Windsor Hills private rentals

Hi

Was wondering if anyone has booked through this website before and if it is relatively safe to do so?

I know the website says villas are vetted by resort management but I’m assuming it wouldn’t give me as much protection as a site like VRBO?

Also most the villas listed aren’t on VRBO and there doesn’t seem to be anywhere showing reviews of the villas?

Yes, absolutely safe. Everyone who advertises has to be a verified owner - the HoA runs this site.

We have just sold our townhouse on Windsor Hills and used to get good rentals from that site.

There is a tab where owners can add their reviews so take a look at the ones who have those in place. Some owners are now avoiding VRBO and Airbnb as they get great return rentals from people who look specifically for Windsor Hills.

Yes this is correct. I am a current owner at Windsor Hills and also advertise on WHPR. Actually every verified homeowner is given a free listing on the site. However if the homeowner falls behind with their HOA (Home Owners Association) fees then their listing is removed. So that will give you a good idea of where people are at.

Not sure about the site but we stayed three times at WH and loved the location and the area in general. Great for I192 and I4 as well

Aw, thank you - It was just time for us to come closer to home and I have recommend the new owner to advertise on The Dibb so you never know!

I’ve just searched for you Perksp…. Was looking for the townhouse as we wanted to book again, but it wasn’t coming up on the search. Back to the drawing board
