WHY WE ARE YOUR BEST FOR BOTH AN ENJOYABLE & AFFORDABLE VACATION
Disney can be very expensive for a family. Staying in our house helps you reduce the acomodation cost and the tips on our web site can help you reduce the other areas. At a hotel, you are cramped into a small suite or even smaller rooms, no fridge or cooking facilities, nothing to keep the kids happy, no privacy!! Our 18 month old 2,322 sq ft, six-bedroom villa at Orange Tree, has just been launched on the rental market and is a better family option.
There are many many rental houses on the market, but we offer a better proposition for three reasons - location, price and the house itself!
1. LOCATION
In a rental house, the three 'location problem areas' your vacation could encounter are road noise, lack of privacy and traffic jams. We suffer from none despite being close enough to see the Magic Kingdom fireworks from our pool. Animal Kingdom is 10 minutes, the rest of Disney 15 minutes from our house. Some of the differentiators we feel give us an advantage are:
- OUR DISTANCE FROM THE ROAD - We are a full 1/4 mile so no
dreaded road noise from the 16-wheeler trucks rolling past
- NO "GOLDFISH BOWL" POOL EXPERIENCE - We are not overlooked
on all sides by up to five other house pools, but
overlooking out across conservation
- NOT IN KISSIMMEE - So no Disney traffic jams right outside
your door to fight through, wherever you intend to go
- SHOPPING - Just two minutes to the 24 hour Super Walmart or
Kohls & only 10-15 minutes North on the US27 to Super
Target/Home Depot/Payless Shoes etc.
- GOLF - Florida is the biggest golfing state in the US, we
are surrounded by courses, Orange County is only 10 minutes
away with two of the highest rated courses in the area.
However, for the benefit of those in your party not "mad on
golf", the house is not in the middle of one!
2. PRICE
Prices exclude the 11% sales tax in Lake County, but this is less thanb the 13% in Kissimmee. Just to put this into context though, at a four-star hotel it would cost at least $75 a night/room, six rooms for a week would be $3,150 (more than 3 times the price for much less space and all before tax added!).
3. THE HOUSE ITSELF
One level, so no stair concerns for either children or elderly members of your group. The Gulf Breeze-II is virtually the only 6-bedroom single storey house on the market. House packed with toys & features to keep the kids happy and enable you to relax in the 'between theme park days.

"The kids absolutely loved those sandhill cranes. We looked forward to seeing them every day, and were very disappointed on the days they were occupied elsewhere!"

1. "I just wanted to drop you a quick line and let you know that I really had a wonderful time at your villa. The place is just gorgeous and we all had a wonderful time. My parents enjoyed the beautiful bedroom with the bathroom en suite and my father particularly enjoyed the big screen TV that we could not seem to get him away from!!! Everything was just wonderful and I do plan to visit again with my sister, Rhelda. Once again, thanks for allowing us to stay in your home."

" The Shrek Game on the Play Station has been a real hit with all of us. We don't own one of these devices at home so the children are loving this. We have also valued the many toys and stuff in the garage. You guys really equipped the place well. The house has been wonderful. It was very clean when we arrived and accommodating. The location has been wonderful too. “
