First I am an animal lover and welcome your pets. I have just earned Super Host status on my first VRBO property and have many great reviews on a charming lake villa at 8526 Tamara Court. As a 40-year resident of Bonita Springs and full-time professional Realtor for 31 years, I enjoy everything outdoors from boating to biking, and am well-connected to just about anything fun in SWFL! I am converting 8 of my annual rental units into first-class and well-priced VRBO short-term rentals with new everything!
