We were really surprised at how nice the villa actually is., the pictures really doesn’t capture just how amazing it is. We looked through the glass pane on the door when we arrived, and we thought there was water all over the floor! When we got inside, it was simply just extremely clean and polished floor tiles! So clean and reflective, you could fix your hair looking at them! Unbelievably spacious and warm, comforting feel to the place. All the rooms are beautifully fashioned with extremely attractive with modern furnishings. We were very sad to leave, but we booked next year before we even left for the airport! The locals are very friendly, we had numerous conversations with passers by. It was actually really nice to see some wildlife pass between the villas Jake Perrie

After a long flight from the UK and a drive from Tampa, this villa was a sight for sore eyes! It was clean and very spacious and had everything that we needed. The pool was perfect and so warm! We were swimming at 5.30am the next day, not a breath of wind & the golf course green keepers were out doing their thing, squirrels running about and you could hear a pin drop - it's just such a lovely location. This serenity also remains throughout the day and into the evening, just perfect. The villa seemed larger in real life than in in the pictures & had more than enough space for our family. There were plenty of towels, both pool towels and bathroom towels. Plenty of cutlery and crockery. Also a very useful information pack with details of everything you may need including local doctors etc. We had an issue with the WiFi on the first night which was rectified the next day by the maintenance company, which I have to say were second to none. Joan herself is a pleasure to deal with. From day 1, she was friendly and helpful, providing me with all the information I needed and answering all my questions (there were a lot!). Nothing was too much trouble and I felt she genuinely wanted us to have a great holiday and enjoy the villa, which we absolutely did. I will definitely consider this villa the next time we stay in Florida and would 100% recommend to others.

Everything about this villa was first class from dealing with the owners from point of booking, directions to villa, Graham at the management company, cleanliness of the villa, and the great pool. All the family had a wonderful time here especially the kids in the pool after a day at the parks. If looking for a great place to stay whilst in Orlando, look no further than this villa. We as a family will definitely be returning in the future. I would just like to thank Joan for letting us stay at her villa and make so many magical memories.

We spent 2 weeks in this amazing villa. It was spacious and very well decorated. We had all the essentials needed for our trip! We have stayed in Highlands Reserve many times and this was one of the best houses to date. We had the sun all day and great views of the golf course. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone!

Regarding our recent holiday to the villa. It was a beautiful place. Very comfortable and it had all the essentials necessary for our stay. It was situated in a lovely area, very peaceful and quiet and within easy access to all the parks. The swimming pool was a particular favourite with the children and a lovely place to relax after a long day at the parks. The view over the golf course was lovely. We would certainly recommend this to our friends and hopefully one day come back ourselves. Thank you for making it a holiday to remember.

Joan we had a lovely stay in your beautiful Villa this Easter! Nice and spacious and very clean .. Pool faces onto the golf course so it's not overlooked which is great. Ideally located near the Interstate which is great if you fancy a drive to Clearwater and Busch Gardens. Well worth a 2nd and 3rd visit !

“We have just returned from a two week stay in this gorgeous villa. There was only 3 of us so we had lots of room to spare and to wander around in. The villa is perfectly situated for what we wanted - a straight forward 30 minute (ish!) drive to most of the parks and we really loved being so close to our new favourite supermarket Publix! The villa is very well kitted out if you need to cook, a much fancier home away from home! The decor is gorgeous; calming and uplifting. All the bedrooms are incredibly comfy but I wanted to bring the master bed home with us, mattress of dreams ?? The pool area is lovely and we spent quite a lot of time out there taking in the tranquil settings. Such a gorgeous place to be based - short walk to the tennis courts, small playground and outdoor pool too. The whole booking/payment process was so easy and communication was great. We would love to plan a return visit at some point! Thanks so much”.

We spent 3 weeks here to escape our dark winter. The villa is very well maintained and stocked with everything you need in a home. The location on Highland Reserve is lovely, overlooking the first tee of the course, and in the sunshine all day. There was a problem with the air-conditioning which was reported to the manager and an engineer duly appeared later that day to fix it. We've been coming to this area for some years now and all in all, we enjoyed a lovely holiday in a very comfortable and attractive villa - we would be very happy to return and thanks to the owner and manager.

