Fantastic Christmas Break in Gorgeous Villa

Ant London London, UK
Review Submitted: January 12, 2009 Date of Stay: December 2008
Special thanks to Dawn for the excellent communication we had when booking her villa, This was most reassuring. The villas description and the luxury seen in the photos is exactly what we found when we arrived. We were a large group of 14 but found the villa was large enough for people to have their own space. The free internet was particuarly useful in researching parks/restaurants and for the younger members of our group wanting catch up on their facebook accounts.

The pool and spa are excellent. Very clean and lovely outside space for breakfast.

We had quite a hectic visit to Orlando cramming in as much as we could in 10 days however had we had longer the villa is a great place to chill out and relax. The complex itself is luxurious and other residents friendly with a real international mix of Americans and Europeans. The tennis courts are excellent and we took advantage of the tennis rackets provided at the villa.

The villa itself is in an excellent location and very easy to find. Very convienient for the Theme Parks and shopping Outlets. Safe gated accomodation with friendly security staff. For taxis mention that the property is off old lake wilson road and they require the full street address.

Mentioned by others Black Angus Steak House is one of the better local restaurants.

All in all our stay could not have been better. Book this villa you will not be disappointed.

Anthony
Owner's Response: Thankyou Ant from London, I do agree communication is very important and i truly want all my guest to have a fantastic holiday, for many people Disney is a holiday of a lifetime and it is important that the accommodation matches up to those expectations.!

GREAT TIME HAD BY ALL!

Review Submitted: November 17, 2009 Date of Stay: October 2009
I would just like to say what a wonderful time we had in Florida, everything was just perfect. Windsor Hills is the perfect location for Disney as it is so close to everything, eating places and all the attractions are on your doorstep. Windsor Hills itself is both beautiful and peaceful just the tranquil setting required for such a busy holiday. When it comes to Villa's I have to say this is the best one we have ever stayed in yet, and we have stayed in many. There were 12 of us in all with very different needs and I can tell you they were all fulfilled and catered for, the games room was a real winner with the kids and adults I have to say, the arcade game held their competative nature nicely. The pool was fabulous, every holiday in this state should be equipped with a pool and a safety gate which is so necessary with little ones. The comfort of the beds and furnishings was just sublime. But it is the little things that count also with so many different people, being able to call home for free was great for old and young alike, keeping in touch even while on holiday is a very prescious bonus and was very important to us. Also the television channels were far better than we are used to and the ability to record channels while you were out gave you great freedom. I know it's a holiday but some of us still like our tv to relax to. And the internet of course for those teenagers. The kitchen is also well equipped to should you want to prepare a proper meal which we did. All and all I cannot fault this Villa or the ease with which we booked it. No problems at all. Look no further just book here!

Great Family Holiday

jj and bj Scotland UK
Review Submitted: October 20, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We had the most wonderful holiday in this Vacation Home. Although my time is limited I just had to spare the time to say thank you to Dawn the Homeowner for her wonderful manner and her communication and response time. Everything went wonderfully smoothly from my first enquiry to her, complete to the end of my holiday.
Anyone pondering on whether to make a decision should make it here and now! This home is superb, you feel the homely experience from the minute you enter the home, very spacious, comfortable, beautiful furniture, the tv is huge as it should be with an array of sattelite channels complete with pause, record,play and so on, who'd of thought you could get all this while on holiday. The pool was a real hit with us all along with the games room which is packed full of things to enjoy, and you can call home for FREE mostly to anywhere. There is nothing more you could want from a Vacation Home, the other review's left by previous guests have not exaggerated when they have mention the comfort of the beds, they truly are wonderful. I would absolutely without hesitation recommend this home to anyone wanting to have a vacation here, also this homeowner offer's home visits such as a masseur whom gave me the most fantastic massage without my even leaving the home, you can have a hairdresser visit too if you wanted to.!!!

Favourite Orlando villa!

