A lovely homely villa with great style

The villa is at the Southern Dunes Resort which is gated and adds a sense of security which meant that we had a lovely relaxing time. The bed is very comfortable and the shower is the best we have had in the USA. There is a nice pool area which is sunny from about 10.00 all day. Will definitely stay again.

Everything you need

We enjoyed a very nice stay at this very well appointed bungalow condo. It comes with everything you need in a VERY QUIET and secure gated community. The fully equipped kitchen has all you'd need and there is plenty of space in this 3 bedroom, 2 bath unit. The outdoor patio deck is huge and the pool is kept at a nice, cooling temperature. The location is great - close to grocery stores and amenities and an easy drive into Orlando or destinations south. This villa is highly recommended and I would stay here again should the opportunity arise.

Amazing Florida Property!

This property was absolutely perfect for our family of 6. Consisting of three adults and three children between the ages of 6-8. The home layout was perfect, the decor was beautiful, the home was equipped with everything you could possibly need; dishes, starter supplies, linens, towels, beach towels, etc. We were all impressed with the beauty of the home, the location, and wonderful gated community that provided a sense of security. The home offers everything you need for a vacation to Florida and is conveniently located near all of the theme parks. Definitely a 10 star home and hosts!!! We hope to have the opportunity to rent this home in the future when we return to Florida.

Fun vacation home marize your overall impression of the property

It looked exactly like the pictures online! Spotless. Which is always appreciated. The main bedroom had an extremely comfortable bed. And the pool was so nice every morning. There were play toys and lounge chairs. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you would need. The neighborhood is quiet and felt very safe. The only issue I could find was no water pressure in the showers. Other than that it was a wonderful vacation home.

Wow what a holiday villa. We have been coming to Florida for over 30 years and this villa has been the best we have stayed in by far. The villa is very clean, tidy and is situated in a great location with a great community feel. It has everything you might need during your stay; it’s a home from home. We would most definitely recommend it to anyone and will be looking to rebook again.

Beautiful Villa!!!

A total gem! There is a Walmart right outside the gates and plenty of food options nearby. The villa is completely updated and tastefully decorated. The king bed was super comfortable as was the oversized sectional in the living room. The outdoor loungers were also quite comfortable. Lynn was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We enjoyed our days by the pool and wish to return in the near future! The only suggestion I would make would be to have a few bare essentials on hand or at very least inform renters that they will have to supply most everything. We did not have soap in the bathroom upon arrival and there was only salt, pepper and a small amount of olive oil in the kitchen cabinets.
