Location: Orlando, Central-Disney-Orlando Area, Florida, USA (Disney 1.9 miles & Orlando Int'l Airport 30 minutes) View Map
Accommodations: House, 4 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 3 Baths (Sleeps 8)
Keywords: Single-Family Home
Emerald Island Resort is located just 1.9 miles from Disney. The resort is the most environmentally friendly in the area with 11 acres of conservancy, huge palm trees, and numerous large ponds.
Our home, Palm Haven, backs up to this conservancy, which means the private screened in pool does not back up to another home's back yard. Throughout the conservancy are winding paths for hiking and amid the paths are picnic tables. This relaxing respite from the hustle and bustle of Disney is entirely unique to Emerald Island.
Palm Haven has two master bedrooms at opposite ends of the home, each with its own private bath. The other two bedrooms contain two twin beds each; one bedroom is surf themed and the other twin bedroom is golf themed. This is an ideal set up for two families traveling together and also perfect for a family including grandmother and grandfather. Pets are NOT allowed and No Smoking.
Palm Haven's living room/dining room and family room/kitchen areas have soaring vaulted ceilings. 50" TV with full DVD library. Wireless Internet and computer.
The home is decorated distinctly tropical and is sun-filled and bright. The pool is spectacular with its forest background. There is a raised spa in the pool with separate timer which directs all heat to the spa when it is in use

Why the Owner Chose Orlando
Emerald Island is the best short term rental area near Disney, bar none.
I love our landscaped areas; our walking trails; our concierge service, the fun atmosphere at our community pool.
The Unique Benefits at this House
We chose this lot especially for its privacy. We back up to the wooded conservancy and we have privacy landscaped the sides of our pool.
I love the pool at night with the lights on and listening to the sounds in the woods behind us.

This property has it all! My family has returned to this property three times... we will stay no where else when vacationing in Orlando & at Disney. The property has... GREAT location (very near Disney, very short 10 minute drive to the parks, very near grocery stores and restaurants of every kind, within\ an hour of the coast - beaches & Kennedy Space Center). LUXURY accommodations (2 Master Bedrooms, 4 bedrooms in all, very comfortable pillowtop beds, awesome private pool, spa, and grilling area, great living areas with big screen TV, PC with internet access & printer, fantastic kitchen - very well stocked with everything you need to make simple to gourmet meals, comfortable quality furniture throughout, fun game room, and on-site laundry facilities). Owners have kept this property updated.... each time we return there have been new updates. Simply put, a comfortable home away from home!!!! GREAT Service. From the Owners, to the Property Managers, to the Emerald Island Resort Staff.... these people are simply the best in providing an awesome, positive experience. SERCURITY. Gated Community with 24 hour security. Our family loves property!

We had a fabulous time. The house was beautiful - spotless inside and out. Owner couldn't have been nicer. Property managers couldn't have been more responsive. I'd whole-heartedly recommend this property without reservation.

Our experience at Kissimmee was totally highlighted by the beautiful home we stayed in. The rooms were terrific - lots of room to spread out. We loved the pool, the game room and had a terrific time knowing that each evening we were "going home" to a lovely place to sleep. The location is beyond terrific - lots of shopping and the parks are all nearby. This IS the house you're looking for - enjoy your Disney vacation and know you'll be staying at the best rental home we've ever had! I am recommending this house to everyone I know heading to the Orlando area. Thanks so much to the Owners!!

This vacation was the trip of a lifetime for us and our family! We planned for more than ten months tending to every detail and it was all we dreamed it would be! Our stay at Emerald Island was the icing on the cake! Your home was extremely comfortable and included every amenity that we needed! We enjoyed the pool and the game room very much! The proximity to the parks, shopping and restaurants was so convenient! We wouldn't have changed a thing! We look forward to coming back some day soon!

Wow were the first words out of our mouths as we opened the door! We loved this vacation home and it felt like home while we were there. It was so nice taking two small children and having things already there for (double stroller, high chair, crib, twin bed, DVDs, games, game consoles, washer, dryer, the list goes on!). Whenever we vacation in the Orlando area again, we will be renting this house again! Loved having a private pool to use but also the luxury of walking down to the resort pool to use that too. We had six adults and two kids in the house and it was nice because each family all had their own bedroom and bathroom. The house was definitely accomodating to ALL of our needs! We have definitely been transformed from condo users to renting a house after staying in their wonderful place. We felt very safe and well taken care of!!! We look forward to visiting (what my two year old daughter says) "our Florida home" again!

Everything from a to z was amazing. The location was great. So close to Disney. The neighborhood was excellent and then the home itself. I couldn't have asked for more. The home was beautiful and everyone had a great time. My son loved the pool. I would do this again in a heart beat. Thanks Lynn for everything!

Just got back from Orlando today; we stayed in this home for 7 nights over the Fourth of July holiday. We had an amazing time and the home was amazing to say the least. It has all the amenities you could ever need on vacation: 4 bedrooms (2 are Masters), 3 full baths, full kitchen, washer/dryer, and the pool was awesome! We had 7 people total in our party, my family of four with my children ages 12 and 8, my older brother and my parents. The house had enough room to accommodate our large family with room to spare. The living area has a large L-shape couch with a huge TV and all the bedrooms have TV’s as well. There are towels and even beach towels on site, dishes, cups, etc to make the stay even more inviting. I cannot say enough about this cozy little find; it was great! The home was kept clean and inviting, the subdivision was gated and felt safe. We will keep this house in mind if we return to the area. Thanks so much!

Hi, Bob and I want to let you know it was great fun staying at emerald Island. It is a very nice place to be. The kids liked the pool and loved walking up to the center where the kids playground was. I hope everything was satisfactory when we left. We did buy a spatula for the kitchen,but no big deal. I was surprised by how well you supplyed the kitchen and bath rooms. You we're right when you said" if this is your first time renting a rental,it won't be your last".We left a bright pink towel there,but just wanted to let you know where it came from. Thanks again. We will tell others about the villa. Nancy & Bob Drum

We just wanted to take the time to write what a wonderful property you have. We have stayed in this home two times and had a great experience. Everything is immaculately maintained and Lori and Jeff are a joy to work with. We have recommended this property to many of our friends and family. Unfortunately, this past November we were unable to stay in this house and stayed in a different property in Emerald Island, which was NOT well maintaned, had many hidden costs and there were signs everywhere of what not to do - and how much it will cost us if we did! We would make sure to plan well in advance so that we would be able to stay in this particular home.
