The patio and courtyard villas are all very similar: Open the front door into the dining or living room, kind of a wide hallway / shotgun through the living space to the lanai out back (CYV) or the back wall / bedrooms (PVs).

Compare that to the cottages and villas in Latitude Margaritaville with more variety and a better layout. I wish The Villages would incorporate some of these soaring features and floor plans instead of the very cookie-cutter model we have available to us now.

I find the amenities and d@mn near everything else better at The Villages, but the floorpans? Meh. Boring.

This link is to one of their cottages, the "Dreamsicle" I believe:

Ick! Couldn’t get past the blue interior. I’m sure it’s nice, but yuck!
