Florida Villa's - advice and recomendations?

[Hysteria1983]

Hi all, having used Travel City Direct in the past for a package deal, I'm just looking for any info or advice from people who have used other ways to book.

We will be looking at a 5 bed villa with a pool to sleep 6 adults and 4 children. Location isn't a massive issue as we have always rented a van so we are quite happy to travel a little.

Thanks on advance to any advice.

2 tips.

Get a south facing pool.

Get a villa with wifi.

We stayed at a development called Glenbrook on US 27, just a little north of the western end of the 192. If you want to be close to Disney its pretty close, there is a supermarket literally 2 mins walk away and there are numerous eateries within 10 minutes drive along the 192..

This is the one we had : http://www.disneypalmsvilla.co.uk/ but there are loads in that estate of varying designs and sizes.

sign up to http://www.thedibb.co.uk/ it's a bit 'mumsnet' but there is a decent choice of villa owners where you can get a bit of a feel for their provenance. Used it a few times and have had some great villas at great prices.

Was going to say there's at least one extremely experienced person on here.

Just rent direct through sites like Villarenters or Holidaylettings. They are remarkably cheap. We stayed in a villa at Indian Point off Poinciana Boulevard which was round the corner from a large Walmart and within short driving distance of all the major parks and Kissimmee.

Currently renting this villa....

6 bed, 4 bath, 2 living area's, pool, jaccuzzi, games room (pool table, air hockey, table football).....there are 4 of us!

I can recommend the orlando villa's website posted above. Its direct rental by the owners, so what you see is what you get. I've used it many times, and its how I rented this villa.

The chinese takeaway at the front of Glenbrook isn't bad if you can't be arsed to go anywhere
