We had a wonderful stay in this charming, clean historic home, perfectly located within walking distance of shops and restaurants. It was incredibly comfortable, and we loved being able to explore everything on foot. The host was flexible, responsive, and easy to communicate with, which made the experience even better. A perfect spot for a girls’ trip!
This property was just as advertised. Host was very accommodating. Location was convenient to all shops & activities. We will definitely book this again.
Everything was great at this house. It was immaculate and well equipped with anything you would need for a stay. The location was perfect. We were able to easily walk to town for eating and shopping. The host met us upon arrival and was very kind and offered several suggestions for restaurants and activities. All in all it was a wonderful trip!
The host was very welcoming and the house was immaculate and had everything we needed for our weekend stay. We were attending a wedding and could not have been happier with our accommodations!
It was the perfect place! Check in was so easy, hosts were communicative, house was amazing! We would go back in a heartbeat! Walking distance to everything!!!! We never moved the car!
James was a wonderful host! We have family in the area so the Royellou House was just perfect for our needs. Close to downtown & we so enjoyed the front porch. Would definitely stay again.
This location was very convenient. Easy walking to shops and restaurants. Love being able to control temperatures in various rooms. Super clean and GREAT parking!
The house was very clean, walking distance to town, well equipped kitchen, nice area for my sister, brother and their spouses to gather and play cards, good area restaurants. Weather was very nice too. Great few days!
Hands down the best VRBO experience! The house is perfectly set up with EVERYTHING you need. James (the host) was so helpful and accommodating. Cannot recommend this house enough to anyone visiting the Mt Dora area.
I can’t say enough about this rental, and our host! The place was immaculate, and had many unexpected comforts. The owners thought of everything a guest could need and made sure it was there! A stay. I’ll be back!
This was a beautiful home in a great location. The house was immaculate with many thoughtful touches and amenities. The location is perfect. Would highly recommend this lovely home.
Excellent stay. The house is great full kitchen, linens, one master bed 2 nd floor, two on fist floor, plenty of parking, maybe half mile walk to town or less (easy walk). Download Freebee shuttle which is enclosed golf cart service. They work on tips Tim and Dale who picked us up were great. Never a wait. Highly recommend this place located near everything. Will stay again.
This is a great house! It has been completely renovated so while keeping the aesthetic appeal of its 1887 age, it feels like you are in a modern house with very comfortable amenities. The host greeted us upon arrival and made us feel welcome. Beds are comfy and the location is ideal. You could walk to downtown Mt Dora from this location. Front bedroom is a little noisy, so bring ear plugs and you’ll sleep fine. We enjoyed our stay at 1887 Royellou House!
