About the host: I am married with an 18 year old we like to go to Orlando Yearly and explore.

Why this property? I loved the development and the location easy to get all over Florida with a car. Lots of things to do in the near by area. Most guests do the theme parks but there is so much more to see and do in Florida.

Speaks: English

Guestbook comments from the host:

We were a group of eight golfers on our annual March treck for some early rounds. We have stayed in a lot of different homes in Orlando before and this one rates up there with the best of them. In the past we had trouble with heated pools and hot tubs but this was awesome. The water was perfect. The accommodation were excellent and the whole rental procedure was the easiest I ever had. Berni is an excellent hostess and the property is absolutely perfect for any group vacationing in the Orlando-Kissimmee area. I highly recommend it for golfers, large familys or anyone wanting lot's of extra room and top notch amenities. 5Star!!!

Fantastic. Everything we needed and more !

We stayed at Berni's home from home in July 2018 and had a fantastic time. There were 7 of us (five adults and 2 teenagers). There was loads of room for us all in the villa and some of the bedrooms we didn't even need to use.Located in Emerald Island Resort (a quiet secure gated community) and around 5 minutes drive to all the amenities and shops you will need. Great cooking facilities if you want to prepare your own meals and a lovely pool to relax in after a busy day at the theme parks. We all slept like logs at night in the comfy beds.Disney is around 10 minutes away and the rest of the big theme parks are easily got to. There is a huge Walmart around 5 minutes drive from Emerald Island Resort which had everything we needed for our stay. The Outback steakhouse is a couple of minutes drive and it's yum !!All in all we had a fantastic holiday and the villa had everything we needed and more. When we book again we won't be staying anywhere else.

Thank you so much for your comments you and your family are very welcome anytime. The Walmart is new it only opened in 2018 (just before you arrived I think) , very handy and it even has a gas station. I would recommend next time you visit Orlando you go to celebration for a nice walk around , look in the shops and I can recommend some very nice restaurants there too. One of my favourite places to visit when we go.
