The property was under a major renovation while we were there. I we had a great stay at the Waterfront for a friends weekend. The staff was great . Once the renovations are complete it will be even nicer. Looking forward to going back.

Newly redone. Very clean. Our room was nicely designed in a rather “sparse” way…..but that only contributed to the feeling of cleanliness and less clutter. Stay there when visiting relatives in The Villages. Perfect location.
