Map & Owner's Profile
Windsor Hills Reserve-Luxury and Elegance-Sw Pool-Premium Lot
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose Windsor Hills
We absolutely love Windsor Hills! We purchased this villa after researching the Windsor Hills Community for one year. We found it to be the perfect home for Disney vacationers. It has everything to offer families and yet is so close to Disney World. You really feel part of the magic when you stay in this community!
The Unique Benefits at this House
We love having our coffee in the morning on the lanai and a glass of wine on the lanai in the evening. It is a beautiful community, and we love to take in all of the scenery, the landscaping, and the foliage as we take at least one daily walk. We warm the jetted spa, as we take an evening swim in the pool, and end the day by relaxing in the whirlpool!
Our favorite Publix to shop is the new one, as it has about everything. You simply make a right out of Windsor Hills on Old Lake Wilson Rd. and go straight until you come to the redlight, cross the highway, and it is on the right. It is a very easy drive.
I love cooking in the gourmet kitchen, as I look out to the pool/spa/lanai and beautiful park setting. We almost always eat out on the lanai! The washer and dryer is also convenient; we love taking home clean clothes, and we can pack a lot lighter.
There are many restaurants close by. We like a small Italian restaurant, Bruno's, on 192. It is family owned and the staff there are very friendly.

I've wanted to thank you upon my return home from Florida but my son and I were still vacationing, now that I'm back at work I can say "Thank YOU" for the use of your wonderful home. My friends and I had a wonderful time for the six days, please know that of the three homes I've vacationed at in florida the others can't compare to your home. It was by far the most well equiped, and tastefully decorated I've visited. I only wish I could have stayed longer. This was my first visit to your home, if you are still in the business later this year and for certain next summer I hope that I'll be able to find the available dates that work for my schedule. Again, I say Thank you. Jeffrey

Hi Sandy/Rick, Just to let you know that we have now returned from Florida back to the UK, and we had an absolute ball!!. I also wanted to let you know that we thought your home in Windsor Hills is really fabulous, and a real family home. We loved every minute of it, especially being so close to Disney. We would be interested in booking it again next year. Many thanks again – well done on designing such a great home. Best, Geoff

"Perfect Vacation Home" "We were very impressed with this new vacation home. We would definitely stay there again. We had 3 families staying together with a 2-year old, 4-year-old, 6 year-old and 2 nine-year olds. The security fence around the outdoor pool was great to have for the 2 year-old. The 9-year olds loved the game room with the pool table and air hockey. The 4 and 6-year olds really enjoyed the castle park 3 blocks away and the large community pool. Private bathrooms near or in each of the bedrooms provided privacy. You cannot get any closer to Disney without staying on the property. This home has all of the amenities down to the last details. I would highly recommend this home!" Recommended for: Age 55+, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children

Hi Sandy! Just a quick e-mail to say thankyou for the use of your beautiful villa while we were on holiday. We all had a fantastic time in Orlando and our holiday was made even better by staying in such a fantastic home! When we walked through the front door we all said "WOW"! One of my sons even said "Mum,we must be rich to be able to stay in a house like this"! Your villa was perfect,even down to the last little details,such as the great hairdryers! The kids had a superb time using the pool and I even got to relax in the spa! Martin and Lyndsie were also extremely helpful as we had to phone them about a couple of very small things. The villa is in a great spot too and it was really nice not having anyone overlooking us. There was only one problem-we had to come home! The kids were all really upset at having to leave Orlando and wished they could stay forever! I wish we could have too,but never mind,we are back home in cold rainy Scotland and feeling very depressed! Hopefully it won't be too long before we can plan our next trip to Orlando and we hope your villa will be available when we do! Anyway,must go for now as feeling a bit jetlagged still. Thankyou so much again! Kindest Regards Jillian.
