Fantastic Villa Stay in St. Cloud, Florida! I recently had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful villa in St. Cloud, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The villa was spotless and incredibly comfortable—especially the sofas, which were perfect for relaxing after a long day. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, from cooking meals to making coffee and cleaning up afterward. The pool area was a true highlight—absolutely beautiful with very comfortable sunbeds that made lounging by the pool a real treat. If I had to mention one tiny suggestion, it would be that an extra parasol would be fab for a bit more shade, but honestly, it’s not essential and didn’t take away from how much I enjoyed the space. The villa is set in a lovely, peaceful area, and one of the things I really enjoyed was the local wildlife. Around the villa and nearby lake, we often saw squirrels, ducks, and graceful Ibis birds—it really added to the relaxing and natural feel of the surroundings. The neighborhood itself was very quiet, providing a calm and restful atmosphere throughout our stay. Location-wise, it was perfect. It’s conveniently close to the Florida Turnpike and Highway 192, with plenty of supermarkets, restaurants, and other amenities nearby. I would 100% recommend this villa to anyone visiting the area, and I will definitely be booking it again when I return!

We have to say WOW what a great villa in a lovely setting, quiet and peaceful but not far from all the Parks etc Check out the lake East Lake Toho it is just wonderful and Crabby Bill’s is superb dining on the lake Do not miss the opportunity to visit this area and the villa you will not be disappointed Mike

This is a lovely villa, spacious, comfortable, nice pool, lovely view from pool over the lake with gorgeous sunsets. The owner Mandy is easy to deal with and most helpful and the local manager Brenda is really nice and very helpful.I highly recommend yjis villa for your holiday.On a nice quiet spacious estate it really is quite beautiful

Great time in Florida this year staying at this villa. Mandy was helpful from our first email to our last. The villa is in great condition, spacious and clean. The pool area is brilliant. close to theme parks and downtown Orlando. St cloud is a quiet chilled place.

We stayed for 14 days and enjoyed every one of them. It is a bit further south than we normally stay but the proximity to the Turnpike made it a very small thing compared to price and quality. Excellent pool heating which really worked. I am 2 weeks away from booking again for next October. Amanda is quick to answer and very straight forward.

Mandy's villa is perfect for a get away to sunny Florida. The villa is well stocked, particularly the kitchen which was great and had lots of little necessities that we hadn't even thought about! There was a booklet left with helpful tips, and the place was immaculate and well presented. Loved that the floor was tiled as it helped cool the place down in the july heat! The pool was extremely well sized and the view over the lake was lovely at all times of day to sit and chill by. St Cloud was handy with everything needed nearby, but we were thankful to have a car to go a bit further afield! Would have no hesitation about going back again if we returned to Orlando, thank you Mandy!

Lovely villa very peaceful location . Villa was spotless and has everything to hand . Very helpful info from Mandy and when we had a minor problem Brenda immediately fixed the issue.

Wow - what a fantastic Pool Villa. With it's stunning views, fantastic pool and spacious modern living. this Pool Villa is everything and more than we could have wished for. The location is very good. We had a wonderful time staying at this stunning Pool Villa. Highly recommended - 5 out of 5.

Thanks to Amanda and Brenda for presenting a totally spotlessly clean villa. Loved our stay here the location to express way meant any location in Orlando 20 to 25 minutes max depending on traffic . Pool also spotless and well maintained. Had one little issue with TV and the whole team sprung into action right away problem solved. Walmart and a multiple of good restaurant's minutes away in St Cloud. This is my third villa in the Orlando area all have been good but this one was great value for money . Would Highley recommend for smaller family group there was five of us but 6 would have also been fine

We really enjoyed staying in this villa (we are a family of 4 - with 2 older teenage children). Although it is a bit further away from the theme parks than we are used to, we felt that this was reflected in the price and offered good value for money. There are currently many road works and you need to allow extra time when travelling. The solar heated pool was really warm and meant that there was no further charge for pool heating (unlike many other villas). We used the pool most days and the patio table, umbrella and chairs meant that we could dine outside if we wished. The kitchen was well stocked with crockery and utensils, and provided useful items such as washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets, bin bags and paper towels. There was also clingfilm and foil available which was really useful as you often end up having to buy whole rolls when you only want to use a little. The Smart TV in the master bedroom provided access to English TV which was great to keep in touch with what's happening in the UK. The free WIFI was essential for our family - our teenagers would have been lost without it! The owner, Mandy, answered my questions before we travelled by email really promptly. There was a really useful information pack in the villa which showed local attractions and restaurants. The washing machine, tumble drier and clothes horse meant that you could wash your clothes as you went along rather than bring it all home dirty. I would definitely recommend this villa to others (providing you are happy to travel a bit further to visit the parks) and we really liked the thoughtful extras that Mandy provided

