Luxury 4 BR / 3 Bath Villa with Private Pool in Gated Resort Close to Disney
Welcome to the Disney Getaway Villa, located in the beautiful and luxurious Emerald Island Resort! This villa is “the one” for your magical vacation. Why stay in a hotel when you can get everything our villa has to offer for less? When you are done with an exhausting day at the renowned Orlando area theme parks and attractions, nothing beats coming home to a private villa with its own pool to unwind and prepare for the next day’s adventure.
The Disney Getaway has just been completely remodeled in 2023 with fresh paint, all new flooring, granite countertops, all new lighting, ceiling fans, fixtures and blinds plus new living, dining and master bedroom furniture and mattresses! The game room has been remodeled and new games added, plus a new pool table in October 2023. Finally, the landscaping was refreshed, and tropical plants added around the pool cage for increased privacy. The result is a modern and comfortable villa with a spacious open concept living space with room for up to 8 guests and fun for all ages! The perfect place to unwind after the parks, or just to spend the day enjoying Florida!
Perfect Accommodations!
The home is located near the center of the resort and boasts four bedrooms with 3 full baths and an open concept living space. Best of all, it has a lovely lanai for al fresco dining and a private heated swimming pool with attached spa and underwater lighting for evening swims - enclosed with screens to avoid the Florida bugs, and a child safety screen that can be removed (pool heat is an extra charge). The garage has been converted into a game room for fun on those non-park or rainy days.
The master bedroom is located at the rear of the house and features a king bed, walk-in closet, sliding door to the pool and an ensuite bathroom with its own door directly to the pool deck (a “must have” for quick bathroom breaks on pool days!).
The second master is very separate from the other bedrooms and living space, located in the front of the villa, and features a queen bed and an ensuite bathroom.
The remaining two bedrooms are located in the hallway down from the master - one has a twin-over-full bunk bed and the other has two twin beds... both with Disney theming. These two bedrooms share the 3rd full bath (which is also accessible from the rest of the villa).
The living space is comprised of an open family room, dining room, fully equipped kitchen and breakfast nook that overlooks the pool. The total sleeping capacity for the villa is 8. There is dining seating for 8, as well as 2 breakfast bar stools.
Please see the pictures for a floorplan diagram.
Premium Amenities!
There is a large screen TV (55”) in the family room with Roku, plus TVs in each bedroom. Each TV has cable channels and most have built in smart capabilities (Roku). There is a DVD player in the family room with a huge library of DVDs for your use. The villa includes high-speed Wi-Fi internet at no additional cost. Other “extras” abound throughout the house, including a BBQ grill is available for your use (on the lanai) as well as a highchair, stroller, pack 'n play and other family friendly amenities.
Finally, the garage is a game room is teeming with fun! It contains a full-sized pool table, a full-sized foosball table, a 50" Roku TV with a 2-player stand-up arcade console (with 5,000 games), a fun slot machine (tokens), a putting green, an Xbox 360, plus 2 bicycles and 3 sets of golf clubs for guests' use!. The laundry area is also located in the game room.
We purchased this villa from the original owners (it was formerly called the Emerald Hunny Pot Villa) in late 2022 and have been investing in improvements and enhancements. We immensely enjoy the home for our own family vacations and offer it to others for their dream vacations, too.
Please be aware that there are exterior security cameras located on the premises, including a blink video doorbell. The doorbell motion detection is turned off after arrival but activates if the doorbell is pressed. The other cameras are located on each side of the house - one to monitor the pool equipment and the other to monitor the trash bin, plus one aimed at the driveway, and do record if there is motion. We respect your privacy and there are no cameras inside or pointed at the pool area, of course!
Please carefully review the rental agreement prior to booking. Plus, make sure to request pool heat if desired (added nightly charge).

