Movie Magic House is a beautiful vacation rental villa 5 minutes from the Walt Disney World property in Kissimmee, Florida. It has 7 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms and a powder room The bedrooms include two master suites and four themed kid's rooms. This spacious villa sleeps 14 people in total comfort. The functional floor plan boasts a bright, open living room which is open to the second floor, a gaming nook with an XBoxOne, a separate dining area and a kitchen with a large island. The southern facing, saltwater swimming pool with attached spa sits on a huge pool deck surrounded by a screen enclosure and privacy plantings. The large, covered lanai runs the length of the house and has tables for outdoor dining. No vacation villa is complete without a game room and this one is no exception, featuring a pool table, a ping pong table (table tennis), a Foosball table and a dedicated beverage fridge. Let's explore all the amenities in more detail!

When searching for Florida vacation villas, one of the most commonly prized amenities is the pool, and Movie Magic House has a great one! This truly over-sized pool deck offers plenty of room to relax around this southern facing, saltwater pool with attached fully heating spa. No walking out of the house and falling into the pool here! Don't take our word for it, check it out on your favorite mapping site and see the size and orientation compared to other houses. A southern facing pool is desirable for the most sunshine on the pool throughout the day, but if it gets too hot, sip on a drink at one of the two table and chair sets with seating for eight located in the covered lanai. Make use of our ample wall-mounted bathing suit and towel hangers located in the covered lanai, so your wet swimwear and towels can stay outside even if it rains. The screen enclosure covering the pool deck keeps out the bugs and lizards, while the hedges will offer some privacy from the neighbors. If you have little ones, the pool alarms on all doors and the removable toddler fence provide a safer and more relaxing experience for all. If you are visiting in the cooler months, pool and/or spa heat are available for an additional charge.

The inside of this villa is just as spectacular as the outside. Upon entering the villa, you pass the newly remodeled gaming nook on your right and the stairway leading upstairs on the left. We took the "tiny" 55-inch TV from the living room and moved it to the gaming nook along with the XBoxOne. After the sitting room, you pass the formal dining room on your right. The dining room provides a separated area for eating, with seating for eight at the table. Opposite the dining room, there is a cabinet with a wireless printer which works with NFC and WiFi, so you can print those boarding passes, park tickets or maps right from your smart phone or tablet! There is also a charging station for your mobile devices. From the dining room, you emerge into the open living room and eat-in kitchen area. The living room is open to the second floor for that spacious feel and the sliding glass doors to the pool deck and large second story window above provide plenty of light. The living room boasts a 70-inch flat screen TV with free cable, a Bluray player and a collection of movies to enjoy. Of course, there is also complimentary high-speed (500 MB) wireless internet. The eat-in kitchen has seating for six and is fully equipped with all stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher, microwave, 14-cup coffee maker, 4-slice toaster and side-by-side fridge with filtered water and an ice maker. All the cookware, dishes and utensils you need are there including plastic dishes and glasses if you want to eat or enjoy a drink on the lanai.

The hallway off the living room leads to the powder room, laundry area and game room. In the laundry area, you will not only find the washer and dryer, but in the storage nook opposite the washer and dryer are the two pack-n-plays, two high-chairs and two strollers. We love families and children, so if there is something missing that you need for your baby, toddler, children or family, let us know and chances are we can supply it for your stay. Through the doorway past the laundry area is the Movie Magic House game room! The game room features a pool table, a ping pong table (table tennis), a Foosball table and dedicated beverage fridge. The game room is decorated with movie posters from some of our favorite family classics.

The first of the seven bedrooms is the spacious king suite, which is located on the first floor, off the living room. The king suite has a king bed, a walk-in closet with a hotel style safe, a wall mounted 40-inch flat screen TV and a huge private bathroom, featuring a shower and garden tub. The other six bedrooms are upstairs. On the right side of the second floor, you will find the queen suite, the Mickey Mouse twin room, a shared full bath and the Harry Potter twin room. The queen suite features a queen bed, a walk-in closet, a wall mounted 32-inch flat screen TV and a private bathroom with a tub shower combo. The Mickey Mouse room has beautiful Mickey décor, two twin beds, a wall mounted 24-inch flat screen TV and a closet organizer with drawers. Between the Mickey Mouse Room and the Harry Potter Room is the shared Mickey themed full bath with a tub shower combo. The Harry Potter Room has lovely Harry Potter décor, two twin beds, a wall mounted 24-inch flat screen TV and a closet organizer with drawers. On the left side of the second floor, you will find two more queen rooms, another shared full bath and the Star Wars room. The two queen rooms both feature a queen bed and wall mounted 24-inch flat screen TV. One of the queen bedrooms is themed with Pirates of the Caribbean decor which is suitable for children or adults. The Nemo/Dory themed shared bath has a tub shower combo. The Star Wars room has awesome Star Wars decor, a twin over full bunk bed and a wall mounted 32-inch flat screen TV. That's right, every bedroom has a wall mounted flat screen TV!