My wife and I have recently returned home after a very relaxing four week winter holiday in Joan's spacious villa on Highlands Reserve. Entry to the villa was by way of an electronic door lock saving the worry about carrying keys or for larger groups giving the opportunity to come and go separately as they please. The villa has a modern alarm system that can be set (armed) for when you are sleeping overnight. The downstairs floors are all professionally tiled with quality tiles and the bedroom floors are all carpeted. Although there are five bedrooms we only made use of the master bedroom with an enormous bed that possibly had the most comfortable mattress I have ever slept on. The large master shower had a good water supply unlike some rentals. The kitchen appliances are all modern and every room has a modern flatscreen tv. The good sized pool (recently re-surfaced) faces south west and gets plenty of sunshine. We had it heated at a reasonable cost and were able to use it each day. Lovely sunsets each night from the pool deck on comfortable loungers. Also a variety of birds visit the trees at the rear and we were fortunate to see a gopher turtle wander through the garden on two occasions. They are apparently an endangered species in Florida. The owner, Joan, was easy to contact and will respond quickly to any messages. Local management company are also available. A couple of points would have meant a five star rating from me.The owner is aware of the stiff operation of the sliding patio door and arranging repair. Although there are two floor safes in the villa neither is available for use by clients. The large garage is empty having no games equipment. Those points aside we would still return to this villa as it is ideally situated to walk (stroll as we're elderly) to Berry Town Centre in about 20 minutes for an evening meal instead of having to drive. We have stayed a number of times in Highlands Reserve and always felt comfortable walking at night time.

The villa was spacious, very clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen was well equipped. There were plenty of pool and bath towels provided. The heated pool was excellent with plenty of chairs and lounges provided. The view overlooking the golf course on the 10th hole included a beautiful sunset. Highlands Reserve is a very nice safe community. Communications with Joan have been excellent. She was a pleasure to deal with. We hope to reserve this villa again.

Had a fabulous 2 week stay in a great villa which was in a great location close to all convenient stores and restaurants just off highway 27. Joan was a pleasure to deal with both pre and post holiday and always responded in a quick timely fashion. The villa had all the amenities required to ensure we had a pleasant stay and the pool and patio areas had unrestricted views over the adjourning golf course. I would definitely recommend this villa to anyone looking for a great villa in a great location.

What can we say? An absolutely immaculately clean and comfortable villa in a very quiet and peaceful setting. Choosing a villa is so difficult but we were in no way disappointed with any aspect of our recent stay at Joan’s villa, in fact the photos don’t do it justice. Joan made the whole process so easy from start to finish and nothing was too much trouble. There’s an abundance of local amenities very nearby and the area itself is lovely to stroll around either at dawn or at sunset.

The Villa is stunning beautifully furnished and has everything you need. It is in a great location just off HWY 27 and within easy access of all the theme parks.

If we are lucky enough to go back to Florida we will definitely return stay here again. Thank you for trusting us with your beautiful home.

We had a brilliant time at Joan's villa (villatorentorlando), the place is clean when we checked in and well equipped kitchen. The owner Joan is great in communication throughout and very quickly in resolving our request for additional towels. Great location on a golf resort and easy access to some local shops for groceries and food. Overall a very good value for money. The only comment we have is that the dining room could do with extra lighting.

We have just returned from renting Joan’s lovely modern villa on Highlands Reserve. Liaising with Joan made the booking process quick and faultless, any emails sent had a response the same day. The villa has one of the most peaceful pool areas we have stayed in Davenport. Watching the morning golfers whilst having a coffee! What makes this villa stand apart from others is the ability to walk to get breakfast, ice cream, publix , or an evening meal! The villa itself was homely, very clean, modern and two sitting rooms with TV’s, a welcome change from the usual reading sitting room that never gets used by a big family. This villa provided everything we needed and more! We had a wonderful stay! If only it was free so we could have returned in July/August… we will not hesitate to book again with Joan when there is availability Thanks again for a wonderful family holiday and allowing us to stay in your villa

We will definitely be back!