Villa was perfect for what we needed, so easy to get to and from the airport. A little further out than some villas but having stayed in one more central at Christmas this was just as if not quicker to get back to as a lot less traffic. Walmart, shops and restaurants v close too. Villa had everything we needed, all easy to find. Clean and spacious and towels looked brand new (nothing worse than old towels even if they are clean!) Pool area is lovely, we could have spent all week there had weather been better,we managed a few days view is very relaxing and a quiet area, sunny all day. Great communication from owners, check in and out times accommodated perfectly, great price too. The villa also has all information you might need, its like a little tourist information pack! Would definitely stay again in this villa.

Great villa, light and sunny with pool in sun all day... This villa is so easy to get to from the airport, slightly further out than some but with the toll road a lot quicker. I stayed in a more central villa at Christmas yet this villa was a lot quicker to get back to, avoids all traffic. Quick to get to Disney parks, we were home in 25 mins from car park to sofa. The villa has everything you need, beds comfy, quiet area and near to shops large and small. Loads of information on villa, area and attractions provided. Brenda who is contact for help if needed is lovely not that we had any problems. Pool area is very relaxing with lovely view and has sun from early till late. Would definitely recommend and would book again.

I have just returned home and can say this was a good villa, it has everything you need plus more, a quiet location very near to the Florida Turnpike. If you hire a car it's worth using the auto toll fitted to them as this makes travel easier and quicker. I have no negatives and the owners were easy to deal with. I would return, Walmart and public stores near by

We spent three at this villa and loved it. The location is good - a bit further away from the theme parks than other "villa areas" but St Cloud is lovely - downtown is full of character and all the usual shops and restraunts are close by. The villa itself was a great home from home. The highlight was the pool overlooking the lake - what a beautiful setting. On a practical level, the villa had all we needed for the three weeks. Plenty of storage and home comforts.

Found the villa was exactly as described, and more!! Beds very comfortable, villa was gleaming when we arrived! Also had a little note left from caretaker which was a really nice welcome, even told us the weather forecast! Didn't have any problems or need to contact anyone whilst we were there, but was nice to know they were available if needed. Pool was wonderful, and solar heated, so no freezing cold swims, water was a perfect temperature. Enjoyed watching the wildlife in the lake, the whole area was very peaceful. Supermarkets a few minutes away, and although villa was a little further away from parks than some, petrol is so cheap it wasn't an issue, and the private pool with lake view is worth the extra few miles, plus we all enjoyed the scenery when we were outand about! Full use of a washer and tumbler meant coming home with no washing, makes such a difference!! Would definitely recommend and stay here again!

A lovely villa, we found it to be very clean and tidy on arrival and a very useful information pack to find our way around. Very spacious and all mod cons you would need. A great location, although a little further to travel for the main theme parks and attractions etc, if you want that place with a bit of peace and quiet away from the hussle and bussle then this is perfect. Located in a quiet residential neighbourhood,with a great outlook at the rear with pool and overlooking a small lake. Great value for money and would definitely like to return and recommend to other family and friends.

We were very pleased with both the villa and the service from its owners! The property was well presented and came with everything that you would need to be able to walk in and feel at home. From the comfortable bedrooms and well equipped en-suite and bathroom, right through to the kitchen. Having an easy to use washing machine and tumble dryer meant that we didn't need to bring 2 weeks worth of clothes, leaving room for holiday shopping! The pool was clean and suitable for children, with alarmed doors to ensure you knew when someone was sneaking out for a dip first thing in the morning... There was also a great wifi connection, helping with showing off to those left back at home, as well as planning the next day's activities. We didn't need to contact the agency that acts as 'caretaker' but full details were available in case we needed to. Overall we were 'at home' the whole time, meaning it was worth every penny.

You can check in after 12 noon and we give a free late checkout until 12 midnight. UK flights are usually early evening so this allows you to spend your last day relaxing around the pool until it it is time to go to the airport.
