About this property

Pet-friendly, King bed, heatable private pool, games room, 3 miles to Disney.

This Excellent Vacation Home is of the Excellent Deluxe category. The villa is situated on Santee Drive in the Indian Creek sub-division, Kissimmee, just off exit 64 of the Interstate 4 (I4) and SR429. It is therefore only minutes to the Walt Disney World (only 3 miles), Universal Studios and Sea World theme parks, plus some of the world’s best golf courses. This villa offers free high-speed internet (cable and Wi-Fi) plus free local and long-distance calling within the United States and Canada.

The villa has many extras to make your stay very enjoyable. It has been furnished to a very good standard. The great floor plan places the family room right in the middle of the kitchen, 4 bedrooms, game room and the pool area.

Upon entering the villa, on the left hand side, you will find the game room with Pool Table and Ping Pong. Facing this game room you will find the first bathroom with vanity, shower tub and toilet. To the right is the first bedroom with Queen Bed, cable TV and closet. To the left you will find another bedroom, this one with 2 Single Beds, cable TV and closet.

Walking straight ahead, you will find the large family room with sleeper sofa and plenty of seating space. It has a large flat screen TV with digital cable and DVD player. On the left you find another bedroom with 2 Single Beds, cable TV and closet. It has a bathroom right next to it with vanity, shower tub and toilet.

Last but not least, on the other side of the family room, there is the Master bedroom with King bed (new for 2025), cable TV and en suite bathroom with dual vanity, bath tub, walk-in shower and separate toilet plus direct pool access. Direct pool access is a very convenient feature; step right from the pool deck into your bathroom for a quick shower after that refreshing swim.

The open, well fitted kitchen with a breakfast table (4 seats) is in the rear on the left. The kitchen includes a full size oven, built-in microwave, large fridge-freezer with ice-maker, waste disposal unit and dishwasher. There is also a full range of electrical appliances and utensils – everything you could want in your home away from home.

The inviting pool is accessible from the family room, through sliding patio doors. The whole pool area is screened in to keep the bugs out. Pool deck chairs and sun loungers allow for late night, pool side relaxing. The pool safety fence helps protect our youngest guests, together with the alarms installed on all doors leading to the pool deck. The pool can be heated, at an extra cost. As this property is Pet Friendly, there is even a doggy door leading to the area outside the pool deck.

Near the game room there is a laundry room with washing machine and dryer. Iron and iron board are present too.

The house is big and roomy. It is located in a nice quiet neighborhood close to Publix, Walmart, restaurants and most of all the Disney Theme Parks. For those bringing pets it has a nice big fence yard. The house could sure use new pots and pans and sofa set should get replace because they are wore out. I will come back next year to this house. You even can see the fireworks from Disney outside in the yard. Also, Rembert was great answering all questions I had from the beginning to end.

Great Choice for Families

We had a wonderful stay at this home. We have a large family and usually feel crowded when we are on vacation, but not here. It was wonderful to be able to bring dogs with us as well. Made our vacation much more enjoyable.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: REM, the home manager was very responsive to our needs. The information from Excellent Vacation Homes was on time and detailed. We were pleased with the service we received. The home itself, needs updating and deep cleaning inside and out. It was fine, and we had a good experience there.

This was a wonderful home for our familyvacation! We were able to bring our dogs and loved having the privacy fence to allow them to play off leash. The pool was beautiful and the property was clean and in good condition. We had six adults in our party and there was plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable without feeling cramped. The host was very responsive to messages. We would highly recommend this property.

This house was wonderful for our family and pets. We finally could go on vacation and not worry about our fur babies. We had fun at the parks and came home to a great house to relax in and swim. Very spacious. and quiet. Loved sitting around the pool relaxing. Any questions or concerns were addressed immediately. Great location, private and just a wonderful place to getaway. Our pups had a fenced in yard to play in as well. We didn’t want to leave….and we will be coming back to this property for sure soon. Thank you for the great memories of a family vacation!!

Amazing property close to Disney

We have been visiting Disney at least once a year for 36 years and have never stayed off property until this trip and it was amazing. Even my kids (14 and 9) said they would rather stay at this house every time!! We will definitely be back. Property was clean, convenient to everything and we had more than enough room!!!

This was the perfect home for our family vacation! Very few pool homes have a child safety fence. This feature allowed us to enjoy the pool and feel safer with our grandchildren. The property is in great shape with the expected wear and tear for the age. The house was completely clean and the pool was sparkling. They provide a ton of towels which was great. It is spacious and allowed us all to have room to be comfortable. I would highly recommend this property!

Great location for Disney!

The location of this stay was fantastic for my family’s Disney trip! The setup was great for the family to each have their own little spaces and room to wind down after a long day at the parks. Good location to stores and restaurants too. The yard is well fenced in and made a perfect place for us to bring our dogs along with us. I recommend this stay and will look for this on any future trips to the area!

Overall this was a fantastic and easy stay! Only thing I’d suggest is new knives and kitchen utensils to make cooking on site easier. Knives couldn’t cut veggies and the lack of kitchen materials was mind strengthening. But property is very well managed, neighborhood safe, lovely yard. Would/will definitely stay here again. Customer service was top notch.

Santee Drive Review

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall it was a very pleasant stay. We loved the location and the area was quiet for the most part. Voiced a few concerns to the property owner and they were quick to follow up with us. Only recommendations would be to enforce previous guests to clean up after their dogs in the backyard, or charge more to hire an additional cleaner for this.Last recommendation would be to update the mattresses and bed frames in the non-master guest bedrooms. The house was beautiful, the dogs had plenty of room to run around, and it felt like a very safe area. We would love to come stay again!!

Home was very clean, on the surface but can use a good duct cleaning - vents pool heat was great as there is no sun on the back yard in the winter! Furniture could use updating, master bed mattress need to be replaced. Great location to Disney

Nice house in a nice neighborhood

Just three of us were here but it was great and felt spacious. The beds were not comfortable in our opinion but the yard and pool almost make up for it. The price was also great so I for sure would recommend this property to others.