We have rented over 20 villas in the area over the years but this villa has been the best we have rented. The pool was amazing. It is a larger pool with beautiful night time lighting for those evening dips and a great view of the golf course. The 3 double bedrooms were perfect for us and our two grown kids and there were 2 twin rooms as well. The master bed was so comfortable and we slept really well and no complaints at all from the kids either. The kitchen is well equipped with an ice machine in the freezer. Everything was just right and we felt very comfortable and spoilt. Thank you for hosting us.

We stay on Highlands reserve almost every year so know the area well, close to shops and a couple of restaurants which are walkable (you don’t find that often in Orlando). The villa was tidy and homely and the pool was the best part as it was well heated and larger than other villas in the resort.

Thank you to Joan and Family for a truly wonderful villa. Everything was immaculately clean and inviting. The pool was a delight and the view was very tranquil. Everything we needed was at the villa, truly a home from home. We would like to thank Jen from the management company for all her help during our stay. We would return again to this villa and highly recommend it to anyone wishing to have a totally relaxing home from home villa. Visited 09/03/2020 to 19/03/2020. The Downing Family.

We just returned from our Orlando trip and would like to thank Joan for a great stay. We were a family of 4 and found the Villa very homely, comfortable and relaxing. The pool was really nice and big and the Pool heat worked great especially for evening dips. The location of the Villa is great!! It’s so close to the theme parks and we were really close to the grocery stores. The Highland reserves estate is also very homely and quiet. We would definitely stay at this Villa again!!

Would strongly recommend staying at this Villa. It is so nice and with a lovely Pool too. All rooms lovely and spacious. Very clean. Perfect place for the family and friends.

A perfect Villa and got everything you need there.

First of all would like to thank Joan for being so understanding after we had to re arrange our holiday. Joan is also very prompt at answering any questions. Provided all necessary information before we left. Have stayed in Orlando many times and this villa is just like its photographs so you wont be disappointed. Villa is lovely inside and very modern and spacious and has a very large pool deck overlooking the golf course. Shopping and a few restaurants very close and 5 minute drive to Champions Gate where you will find lots of restaurants. Look forward to returning.

We stayed in this beautiful villa for 16 nights in May/June 2019. From the moment we booked, the owner Joan made the process very easy answering all of our questions promptly. Having stayed on Highlands Reserve several times previously we already knew where we were going from the airport but the instructions from the owner were easy to follow and access to to the house very easy. The house is absolutely beautiful, clean, well equipped, spacious and modern with an amazing pool/decking area, just what was needed after a long hot day in the theme parks. Less than a 2 minute drive to Berry Town Centre where you can find a Publix supermarket, restaurants, several takeaways, a bar and many more facilities. About a 20 minute drive to the Disney theme parks. We would definitely recommend this villa, perfect location and we cannot wait to return.

Thank you Joan for having us in your villa, we stayed with you last year but have only just remembered to fill out a review! A brilliant villa, the pool was great and the view from the pool was amazing. All bedrooms and bathrooms were great. Reasonable distance from the Disney parks - about 25ish mins. Nice and close to the nearest supermarket. Was super easy to get the codes for the house and nothing ever felt a hindrance when I kept asking questions! The only thing(s) that our group would have benefited from would have been a late check-out on the departure day as our flight wasn't until the evening and having a couple of things on arrival such as some bread, cereal, milk and butter. BUT overall still a 5/5 experience that made an AWESOME holiday with the optional extras would make it even more fantastic! THANK YOU!

Rented this villa April 2019 for 3 weeks. The communication with Joan (the owner) before during and after the holiday was first class with immediate responses. Minor issues dealt with promptly. The villa was clean and well equipped. Very secure villa and a well maintained complex. Inside, the villa had plenty of space which enabled excellent group living but also room enough to have your own space when required. The outside area has the sun virtually all day with good quality seating. Golf course in good condition and not too expensive...for abroad anyway. You do need a car if you want to venture out although there is a small complex within 15 minutes walk with a few bars and restaurants although we found these local restaurants of a poor quality. We usually went onto the 192 highway or to Champions Gate where there are some lovely bars and restaurants but someone always had to drive of course. Overall would highly recommend this villa.

