I remember looking for our very first villa, I had notebooks, a spreadsheet, map, it took weeks!

Thanks for this... it looks lovely! Sadly not available for our dates... I am exactly at that stage, there are so many lovely villas I can't seem to narrow it down!

I saw your post about the stunning villa. Book that one

Easiest thing I've found now is to work out what your priority is, and if it's location, that's very easy to narrow down. Put a request in the villa section with all the things that you would like, I'm sure that would help a little

Good luck!

Hi Jo - all sounds amazing.
We're here now and we're not doing any parks other than the Disney water parks and its been brilliant!
Have an amazing holiday

Yes we are !
We arrived on July 23rd and we leave on August 29th.
It's myself , my two friends and the children with the husbands flying over this Saturday to join us.
We've had a very relaxed time with some shopping and meals out.
Loved the new look of Disney Springs.
Went to Millers Ale House last night at Champions Gate and we were impressed - excellent value for money.

If I could get that one for the price then I would... I'm trying to dig up so more information on it and so far I haven't heard anything back which probably isn't a good sign but you never know!

I'm open on location as long as it's not so far away it might as well be in Tampa! Although I am debating if something a little closer might work better, but you don't seem to get much for your money close to the parks. So difficult finding the right balance!

Sounds just perfect!

We've tried Millers once and weren't impressed, which I know is unusual as it's a Dibb favourite. That was the one at Rolling Oaks. Perhaps we'll give the one at Champions Gate a go - we're staying a bit further down Hwy 27 this time, so I think it might be nearer? x

I can recommend High Grove - it's just at the junction of the 192 & Hwy 27. We had a lovely 5 bed villa and it was very reasonably priced. In the past we've stayed at Windsor Hills which is just beautiful, my favourite resort, right on Disney's doorstep, but you do pay a premium to stay there and now we've drifted away from the parks, location isn't so important

What a great trip you have ahead! I have just followed you on IG so I can get a sneaky peek of your photos whilst you are out there

Wow! I would never think about going to Orlando and not doing the park so i'm super intrigued to see what you get up to and how you fill the time!
Your trip is so soon, how exciting! And Sapphire Falls looks incredible

Also, I added you on instagram :3
