About Danielle and Kevin Deveau
Kevin and Danielle are excited to be able to offer you a relaxing vacation in their lovely newly renovated villa. With their 3 daughters all enrolled in University, they are definitely looking forward to the day when they will be able to head down to Florida and enjoy this lovely home, leaving the cold Nova Scotia winters behind. For now, they want to make your time in Florida a wonderful vacation memory.
Danielle and Kevin Deveau purchased this house in 2013
Why Danielle and Kevin Deveau chose Haines City
Southern Dunes Golf and Country Estates is the perfect spot for vacationers. You can relax in the quiet, safe, gated community while being 20 minutes away from the Disney theme parks. Florida has so much to offer and having a vacation home centrally located between both coasts, really enables the vacationer to play golf, play at the amusement parks and play under the sun.
What makes this house unique
The backyard, with the in-ground southern exposure pool, looks onto to the No. 2 hole of the beautiful Southern Dunes Golf Course. This is the ideal place to return to after a busy day enjoying Florida's many theme parks. The quiet, safe neighbourhood, recharges you for your next day's adventures. There is a 24 hr Walmart directly outside the gates for al your needs and many dining opportunities' within a short drive. If it is a relaxing night you are looking for the Southern Dunes Clubhouse is relaxing walk away.
Guestbook comments from the owner
Hi Danielle and Kevin,
I hope that all is going well with you.
The house is great and so clean and comfortable. We went golfing yesterday and came back and jumped in the pool. Amazing!
We wondered if it would be possible to extend our time for next year. The dates we wanted appear open on your calendar.
Take care,
Mary Anne G

Wonderful!
Hope to be there in December..
Property was better than described.
Thank you Danielle and Kevin. We totally enjoyed our stay. Neighborhood was quiet and very well kept. The home was immaculate. The only compaint I have is that you can not adjust the thermostat lower than 74 so when we cooked it got a little hot in the house. Other than that everything was perfect. Close to all the attractions and area beaches. Looking forward to our next stay- hopefully February .
Great Home for Disneyworld vacation
This was a family vacation to Disneyworld with our 4 children ages ranging from 5-13 and this house was perfect for our family of 6! The kids could hardly wait to return from the parks to take a swim in the pool. I recommend having it heated if your heading to Florida in the winter months. We felt very safe in the neighborhood and a Walmart was close by for groceries. The drive to Disney was about 25 minutes which was perfect for the kids to unwind after a busy day. The house was very clean and had all the amenities we were looking for. Thanks for helping to make our trip to Florida so enjoyable!
Wonderful, clean and comfortable home
This was our families first visit to Florida. As we have three children it took a while to save so that we could take them on a trip of a life time within our budget. The Villa was immaculately clean and presented beautifully with the table set, rooms neat and nicely furnished to accommodate a family of five.
We had debated staying on the Disney resort, however we also wanted to have our own space and to make meals when we chose. This home was able to give us both. We barbecued, were able to swim when it was too hot for the parks and then it was close enough that we could return in the evening when it was cooler. Having the ability to do laundry on site was also great as it meant not bringing home piles of laundry to have to do after our vacation. We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this home it was affordable, comfortable, roomy and gave everyone privacy with the bonus of two washrooms. Our girls enjoyed going to Disney and Universal they are at a great age to stay out a bit later, come home jump in the pool and go to bed and get ready for the next day!
We have already suggested your home to other friends who are thinking of a Disney Vacation!
Thank you very much
Great place, great rental experience
This was our first HomeAway/VRBO rental and the experience was fantastic. We had a different rental inquiry fall through, and when I began communicating with the owners about this property, it instantly felt more professional and comfortable--things noticeably missing with my other inquiry. The house was exactly as described and the check-in process was also exactly what we were told to expect. The furniture and beds were comfortable and clean, and the decorations were simple, making it a good house for families with small children (like us) who don't want to be worrying constantly that their kids will break something. The weather was decently warm for April when we were there, so we were able to enjoy the pool in the evenings. We had one small hiccup during our stay, which was a smoke detector that began to chirp for a new battery. We left a message for the property managers, and by the time we returned from our day's excursion, the problem had been fixed.
While we stayed there, we took the kids on a long-awaited trip to Legoland. We took a couple other days to explore some things in the area, and really enjoyed Bok Tower Gardens. Another excursion we did that was a real hidden gem was Polk's Nature Discovery Center. If you want to see real Florida wildlife in a not-too-wild setting, this is great. We followed one of the trails (which our 8 and 5yo boys handled walking) and had a 'gator spotting contest. (We found eleven.) And after seeing lots of other reviews about it, yes, we had to try Manny's. Yes, it's that good. Tons of really great food, great service, and they have a "kids eat free" night, which is a wonderful bonus when traveling with three hungry boys.
So overall, we are very happy with our stay at Play Under the Palms Villa. Highly recommended and if we ever travel back to the area, we will definitely look into it again.
Lovely home, beautifully appointed.
We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in this lovely home. Every convenience was provided. We did purchase a box fan to help with comfort in the front bedrooms; ceiling fans/lights would be a wonderful addition. Thank you, though, for a most enjoyable vacation.
