grill outside the screen enclosure for you. But above all we do offer the free use of our new 2021 Yamaha golf cart in the garage. However, if the golf cart is in the shop or otherwise disabled the use of a loaner is not guaranteed.
