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

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!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, people with disabilities, romantic getaway, families with young children.

Everything was as exactly as described; house was immaculate, well furnished, comfortable and perfect in every way. We couldn't have asked for anything more. The location was wonderful; close enough to the Disney parks as well as restaurants and shopping. (After each day at one of the Disney parks coming "home" to a nice quiet house was wonderful!)Recommended for: Age 55+, people with disabilities, girls getaway, families with young children.

Stayed here with my daughter, son-in-law, and 3 grandkids. It was plenty of room, and so close to Disney, shopping, etc. So nice to have enough room, to be able to eat some meals at "home", and take lunches to the parks. This alone saved our family a lot of money and time! We did not have to wait in line at the parks with all the people trying to order their lunches. :) We were at Epcot and got soaked in a heay downpour. It was wonderful to be able to throw our clothes in the washer and dryer! If you are looking for a place that is roomy and comfortable, this is it!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers.

This was our second stay at this vacation home in a beautiful gated community. Such a nice clubhouse and more importantly such a lovely, clean, spacious home. Our children loved the pool and each had their own bedrooms and bathrooms with plenty of room to spare. They loved the game room also. The location is ideal for convenience and the parks. We will definitely choose this home again on our next Orlando vacation! Thanks for having us.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, people with disabilities, sightseeing, tourists without a car, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers.

Ive been planning our first family vacation since Feb 2012 and was a little nervous about renting a home online, but all that went away quickly with great communication from the home owners.Every question i had before the trip was answered by the home owners within 24 hours.June 30th 2012 we finally made it to the door and as soon as you open it its a paradise.Every room is as described and is the perfect place to relax and feel like royalty for your vacation.When we first looked out the patio doors to the pool we thought the pool was empty because the water was so clear. A beautiful view of woods behind you was a great place to sit by the pool and drink your morning coffee.Anything you need to cook your family dinner is already there for you pots, pans, dishes, etc.It was really nice only being 10 min away from Disney and 15-20 min from Universal Studios and Sea World.The air conditioned house was set perfectly for easy sleep and relaxing.They supply the towels and wash cloths for showers and also beach towels for the pool.It was nice not having to go anywhere to clean clothes by having a washer and dryer inside the game room.I kept hearing my family say if i ever win the lottery i would by a house just like this,so if you wanna feel like you just won the lottery for a week or two this is the place for you.My 65 year old father loved the home and so did my 11 year old daughter so i would recommend this home for all ages ChadRecommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, sightseeing, romantic getaway.

The house worked out beautifully for family with 4 kids (infant to 5) and the grandparents. The amenities for small kids were appreciated. The grandparents had their own "side of the house". We would stay here again.Recommended for: Families with young children.

This was the first time we selected a vacation home through VRBO. I wasn't sure what to expect but trusted the system. Upon showing up the gated community was gorgeous and clean. The house was impressively clean... I was surprised how well the property was cared for. The layout of the home was ideal and the 2 master suites allowed for our oldest daughter to have privacy away from her other siblings. The tvs and movies and wifi was excellent. The home was so inviting and we immediately felt at home there. The one and only complaint I would have was that the hot tub was not hot. It was the same temperature as the pool, which was heated to about 84 degrees. Which made swimming enjoyable! Thank you for a wonderful vacation, we have excellent memories for years to come,Recommended for: Families with teenagers, girls getaway, families with young children.
Owner response: About the "hot tub"; it's really not a hot tub, but a spa built into the pool. When the spa is turned on, all pool heat is directed to it; so to warm it up before entry, turn it on for about 10-15 minutes before entering and then set your time. We keep the pool the warmest we can, depending on season, and with concern and awareness for babies and young children.

What a beautiful home! It was even better than we expected. The house was immaculate and had everything you needed. Really..all we had to do was show up. The location was perfect for shopping and easy to get to Disney World. We actually enjoyed staying in the pool more than we di spending time at Disney World. We will be back for sure!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, people with disabilities, sightseeing, girls getaway, romantic getaway, families with young children, adventure seekers.

Owner info
Year Purchased: 2001
Why the Owner Chose Orlando:
Emerald Island is the best short term rental area near Disney, beautifully landscaped and gated.
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.