Security is not overlooked in our villas either. This villa is located in the gated community of Emerald Island Resort. The guardhouse is manned 24/7 and no one gets in or out without being registered. All of our villas have electronic door locks with a unique code for each guest, so no other prior or future guests have a working code. You can't say that for the old "lock box" villas! All of our villas also have and interior only deadbolt, so now worries about a property manager suddenly appearing in your space! All doors leading to the pool have door alarms and all latches for doors to the pool area are set 5 feet off the floor. All of our pools also have a removable toddler safety fence. This villa also has a phone with free calling in the US and Canada, which is also handy for emergency calls.

The final amenity of the Movie Magic House villa that you should consider, is the dedicated ownership! We purchased this lovely home in 2016. It was in need of a bit of TLC, but we have redecorated the whole villa and are constantly upgrading it! This is all we do for a living, so guest satisfaction is extremely important to us. The values we prize are cleanliness, a well-maintained house, a bright and cheery feeling and of course, fun! We hope you like our villa and enjoy a wonderful stay there! Try Movie Magic House for your next vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Gerry Leco

Host profile image
My wife and I live in western Pennsylvania. We have two wonderful teenagers. We love to travel and have been all over the United States and a good bit of Europe with our family. I have had the opportunity to travel around the US for business and have frequently taken my family. My mother is from the lovely country of Luxembourg, and still has close relatives there, so we have had the opportunity to explore many of the neighboring areas throughout Belgium, France and Germany. I can speak a little bit of French and a tiny bit of German. My brother spent about 8 years in England, and I was fortunate enough to have had the opportunity to visit him in this most beautiful of countries on several occasions. Our family would rarely travel to the same destination repeatedly with the exception of Orlando (there is just so much to do!). A few years ago, we traveled to Disney World with our family and 3 grandparents (7 of us total). My wife had the brilliant idea to rent a vacation home and we all enjoyed it so much, we decided to look into purchasing our own. We did so well with our first vacation property and had so much fun, that we decided to try a second one and see if we could duplicate our success. Things went so well with the second property that we have decided to sell all our long-term rentals in Pennsylvania and buy more vacation properties in Florida and this is our only business now. Our family usually enjoys one or two trips to our beautiful villas in Orlando each year, and the rest of the year we rent them out for others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

Our experience with our first vacation villa helped us to really target the features we value the most in a vacation home when identifying our second villa. The two criteria we absolutely require to even consider a home are close proximity to Disney and a southern facing pool. We see the listings for houses in Davenport and Clermont and even Champions Gate where they all claim they are five minutes from Disney, but it simply is not true! Emerald Island is one of the four or five short-term rental communities which are less than 3 miles from the Disney property, and Emerald Island is one of the nicest. It is the only community which has the beautiful feel of a Disney resort showing in its statuary and landscaping. The southern facing pool was a must have as well. When we looked at houses in the late afternoon that did not have southern facing pools, and we saw the pool and patio draped in shadow and we knew we would not want that and neither would our guests.

Some of the less obvious necessities can be just as important, though they may be harder to recognize. This house exhibits that bright and open feeling that just makes you happy as you enter it and begin to look around. We also need our be extremely clean. Tile floors in a light color in the main living areas help keep things bright and clean. The final thing which drew us to this particular house, is the lanai which runs the full length of the back of the house. When you have a house that will fit this many people in it, you need a large pool area, and having a large covered area near the pool is so wonderful when the hot Florida sun is out! We hope you find this villa as lovely as we do!

What makes this property unique

Below are just a few of the highlights that make this villa awesome!
- Southern facing, saltwater pool, on an oversized pool deck with privacy plantings. Saltwater pools are more sanitary and more comfortable, having milder chemicals. Pricay fences are not allowed in most communities with an HOA, so having privacy plantings is nice.
- Two master suites. The king suite is on the first floor, so easier for guests who have trouble with steps.
- Electronic door locks are the safest and most convenient way to manage guest access. Just go to the house and punch in your unique code!
- Wall mounted, flat screen TVs in all rooms. Everyone can have their own space to watch what they want, and there are no unsightly cables dangling on the walls!
- Located in one of the most beautiful communities in the area! Emerald Island Resort has lush landscaping, is secure and is also one of the closest communities to Disney.