About the owner: Hi! We're Mark and Lisa and we have 3 adult sons... we all love visiting Disney World and all of the other exciting attractions in the Orlando area. Being from Southeast Michigan, it is especially nice to get away from our gray winters. Once in a while we fly down, but normally we drive and visit with family on the way down.
Why this property? We have frequently rented villas and homes in the Disney area for family vacations for years and finally purchased one of our own! After experiencing many other communities in the area we found that the absolute best is the area near the Irlo Bronson Memorial Hwy (192) and Formosa Gardens Blvd, with Emerald Island Resort being the standout location. So, when it came time to buy, we patiently waited until just the right one became available! We love visiting our villa ourselves and sharing with other guests and families for their "magical vacations".

March 2024 Family Vacation
We enjoyed 3 wonderful weeks at Disney Getaway Villa. The villa was very clean, well maintained and equipped with everything you need. It is close to all amenities such as groceries, dining ,Disney , shopping and Emerald Island Resort is very secure, safe and well maintained. The pool and spa provided hours of fun and relaxation. We especially loved having a grill available for cooking . The owner, Mark was very quick to respond to any questions or concerns and we so appreciated that. Our grandkids, ages 5, 8 and 11 joined us for a week and loved the games room!! We highly recommend this Villa and would love to return. Thanks again Mark and Lisa for allowing us to stay at your beautiful villa!

Perfect Villa close to Disney World
The Villa was beautiful, very clean and well maintained. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen contained everything that was needed. The pool and hot tub were clean, and well heated. We used the hot tub every night after a long day at the parks.Emerald Island Resort was beautiful, secure and a short drive to the parks each day. It was also close to shopping and food options.I can't say enough about Mark and Lisa. Mark was always very quick to respond with questions during the booking process, before our arrival and during our stay. The communication was superb and much appreciated.I would highly recommend this Villa to anyone looking for a great place to stay! Thank you Mark and Lisa for sharing your lovely home.

2024 Family Vacation
This Villa is superb! We had an awesome family vacation / everything you needed at the home, including baby supplies, games, etc. Mark and Lisa the owners were excellent to deal with (responded to questions quickly and always helpful with advice/information). We went on a pontoon boat ride in Tampa, Magic Kingdom, Gatorland, Seaworld, Top Golf and many golf games at Mystic Dunes. We spent many days in the pool and hot tub and nights playing pool in games room. Thank you very much for the us

The villa and Emerald Island resort was amazing.
Emerald island resort is close to everything and that includes Disneyland. The villa had everything you need and was decorated nicely. Beds were super comfy. Pool and hot tub were great and used everyday (we opted for the pool heat). I can’t say enough about this villa. We were very comfortable. The games room was fun for everyone. We’ll definitely be back. Thanks Mark.

Perfect Family Vacation Location
The villa was beautifully clean, well maintained and had comfortable beds and pillows. The kitchen had everything that we needed. The games room was awesome, as was the pool and hot tub. Location was also excellent for everything Disney, 10-20 mins to all the parks, plus several supermarkets within 10 mins drive. Our host was very responsive when messaged (thanks!). We were a family of 7; 2 couples and 3 children and there was plenty of space. We loved everything about this property and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a property for a family holiday.

Beautiful villa
We have stayed in villas in Orlando before, but this villa was superior! The gated community was great, very quiet and it felt so safe. The accommodation was clean and fixtures/fittings in excellent condition. Carpets in the bedrooms was a luxury you don’t often get in villas for hire, and made it feel so homely. The games room was a hit with all of us and provided fun away from the theme parks. Lastly the pool! This was great, and something we are missing back in the UK. Mark and Lisa were fantastic, from my initial enquiry right through to getting home. Very friendly and helpful owners who went out of their way to make our stay perfect. I would highly recommend this villa!

Happy Holidays
We couldn't fault our stay at Disney Getaway Villa, we had a great time. We were a group of four adults and two children (aged 11 and 6) and the villa provided everything we needed for a comfortable holiday. It's definitely a home from home. It was lovely to relax in the pool and jacuzzi after a hectic day in the parks and the washing machine and tumble drier were extremely handy! The keyless entry to the villa saved the worry of losing keys. We have recommended the villa and Emerald Island Resort to anyone who is thinking of visiting Florida. It really does have everything you need and the location was perfect for us. Thank you Mark and Lisa for sharing your lovely home.