Just home from a 2 week stay in this beautiful villa in Highlands Reserve. The house is gorgeous, immaculately clean, attractive modern deco, spacious and with every type of kitchen appliance/utensil you need and more. The pool is gorgeous and a lovely temperature, we asked for it to be heated. It has a lovely view out onto the golf course and can watch a beautiful sunset from it. The Highlands Reserve area is lovely and peaceful and friendly neighbourhood. Very close to publix supermarket and a few restaurants including Applebee's and IHOP. Only a 20 minute drive to Disney's Animal Kingdom. Joan the owner was excellent with communication and any information I needed and made me feel at ease booking my first villa rental. Would highly recommend this villa to anyone wanting a relaxing homely place to stay and with close distance to all the attractions of Orlando.

We have just returned from a 2 week stay at highlands reserve, Florida. From the moment I sent the enquirer form Joan couldn’t have been more helpful. This was the first time we had booked everything separately having previously opting for package holidays, but Joan made the entire process easy answering all of our questions and accommodating our need for baby gates on the stairs. The villa was easy to find and looked gorgeous on arrival- the tables were laid beautifully and the pool lights lit (it was late evening) and we knew we were going to have an amazing time. The villa was equipped with everything we needed and the Sunset views over the golf course- with a glass of wine and a steak on the bbq was the perfect way to end the day after we had enjoyed the magic of Disney. I can not recommend the villa enough and we hope to return soon!

From the outset communication with Joan was first rate; the whole process from beginning to completion was smooth. Highlands Reserve is a well kept, peaceful community, and with good access to all the main attractions. The villa had just been recently decorated when we arrived, and additionally there was new furniture in the second family room. The villa itself was very clean, well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. After a long day you can return to the villa and watch the sunset over the golf course from the pool. We would recommend this villa and we would book again.

We have just returned from this beautiful villa. Before booking I spoke to the owner Joan. She was helpful and informative about the villa and the location. Joan always responded quickly when we emailed her and was very helpful when my daughter had an accident and I needed help. The villa itself is beautiful. It is spotlessly clean and had everything that we needed for our stay. The kitchen was well equipped and the master bedroom was amazing and the bed was so comfortable. The pool is lovely and is a good size. It was great to sit out by the pool in the morning watching the golfers and the wildlife but it still felt private. Highlands Reserve is great with a supermarket, liquor store and take away restaurants. Also within a 15 minute walk we visited Appleby's for dinner. It's nice to be able to walk as you can take advantage of the cocktails! I would recommend this villa and we also hope to return next year.

We stayed here for 2 weeks at Easter. From the beginning we were very confident with our booking as Joan, the home owner, has excellent communication regarding bookings. On arrival, everything was as expected. Very clean. Normally, the first thing i would do is wash knives, forks and glasses etc before we use them but i didnt even think about doing it here as everything was so immaculately clean! We had a fabulous stay, management company were easy to contact. They called one day and asked if air con was ok, as it happened there was an error but they knew before we did! The only thing we mentioned to Joan afterwards was a clothes airer would be useful for airing washing during your stay. Joan has since asked the management company to purchase an airer. So efficient. Lovely lady. Lovely home. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend!

We visited at the beginning of February. When booking the photos were impressive but they really don’t do this house justice. It is amazing! The view of the golf course is perfect to wake up to. The decor is very exquisite and each room has its own mark. The master bedroom is awesome! The bed is extremely comfy. You have a great en suite bathroom and toilet. There is plenty of wardrobe space. All the bedrooms are individually done and great for large family stays. The house was spotless and is very well maintained. The pool area is great and a lovely area to sit and chill after a day exploring. The information folder, in the property, has all the information you will need during your stay. Nothing is left out. The location is within easy driving distance to all the attractions. A must is a visit to Clearwater Beach and Crabbys restaurant.....beats Skegness any day!! There are some lovely restaurants near. There are 2 supermarkets wishing a 5min drive and also a fuel station. If you want a luxury base, for your stay, this is certainly the place to stay. We loved it! So much that we are going to be booking for next year.

This villa is one of the most comfortable we have stayed in. It has four good sized rooms & a master bedroom that has all the comforts you require. The pool is a perfect size for our family of seven plus several guests that visited. The Highlands Reserve location is situated to easily access 192 or I-4 interstate roads, which makes visiting the parks simple. I would like to thank Joan (the owner) for all her help and for helping us to enjoy a memorable vacation.
