You cannot get much closer to Disney than this!!!
Imagine after a long day at the parks going back to your own private, beautifully decorated home in a safe, quiet, gated community which is only a five-minute drive from Disney! Emerald Island Resort is a tropical oasis as it is nestled within a protected wetland and is just a few miles from Walt Disney World and many other activities in the Orlando area.
Our home has an over-sized lanai area by the private pool which is totally screened in with extra patio furniture to accomodate everyone. TVs in all bedrooms, family room has a large TV with a VCR/DVD combination player and a stereo, CD player. There is a game room in the garage with a pool table, air hockey, foosball, radio, stools etc. The kitchen is fully equipped if you want to cook, but if you don't, there are many fabulous restaurants within a five-minute drive. Playstation available, bring your own games or you can rent right down the road.
Two of the bedrooms have twin beds,one has two sets of bunks, two have queen-size beds, and there are two master en suites with king-size beds (king-size and queen-size beds have pillow-top mattresses). We have made every effort to make our home comfortable and inviting. We have paid attention to the little things like pillowtop mattresses, high thread count sheets, name brand bedding, extra pillows, leather couches, etc.
Everyone loves a little fun in their lives so we have themed some of our bedrooms and bathrooms.

Why the Owner Chose Emerald Island Resort
We chose to buy in Emerald Island Resort for it's great location to Disney and all the surrounding activities. Restaurants are a few minutes away as well shopping, golf, and of course Disney is only 5 miles down the road.
Owner's Map of Emerald Island Resort
My husband and I are from New Jersey and love to go to Florida to escape the cold. We found ourselves vising the Disney area every year as our children love the parks and all the activities the Kissimmee area has to offer. They never get bored! We decided after a few years of visiting to buy our own vacation home. We love it. Staying in our home, instead of a hotel is so much more comfortable and relaxing. We love the pool and having own bedrooms to retreat to at the end of a long, but fun day at the parks

We enjoyed staying in this beautiful house, we've always stayed in a hotel, this is 100 times better than a hotel. We are originally from Louisiana but we live in Tallahassee. I came to Walt Disney 30 yeas ago. This is the first time my kids have come to visit Disney. They loved it. We brought a next door neighbor. They all loved the house and each had their own bedroom. I enjoyed the whirlpool and my husband too. You have a beautiful house. We enjoyed our stay. We will definitely be back.
