Can anyone advise on a villa with private pool and a shuttle service to parks
We are going in November, we want a villa with private pool and we are hiring a car... But we are taking my 20 year old daughter, who will want to be in the parks most days, I on the other hand do not; and really don't want to have to be a taxi service for her and her friend. So Here is the problem, will I be able to find a villa with my own pool in an area where she can get a shuttle into the parks. We have been before and stayed in villas but never had a shuttle service. Does anyone know if we will find such a place and where ? thanks for reading

I'm not sure there is.
Windsor Hills may have one, not sure if they do any more. Uber could be the way to go Ideas of costs for a selection of communities from uber website when I looked last month: Emerald Island - Magic Kingdom is $17-22 High Grove - Magic Kingdom is $17-22 Legacy Park - Magic Kingdom is $19-25 Hampton Lakes - Magic Kingdom is $20-26 Laurel Estates - Magic Kingdom is $22-29 |

What you could do is get them to walk/ drop them to a hotel near villa community doing shuttles. Obviously this isn't ideal and would probably only work if the shuttle was payable. If it's free from hotel then the hotel might 1) not appreciate people using their shuttle 2) require guests to register to book a place, in which case they wouldn't be able to use it either.

It's not something I've everheard of.
You're really best having a car if you are staying in a villa although these days I have heard of people using Uber but I'd think that would waste a lot of time waiting around Sandra |

With uber in Orlando I didn't wait longer than 10 minutes from the time I booked on the app to my driver arriving, and usually it was about 5.

We have a holiday home (which we don’t rent out) on Encore community from where free shuttles run to Disney & Universal.

If you rent a villa at the western end of the 192/Davenport/Four Corners/Clermont, there is quick and easy access to Animal Kingdom via Sherberth Road. I would offer to drop them off in the morning and from there they can use the Disney buses to get to any park. Do the same in reverse in the evening, or they can Uber home from AK if you had other evening plans.

There was a shuttle available when we stayed at Windsor Palms with a minimum of 2people. It was a service that went round the communities around Formosa area. You had to book it in advance. I was planning a day in MK whilst Dh and boys went to KSC but because of the minimum person requirement couldn’t use it so Dh dropped me off at the drop off point at MK and picked me up later.