Kate3108 Ireland
Review Submitted: October 1, 2009 Date of Stay: May 2009
We (2 adults + 4 kids 10 to 18) stayed in this villa for two weeks in June 2009 and loved it! We have been to Orlando a number of times and this has been our family’s favourite villa. We would be reluctant to stay anywhere other than Windsor Hills anyway as the location is so convenient for Orlando’s theme parks and shops. The resort facilities (swimming pool, gym, tennis courts, playground..) are great too – even having a small onsite shop was handy and something you just don’t see much in the US where you usually have to drive everywhere. The villa itself was very comfortable (especially the beds) and had everything we needed for our stay. The games room was a big hit with the teenagers and the pool was used several times a day and was lovely and warm. So, all in all, I would definitely recommend this villa and we will try to stay here on future trips to Orlando.

Comfortable Accommodations

Review Submitted: September 8, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
We had an enjoyable and comfortable stay in this vacation home. Windsor Hills is a very nice gate community and it is conveniently located near area attractions and shopping. The owner was very nice to work with and she gave great customer service; she quickly replied to any inquiries and emails that were sent. We all enjoyed our stay and had a very relaxing vacation. Thanks for your friendly customer service, it's been a pleasure.
Owner's Response: Hi, to all future guests, your experience is very important to us and we will endevour to make your stay what it should be, a fantastic holiday!!

Disney Magic

fi and rog Manchester, England
Review Submitted: March 16, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
This house was simply perfect! It certainly helps to have such a lovely place to stay and relax in on those days when you can't face the parks. You really don't have the energy for the parks every day, well we didn't anyway. We operated a system of a day in and a day out. Sometimes the Teenager's we had with us who lack any amount energy at all wanted to stay in the home every day, have a swim which all the kids and adults did every day, either the kids would use it early in the morning and i mean early before we left for the parks or later when we returned and some days when we were in, all day. It is worth mentioning that there are a number of things to do on Windsor Hills for those days home too including the community pool with slides that we did use a couple of times. The owner's of this property also had some tennis rackets here in the games room so we utilized the Tennis Courts too. The kids were in and out of the games room trying to beat each other's high scores on the arcade machine especially, and on the basket ball game too. Also the arcade game is free and this same arcade game is in windsor hills club house and costs 50 cents a go, and you know how easy it is to die on these games, so that was a blessing. We were a big party of 12 and the house was very spacious and comfortable, i would like to have taken the bedrooms home with me, especially the two Master Bedrooms, we had to fight for them, and we were the adults. Also the enormous TV in the family room was great and the fact that there are t.v/dvd's in every bedroom too was wonderful. You really know when you have had a good holiday when you don't want to go home, and staying in lovely accommodation with a home from home experience really adds to your whole holiday experience. You had to drag me out of there. It's also worth noting that these owner's have provided
loads of dvd's to watch and a good number of books to read. They have also provided a lot of information by way of a guestbook that lists good eating places and other places of interest to visit. Like Gator land for instance. I really would not hesitate to recommend this property, it might not be the cheapest but having stayed in others previous years i can't tell you what the difference is. It really is worth paying that bit extra to get that bit extra, some properties are really sparse and don't offer the greatest in comfort and facilities, but this one provides it all. Thanks for a great holiday!!
Owner's Response: To all future guests who are looking for a property to stay in need look no further, there are no better recommendations than that of previous guest who have visited us.!

Holiday Heaven

debbie dory England
Review Submitted: March 4, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2008
Just a quick note to say how wonderful our stay was here, the accommodation, the close proximity to Disney, everything was just fab!
The whole booking process and holiday experience was second to none,
would definately recommend staying here, oh and the games room was a real bonus, it had everything, the arcade game was brilliant, definately a home from home experience and truly memorable. Will definately come back again next year
Owner's Response: Fantastic! so pleased to know that what we have been trying to achieve so far as guest satisfaction and repeat bookings are concerned have become a real success. Only when people are really happy with their vacation will they wish to return for a repeat performance, what more could we ask for.

