Previous Guests!!
This is a challenging review to write. But I travel a lot and honestly look to draft genuine reviews for future guests as I know I rely on reviews when I am booking places. So here goes: Check in and pre- arrival contact all good. Location was good. The area is slightly out of the way but on a smaller, older development that didn’t have villas totally surrounding it. Well connected through the Ronald Reagan Parkway and a short drive to shops etc. The Villa was clean and comfortably furnished. Bathroom and kitchen both dated and interior standard villa fare in terms of deco but with plenty of bed linen, towels and cutlery etc. The outside space was more impressive with a large private pool and jacuzzi. Pity the pool area is in shade by 6ish. A new TV installed in the covered porch allowed us to watch TV out there at nights which was nice. Using a Grill/BBQ is an important part of our vacation. I checked before booking to make sure they provided a Gas BBQ. So imagine my disappointment on day 1 to find the BBQ so filthy, and I mean totally disgusting, we couldn’t use it.The hosts simply blamed previous guests for not cleaning it! They said they would clean it on their next visit to the Villa, not much use to us. They later told us they had a charcoal grill in the garage. But it was too small and who wants the hassle of lighting and disposing of charcoals etc on vacation. They offered to rent a BBQ and charge me. But I’d already paid for a BBQ so why should I pay again. Then on day 5 the hosts again used the excuse of blaming past guests when we couldn’t find the iron to press clothes. They told us they had to throw it out as past guests burnt plastic on it. But why did they not replace it at once? To be fair, they sent a new one via Amazon nxt morning, but only after I sent a complaint to VRBO. To be frank, I don’t care about past guests. If they do something wrong, the hosts need to sort it with them. Not punish new guests or charge them further. The cleaning and preparation of the property between guests wasn’t good enough and the hosts seemed more interested in making excuses than resolving problems. This is why I rate the Villa a two star. I couldn’t honestly recommend it to others nor would I stay again. But maybe we were unlucky. The hosts will undoubtedly want to reply so you can judge for yourself if they accept their mistakes here or are still being defensive and making excuses for what we experienced. We still had a fab time !✅

Fabulous Villa, Friendly owners
This villa was even better than the photos show! We have stayed in 3 Orlando area villas and this was the best by far. Extremely clean, spacious and well equipped, and a really peaceful and private pool area. It included extra touches that were really nice such as pool inflatables etc for the kids to use, barbecue, and a box of household and grocery items left by previous guests that could be used, eg shampoo and aluminium foil. The bedrooms were all very spacious with comfortable beds and quality linens, and a cupboard full of spare towels and linens. The locations was great, only around 20 mins to Disney, a bit longer to Universal, but all easily accessible. A large Publix supermarket is about 5 mins away, James and Mindy were very professional in the booking process and friendly when we spoke to them. Would definitely recommend this villa to anyone.

Fantastic Stay
Our family had a fantastic stay. Mindy and James were lovely hosts, easy to communicate, giving us great suggestions on what to do in Florida, and even checking in with us on our first day. We spent many hours enjoying the pool and the beautiful deck, there’s even a TV on the covered lanai. There were many thoughtful touches through out the home, lots of movies, games, well stocked kitchen (we like to cook), comfortable beds and couch, parking in the garage and lots of room for our family. This was fabulous family vacation. We would stay again in a heartbeat. Thanks Mindy and James : )

About the host

Host profile image
Both my husband and I grew up in families where spending time in Florida was a common family vacation. As teachers, we have the opportunity to get away for extended periods of time over the summer as well as for shorter periods at the holidays. Being from Michigan, we love to get out of the cold and escape to the Florida sun in the winter. In the summer we love the heat, so Florida is a great choice! We frequently travel to the Orlando area because it has so much to offer. We love that we can have lazy days by the pool if we choose, just taking in a book and the sun. We also love that there are things to satisfy every interest just minutes away. Some of our favorite things to do while in the area are visiting the theme parks, shopping, playing golf and enjoying the great restaurants. We also like to try new things and have once in a lifetime experiences! Some of our favorites have been hot air ballooning, kayaking trips, and space shuttle launches! As we frequently travel with family and friends, having a vacation home allows everyone to be together, yet have their own space and privacy when they need it.

Why they chose this property

We began renting homes in Florida for our vacations in the late 90s. After several years we decided we should look into getting a place of our own and began causally looking in 2006. When the real estate market crashed in 2008, we were ready to take advantage of the situation and actively began searching for our dream home in 2009. With the help of our realtor, we looked at over 250 homes from December 2009 through December 2010.

Pastoral Palms caught my eye on one of my real estate shopping trips in March of 2009. I knew the moment I saw it, that it was the ONE! It was everything we wanted! The neighborhood was small and quiet. The home was is great shape. It had a large pool deck with a spa and covered lanai! The floor plan was great-- exactly what we had been looking for. When I made my next 'shopping' trip, I told my husband 'if it is still on the market--we are putting in an offer'. It was then I found the home was off the market--temporarily! After seeing the home, my husband agreed--we had to have it! In July we put in the offer and waited only to find out they accepted another. Devastated, we went back to searching for a property. In October, the home came back on the market! A second chance! In November we were again told another offer had been accepted. In December we made another 'shopping' trip, ready to put down an offer on something--after all it had been a year of looking! After our first day of viewing properties, we had a couple we could settle for but nothing special. On December 23 our Realtor called and said 'Merry Christmas, the other offer fell through and yours has been accepted!' This was the best Christmas present EVER! In the end, what sold us on this home was the quiet location, the floor plan, the premium lot, and my favorite--the view from the pool deck!
