We had the 2 Bedroom Villa which had plenty of room for 4
adults and 2 children. Each villa has a full kitchen with a
full size fridge, stovetop and oven, microwave, coffee maker,
living room with dining area and table/chairs. Color cable TV in the living room area, built in am/fm cassette player which
can be set to play in every room, or in sections of the villa.
We had 1 BR with a queen sized bed, one with a double bed, A
sleeper sofa, and a loft area above the queen sized Br with
room for 2 more people. |

They have a poolside cafe which was open from 7am-4pm
daily. They have an excellent deal where for $2.99 you choose
3 of the following items for breakfast: Eggs, pancakes,
sausage, bacon, potatoes, white toast, wheat toast, French toast. It was great getting breakfast for 6 people for under
$20. |

Pool Description/Comments: |
1 Kiddie Pool with a mushroom shaped waterfall, which our
children loved. 1 "adult" pool which is heated and open 24hrs.
We met a lot of nice folks from all over the US and abroad at
the pool area. The mosquitoes were somewhat bad. More so than
the summers here in NJ, so we didn't sit around the pool much
when we weren't in the water. But in the pool the mosquitoes didn't
bother us much. |
Other Comments: |
Our location was excellent. We were right near the kiddie pool and right at the
entrance to the path to the regular pool
and cafe, we could also see the playground from our deck,
which was nice when the kids wanted to play. A great place, we
always stay there, and will again next time we go. It is very
quiet and private. A definite break from the Disney hotels
with kids running up and down the halls, and people checking
in at all hours of the night. It's like being at home, you have
your own villa, when you go inside, you don't hear a thing, and
even when you sit out on your deck, it is a MUCH more laid
back, relaxing experience than staying on site, in my opinion.
