Need to book a different villa... help!

**NewtoOrlando** · 26 Jan 20, 02:52 PM

We currently have a 4 bed villa booked at Emerald Island, for 10 nights in August. We’ve had lots of discussions and decided that we don’t want to stay onsite due to family dynamics but the villa we have booked is booked for the extra 5 nights we need it for. I can cancel this and get my deposit back no problem. But. We need a 4/5 bed villa with private pool and with the following:-

Communal pool
Onsite pool bar/restaurant that is open in the evenings

Location not an issue as we have a car but it MUST have the above, which is why we picked emerald island. If it was just the 4 of us we wouldn’t need it but because my parents are coming with us, this is their request!

Can anyone recommend communities where they have good communal facilities? This is the one thing we can’t compromise on 😬

Hit me!

Reunion Resort.

Windsor Hills or Champions Gate. I've used Magical Vacation Homes and Vacation Central Florida in the past and did not have an issue with either company.

Windsor Hills is closer, but they are both very nice and has all the amenities you've mentioned. Champions Gate is newer than Windsor Hills but about 20 minutes farther.

Both are very nice though!

Reunion is lovely, we’ve booked via homeaway a few times without any problems.

We are staying on Solterra this year. We have visited it before and it is lovely. 5 mins drive from Champions Gate and I4. Villas are all fairly new.

Thanks all, we decided to keep the villa we have booked and have booked 5 nights at Lake Buena Vista Resort & Spa. Actually looking forward to spending the whole trip offsite!
