spring break trip to Disney
We stayed here on our spring break trip to Disneyworld. Check in was very easy. The home was very spacious, and the beds were very comfortable. The pool area was very nice. The home is located close to all the Disney attractions. We would definitely stay here again!

An absolutely gorgeous villa
We have stayed in other villas in the area and this villa is by far the best. It's so close to Disney that I'm surprised you can't hear the lions roaring at Animal Kingdom. You have a great row of restaurants and stores minutes away. Then you have that wonderful forest behind the villa which gives the villa that extra special touch. We loved sitting out and watching and listening to the wildlife. On arrival, the villa was cleaned to the highest standard. It's spacious and the amenities are all in good order. Mattresses have a lovely memory foam topper for your comfort but if that's not for you they are easily removed and the mattresses underneath are very comfy. On arrival there was a clerical error which the Club House manager sorted out quickly and professionally.The error was so well managed we were not aware it was a problem until after it had been sorted out. We had an issue with a light and the property manager came out within hours and sorted it. He was incredibly kind to my mother who was not feeling her best at that time. We noticed a few kitchen utensils which would have been nice to have, we did mention this to the property owners and they had them shipped to us the next day. We requested a late check out and this was granted with no issues. The cleaning team was very prompt with their arrival. The ladies were also so lovely and we had some laughs with them as we were leaving. I already miss being at this villa. We highly recommend staying here.

Disney Holiday
Emerald Island Resort is a lovely resort in an excellent location to all theme parks and amenities. The villa is very spacious and clean - yes it could do with a little updating with the decor but this was not a problem to us. The hosts are great and communication was fantastic both prior and during our stay. The pool area is great with plenty of seating for everyone and we loved the outside tv !! Plenty of pool inflatables to enjoy. I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Relaxing Environment
My family chose this property because we are 8 adults and having 4 king beds was a priority. The house was perfect with plenty of private space for each couple as well as shared space for being together. We were able to eat at the dining room table and spend time around the pool. The house backs up to a wooded area which makes it extra quiet and peaceful. We had one minor issue with the pool filter and the gracious hosts responded immediately and efficiently. The neighborhood is beautiful and easily accessible for driving to Universal Studios and Disney. We all had a great time. I would recommend this property to everyone, especially “grown kids” like us.

nice place but several problems need to be addressed
It was a great place but it could have been so much better if: dish soap or at least a sample was supplied; dishwasher worked; Keurig worked; thermostat upstairs locked at 77 at midnight, so someone needed to change it at midnight; electrical outlet with no cover on it right next to the kids' bed; no remote for fan in the maser bedroom, so it was locked on high; toilet leaking in upstairs bathroom. lack of supplies in general.(no baggies or storage containers. We couldn't get in when we were told.

Great Property in a great location
We had one small hiccup with the hot tub that was fixed in under 10min, I think that deserves an award all in itself. The property was an a fantastic neighborhood in a great location, very close to all the parks. Communication from management was far superior than most I have used, I will rent the same house on my next visit if it is available

Great home
Great property and responsive hosts! Only thing I took issue with was the pool alarm. I get it’s for kids safety but it’s obnoxious that everytime you open the patio door it goes off, and if your outside the button to turn it off is hit or miss. And it’s LOUD.. otherwise we had a wonderful time and would definitely rent of these hosts again.

Nice home for the price
We have stayed in these types of homes in Orlando several times, compared to others, this home is a bit older and just about ready for some updates. It worked very well for our family, but I'm guessing it's 15-20 years old and looks/feels that way. Everything in the home is "builder grade", not high end, and everything is getting "tired". The pool was perfect (we paid for the heat). Beds are all older but have memory foam on top (not my favorite, but it works). There's no place to hang clothing in the master bedroom. Outdoor patio set is uncomfortable, but the chase loungers are nice. All the TV's are older but work. Communication was fast, friendly and helpful. The community pool was small. The only other real activities offered was a pretty sad mini-golf option. That being said, we had a great trip and made a lot of memories.

Very accommodating
Our group of seven stayed six nights and have no complaints with this property. This is our second time in the house and we noticed updates made even over the prior 12 months (last year we had thirteen people at once for a short overlap!) The pool heater is the best we’ve experienced during our several stays in the area. House is furnished well for comfort and preparing meals, is in a quiet location, and Emerald Island resort is an excellent community. Living areas and pool area are spacious. Owner responded quickly and addressed two minor issues we encountered. The on site property manager is helpful and friendly. We would definitely come back for a third stay.
