About this property
Whispering Waters Retreat in Mount Dora
Welcome to your exclusive lakefront oasis Dora Royale. This beautifully renovated three-bedroom, two-bath single-family home sits directly on the serene shores of Lake Dora. The house offers the perfect blend of luxury, relaxation, and adventure, just minutes from historic downtown Mount Dora with its antique shops, restaurants, festivals, and scenic waterfront.
Inside the bright and open living spaces, you will find modern finishes, a fully equipped kitchen with stainless appliances and everything needed for easy meals, high-speed wifi , a smart TV, and plenty of room to unwind. Step outside to your own private paradise featuring a fenced screened pool for year-round enjoyment, multiple outdoor entertaining areas, lush landscaping, and breathtaking lake views.
The true highlight is the direct lakefront access with a private screened dock, perfect for boating, fishing, or simply enjoying the sunsets. Your stay includes a complimentary CraigCat boat, a fun and easy-to-operate mini catamaran-style vessel that does not require a boating permit for low-speed use (driver must be 18+ with a valid driver's license). Several Trek bicycles are provided so you can explore the scenic area, downtown, or nearby trails at your own pace. Our complimentary street-legal golf cart is available for our guests to explore the surrounding area and take you to downtown Mount Dora or local spots with ease and style. Fishing rods are available for guests who enjoy casting a line right from the dock. As a special touch, the stay comes with one complimentary Rolls-Royce Ghost chauffeured transportation trip to your favorite local restaurant, making for a truly memorable evening out.
We spared no expense for our guests to enjoy a unique experience: all beds are made with luxury hotel quality bedding specifically from Frette and Sferra. Sink into crisp, breathable percale sheets that feel cool, matte, and impossibly soft against the skin, paired with an ultra-fluffy down-alternative duvet insert that puffs up like a cloud, creating that plush and inviting feel guests love. Supportive low-profile flat pillows in the classic Tommy Bahama style offer thin, customizable comfort, ideal for stomach sleepers or anyone who prefers a pancake-flat setup. Fresh high-quality linens and plush towels are provided throughout the home.
The location adds even more appeal. You can walk or bike to downtown Mount Dora's vibrant scene, including restaurants, breweries, shops, and the Lake Dora waterfront. The property is also convenient for exploring top attractions such as Grantham Pointe Lighthouse, Dora Canal tours, and more, while remaining just 40 minutes from Orlando theme parks like Disney and Universal, beaches, or the Central Florida Zoo. Central air conditioning keeps everything comfortable year-round, self check-in makes arrival effortless, and free parking is available. The home is smoke-free with spotless turnovers between stays (pet policy available upon request).
This serene retreat is ideal for couples, small families, or groups seeking a luxurious waterfront escape. No parties or events are permitted to preserve the peaceful atmosphere. We respond quickly and are always here to help make your stay unforgettable.
Book now for lakefront luxury, adventure, and the best sleep of your vacation.
