Living room leaders to large extended pool area with 27 foot pool..spa
POOL HEATING IS AVAILABLE AT ADDITIONAL NIGHTLY RATE. PLEASE ASK FOR DETAILS.
Seating for 8 guests round table..and sun loungers and beds.
THE POOL AREA TOTALLY PRIVATE NOT OVERLOOKED AT ALL GET SUN ALL DAY LONG!!!
The kitchen is very well equipped, and the morning room has a large dining table.
Games room.has a variety of games..foosball..pool table..darts.
The utility room.house washing machine and tumble dryer for guest use
Little Mermaid villa.orlando is based on a private gated community that is manned 24 7 .
A beautifully maintained community..it can only be accessed via electric gates (passes will be issued on arrival)
The lake on the community is vast and accessible via boating ramp..where you can fish the evening away courtesy of the fishing rods left by a fishing enthusiast husband!.
The villa.is set on what can be described as a cake wedge...2000 sq ft villa with villas either side set in a way that they do not intrude on the pool area at all.
You can enjoy the pool day and evening without anyone looking in from anywhere.
Locally, there is an abundance of places to eat..plus supermarkets. Also the new shopping park is home to.many many stores...so.whilst you shop you can also stop for a coffee at Costa etc!
We are not just on the interstate route to the parks.. we are also on a fantastic route to all national parks and areas of interest where no mouse ears nor hulk people dare venture.
The nature side of the area is to behold. It's so nice..guests have been known to take a day out visit circle B take a bbq hamper..do a walk along side the alligators wild boar etc..return to the picnic area fire up the charcoal and enjoy an outdoor bbq feast. So many do not realise exactly what the area in a 35-mile radius ( for example) offers guests staying at our villa . Venture a further 45.miles, and you're by Clearwater Beach tampa.st Pete's cocoa beach cape Canaveral and so many more.
A villa can be 10 minutes from a park but you can be stuck in traffic for 30 minutes..but beauty staying on tower lake is you drive to top of road..turn right onto interstate four and that's it..a large interstate..one road..three exits down..and that's the disney turn off..this takes you to every single.disney park downtown disney springs typhoon lagoon etc. One road..all.parks are off that exit. So stress free.
Some stay away from main parks preferring to do legoland..suitable for 11s and under we are told...also that route you have book tower..circle b etc.

Meeting my new great nephew
The purpose of my visit was to meet my new great nephew. And he is perfect. The home we stayed in was so nice. The kitchen and dining room we open and all areas a were easily accessible. The was adequate utensils and cooking items. Appliances were clean. The ice maker had a frozen “waterfall” in it but we defrosted the waterfall and was able to resolve the ice maker issue. We did not contact management as we knew how to correct the issue. The living room was warm and inviting. The tv worked well and it was easy to use. All four bedrooms were nice. There were two master suites - as we described them - that were great. They each had king sized beds. The mattresses were a little hard for us but everyone has their preference. The other bedrooms were children oriented. They were playful and colorful. Very nice. The bathrooms were nice as well. The shower floors were a little slippery so be careful making the step out. Water pressure was good and temp of the hot water was good. The pool was a nice addition. We enjoyed some pool time and were grateful to have a private pool. The garage was turned into a game room. Pool table, football table and several other games were present. Very cool to have these things. Washer and dryer worked well. I would like to mention to the management company to make sure the trash can gets taken out as requested. We couldn’t take it to the road before we left as we left before the acceptable time to place it out. Great experience and hope to return.

EXCELLENT POOL AND HOT TUB
The house is located on a quiet gated community. We stayed over Christmas and paid extra for pool and hot tub heating. An excellent choice, the hot tub was separately heated and got really hot. Really appreciated in the cool Orlando weather. We ate out mostly but the kitchen seemed to have ample utensils. Usual american style washing machine and dryer. Could have had a starter pack of laundry gel but no great issue. Two spacious master bedrooms and a third shared by the other 2 bedrooms. Wifi worked well and a large TV in the main room. Overall excellent

Vacation to Legoland with Grandkids
We had a great stay at the Villa. House was perfect for our stay. It was safe, clean, spacious and comfortable. All our needs were met. Great communication with hosts. The kids enjoyed the pool and game room. Walmart was nearby and Legoland was about 15 minutes away which grandkids enjoyed. We also found good places to eat nearby and visited Manny's Chophouse one evening. It was awesome! Great food and service. Totally recommend this Villa!

Julie was very helpful throughout both the booking experience and while we were at the house. The backayrd was huge, with no one looking into the pool area. We utilized the pool and spa for hours with our kids. Lots of room for 2 families to spread out. A great stay!

The property was well kept. House was nice and clean when we arrived. We had an issue with the AC, but when we contacted the owner, they were very prompt with getting maintenance over to the property to check it out. Turned out it was just an internet connection problem, so all was well after that.

Nice Vacation Home
Home is in a nice gated community. We wish we would have known that the TV system was a streaming system where a subscription was needed to watch most of the channel's, no local news channels were available. This was an unusual time with the Coronavirus hitting while we were there. This was a big disappointment to not be able to stay current with the news!! We loved the Master suite, the bathroom is awesome. We wished we would have paid for the pool & hot tub to be heated. It was very cold, even with the 80° weather we had. The local traffic noise was very loud, we had trouble sleeping at times. We wish there would have been a gas grill there instead of a charcoal grill. The owner was very good about corresponding with us. We spent alot of time at the house due to the virus hitting Florida. We enjoyed sitting by the pool and soaking up the sunshine and warm weather.

Totally Handicapped Accessible Villa
Previous reviews of this property are not exaggerated. The property is clean and comfortable. No one has addressed the accessible aspect of this property, however. Many properties are listed as handicapped accessible, but upon further investigation, owners will reply that there is "only one small step" to enter the property. This is not handicapped accessible! The Little Mermaid Villa is totally accessible from the front door as well as out to the pool area. Floors are tiled and doorways are plenty large enough for a wheelchair or mobility scooter to pass through easily. I highly recommend this property for anyone travelling with someone with mobility issues.
