Happy New Year!!
Thank you Chris & Graham for another wonderful stay in your home. A little different coming in December (last visit March 2008) but the weather was great except for the 2 days of your "arctic blast" (felt like home:)) Two days at Universal to see Harry Potter was totally aweseome. A bit of a drive to Siesta Key beach (best beach ever!) & not to mention lots of great deals shopping.
We love Venetian Bay Village & will plan to come again in the near future.
Best wishes from the ***** family

We enjoyed our stay at your home.
After a week of travelling and stayed in a hotel your house was a nice place of rest.
We went to Disney, Clearwater beach, space centre & we did some shopping. We are now travelling back to Washington & then we fly home to Amsterdam.
Many thanks,

Dear Chris & Graham,
We had a great time! We loved visiting the wizarding world of Harry Potter - the ButterBeer was AWESOME. We also had fun at the Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios. Enjoyed some live music at Margaritaville. Just not enough time to do everything we wanted to do! It was great to return to your condo at the end of each day, unwinding at the pool & relaxing in your spacious home.
Many thanks!

Dear Graham & Chris,
We have spent a great week exploring Universal parks and Kennedy Space Centre.
Chilled out by the pool which the kids loved.
House was perfect - everything to make our stay so comfortable.

Second visit to Venetian Bay
Submitted: April 25, 2012
Stayed: April 2012
We were really looking forward to our second visit to your lovely home in the Venetian Bay resort and we were not disappointed. Everything was just as we remembered it. The resort is well maintained and feels secure and safe. The home was clean and inviting. Our kids enjoyed having TV in each bedroom. Appreciated having a washer so that we did not need to bring so many clothes with us!
We got to visit the theme parks that we missed last time and it was great to see some sunshine.
We had a wonderful week - thank you!

Stay at your own risk
Submitted: March 28, 2012
Stayed: March 2012
Our stay was less than optimal! There were a clogged bathtub, broken fan, uncomfortable and noisy beds & pillows, noisy neighbors, and dirty oven accessories to name a few. Developed a rash sleeping there --could there be a insect issue???
Would not recommend to anyone! Good luck!!

Owner's Response: I am disappointed that you did not find the facilities maintained to our usual high standards. Our other guest comments show that this is not normally the case. We point out very clearly in our pre-check in documentation and in notices in the home, that if you discover any problems you should report them to us right away. We can then send someone to rectify the issue immediately. Unfortunately you did not report anything until several days after you had checked out. As a result we did not have the opportunity to resolve any of your complaints. The "noisy beds" that you refer to are a result of mattress & pillow protectors that are fitted for hygiene & allergy protection purposes. I will however look into fitting mattress toppers ("egg crates") to make them less obtrusive. Thanks for your feedback on this. The guests before you had stayed for a month & have already booked again for next year, so I am confident that your experience was not a representative one.
[Update May '12 - we have now fitted padded mattress covers to all beds]

Trip to Orlando
Submitted: December 27, 2011
Stayed: December 2011
- I have 2 kids. I was able to give each of them their own bedroom and my wife and I had the third bedroom. The master bedroom is downstairs while the kids bedrooms are upstairs. I could hear just about every footfall upstairs while downstairs. Fortunately, I go to sleep after my kids and get up before they do, so it wasn’t that big of an issue.
- The appliances were functional. Washer and Dryer came in handy for doing laundry every other day.
- Orlando is a pretty easy city to navigate and the townhouse is fairly close to everything. The path each morning was exit the complex, turn left, turn right at the signal and then follow the signs to wherever you want to go.
- The pool at the complex is nice, the gym is certainly good for a vacation place. The “arcade” is nothing special- air hockey and pool were both good, the other video games weren’t.
- There are books and games left behind from previous visitors, so check the closets and cabinets. We left behind Bingo.
- There is internet, and it is pretty fast, but it is wired and not wireless (I know, #firstworldproblems). Because we had 3 laptops, all of whom wanted to check e-mail and go online at the same time, I brought my wireless router from home.
- Not too many cable channels, but you can at least get local news and weather. Once again, you shouldn't be to reliant on cable while on vacation.
After staying at Christine’s townhouse for 7 days, we went to the Nick hotel for 2. My wife and I agreed that we would have gone crazy living in a hotel room for all 9 days of our trip. And the townhouse for 7 days was cheaper than the Nick Hotel for 2 days.
No Pets and No Smoking. There are permenant residents in the complex, who were generally friendly.
Thanks,
Chris

Great base for the theme parks
Submitted: September 6, 2011
Stayed: August 2011
We rented the property for the first week of a two week holiday, the latter spent relaxing on the beach. For the first week we knew we would spend the vast majority of our time in the theme and water parks around Orlando but we wanted a convenient base offsite from the parks themselves area that would give us a spacious base for a family of five and allow us to ‘eat in’ rather than be forced to rely on restaurants for every meal. The house was ideal for that with convenient parking and a very large (and cheap) WallMart nearby.
So an ideal solution for those looking for a good value family accommodation.

My son and I enjoyed our stay at your condo. It's clean, beautifully decorated and very comfortable. Appreciated the internet connection. The resort is very clean and well-kept. Would certainly consider staying at your condo when I'm next in Orlando. Thanks for sharing your home with us.
