Disney Vacation with the Grandparents
Submitted: April 13, 2013
Stayed: February 2013
The condo was clean, comfortable, affordable, and the location was ideal for travel back-and-forth to the Disney parks. We had four adults and two children in our party and there was plenty of room for the six of us. The kitchen was functional but not very well appointed in terms of cookware and utensils. The resort grounds were pretty, well-maintained, and the Clubhouse was an added convenience. I have a few complaints, however. First, check-in was sloppy and disorganized. I had to request check-in info from the owner at the last minute because it was never sent at booking. Some of the information I received was incorrect, specifically, the code for the lift gate to get through security was wrong! Next, I paid for pool heat and there was clearly a disconnect between the owner and management as the pool was not heated and it took four days and to fix. The townhome needs more poolside seating. There was only one lounger which was in bad condition...no table, no chairs. Most of the surrounding units had much better outdoor seating options. Lastly, and this is not a complaint but more of an observation, the unit is situated very far away from the clubhouse and resort pool. It's defintely a long walk for kids. Despite all this, we had a good trip and enjoyed our stay.

Owner's Response: I am happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay. I hope my comments will help you and other guests to have an even better experience with us in the future.
1. "kitchen (cookware and utensils) was not well appointed"
Having accommodated hundreds of satisfied guests over the past 4 years, yours is the first complaint regarding our kitchen. I cannot speak to what you are accustomed to in a vacation property, but I can assure you that we are licensed, and our kitchen amenities exceed Florida state regulations. If there is anything specific you were lacking (over and above the dinner plates, dessert plates, dinner bowls, glasses, wine glasses, coffee mugs, pots, pans, pot holders, placemats, serving jugs, serving dishes, baking sheets, utensils, spatulas, knives, wine bottle openers, fruit peelers, cheese graters, small appliances, etc.), the onsite management company is always available to assist you.
2. "check-in info was never sent at booking"
We sent your confirmation and check-in information via email at 2:57pm CST on Dec 9, 2012 immediately upon receiving payment from you. When you contacted us later in Feb to say you had not received it, we immediately re-sent that same information to you.
3. "the gate code was wrong"
The gate code supplied to you with both of your confirmations was "2**0" (blocked here for security reasons). That code was correct, and continues to be used by our guests without difficulty. Regardless, should any guest have difficulty there is 24 hr gate security, and just as you discovered, all confirmed guests are granted access.
4. "the pool was not heated and took four days to fix"
We investigated this immediately when you reached us on Feb 20, and discovered that the pool heat had in fact been turned on prior to your arrival. The issue stemmed from unseasonably cool temp’s during your stay, not from any faulty equipment or mismanagement. Once the ambient temp drops below 55F, the heaters automatically shut off. Although we cannot control outside temp’s, we do understand your disappointment.
5. "only one lounger…"
You will see from our website photos that we have added new patio furniture for future guests to enjoy.
6. "the unit is situated very far away from the clubhouse"
Many of our guests appreciate the fact that this property is close, but not adjacent to, the Clubhouse. As a result, you can enjoy low foot traffic and privacy around our property.

We enjoyed our stay in November 2012 at this townhome-especially enjoyed the heated pool. Very convenient to Disney and I-4. Owner was very easy to communicate with and took care of our requests. Good amount of space for the 6 adults and 3 kids we had in our group staying there. Will definitely try to stay here again!

FANTASTIC Townhouse!!!
Submitted: October 23, 2012
Stayed: October 2012
The townhome was fantastic! We all had a great time! The pool was
WONDERFUL and lots of room on the patio for everyone. The condo was very
clean , well decorated, and the new hardwood floors also looked great! The dark-wood furniture added to the richness of the townhome. 4BRs and 3 WRs provided us with ample space. Master bedroom was awesome and very roomy with lots of closet and drawer space to unpack for a comfortable stay, and the ensuite had a fairly large shower with sliding glass doors... nice and bright in there. The beds were very comfortableand each bedroom had a TV, which was great as a wind-down at the end of the day. The grounds of the complex were beautiful and well maintained.
A short drive to the highway allowed us to easily head to the beaches,
Disney, and Universal Studios, with numerous restaurants close by as well.
This beautiful resort was far enough from any major roads to allow for a
quiet stay! Hoping to return one day, and will definitely pass along
recommendation for this specific townhome to friends!!!

This condominium is by far the best place I've ever stayed in whilst vacationing. As advertised, it is situated close to a main highway making everything, including Disney World, accessible within minutes.
The gated community which it resides in, is quiet, clean and extremely private. It's located far enough away from highways and roads so that the only noise you hear are a variety of birds and the rustling of palm trees. With manicured lawns and golf courses close by, it's easy to feel as if you are a privileged country club member. The condo unit itself only adds to this feeling. This unit boasts 4BRs with 3WRs and has a spacious, open-area concept, LR, DR and kitchen. Having access to the well-equipped kitchen allowed us to purchase fresh seafood and prepare our own dinners in the evenings- something never before considered when staying in a hotel.
The pool is completely enclosed in a gazebo-style surround, eliminating any need
for bug spray! Hours will pass by unnoticed while relaxing and gazing up at the sky in this immaculate pool area.
If you are planning on vacationing in Florida anytime in the future, definitely consider this property as I know it will not disappoint. Since my experience, this condo will undoubtedly be my sole choice for future holidays.

What a great property. My family and I stayed here and were really impressed with this home. Needless to say we saved a ton over the big chain hotels. This home is spacious and very tastefully decorated, the furniture and floors must be all brand new because there was no wear or tear on ANYTHING !!!
Located in a gated community, we felt like we moved into a brand new home, what a nice surprise, usually the pictures look much better than the actual, not the case here. We have 3 children aged 5, 9 and 13. The pool has a removable gate around it so we felt safe leaving the patio doors open and the pool area secured while we prepared dinner or had a nap ! The pool itself is amazing, great sized pool bigger than we expected actually. 4 bedrooms two with ensuites, our eldest was in heaven and our master was awesome, the two person shower was a nice touch. We will most definitely stay here again, the kids won't stop talking about this house or disneyland lol, so we have a feeling we will make this our home away from home a few times over !

My family has travelled to Florida on many occasions and this resort left us speechless. Great views of the sunset each night from our private pool, on-site management were friendly and helpful,and the townhouse was very clean. The owner was great to deal with - very friendly and professional. The owner just had new hardwood floors placed, which was great for our children who have dust allergies. The clubhouse kept the children busy (arcade room, pools, restaurant...) and we have already started planning our return. I highly recommend this home for its great value, and it was much cleaner and newer than other places we've stayed at in other resorts.

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent trip to Encantada Resort. My retired parents are not very mobile, and they absolutely loved this resort! They took easy strolls daily around the beautiful lake, and enjoyed the short trips to Epcot, Animal Kingdom, and the Outlet malls. The townhome allowed them to sleep on the main floor master bedroom, avoiding the use of stairs. They also had their own attached bathroom. We slept upstairs, in our own master bedroom with attached bathroom. This townhome is beautiful, very clean, and we are already planning our return for 2013.
