We had the best time ever and can not wait to go back again!!! We had our family of 4 and a family of 3 enjoying this amazing home and had more then enough room! It feels like a home away from home. The pictures dont even begin to show how beautiful this place is! The owners are amazingly helpful and patient :) (I had a lot of questions for this was our first family getaway with small children). We are totally going back ASAP! We would recommend this for families of all ages!!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children.

Our stay at this villa felt so comfortable and really a home away from home. We are already so excited to be going back next year! The listing was exactly as described and the owners left very helpful detailed lists around the home (numbers to call, places to visit, how to operate things) that would have been extremely helpful if needed. We had a very short AND easy drive to Disney Parks, the children enjoyed the pool and all of the accessories the owners keep there to use. We stayed in the Villa along with another family but felt like we had our own space. The set-up allows for your own space even if you share your time with friends or family. I recommed this property to anyone who wants to have a stress free vacation...I cannot say enough good things about our time here.Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

This place was truly amazing. The owners were so helpful as this was our first time traveling as a family, they had helpful tips as to dine and places to see, the villa was more then roomy. The layout is perfect, the pictures dont describe the beauty in the home, must see!!! the private pool was great for late night swim, relaxing under the fan out in the lanai was peaceful. Theres a Wal-Mart right before you enter, we had all our groceries for the week, and the sit and stand dbl stroller saved us money at the parks!!! cant wait to come back!!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

What a great place! We loved that it is in a gated community, there is a Walmart at the entrance, and a neighborhood workout room just 4 doors down. We'd start the day off with a walk around the neighborhood and then time in the workout room. The property was very clean and was actually nicer than the pictures. Location was a plus - pretty much 30 to 60 minutes from anything. We are from Indiana and this was our first time being in a warm state in January. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone. You will not be disappointed!Recommended for: People with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

We have recently stayed at Villa del Sol. We can recommend the property. It was clean and as advertised. It is a good location for travelling to the theme parks. The property was in a quiet and safe location. The owners were more than helpful with questions. The beds were really comfortable too.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children.

Very pleased with this property. The home was as promised in the listing description. Nicely decorated to feel as a lived in home would. Very clean and obviously well cared for. The owner was extremely patient and very helpful in answering questions. My deposit was returned promptly after the final inspection. I'll definitely stay in this property again and will recommend to people traveling to this area. There are numerous restaurants south on Hwy 27 in Winter Haven or in Orlando itself. There are numerous golf courses with Diamond Back and the Legends giving great value for the money.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children.
Owner response: Thank you so much for your review. It is our goal to provide an outstanding vacation home away from home. We are glad that you found our Villa to be just that.

When we arrived at the villa we immediately felt comfortable. The villa was very clean, had a great layout and beautifully decorated. It surpassed our expectations and we are looking forward to our next visit. The owners have been very easy to work with, which is another reason why we decided to go back to the villa.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with young children, girls getaway.

My family and I stayed in the villa and were amazed at how beautiful it was. The pictures are great but when you see it in person you will more than impressed. The landscaping was beautiful, the pool was extremely clean, all the furniture was 10 times better than Rooms To Go! If you are looking for a great villa to rent during your stay in Florida you must stay here. The owners make you feel as if you new them all your life. Food establishments, shopping, gas stations etc.. where right at the front entrance. During our stay we were fortunate enough to see some of the other villas and I must say they do not compare to this one. We will be back and we will ONLY request this villa. Hat's off to Erin and her husband for thier Villa!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway.

We were so pleased with our stay in this great villa! The house was immaculate when we arrived and lacked nothing for us to settle in comfortably right away. Everything in the listing was delivered as promised. The owners have really gone all-out to cover every detail to ensure a memorable stay. The location is ideal. The parks are an easy drive away while the quiet, secure neighborhood was so nice to return to in the evening. As the parents of 6 young children, we were impressed by the provision of the stroller, high chair, porta-crib, etc. The stroller alone saved us at least $60 in rental fees at the parks! Our kids were crazy about the pool and there was a community pool only a few doors away where all could spread out even farther. As suggested by the owner, Manny's Chophouse was a great place to eat. With free kids' meals on Monday and Tuesday and BOGO fajitas on Wednesday, we had a couple of nice meals very inexpensively. We have planned a family trip for a week at Disney in a few years and had planned to stay at a Disney resort. However, we are so pleased with our stay at this property, we will most likely come back here instead of staying at Disney. Thanks for a restful week!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

We had a fabulous time during our stay at villa de sol! Erin & Mike, your vacation home is one of the nicest we have ever stayed in. Our entire family (11 in all) had a wonderful time. the house was very well equiped to handle our large family, we lacked for nothing. the kids loved the pool and the proximity to Disney made it ideal! Southern Dunes golf club is my favorite club of any course in the area, and we never visit Florida without playing there, it is always in top notch shape!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

This was the first time we had rented a place, ever, for a vacation. This villa is clean, beautiful, wonderful. The owners were extremely nice and easy to work with. I had high expectations and they were all met. The description is accurate. The location is close to many attractions. I will (and have) recommended this rental to my family and friends. If you have a child that plays college baseball, softball in the Winter Haven area, this is will definitely work for you. We didn't play golf but the course looked beautiful...maybe next time!Recommended for: Adventure seekers, people with disabilities, age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, romantic getaway, sightseeing.
