Recently upgraded Luxury 5 bed executive villa with private pool & spa

My family and I rented this home for our annual family vacation from Aug. 4-11th. We were looking for a large, luxurious home to meet the needs of our family. We found everything we needed in this home. The home was as beautiful and spacious as depicted in photos. We were a group of 11 and had enough space to stay out of eachothers way. After a quick trip to the supermarket, we had everything we needed in the home. The kids (ages 5, 10 & 12) did not want to leave the house, they were happy spending the entire day out in the pool or playing games in the garage. We had an excellent time and look forward to returning next year. I would highly recommend this home to anyone looking for a "home away from home". The owner was prompt in responding to questions via emails and the pricing of the home was reasonable.

The villa was pretty much as you see in the photos - very nice with plenty of space - thank you Dianne & Ron for the use of your lovely home. The description is accurate regarding the layout & facilities. In addition there were also beach towels in the airing cupboard that you could use, so we didn't really need to take our own. The property was clean and pretty well maintained, although the previous occupants had broken the door to one of the bathrooms and had locked the safe in an open position and we could not use it. The property managers did notify us of the problem with the bathroom door and that they had ordered a new door and they took actions to try & sort out the safe by contacting the safe manufacturer. The safe was not fixed whilst we were there so we had no means of storing our belongings safely, although we never had any problems. It would have been useful to have instructions on how to set & switch off the alarm (IPG only gave us the code so we had to figure it out for ourselves) and how to use/set the safe. There is a book with information in it, but these things are not listed. We chose this villa as it had 3 double bedrooms with 3 bathrooms which suited us as we were 3 couples and there is plenty of space with the other seating areas to spread out if needed. The upstairs king suite could benefit from having an en-suite bathroom, as it was a lovely big room, but we chose not to use it due to it not having a bathroom. We would recommend this property to friends & relatives. I can recommend the Longhorn Steak house on the 192, the food was lovely with great service and the Cheesecake Factory at the Millenia Mall was also great. We had a fabulous time in Florida and look forward to our next visit.

This was our second stay at Highlands Reserve. We loved the villa last summer (2009) and returned for a winter break in January 2010.

The villa layout makes it idealy for family living, the pool is super. Our party inlcudes two golfing enthusiasts who play the course every second day.

I can highly recommend the North Hampton Drive villa.
