About this property

Ruby’s Retreat | Luxe suites, big PVT pool & patio - mins to Universal & airport

Urban sophistication meets cozy vibes in this super chic 4-bedroom gem on Orlando's International Drive–steps from the best theme parks, attractions, dining, and shopping this epic city has to offer. Set your bags down in one of three delicious king bedrooms, and send the littles off to enjoy the whimsical themed bedroom—where their imaginations will run as wild as the Universal Orlando coasters down the road. Start or end your day at your private pool ft. loungers, a patio table, and more.

Kindly Note: While this home is finished & fabulous, the resort's amenity center and remaining units are under construction; amenities will be open in early 2025.

LIVING ROOM/ DINING ROOM:
Steps past the front door, a chic foyer gives way to a light-filled, open-concept dining and living space. Eight elegant chairs surround an oval-shaped, deep wood table, situated beneath a modern rounded chandelier. The adjacent living room offers a large, plush sectional and armchair, surrounded by artsy mirrors, wall paintings, and a large TV. From movie night to chilling with fam and friends–this will be your go-to spot.

Dining room
• Long Table – 95” x 43”

Let’s face it, it’s not a vacay without amazing Food–and in this villa, meals and snacks are on tap whenever you want ‘em, thanks to your own, fully-equipped kitchen! From high end appliances to a full stock of cookware and tableware, you’ll have everything you need to cook up (or warm up ;) a feast. And for an added plus, this space is easy on the eyes, with its sleek light gray cabinetry, white countertops and island, stainless appliances, and modern hanging fixtures.

What you’ll find:
• Island with 3 stools
• French door fridge with freezer drawer

• 4-burner stove
• Full set of cookware & tableware

LAUNDRY ROOM:
Put away that extra suitcase of clothes–because a built-in washer and dryer on the second floor means you can clean and rewear your stuff! Gone are the days of piling up mounds of laundry in plastic hotel-room bags and returning home with hours of chores. Especially you moms and dads out there, this in-house amenity may just be the most exciting part of the trip. ;)

POOL/PATIO:
Pool days are an integral part of any Orlando vacay–and this villa features its very own! Start or end your day with a splash, without even leaving the front door. Whether you’re taking a dip in the refreshing water, sunbathing on a comfy lounger, or dining al fresco at the patio table, this outdoor oasis is a dream spot for R&R.

Going to bed in any of the three sleek, spacious, and stunning bedrooms will feel like a mini getaway of its own. Plush mattresses and cozy white linens invite you to jump in for long, cozy zzz’s, surrounded by luxe, chic decor in cool blue and neutral hues. Forewarning: you may end up wanting to skip the night activity and hit the sack early!

THEMED BEDROOM (4 TWINS):
Ogre's Grove:
Enter this enchanting ‘Ogre’s Grove’ themed bedroom to discover two towering bunk beds snugly tucked within majestic tree trunks. The little ones will feel like true adventurers as they scale the side of the bed using the mini rock wall–before embarking on an exhilarating descent down the green slide from the top bunk to the forest floor below.

What’s more: the walls of this magical room come alive with captivating forest wall art, featuring lush green and brown trees, grass, expansive skies, and thick, twisting tree trunks. Get set to let your imagination run wild amidst the wonders of nature–and keep an eye out for the ogres that call this place home!

New, clean, and easy!
Booking was straight forward, easy, and quite price competitive. Before our arrival, a detailed email was sent to me with clear directions, instructions for the first time coming through the gate, and instructions for parking, unique front door passcode, etc. It was well located so it made it easy to get around. It was 20 mins from the airport, 8 mins from restaurants, groceries, gas stations, and shops. Only 10 mins from Universal and 22 from Disney. The property had the number of beds needed to sleep 10, from 7 different beds, and three separate bathrooms to give the privacy needed. There were bath/hand/wash towels to go around, and extras just in case, and separate pool towels too. The back patio and pool were a great touch. Coming from high elevation mountains, the heat and humidity of Orlando was rough, but being able to come home each night and cool down in our own private pool was awesome. The AC unit and ceiling fans operated well so sleeping was very comfortable. The kitchen is sufficiently stocked with fridge/freezer, oven/stove, and microwave so that a grocery run upon our arrival made it easy to make breakfast each morning, keep snacks and drinks fresh for the next days activities, and even bake cookies at night too. The gated community helped us feel safe, as did a convenient parking spot right outside our front door. Throughout our stay, our host would occasionally check in, via text, to make sure we were taken care of. I highly recommend!
