Just what a family of 5 needed to make a memorable Disney vacation! House is so close to the parks, clean, comfortable. Owner and property mgr are very responsive and polite. Highly recommended!!!
Great location to the theme parks but for restaurants and shopping as well. The neighborhood is very quiet and well tended. The house was roomy and comfortable. Highly recommend!
Roomy house in perfect location. My family enjoyed the pool every evening after our busy days at the parks. Secure, quiet location with every amenity in the house.
Loved our stay. Home is well appointed and management quick to respond as needed. Pool is a real bonus. Hot tub to relax and pool for a swim. Pet friendly was a welcome amenity. Just a short hop to the Magic Kingdom. Go ahead….Mickey is waiting.

The house was exactly as advertised, great location.
Communications with the owner were good.
Management company responded immediatly when we had a small issue with the garbage disposal.
Would definatly stay again, highly recommend this property.
The house was beautiful, spacious, and clean. It’s very close to Disney world which was great! Clyde was also great at answering any questions I had before my stay. We never had any issues while there so I never needed to contact him or the property manager. I would definitely stay here again!

We have a 42" and 55" TV in the two family rooms as posted on the VRBO description and video. We will look into the leak as the guest never informed us of this matter. We just had the roof replaced and home re-stuccoed earlier this year with no issues.
While the house had great space, it needed extensive repairs and cleaning. The pool and spa heat never worked and while we called multiple times, never had anyone fix it. Pool deck and furniture were filthy. Barbecue was rusty, dirty and tank left empty. Gutters were falling off the house. Inside, dirty floors, walls, food wrappers under the coffee table, bugs and layers of dust on windowsills and floorboards. Furniture was worn.

Other than the pool heater, guest never reported other matters. The pool heater was reviewed and replaced in the new year when the pool service people were available. We kept the guest informed as the pool service people had limited availabilty over the Xmas break. I have also ordered a house deep clean even though prior and subsequent guests had no issue with cleanliness or furniture matters or outdoor bbq. We always want the best stay for guests and encourage them to report any issues immediately so our managment company can address.
The property was clean and well stocked. We have booked numerous properties in the area over the years, and this was one of the nicest. The bedrooms and beds were nice. We loved having three bathrooms. The kitchen was well stocked with what we needed to cook. The location is great for eating out, shopping, and getting to the parks. We didn't really use the pool because it was cold and pool heat only goes so far, but it looked lovely. We appreciated that we could bring out dog, and the neighborhood was friendly. I've stayed in some where the HOA was terrible to deal with on parking and getting in and out. This one was friendly and easy to deal with.
Great house, exactly as described. Excellent location if going to parks. Had some issues that were resolved quickly. Ac stopped working but management had it fixed within a few hours. Pool skimmer was non existing, they delivered one within hours, propane was empty and again was delivered next day. House does need some upgrades such as patio door. Very hard to open. Overall great communication and a great place to stay. Would definitely rent again.
We enjoyed the property. It was clean and welcoming. Gated and felt safe trails, community pool and activities, and dog friendly was appreciated . General maintenance of patio door. Shower flow/ draining were disappointing but manageable. We did not call the management company regarding this. It did not affect our stay greatly and was not urgent , just things to have followed up on
We loved the area and the amenities the resort offered. The pool and hot tub on site were great. The down side was that I expected the house to provide more basic amenities. There was minimum toilet paper laundry and dishwasher supplies. No salt pepper or coffee filters. We were not aware that we would have to spend money for all of these things that we only needed small amounts of. Maybe this is common practice but was inconvenient. The house was comfortable and the location was awesome. We will definitely be back to the area in the future. The sliding door was very hard to open/close but the Lina I area was great.

About the host
Hosted by Clyde
My wife Amanda and I purchased our Disney Forest Home at Emerald Island, Kissimmee to enjoy the wonders of Disney with our now four young boys. I am a Canadian Chartered Accountant and my wife is an Insurance Underwriter. Family time is important to us with our children and we hope that those that rent our property will treasure the memories of their Disney family vacations as we do. We take pride in our property ownership and are constantly upgrading the features in our house to create an even greater vacation experience for our guests.
Why they chose this property
We selected Emerald Island for ownership as we preferred a gated and guarded community for safety issues with very close proximity to the Disney resort parks and local Orlando attractions. We wanted an environment where we felt we were on vacation and the luxury at Emerald Island provided exactly that. We have a very short walk to the Resort Clubhouse to enjoy a drink and snack at the community pool/sauna/spa, the nature walk is fabulous and peaceful, we love playing tennis, and the community is surrounded by water making additional development impossible to protect the exclusivity and privacy of the Emerald Island Resort.
What makes this property unique
Our property is unique to other vacation homes in the community as we back onto the conservation forest/nature walk. While other properties face the backyards of homes, have exposure to wind due to open space, or do not have day long sunlight, our backyard is peaceful and private with day long exposure to the sun so you really can relax when taking a swim or enjoying the upgraded Whirlpool Jacuzzi jet spa. Our house has undergone a full painting, replacement of carpet in all common areas with tile or laminate flooring, new leather furniture, new area rugs, two (2) new HD LCD Big Screen TVs one with Blu-Ray player and the other with DVD player, new kitchen furniture, new linnens & towels, new coffee table set, new kitchen small appliances, new kitchen stainless steel appliances; new home pictures and decorations, new pool aluminum patio furniture & pool accessories, new automated pool & spa heater, new AC, and updated landscaping and new outdoor propane BBQ. The AC is a new 4 Ton A/C unit to properly cool the home and new Pool/Spa Heater. Our guests can also enjoy WIFI Internet and Unlimited Long Distance calls to the USA and Canada to keep in touch with relatives or your business affairs at home. Our floor plan offers 1,935 square feet of living space on a single level and with no stairs, improves access for elderly, handicapped, wheelchair guests and provides for a cooler living environment. Our home has only tile and laminate flooring with no carpet in living areas. We are comitted to keepying our home clean and updated for the full enjoyment of our guests.
