We spent 2 weeks here in July and we really enjoyed our stay at this lovely villa.
The property is undergoing some upgrades and recent changes were noticeable, the new carpets were soft underfoot and the TVs and kitchen appliances were all new and it’s freshly painted throughout. The sofas in both of the reception rooms are really comfy and are much nicer than they look in the pictures. The outdoor furniture was high quality and the loungers were very comfy. It’s a south facing pool so gets the sun all day! We used the games room quite a few times too. The facilities were almost perfect.
We found the accommodation fresh, clean, spacious and very well furnished and resourced for large groups. We felt quite greedy having it all to ourselves as a family of 5 - It could easily accommodate 2/3 families if you are looking to make a group booking.
The bedrooms are all beautifully decorated and spacious. As some reviewers have said, we did find some beds uncomfortable - but the owner is in the middle of an upgrading program and these are on the list. I’m sure these will have been done soon. All communications with Elizabeth and her management company were excellent with friendly and prompt responses.
Watersong is so well maintained and very clean, quiet and secure. My husband and eldest son walked up and used the gym most days. The clubhouse and pool are very quiet as most people use their own pools. We went to look at the neighbouring Providence complex out of curiosity - as I had looked at it online and thought it had better facilities due to having a restaurant / golf / pool slides etc. However - on seeing it in person - the site is far too big. The pool was not big at all, the restaurant is hardly ever open. I’d choose Watersong over it any day!!
The resort is a little away from the theme parks and International Drive - it’s close to Davenport and Haines City. There’s plenty of restaurants and shopping within a 10 min drive, and there’s a new retail park being built v close to the resort which will have a Publix and other units within 3/5 mins drive - it should be open by next year I reckon. This will be perfect! Disney / Idrive is about 25-40 mins depending on traffic. It’s only about 10/15 mins to Championsgate / Four Corners area too, so there’s lots to choose from there.
So in summary, if you’re looking at Tily’s right now - and it is available, then just book it :)
