Client Testimonials

'Vilma with Marbella Design acting as our designer and project manager completely renovated our families 6,000 SF, five-bedroom, six bath home in the Town & River Subdivision of Fort Myers. The renovation included adding an extra bathroom, new hurricane rated front door and two wet bars. The project included plumbing, electrical, kitchen and bathroom cabinetry, countertops, floor and wall tile, plank flooring, painting, and lighting as well as two separate gas fireplaces.  The project started several months before Hurricane Ian hit our area. Despite the disruption caused by Ian, Marbella was able to provide subcontractors after the storm to finish our project with minimal delays'

'I have had the pleasure of working with Vilma at Marbella Design over the last four years. Our first project was the remodel of a 20 year old coach house in Miromar Lakes. We met and then we returned to our home in Rhode Island so we worked together remotely. The process went very smoothly. New wood floors were put in all the bedrooms and she was able to find the same product that was installed in the other rooms. The entire condo was painted and the master bath was remodeled.  We were extremely pleased with the final outcome. We then purchased a lot in Miromar Lakes. Of course I contacted Vilma to assist me with all the decorative details. We needed new furniture and she is a master at designing floor plans. She is hardworking and diligent. She is willing to tackle difficult projects and she is a problem solver.

We can 100 percent recommend Vilma at Marbella Design'

'I have known Vilma for around 8 years now. Vilma was the project manager on a speck build that we worked on together in Pelican Marsh. We did a complete gut renovation of a three bedroom home on a lake in high end community. New pool, new outdoor patio, removal of a enclosed lanai and a rebuild of a new lanai with

electric screens,new pavers, new fencing, new landscaping, new wood floors throughout the house added a third full bath and rebuild two other bathroom, added 3 sets of French doors and all new windows and doors. Hurricane code mahogany double front doors from South America. Added a fireplace, new roof.

Complete new kitchen including all new high end appliances. New counter tops throughout. Vilma had control of most of this project, we worked together on a lot of the products and ideas but she fully designed the kitchen and baths and oversaw the entire project while I was away traveling on business most of the time. Vilma is detailed oriented, a perfectionist and relentless with getting projects completed. I trusted her implicitly to follow through and make sure all the subs did their job on time and on budget. I can give her my highest recommendation'

'Miromar Development used Vilma's services in 2021-2022 to assist with purchasing and installing new draper panels, shades, and some furniture for Miromar Lakes Clubhouse and the Student Center at University Village in Estero, Florida. Vilma has an excellent background in interior design and is very knowledgeable about helping a client

make the correct decision in the appropriate use of fabrics and furnishings. Personally, she also has a professional yet personable demeanor and is easy to work with on projects'

'Marbella Design modernized and renovated our house in Cape Coral (2300 sq ft) from top to bottom. This included a newly designed kitchen, new bathrooms and most of the flooring. Vilma was very committed and was able to exceed our expectations. From the initial consultation in her studio in Fort Myers to the final implementation, we were very satisfied. This has prompted us to plan our next project in Cape Coral with her again. 
Many thanks and best regards'

'Myself and five other members of the Rookery Pointe Community in Estero Florida worked with Vilma as our designer for a complete redo of the main room of our clubhouse. We were ALL very happy with the entire process and with the outcome. We needed just about everything: Floors, new furniture, painting, curtains, carpets, new chandeliers and even soundproofing in our ceilings. Through it all Vilma was a kind and calm presence with great recommendations and also cautions regarding what might not be good choices. She was able to pull us all together and helped us obtain a result which we love to this day because the colors and the furniture still look fresh and timely. Vilma was just so nice to deal with. She always got back with our project leader promptly on issues and delivered on what she promised. She also kept us on time and within budget. Our group at Rookery Pointe would very much recommend Vilma to anyone needing a design specialist for their project!'
