Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Terra Verde Resort
Terra Verde is a pretty, well maintained, friendly gated community in the heart of the theme park area and yet situated in a quiet country location. Terra Verde is family and senior friendly with a pleasant walk around the small central pond with fishing and palm trees surrounded by mediterranean style homes. Our home is very close (less than 3 minutes walk) to the clubhouse, pool, climbing area, basketball court, beach volleyball, and playground. Our vacation home is a great location for our guests to enjoy Disney, Epcott, Universal, Cape Canaveral and the Everglades. Orlando has great connections to the US, Canada, and Europe.
The Unique Benefits at this Townhome
Our Terra Verde home is newly furnished (just purchased immediately after buying the property). It has a spa, 46 inch LCD TV with BluRay/DVD player and wireless internet (you may also be able to connect directly by Cable). It has one Queen sized bed in the master bedroom with attached ensuite and two twin beds in each of the other 2 bedrooms. There is a walled in patio with new furniture and working spa that can accomodate up to 8 people.
Owner's Map of Terra Verde Resort
Our second home in the Kissimmee area allows great holidays with the opportunity to explore Disney, Universal, Cape Canaveral, the everglades, and theme villages such as Celebration. We settled on Terra Verde because of the convenient location, pleasant atmosphere, friendly owners, wide range of facilities, and quality of construction. Our unit has a good location, close to the Clubhouse but with some privacy because it is just off one of the roads and backs onto the nature reserve. We hope you enjoy your visit and recommend us to your friends. Jon and Lonnie

We are frequent visitors to Kissimmee and Orlando area, renting vacation homes since 1994. We know subdivisions from west, including Davenport area, and east. At first we thought Terra Verde was a little bit far away from shoppings, restaurants and parks. WE WERE WRONG. In less than five minutes we could reach Walmart (Vineland), Super Target (192), gas stations, restaurants etc Home is great for a party of six, nice and really hot hottub in the back, wifi working fine in al rooms. As All Brazilians do, we did not have much time to enjoy Terra Verde amenities; we prefer shoppings and parks. :-) But I Tell you Terra Verde is a great resort for relaxing and making friends. For sure we will return many days. Thanks a lot

The villa was perfect for our Disney trip! We spent 4 quick nights at the condo and it more than met our expectations. Unfortunately since we spent the majority of our days at the Disney parks, we didn't even use some of the amenities such as the villa's jacuzzi or the community pool (which looked very nice). On our next trip, we'd like to spend at least one day relaxing by the pool. We traveled with our two daughters ages 6 and 2 and found the villa spacious, clean and comfortable. Also, a very quick drive of not more than 15 minutes to the Disney parks.

We really enjoyed our stay at Terra Verde. The condo was very comfortable. The kitchen was quite handy, and all of the bedrooms and the living room had excellent televisions. We only got to enjoy the hot tub on one occasion because we were constantly on the run. The amenities were quite impressive, and the unit is very convenient to Disney, The owners were also very pleasant to deal with. We would definitely rent this unit again. Thanks Jon & Lonnie!

I really enjoyed the property it was really nice. I was a little uneasy at the fact we paid for cleaning but still had to do the cleaning our self and the fact we had to pay for an accidental stain to the linen. As i'm sure accidents happen but did not know we would have to pay for small accidents as such.
Owner response:Thank you for your review and for giving us the opportunity to explain our check out policy. The cleaning fee does not cover dishes (place them all in the dishwasher and switch it on before leaving). We also ask that trash be placed in the hidden bin immediately outside the front door, this is emptied daily, large amounts can be taken to the dumpster which is about 200 yards distant. Thank you for taking the sheets off the bed and placing them in the laundry. There was a permanent stain on one sheet, we have to replace these as guests expect clean linen. We withheld a total of $20 and will refund any difference between this and the final bill from our management company. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and our sorry that this has detracted from your overall experience. Jon and Lonnie

This is, I think the third time we have enjoyed your home, and it has become what I call home when I am in Florida. The house is always clean, and even a light on when we come in late. I know what to expect and am never disappointed. Thank you again for sharing your Florida home with us.

Dear Lonnie and Jon, Thanks for making our holiday incredible! The place is fantastic, the house is spacious and clean and all the other amenities in the property are also fantastic. Our son enjoyed the pool a lot since there is a large shallow area. He also had a blast playing in the play area and in the volleyball court. We are looking forward to coming back again, thanks for everything!

This was the perfect solution for 3 women going to a family reunion. Great security in a clean, well-kept townhouse. The description of the property was accurate. We enjoyed the beautiful pool area, the Tiki bar and our private hot tub. The owners were very responsive and helpful. The front desk and the security people were very nice, efficient and informative. Would highly recommend this to family and friends who are visiting the area or the parks. Close to the major highways going to the entertainment areas but far enough off the beaten path for quiet and privacy. This was much less expensive than a decent hotel and included many extras (kitchen, washer dryer, dining room, living room, TV's everywhere, extra bathrooms, etc). Overall, I was very impressed and will be going back in the future.

I just finished a 10 day stay at this townhouse and I highly recommend it. The townhouse was spacious and well furnished. Just as advertised, this property is 10 - 15 minutes to Disney, and only a few minutes to shopping and restaurants. This is a great townhouse. The extra touches like wireless internet, Blu-ray DVD, a blender, a playpen, highchair, a washer / dryer, extra bedding and sheets made the stay even better. The furnishings are all nice and I was pleasantly suprised at the extent of the kitchen furnishings the amount of towels and pillows. Being able to enjoy meals at "the townhouse" instead of eating out all the time was a tremendous money and time saver. We spent considerably less money than we would have a traditional hotel. (not to mention the significant rate reduction the townhouse offers over a hotel). The property manager was prompt with returning my calls when needed to answer my questions and very helpful. The clubhouse was very nice, the gate guard and the clubhouse workers were all very friendly. My children really enjoyed the playground, the pool, the arcade room, and the sand area in the townhouse community. We spent one evening at the "Old Towne" carnival type area in Kissimmee, a few miles near the townhouse and this was a great (and cheap) alternative to Disney for 1 day. We spent $25 and our family of 6 had fun for an evening at the carnival. Just a thought for an alternative to Disney 1 day. I highly recommend this townhouse. From the pleasant interactions with the owners, the property manager, the clubhouse staff to the comfortable furnishings, and especially the amount of space and amenities compared to a hotel, this is a great place to stay. I can't imagine ever staying in a Disney area hotel. This resort is rated #1 on Trip Advisor for the Orlando area and I support this ranking!
