Nice home.

Catherine was very accommodating and we appreciate how responsive everyone was to our requests (even when it was our mistake!). The only improvement I would suggest would be to allow guests to adjust the thermostats as it was locked at 76 degrees.

comments on ceiling fans

unit was very nice, very clean, and well maintained. great pool area. Plenty of sun and shade. All the pool furniture was nice. Location is wonderful. However, none of the bedrooms upstairs had ceiling fans, and you could not adjust the temperature of the unit. It was very uncomfortable upstairs. Sleep upstairs was terrible. Never rented a unit that did not have ceiling fans in all bedrooms. For that reason alone, we would not rent this unit again.

Lovely Villa

We stayed here for 2 weeks and can honestly say it was a lovely place to stay. Very clean, spacious and just a homely feel from the second we stepped through the door. On average it would take us about 45 minutes to get to the parks from the Villa, could be more or less depending on the I4 traffic but we found it to be a great base location. Great communication with owner, easy to find with the directions Cath provided. Would definitely recommend 👍

Fabulous family getaway

Property was exactly as described with all the amenities that were needed for our family of 7. We traveled to Universal, Sea World, and Aquatica most days and the travel was long due to large amounts of traffic on I-4 but that was nothing against the property. We knew that it was quite far away but wanted what this property had to offer and we were not disappointed! Would definitely stay again if we are in this area for another trip!!

About the host

Hosted by Catherine Hems

Host profile image
I live in North West England with my husband. We both work full time and spend what ever holidays we can in the villa. It's like home from home. We fell in love with Disney the first time we went in 1993 and visited Florida 3 more times before deciding to buy a property. We have 2 grownup daughters who are as nutty about. Disney as we are and they join us whenever commitments allow. The climate suits us and the people out there are so friendly and helpful. I still feel a ripple of excitement every time we go knowing that the weather, even if it rains, will be warmer than back in England and we can relax and forget about work.

Why they chose this property

We chose Calabay Parc at Tower Lake because it was a new development. With easy access to the theme parks and other areas of Florida it was an ideal central location to have a base. Disney is approximately 30 minutes away, near enough to get to but far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle of the crowds. Being a gated community meant that the area would be relatively secure for ourselves and our guests. There are many shops, takeaways and restaurants within a 15 minute drive, including a large Walmart with filling station less than 5 minutes away. The grounds in Calabay Parc are well kept with plenty of room between villas and overall is quiet, peaceful and relaxing.

What makes this property unique

Being a 2 storey property, 3 of the 4 bedrooms are upstairs making the open plan ground floor very light and spacious. There is a den area upstairs with a foosball table, TV and DVD should the children want to do or watch something different. The back of the villa is south facing getting the sun from dawn to dusk. The private pool has safety fencing separating it from a large patio area where children can play, adults can relax and the family can enjoy a BBQ (provided). The pool and patio can be accessed from the dining area, lounge and 1st master bedroom. We also provide, free of charge, a cot/playpen, highchair and stair gate, towels, bed linen and a hairdryer. English Premiership football is available most days during the season along with free local and national telephone calls.
