Why this property? We quickly learned that traveling with kids becomes exponentially better when you have a kitchen, space to spread out, and entertainment available... And so we created Marauder's Mansion: a place for families and friends to have the best possible time together.
I'm an interior designer, and have always loved and respected the work of the Imagineers (Disney's incredible design team). Our Orlando home is my tribute to the fun, imaginative design that makes Disney and Universal so special. My background in commercial interior design guided material choices - cleanliness, functionality, and comfort are our top priorities. And may I say: Our Keetsa mattresses are the MOST comfortable!
We'd love to host you, and promise we will do all we can to ensure you and yours have as great a time at Marauder's as we do! I'm here to answer any questions you may have.

TAKE ME BACK THERE!!
I can't think of a better family vacation we've had! The house was beyond expectation. We didn't really need to go to the parks but of course we did - they're so close by. The house is like a Disney property with it's amazing decor and there's SO much to do! The adults were crazy in the arcade (the best games!!) and the kids loved the secret Moana room and slide and Toy Story ball pit for our toddler. We have a teen gamer who was thrilled with the Harry Potter gaming area when the little kids would leave him alone! Mostly it was just great to have all our family there. My parents were so comfortable in the first floor suite. Eating breakfast by the beautiful pool gave a wonderful vacation feel. The house was immaculate and the beds were so comfy - not like hotel beds - like our own beds. We had everything we needed for our little toddler too, every piece of brand new equipment. We used the monitor, baby tub and stroller. There was a child safety fence around the pool. We saved a fortune on hotel rooms and food since we could all stay at such a great rate and eat a lot of our meals in which of course is also easier with little kids than always going out. Thank you to our hostess, Leslie! She was easily available when we any questions and she had a lot of parent tips for visiting the parks. We will be back!! We're thinking of doing an adult trip for my husband's big birthday coming up!

Thank you for your kind words, Angela! We're looking forward to your next stay with us :)
Wonderful stay!
Thank you Marauders Mansion for the amazing stay in Orlando! We booked three days two days were spent at parks and it was a relief to come back to this oasis. On our third day we spent the whole day just hanging around the house and we loved it. Game room, movie theater, pool, we used it all. Will definitely book again for our next trip.

A Vacation Inside the Vacation
It takes a long day of park hopping to understand the magic of Maurauder's, but after our first day at Disney, we got it. The Mansion is one part oasis and one part vacation extender. A trip to Orlando for my family means parks by day and exhaustion by night. But children, I've realized, are self-charging AI overloads who weren't programmed to compute exhaustion. Maurauders is a battery charger for us and Vacation 2.0 for them. While we're hanging poolside, the kids free-play in the Marauder's arcade. (The games are the commercial-grade versions that are actually in arcades, and the arcade itself looks like a scene from a Star Wars planet.) Some nights, we all watched movies in the RIDICULOUS home theater. (It's nothing like any home theater we've ever seen -- more like a movie theater in a home.) Even the bedrooms are entertainment. One has a slide, which prefers kids to adults...don't ask me how I know that :). At night, once the kids were in bed, we found ourselves back in the arcade, where we turned into kids ourselves. The thing we liked most about the place is that it has a vibe. It's as comfortable as a home but aspirational like a hotel. A trip to Disney is all about the kids, but what if it can be about the parents too? Maybe that's the actual magic of Marauder's.

Ruby thank you for this wonderful review!! We loved hosting you and your family, and hope to have you back soon.
Favorite vacation spot!
This is our family’s second time staying here and we had the absolute best time (we actually had booked our second stay DURING the first because we could not wait to go back!). Leslie is an amazing host— so responsive and provides all the information you need for your stay! Every room is so well decorated, comfortable, and also fun for every age. Our kids loved the Toy Story room and the moana room/ play room which also has an indoor slide and hidden passage play area! Everything a family could need is here and any mom will appreciate all the extra touches- two strollers, pack n plays, toddler cups, pre logged in apps on TVs, cups for all ages, even light switch covers! Leslie truly goes above and beyond as a host and is readily available if you have questions. The movie theatre was also a favorite and we spent our nights relaxing in there. The pool is beautiful and the outdoor furniture is comfortable. Also included are pool toys and floats! The house is walking distance to the club pool which is also wonderful. Our kids loves going in the pool, splash pad area, and having lunches and popsicles pool side! We absolutely loved our stay and cannot wait to return!!!
