The villa borders a conservation area with grass and woods to the rear. It is fully air-conditioned and there are ceiling fans in every room. It sleeps up to 8 people and it has been furnished and equipped to achieve luxury standard set by our management company.
We have worked hard to create quality and comfort at a reasonable price. Our furniture package is top of the range.
With 4 bedrooms including 2 master suites one of which stretches the entire length of the villa, 2 living rooms (3 if you count the TV room in the main master suite) and a separate dining room, there is ample opportunity to seek out that little bit of peace and quiet after a long day at the parks.

The course is an 18 hole championship standard with lots of sand and unusually for Florida very little water. It is a public course so no membership is required. There are around a dozen courses within 20 minutes drive of the villa.
One of our nearest neighbours is Champions Gate which has two 18 hole courses and is famous for being the home of the David Leadbetter Golf Academy . If you are willing to drive for an hour or more then your choice of courses increases to around 50.

We have just returned home having had a wonderful holiday and celebrating my birthday. The villa is fantastic and was the perfect base for 6 adults and 2 children. Nothing was too much trouble for Derek and Karen before and during our stay. Looking forward to the next visit.
