Hi Shawn! Thank you so much for your kind words. We strive to exceed all our guests’ expectations. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
My sons loved the themed room while my husband and I particularly liked the theatre room. It was so convenient that restaurants and marts were nearby, it saved us the hassle of cooking and we mostly ate out. Loved everything.

Villatel contacted us well in advance of our reservation to transfer us to an identical property called Storybook Escape which is just several homes away from Beauty and the Beach. We appreciate they proactively moved us to a different unit.

Hi Diane! Thank you for taking the time to review your most recent stay at Villatel. It was our pleasure to host you and do hope to see you again soon!
The home was the perfect layout for 6 adults and four kids. It was decorated beautifully. It was nice to have our own private pool and the resort pool was really big and nice. The kids loved the movie theater, arcade game, and pop a shot basketball game. The place could use some measuring cups and spoons and new pans. There were some random hairs all over the master bathroom floor and shower. It definitely could’ve been cleaned more thoroughly.

Hosted by Villatel Team
Hi, we’re Villatel. We apply upscale hotel standards to the villa rental experience. Villa + hotel = Villatel, get it?

How can we achieve that? As a vertically integrated hospitality brand, we’re the ONLY company that owns the ENTIRE process of creating and managing vacation rentals—from building, custom-designing, and servicing each and every home, to providing elevated customer service to you, our esteemed guests. So we don’t just wait and hope you have an incredible getaway. We pull every lever possible to make it a reality.

What makes this property unique
As seasoned travelers with big families, our founders saw firsthand the drawbacks and inconsistencies of the average vacation rental. So, they set out to build and design from scratch a type of vacation property that offers everything they couldn’t find:
Consistently beautiful décor
High bed counts (for up to 34 guests!)
Ultra-spacious living and dining rooms
Epic themed bedrooms for kids
Arcades and movie theaters
Fully stocked kitchens with high-end appliances
The most UNIQUE and MEMORABLE amenities to make your vacay experience unforgettable—from bowling alleys and treehouse rooms to indoor ninja obstacle courses, casinos, karaoke rooms, and huge spa pools.
Gone are the days of bunking with all the kids on squeaky cots, or trekking across land and sea, only to discover that those online pictures you thought you’d be seeing in person…are actually 15 years old! When you book with Villatel, you can rest assured that you and your crew will enjoy a new kind of vacation experience—in a custom-designed home that’s consistently beautiful & reliable, and offers great value.
