About the host
Hosted by Homes by Villatel
Hi, we're Homes by Villatel.
We're a vacation rental management company that runs on hotel-grade discipline. The idea is simple: give you the space and privacy of a vacation home, with the reliability and consistency you'd expect from a trusted hotel brand. Same standard, every home, every stay.
Here's what that means for your trip. Every home we manage has to meet defined standards for design, cleanliness, and amenities before it ever reaches you. If a home doesn't clear that bar, it doesn't carry our name. So when you book with Homes by Villatel, you're not guessing what you'll walk into. No surprises, no gap between the photos and the front door, just a home that's exactly as represented.
Behind the listing is a team that has spent years at the intersection of hospitality and vacation rentals, from managing premium homes to building and running our own communities. We handle it all ourselves, marketing, guest service, cleaning, and maintenance, so there's always someone accountable when you need something.
Our homes are built for families and groups who want room to spread out and the confidence that comes with professional management. Whether it's a multigenerational trip, a reunion, a golf getaway, a week near the parks, or time at the beach, we want the home to be the easy part of your vacation.
We're glad you're here, and we look forward to hosting you!
Why they chose this property
We chose this home for its spot at Harbor Island Beach Club, a private beachfront community on Florida's Space Coast and the closest beach destination to Orlando. The home sits just steps from the Atlantic, on one of the most beautiful and undeveloped stretches of coastline in the state. This is the quiet side of Florida's beaches, no high-rises, no boardwalk crowds, no traffic, just soft sand, open ocean, and room to breathe. Days here move at their own pace: a walk on the beach at sunrise, an afternoon in the water with the kids, and evenings watching the sky change over the dunes. It's the kind of place where you settle in, unplug, and let the ocean set the rhythm, with the theme parks and the Space Coast an easy drive away whenever you want them.
