What Villa Location?

If you are ploughing through all the villas on
this site and do not know where the best place to be is, this may help
you.
Obviously if your whole reason for visiting Florida is to go
to the theme parks then you may think it is easy – just look for the
ones close to Disney. However, more people than ever now want to go to
Universals Islands of Adventure to see the Harry Potter attraction.
Universal is not near Disney World. Also, Sea World is not close to either
of them.
Once you have decided what your priority is, then you can
choose your location. If you want to see them all, then you will want to
be central to them all. Ask the owner of the villa you prefer to tell you
the distances from all the attractions you wish to visit then you should
be able to decide what area is closest to them all. Many people think they
are all near each other. We also get enquiries from people who want to be
near Disney World and the coast. I am afraid that is not possible as
Disney in right in the centre of Florida equidistant to both the West and
East coasts with the East coast slightly closer. At the moment there are
not many (if any) villas near Universal Studios however they do have
condominiums or apartments.
If you are looking for a mainly
relaxing holiday but wish to visit one park, then best to book a gulf
coast villa and spend a night in a motel to visit a park. The closest
beach to Orlando is Cocoa Beach which is approximately 60 miles away on
the east coast and Tampa bay is approximately 85 miles away on the west
coast.
Some enquiries specify Gated Community. A normal gated
community will just be an area of new buildings that have a gate but no
security guards so are not really any better then a normal community.
However I think these enquirers mean that they want a community that has a
communal pool, tennis courts and childrens play area.
Most villas
on this site are within a 10 to 20 minute drive to Disney World. Also one
thing to remember is that once you are into the Disney World area, you may
have a further 10 minute drive to get to the park you wish to visit.
Disney World is an area of 42 square miles and all their attractions are
located in this area, so if you want Animal Kingdom it will be another 10
minutes to get to the Magic Kingdom.
This brings me to another
question people ask; “Can I use public transport to get to Disney? â€
Well yes you can, but only to the entrance to the whole Disney area. You
can not get transport from any of the entrances to the particular park you
want. So you will need to drive or take a taxi.
