We had a lovely stay at this property, which was exactly as described and had everything we needed for our family holiday. The estate itself is beautiful and well maintained, with stunning views overlooking the lake from the back of the property.The location was ideal for exploring the local attractions while also providing a relaxing place to return to after busy days out.Our host was fantastic throughout, always friendly, helpful and quick to respond whenever we got in touch.Overall, a really enjoyable stay and somewhere we’d happily recommend to others visiting the area.

Wow. Wonderful. A really fantastic south facing villa with a lovely view out over the lake. The villa was very clean and tidy with very nice decor throughout and everything supplied to make an enjoyable stay. The villa is situated in a secure guarded quiet area in Kissimmee close to a Walmart and easy access to the main Disney World access routes. The owner, Maddie, was very easy to communicate with and very helpful. I have stayed at various villas around the Kissimmee and Eagle Point area and this villa comes highly recommended. Thank you for a very enjoyable stay.

I absolutely LOVED my stay! Check-in was smooth and easy—the host was great, very communicative, and the instructions were clear, which made everything stress-free.The place was spotless and felt welcoming right from the start. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything I needed—from utensils to pots and pans—so cooking was super convenient.Everything was close by—shops, restaurants, and attractions—which made getting around really easy. I have no complaints at all. It was a comfortable, convenient, and enjoyable experience. I would definitely come back again!

Comfortable home in great location

Very comfortable property that suited not only my teenage daughters but my elderly grandfather as well. The pool and outdoor area was great and the kids also enjoyed the ducks and turtles in the lake. The house itself was very comfortable and the master bedroom and en suite bathroom suited my grandfather perfectly as he has limited mobility. There were plenty of towels, the kitchen was well-equipped and bedrooms all comfortable. The location was great too - there's a Walmart within walking distance and plenty of restaurants, supermarkets etc nearby. The parks are all within short driving distance. But best of all was Maddie - she was a dream to rent from, friendly, responsive and always ready to help. I can't recommend her place enough and we'll definately be back.

Very nice big house with decent pool and nice hot tub.

We spend 3 nights at Maddie's house and had a great time! the pool and the hot tub were great (although not that big as we imagined based on the pictures); the games room was amazing and the beds super comfortable. The neighborhood is super quiet and the small lake is ok. Recommended for a large group./ w/ or w/o kids.

Great Christmas Vacation Home for our family

The house was great. With the 5 bedrooms we could accommodate our son and his twins, our daughter and her husband and of course us so that at night we had our separate areas. The common areas were large and could seat all of us. The den was great as the twins could get away and play and not be bothered. The kitchen was well equipped for when we wished to cooked. The house is a short distance from many restaurants. It is easy to come and go through the gated area. The heated pool is screened and was a nice get away for the children is the winter time. Also there are walking trails around the lake so the family could get out. Of course it is near Disney for the great time for all. We would highly recommend the home and when we visit Disney again will try to stay there again.

Outstanding stay in a "dream home"

We (a family of 6 with 4 adults and 2 teenagers stayed at Southview Easter week as a base to explore Orlando and visit the parks. From booking onwards we were assisted by the owner Maddie in impeccable fashion, read the reviews, its for real, this lady has a passion for her dream home and is an absolute delight to deal with, she really does go the extra mile to ensure that you have the very best chance of enjoying your stay. The property itself is outstanding, spacious, clean and equiped with so many extras that make a stay special right down to the fishing rods on the wall in the games room so that you can try your hand in the lake. If i could pick up Southview and drop it at home i would happily live in it for good! Ideally placed with easy access to the parks and just over an hours drive to the beach, yet close enough to numerous eateries and supermarkets all of which are clearly detailed within the house guide. As its name suggests the villa is indeed South facing and the pool area benefits the gorgeous sunshine for so much of the day. This was our first trip to Orlando but suffice to say that if returning we would not consider anywhere else to stay. Top tip ... take a ride out to Boggy Creek and get yourself an air boat ride to see the Gators up close and personal !! Many thanks Maddie for allowing us to share yours and Dennis's dream home, however could you please arrange for fish to jump on hooks, i sat on Dennis's bench for hours and they just don't like me !!!

As for not having any luck catching anything, Den didn’t always, me thinks he just liked to be out there away from me. Wishing you and yours much happiness. Much love, Maddie xxx

GREAT EXPERIENCE!!!

We had a fantastic vacation and very comfortable accommodations. The house was very spacious and beds were comfortable. The owner (Madeleine) was very responsive and helpful with any questions I had; really enjoyed talking to her on the phone. Only thing I would add to the property is another guest book; seems like everyone has enjoyed their stay and you need another book so folks can continue to write about their visit; there was no room for us to write. Again...we had a wonderful experience and we would recommend this house to all. Thank You!

Excellent place to stay for a family vacation!

Southview is an excellent choice to stay for a family vacation. We had a group of 11 and there was plenty of room to comfortably entertain and sleep everyone! We really appreciated having our own private pool and spa for those late night or early morning swims, although we could use the Club House pool as well if we wanted. The view was spectacular! It was so nice to wake up with our morning coffee and enjoy a serene lakefront view. The kitchen was fully stocked and it was also great to have a full size grill for cooking. The home had plenty of bath and beach towels, and there was a huge washer and dryer. The development and grounds were well kept and it was nice to be in a place that had 24-hour security. The home was only a 2 minute drive to a 24-hour Walmart, Wawa, and several fast food restaurants or other services. You could also easily walk to these as well! Maddie provided excellent directions to the home from the airport, to Disney and other attractions in the Orlando area. We had such a relaxing and wonderful time! We can't wait to come back again!

An amazing home

We want to thank Maddie for allowing us to use her beautiful home. My husband and I treated our three adult children and our daughter-in-love to a trip to Disney and Universal in December and were able to use this beautiful property. Everyone had their own bedroom and bath and there is tons of room to spread out. The best part of this experience was dealing with Maddie. She is a total sweetheart and so accommodating and I feel that I made a new friend. The house had every amenity we could possibly use and was well decorated and clean. The guys enjoyed fishing right outside our door and I sat on Dennis's memory bench as I promised Maddie I would do. We highly recommend this home to anyone visiting the Orlando area. It is very convenient to the parks and has tons of shopping and restaurants within a few minutes drive. Many thanks to Maddie for treating us as her guests even tho she was far away in England. She is only a phone call away if you have any questions or issues and she responds within a few hours or even minutes. We only needed one minor thing done while we were there and it was attended to right away. Thank you Maddie!

Over the years I have been so lucky to have met so many honest, kind and wonderful guests who have helped me to continue with Den's Florida dream. Without you all it would have been lost, for that I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I hope your shoulder continues healing and wish you and yours true family happiness and good health!
