Why the Owner Chose Emerald Island Resort
The Emerald Island Resort is superbly located on the US192, just 3 miles from Disney World yet secluded in a gated community surrounded by a conservation area for those relaxing evenings.
The Unique Benefits at this Pool Home
Our villa is so close to Disney World that we can visit the theme parks in the morning, come back during the evening to relax and cool off in the pool and have a bite to eat then return for more fun and fireworks at the theme parks! The south facing pool overlooks a lake and conservation area, perfect to enjoy the floridian sunsets. Our villa isn't just close to Disney World; Universal Studios and Sea World are within a 30 minute drive to! There is a large supermarket just over 1 mile from the villa and superb restaurants are all located within a couple miles. Even on the days when we relax at the villa there is plenty to do, especially as we've installed a brand new games room with top of the range pool table, air hockey, foosball and electronic darts.
Owner's Map of Emerald Island Resort
Our family first visited Florida in 1995 and have made it a regular holiday destination ever since. After our first few visits we discovered Emerald Island Resort and continued to rent villas there as it is superbly located and all the villas are of outstanding quality. We enjoyed Florida so much over the years that we decided to buy a villa in Emerald Island Resort and would like to welcome you into our home for a wonderful vacation.
