Holiday 22 January – 4th February 2011
What a fantastic holiday!! We had lots of contact with Tina and Trevor prior to our holiday. Tina was very helpful in giving us detailed information about the villa and the facilities and Trevor shared information about the journey from the airport, good car rental companies and the local area. This was invaluable.
We arrived at the villa, over excited, and the children couldn’t wait to explore. They were successful in setting off the alarm system as they opened the door out to the pool area within 30 seconds of entering the villa! So we quickly learned about the security system and were very impressed with the pool area. The poolside furniture and the pool were in immaculate condition and my youngest son had a wonderful time playing before and after our days at the parks.
The villa is a fabulous size. We were a family of 4 plus grandparents and there was plenty of room for us all to have time to ourselves. The ground floor bedroom was enormous and had lots of sunshine from early in the morning. The rooms upstairs were amazing, well equipped and very comfortable. The utility room was fantastic and we benefited from this as we had deliberately taken fewer clothes as we had planned shopping sprees with the children! This day was meant to be our ‘day off from the parks’ but was probably harder work - with a teenager and a practising teenager shopping at Hollister and Abercrombie and Fitch etc!!! The games room was a godsend at the beginning and end of the day! The boys enjoyed relaxing and enticed the adults into the odd game of pool!!! The television had access to the UK football games and this was an ideal end to the day when we could sit and watch a little footie!
The location to the supermarkets and local British stores was excellent. There were some good restaurants on the 192 – namely the Olive Garden and the Golden Coral. These were particularly child friendly and good value for money.
Trevor gave us a courtesy call a few days into the holiday, which was really thoughtful. We also had a visit from the management company representative who was very helpful and had excellent local knowledge.
We would definitely stay at this villa again if we returned to Orlando and would like to thank Tina and Trevor for sharing their property with us.
