What is it you're looking to do? If it's beautiful beaches you will be spoilt for choice
Beaches are unspoilt, plentiful, beautiful and largely empty. If you are thinking of staying for a few days which your post tends to indicate you will you may well find owners willing to rent for perhaps a minimum of four days or so but be prepared to pay the cleaning costs.
There are several rentals properties advertised on the sites listed at the top of the screen, most are in Rotonda a community at Englewood with others in Cape Coral, Naples and other Gulf Coast locations.
Happy villa hunting !!!
Longboat Key or Siesta Key off Sarasota are lovely. Going back there ourselves in Oct.
Great Beaches and Great Restaurants also.

Loved Sarasota, and Captiva & Sanibel Island - but thats a secret - don't want too many people going there and making it busy [msnwink]
Hi Bubble
As others have said very much depends what you are looking for and how far you want to travel
There are restrictions in some areas on the coast to one month minimum rental, which would not work for you.
The beaches are wonderful sandy, often deserted depending on when you plan to go and safe for swimming.
There is as much or as little to do depending on how the mood takes you.
Restaurants are plentiful to suit all pockets and certainly on the Cape Haze peninsular there are lots of marinas if boating takes your fancy.
The villas on this site will certainly be in loctions which allow 7 day rentals and some owners will offer a 3/4 day minumum stay but with a charge for the departure clean.
Happy hunting
Lynne