Excellent family accommodation for everyone.

kibbutz England
Review Submitted: November 19, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
We stayed here for our Summer Holidays and I can't tell you what a great time we all had, as i have said in the title. Everyone is really catered for in this home from young to old. This Villa is beautiful, so comfortably furnished, the problem being it was so nice we really had to drag ourselves out every day. The Games Room was great enterntainment for the kids and adults alike, they had to have it on rota. The pool is also a must for these holidays for all concerned. I would definately recommend a Villa holiday with a pool as a must for these sorts of holiday, It can be so relaxing after a busy day out or just an opportunity to have a day in as the parks are so hectic and exhausting. There was a library of DVD's to watch for all ages and a wonderful huge TV to watch them on and tv's in all the rooms when we were fed up of each other. Also the owner's have created a little library of books to read and magazines they really have given this home a personal touch - it really was like home from home. We particularly wanted to write a review for this home because it was so nice to book a home that promised everything and actually delivered it when you got there. And I dont think that we have ever stayed anywhere that has delivered what the advert said it would befor now. So 5 out of 5 for us we wouldn't hesitate to re-book this home if we ever came back to Florida. Something else to mention when people are choosing where to book a home for closeness to Disney. Windsor Hills truly is just a 5 minute drive down the road. so many places aren't. I hope this is helpful to future guests as i know we were influenced by reading reviews as they are so helpful.
Owner's Response: I would like to thank all guests who have written a review and encourage all future guests to also write one. Review's are really helpful to everyone, ourselves as homeowners and travellers who are guided by other guests experience of the home they are looking at. So to all future travellers please do take time to read and write future reviews.
Thanks!

Excellent Property at Windsor Hills

Dionne & Stuart Leicestershire, England
Review Submitted: November 6, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008
We've just spent 6 days staying in the property at Windsor Hills. We've been to Florida lots of times and this property is perfect for it's location, very close to the Disney Attractions - which is actually quite important because you don't want to be spending hours every day travelling back and forth. It also has a good stretch of shops, resturants and supermarkets closeby on the 192.

The Leisure Facilities at Windsor Hills are excellent, we really enjoyed sitting in the sun whilst the children played in the pool. We didn't bother heating our pool, by the end of October it was a bit cold, the children still used it - but the water facilites at the resort are so good with heated pools that we found it better going there.

The property has every facility you could want and is very spacious, we had 9 people in our party and it still felt very big, plenty of space with a nice pool area at the house.
The games room was a big hit with the children, especially the Arcade Game but it also had a Pool Table, Table Tennis and Darts and Basketball areas.

The property looks exactly as it does in the photographs, our 6 days weren't long enough - if we go back in the future we'd save ourselves hours of looking for a suitable property on the internet and just go back here, as it had everything we needed.
Owner's Response: Thankyou to all those who write reviews and to future guests who can be guided by them, we have high standards and aim to offer all guests wonderful accommodation to enhance their holiday experience.

Luxurious home away from home!

walldey united kingdom
Review Submitted: October 27, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2007
I've visited Florida on many occasions but have always stayed in a hotel. For those of you who have never considered renting a house...do it!!
This property is luxurious yet feels like home from the moment you open the door. It's fully equiped with everything I would ever have needed. The house is decorated to a fantastic standard, the bedrooms are lovely and all individually decorated, we all slept exceptionally well!
The games room is great for those moments when you're back from the parks and fancy an evening at home,and this house really did feel like home.
The pool is fantastic, a very good size and the jacuzzi is a lovely addition to the pool area. I can't wait to go back!!
I don't think I will ever stay in a hotel again in Florida, this house has my vote for every future visit to orlando! Windsor Hills in itself is a great place to stay, you feel safe as there are secure gates in and out of the estate and the ameneties are great!
Don't miss a visit to Black Angus steak house just a 5 minute drive away, fantastic food and excellent staff who are warm and friendly!!
A fantastic holiday in a very memorable property, thankyou to the owners for thinking of everything!
Owner's Response: Again, i am thrilled when someone enjoys our property and obviously their holiday, i know for all you future guests a review can sway you and give you a good idea of what to expect and i can only thank the guests who go to the effort of writing a review in the first place. So please do give us a call and book your holiday with us for the personal touch.
