My wife & I went down with our 2 kids (7 & 9), and the grand parents. All adults had a king bed and just about a dedicated bathroom (downstairs bedroom shares full bath with main floor). The kids elected to share 1 of the 3 themed bedrooms. The king beds were all very comfortable, & the kids were so exhausted by the end of each day, they would have slept standing up.
The property has an enclosed pool and hot tub (not a jacuzzi) that we elected to pay to have heated for our stay ($400 +/-), and are happy we did, because our kids used the pool every morning.
The property is no more than 20-25 minutes from any of the Disney parks or Universal Studios & a little more than 30 minutes from the airport.
The property also has access to a wonderful clubhouse, community pool, complete with splash pad and water slides, arcade and small convenience store on the premises.
Only 2 small criticisms. 1 - having family in the Tampa area, Grandma had planned to stay with her son and his family for a couple of nights, however we could not have any additional vehicles enter the gated community without a $200 fee. So we had to drive out of the community and make the handoff (probably not an issue for most renters).
The other issue we had was also not a deal breaker, but more of an inconvenience. The soap, dishwasher tablets, dish soap, sponge, laundry detergent, shampoo, conditioner, toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, and other âamenitiesâ provided lasts one use. So be prepared to spend an extra $100 or so on staples. No Salt or Pepper was provided either. To be fair, this may be due to COVID-19 to some degree.
Furthermore, for a house that can accommodate 3 couples and 6 kids comfortably, the pans provided left much to be desired. We found 1 frying pan, and couldnât cook eggs in it because they would stick regardless of how much butter I put into the pan. We bought a new inexpensive frying pan at the Walmart down the street along with a pot to cook a Bertoli frozen meal for the kids one night and Mac nâcheese in.
Restaurants and Walmart are close by. All and all we had a wonderful time and would be happy to recommend this home for your familyâs stay.
