Thanks!
I just bought a patio villa in one of the new villages. This past May and June I happened to rent a courtyard villa in Hemingway. As a single woman I felt so isolated and very much alone while in the house. I felt that every window faced a high white fence and I very rarely saw anyone in the neighborhood unless they were getting in or out of their car or golfcart. I am really looking forward to sitting on my patio out front and seeing something besides high white walls.
Of course if I were married, I might enjoy the privacy afforded the CYV but for now my preference would be for a patio villa. Good luck with your decision.
