I stayed at Banana Bay 2 nights last week while exploring Punta Gorda across the harbor for a possible relocation from VA. I could have stayed two weeks or even longer and been delighted! It's right across the bridge and right on the water with a 500-ft dock, fun, funky tropical grounds/decor and beautiful sunsets . I lived in FL... More

We spent one night at this amazing little motel that is truly a HIDDEN GEM! The setting is gorgeous...the grounds are reminiscent of "old Florida" ....and the sunset was spectacular.

I needed a couple day break from taking care of some family business in Venice and this was the perfect place.

Warm and friendly staff made us feel welcome. Loved having breakfast outside with a great view of the bay and pier. The weekly happy hour was a real treat. We stayed and watched the sunset with some other guests, and traded restaurant recommendations.

I had no prior information about the place, but found it on the internet since we were looking at real estate between there and Fort Myers. While we did not spend a lot of time relaxing there, it was a fabulous home base. It was... More

Due to a great airfare deal, we ended up in the Punta Gorda area, but actually stayed the entire 3 days at Banana Bay Motel. There was no reason to leave this comfortable and charming property, except to buy food so we could pepare our meals on site (in the efficiency kitchen and especially on the outdoor grill). So many... More
