We found this unit was perfect for our family needs. We spent a very active week in Orlando and the surrounding area. It was great to have this spacious townhouse to come back to. It is just as you see in the photos. The pool is nice, and clean, guests have access to a games room, and a gym. The resort staff were always helpful. The location is central. We were never more than a short drive from our destination and getting around was easy was our GPS. You will feel right at home here. My only regret was we had to go home. Sandra from Canada

Great place to stay in Orlando; so much more to offer than a hotel. Very roomy, accurately described and beautifully decorated, close to Universal, Sea World and Disney. Has everything you need in a very nice, beautifully kept safe and protected environment. They have a great pool, nice area to get out and walk or run, Publix right down the street. My only recommendation is to bring a small grill with you or buy one there if you wish to grill out and there is a nice little patio that is a perfect place to do so. Hope to stay again next year.

Harry Potter Convention- July 2010

Date of Stay: 07/11/10 Review Submitted: 07/24/10

Just wanted to say thank you for making the property available . The accommodation was way beyond our expectations. Clean and nicely decorated. We were all very comfortable and it was very nice to have so much personal space. The girls love the master bedroom, they did not have to share a room with their mothers. We had no trouble getting around Orlando, everything was close and easy to get to. After the long days at the Harry Potter convention it was nice to come home to a very relaxing and comfortable accommodations the end of a busy. We did not have a chance to use the pool or the club house, we were gone all day, but everyone there seem to be having fun. The management company was able to store our luggage for a few hours on the last day that was a great help. Thank you for making our Orlando vacation pleasant and carefree. will definitely be calling you again for the next 2011 convention. Definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you Harriet / Wendy.

Orlando Vacation

Date of Stay: 06/28/10 Review Submitted: 07/15/10

This condo was perfect for our Universal/Seaworld vacation. It was very easy to make all of the arrangements with Hugh and the management company. The condo was beautiful and very spacious for our family of 8. Also, the resort's amenities provided our family with lots of fun things to do. We were very pleased with our accommodations and would definitely stay here again.

Just want to say that Hugh and Lisa should be congratulated for making this property available. The four that make up our family stayed for 9 nights mid Jan 2010 and had a fabulous time. The location is fantastic, being easy to get to from the airport, close to all amenities and central to all the fun places to visit in and around Orlando while also being a nice quiet and extremely comfortable refuge to return to at the end of a busy day. Hugh and Lisa were great to deal with when arranging our trip making the whole experience hassle free. We would have no hesitation in recommending this property to anybody visiting Orlando. In the words of one of those well known sporting brands - Just Do It!

We had a great and relaxing experience in this Condo. It is very neatly maintained and we found all the things we needed - even extra pillows and linen. The only sore point is the Iron. It needs to be replaced.

Owner response:Thank you for the comments, we will replace the iron right away. Hugh & Lisa

FABULOUS! FABULOUS! FABULOUS! What else can I say about staying in this beautiful luxurious condo. My only hesitation in writing this is that I don't want it to be booked the next time I need it. I will not stay anywhere else when I go to Orlando. Why anyone would stay in a hotel for the same or even more money is beyond me. Great pool, close to the airport, and down the street from Universal and Sea World. You can even walk (or short drive) to Publix for groceries! The place is so big that my family 5 and another couple were able to stay and we did not feel cramped at all! One of the best vacation values I have ever experienced, and the owners are wonderful to deal with. Don't hesitate, just book it!

Very nice condo, new and clean. The clubhouse is a quick walk and there is a nice path for your morning walk. The pool at the clubhouse is huuuge and is heated. There is grocery market very close to the complex and the kitchen is quite nice. For those staying with children or other couples, if you stay on third floor and they are on first floor, it is almost like staying in separate apartments. One caution, if you are "stair-challenged", check with the owner as I believe he has other rentals in same location that are one-level. We have no hesitation in recommending this condo to anyone interested in staying in Orlando. Would gladly stay again at same location.

I wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed the Orlando condo. I really can't believe what a bargain it was! The pool was great, and having the bedrooms on different levels (with private baths and showers) allowed our teenagers to disappear upstairs and my wife and I could retreat, too. Why would anyone stay in a hotel when your condo has five times the space, three levels, a private garage, 3 bedrooms, 4 baths, and a beautiful kitchen for just a little bit more money? In a few years when our kids are out of the house, I can see us returning with some friends for some wintertime R & R....I had expected a much more crowded complex.... I hope never to rent a hotel room on vacation again! Guest stayed in Mar 08 (Owner's note: technically there are 3 full bathrooms, and one half bathroom)

We loved your Orlando Condo. It's new, beautifully furnished and very comfortable. It was a short, easy walk to the Convention Center. In addition, I appreciate your professional management of the condo. Having the Management company's office just a few feet away is an added bonus, and made check-in quick and easy. Guest dates: Jan 08, and Jan 09 (Owner's Note: Convention Center 0.6 miles away)

Just wanted to drop you a note to let you know we were very impressed with the accommodations you provided for our visit to the 2008 NBAA. Even though we arrived around 1:30 AM the concierge was there to let us in. He did a great job of explaining the set-up and where to find local amenities. The property itself was well kept and the unit was very clean. We are planning to visit the 2009 NBAA and we will definitely be looking at your place for accommodations for that time.

... had to return (home) today but wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Vista Cay. Both apartments were perfect for our needs. We were very impressed with the spaciousness and set up of both units. Also the location was ideal for us. We will definitely keep Vista Cay in mind and recommend it to others as an ideal place to stay in the Orlando area....Thank you for all your help in getting us "set up."

Date of Stay: 01/01/08 Review Submitted: 03/01/08

The townhome is very beautiful, clean and nicely furnished. Vey spacious as well. What you see online is what you get. The location is convenient to all attractions and the convention center. Very convenient to highways. They are building a Publix Supermarket next store so shopping will be so easy. Do NOT shop at Goodings!! Beyond expensive, double what you pay at Publix down the road a few blocks. Will definitely will stay here again. Amenities are clean and new, and the staff at the clubhouse are very helpful. Especially Donna, she gives great advice and directions. Other family members are hoping to rent from Hugh and Lisa. I was not sure about renting from an indi. online but working with them was easier than booking a hotel room. Prompt and friendly service and the service from the management company was excelent as well. Hope this is helpful to anyone considering this rental. You will not be disappointed.

Owner response:Thank you for your compliments, we look forward to having you and your family as future guests.

A Duke Review

Guest: Dukester (Colorado Springs, Co)
Date of Stay: 12/01/07 Review Submitted: 01/05/08

This property was very spacious and well maintained. It was easy to locate but seemed farther away from the parks than I was excepting. There were lots of great amneties which we did not take the time to enjoy. It would have been great to have had some basic things provided like dishwasher soap, quality bath soap, more than one box of laundry soap, and packaged condiments for the kitchen. It is hard to buy small amounts of these items and then you end up leaving or throwing them away. This was very much a 5-star unit and I thought the towel quality did not meet that standard. And with 8 people staying in this unit it would have been nice to have had extra sets of towels. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property to a friend or family member.

My sister and I truly enjoyed our stay at your fabulous townhouse. Thank you for offering your place as a vacation rental. We were overjoyed to stay in such a lovely place. We felt at home and comfortable the whole time we were there. The furnishings and the space were a plus for us. Every detail was covered. We will definitely be repeat renters in the future and will spread the word around.

Thank you for letting us stay in your townhouse at Vista Cay. We were very impressed with it. Well kept and all the furnishings were nice and looked like there was a lot of time taken into the decor of the townhouse-right down to the dishes! Very close to everything and it was nice to go home to something that made you feel like you were home. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip to Orlando.

Oh my, thank you...thank you. My family and I really enjoyed our stay at your condo. Everything was nicely laid out and roomy. We had no regrets at all staying here and will defiantly be returning as we are already making plans for our vacation in 2008. P.s My only complaint was that the grounds men where mowing the lawn early in the morning and I couldn't block out the noise.

Thanks for allowing my family to rent your townhome. The townhome was very nice, clean, and comfortable. We had everything we needed right inside the home. We had plenty of space to stretch out and relax. The location is ideal. It is minutes away from everything (restaurants, shopping, attractions, and more). I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a quality place to stay during their vacation. It is like home away from home. We will definitely be back.
