25 Reviews of Property 382927 in Champions Gate, Florida

We stayed at this property for our post-deployment Disney Vacation, and it was a really great time. The perfect distance away from the theme-parks - not too far to make it a long commute, and not too close to be stuck in the craziness. The lot is beautiful, with the sun coming up over a small lake and trees, only one neighbor, and pasture lands adjoining the property. Attention to detail is an understatement as this house was stocked with everything - paper towels and toilet paper, bath towels, pool toys, a baby gate, washer and dryer, all the kitchen essentials with impressive appliances, and a gift basket upon arrival. The centerpiece to the property is the large, beautifully landscaped saltwater pool and hot tub (spa). Our family spent a ton of time in it, without the strong stench of chlorine that goes along with most pools. When hurricane Isaac threatened to hit our home in Northwest Florida, the owners very graciously extended our stay at the property in regard to our safety so we wouldn't have to travel through the storm. Their genuine care and concern for us is a reflection on their character, which you can see in their management of the property and the lengths they go through to make sure your stay is a great experience. I could not more highly recommend this property for a trip to the Central Florida area!

We loved staying here on our recent trip to Disney World. Everything was even better than expected!

The location was good; I was prepared for the "morning commute" to parks to feel long compared to staying on property, but the less than 15 minutes from driveway to Disney was mostly neighborhood and highway (so, very few traffic lights and NO congestion!).

The owner was great to work with and very accommodating and attentive - which with our VRBO experiences we have found to be very important. Chad thrilled our girls by having princess coverlets on the twin beds (don't worry, parents of boys, we were asked if we wanted gender specific bedspreads; boys or teens/adults could easily use this room). We were offered a pool gate set up (which we took him up on), and we were blown away by the thoughtfulness and generosity of a welcome basket that we enjoyed throughout the week. The great owner experience continued after we got home with very prompt security return.

The house itself was fantastic, and amazingly suited to us. Everything is good on paper, even better in person. Each detail is just a notch above where you would even hope it to be, let alone need it to be. Even with the well-above average amenities, the price was competitive with lesser choices. Also, all of the costs are reflected in the rental price - there were no extra housekeeping, linen, internet fees tacked on like other places. Even the taxes were built in - a huge extra cost at other places! The only extra cost was our choice on heated hot tub or not. (We picked yes; the hot tub is great!)

I not only would recommend, but already HAVE heartily recommend this rental to friends and family! Staying in the area for over a week with 3 adults and 2 kids, we needed more than a hotel room. For about the price of two hotel rooms we got much better space, not to mention a higher quality and level of relaxation!

I know rentals mean making business decisions, but throughout the whole process we felt more like guests than customers, and I really really appreciated that.

Thanks so much for letting us stay in your house. We were really impressed with it, especially the pool, which it was almost impossible to get the boys out of! At first we thought the house might be a bit far from all the action, but as it turned out, it was actually nice to escape from all the parks 'mayhem' and to be a little removed from it all.
It's location made it blissfully peaceful.

I'd like to say that we found the house just perfect. The open plan downstairs made it easy to keep tabs on the kids at all times (unless they were safely in their own room), and, due to the sliding glass doors, that also includes when they were out messing around in the pool. There were more than enough towels for everyone, and (other than maybe a cheese-grater!) I can't think of anything more we could have wanted in what was a very well-equipped kitchen. It was also the little touches which made all the difference, like the welcome basket, and the time taken to put different comforters on the beds, and to fold the towels in the bathrooms - we felt like we'd arrived at a 5-star resort! For people not used to having swimming facilities on tap, the pool & hot tub were simply amazing. It wasn't just the facilities themselves, but also the fact that there were beautiful plantings around the pool, not to mention that lovely mature tree outside which offered great shade. I really can't think of anything I would suggest that you change or improve.

All in all, it would be hard to imagine a better place to stay. If we have friends or family planning trips to the area we will most certainly be recommending the house, and the great care that you've both shown in presenting the place as well as you have.

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us, It made our vacation amazing, the privacy and pool, what more could you ask for. We cant wait until our next vacation in your home. We wouldn't stay anywhere else.Oh and the beds were comfortable, and the towels were "FLUFFY" as my girls say. Thanks again, Bobby and family

Thank you for sharing your secret hideaway with our family. My wife and I stayed in the rental above for one week with our three grandsons. The house, which became our home for that week, was in perfect condition. It was great being at the end of the road with no house behind us and a pasture with cows right next door. The home and the pool were both very very clean. The house was far better then the pictures showed. We meet the owners on our first day and they were very friendly, kind and informative. We were greatly surprised when we walked into the home and found a generous welcome basket, but our grandsons were more surprised with the way the pool looked with the palm trees and hot tub.The house is close to I-4, which goes directy to Disney, Universal and all other great parks that Orlando has to offer. The stores and resturants are all close to the house. We broke our vacation up by spending some days at hone relaxing and some days at the parks.The home was a great oasis after a long day at the park. I would recommend this home to anyone who wants to relax and enjoy some quite time after a long hot day at Disney or Universal. Thanks for having us as quest and we look foreward to coming again next year.

Thank you! The accomodations and location were exactly what we were looking for - a very nice home with updated features that is convenient to the entertainment venues yetin a secluded location for privacy. The pool and hot tub were especially inviting and relaxing. We have vacationed in the Orlando area for weeks at a time over the last 20 years, and this property is at the top of our list. We totally recommend this property to vacationers visiting the Orlando area. Thanks to the home owners for the accomodations and making our vacation most enjoyable..

Thank you so much for sharing your home with us. We all had a great time and found that the home was as described and then some. We loved everything about the house and found the pool area to be extremely relaxing and we loved soaking in the spa. It gave us the privacy we wanted, along with the convenience of being close to everything. We have decided that we want to return next year but want to spend more time there. I will contact you to find out what we need to do to put our reservation in in advance. You have a wonderful home there and again, we really appreciate you sharing it with us. K. Thompson and J. Rose

This house was a fantastic inclusion to our family vacation (Mom, Dad and three kids 12, 12 and 9). It had everything we needed to enjoy our family vacation. The owner(s) were terrific with communication - and even left us a welcome basket upon our arrival. The house is located a solid 20 minutes from Universal - and then in the opposite direction another 30 minutes gets you to Legoland. I would say it's only 10-15 to the Disney parks. This house made our vacation - there were no bugs, the pool was wonderful, the towels were "extra special fluffy" as my daughter said. Seriously - way cleaner than my house! Our family dog (goldendoodle) also came with us and there is plenty of room outside to walk her and she even enjoyed a dip in the pool. We have been to Orlando a few times before an stayed "on property," but haven't enjoyed ourselves as much as we did when we stayed here. Coming back from the parks and preparing dinner while the kids swam was just perfect. This has been my favorite vacation ever - obviously we highly recommend it! Thanks Chad!!
