Sunset Lakes 5 Bed 3 ½ Bath Lakeside, 4 Miles to Disney

Dear Dawn & Alan We would like to say a huge thank you to you both. We had an amazing holiday at your villa. There were amazing surprises that no other villa that we have stayed in had got. Very nice touches. The air pump, the rain covers, children's dress up clothes, not to mention the games room. Our grandson enjoyed the fishing rods. Mike my husband took him to the harbour to do fishing. The short cut to Animal kingdom was very helpful and that lead us to finding a short cut to international drive. The only thing we could not find was instructions for the tv. We even got to see the residents 2 alligators in the lake. I could go on about how great it is, but you already know that. Your manager was very helpful too. Very nice man.

"Just back from a lovely holiday in Florida staying in Sunrise Dream - a lovely spacious villa a few mins from Disney and variety of shops and restaurants, even during hurricane 'Milton' we had all that was required to keep the kids (and adults) entertained and kept safe from the elements. The perfect base for a family trip to Disney!" Thanks again Dawn we did have a great holiday despite the hurricane, which I have to add, was soon forgotten.

Good evening Dawn Never emailed a villa owner on the evening if arrival but just felt like I must, just wanted to say how beautiful your villa really is, the view is absolutely gorgeous and the house itself is just stunning! Absolutely amazing the two master bedrooms is just perfect. The goodies that were left was a lovely touch too! Had a slight issue with a little baby dead frog greeting us in the pool but hopefully he had a nice little life until that point lol. Thanks again for all your communication and your help in everything, so excited to get our holiday starting now, off to the supermarket soon, one of my favourite things to do ??. Had a fab weekend! Please don't feel like you need to reply to this, just wanted to let you know how much we all LOVE the place! Kind regards Suzie & family!

We loved our stay at Villa Sunrise Dreams. It was our first time as a family of four staying in a villa in Florida, having previously stayed in hotels. We loved the freedom and space it gave us. The private pool was lovely, with beautiful views over the lake - we even spotted a gator in the lake towards the end of the holiday. The house is well equipped and the washer and dryer was very welcome to help assist reduce the amount of washing I needed to bring home with us! The location is perfect for Disney (loved the short cut to the Disney estate) and lots of local restaurants and shops. Communication from Dawn was great from our first booking enquiry through to any other queries I had before and during our stay. Thoroughly recommend and would love to stay at either villa again.

Thank you for the great review, it was a pleasure to have you as our guests

Hi Dawn, Just wanted to say: Thank you so much for providing us with an absolutely wonderful place to stay for our 3 week holiday. The villa is perfect for a large family. So spacious, comfortable beds and sofas and includes all the amenities we needed including the games room which was thoroughly enjoyed by us all. We were so impressed with the cleanliness of everything and the regular maintenance of the pool and hot tub. The starter pack and nibbles was very appreciated on arrival as saved us going out again that night. Thank you again, we will certainly be in touch to book another visit!!!! Kind regards Melinda and Family xx

A huge thank you for our fab stay your villa is by far the best we have stayed in and we will without doubt be back again soon. What a fabulous place to stay! The villa has a stunning outlook onto the lake and is so well equipped with everything you could need and more! The location is great with plenty of facilities close by and a really short drive to Disney. Excellent communication from Dawn & Alan for booking, directions and a welcome home follow up too. We have stayed in many different villas in Orlando over the years but Sunrise Dream is by far the best. We would highly recommend a stay here to everyone and will most definitely be returning very soon soon! Thank you Dawn and Alan for everything! Mike, Joanna & family June 2024.

Thank you for the review - we love to hear our guests have had a great experience and we look forward to welcoming you back again soon

Our stay @ Sunset Dream was so pleasant we could have stayed longer ... Much longer ! You have such a beautiful Kissimmee home and in such a stunning and handy location. The villa was exceptionally clean and well organised with everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. We were spoilt with choices of bedrooms .. bathrooms and TVs ! And your villa certainly has the best lake view in SunSet ! And next time need to find some smaller children to bring with us to make use of the princess costumes ! What a cute touch ! Our teenage boys loved the games room and all the facilities within! The pool and spa were well maintained and serviced during our stay and the selection of pool toys and towels certainly were welcome and saved the luggage space ! We did have to contact the management team after AC failed after a hot day but a quick email and visit .. an engineer was out and fixed it without any hassle at all ... Very responsive and helpful even when we set the house alarm off ! Your arrival information and information folder at the villa were very useful and the shortcut around Disney was very useful ! The local area has had huge investment and an exciting future seems to be ahead. So conveniently located for all facilities along the 192 and out retail visits to Target and Walmart(s) !!! We did not find any appliance missing and valued the laundry and dishwasher facilities and the welcome pack especially the milk and snacks were a good send when we arrived and felt a little tired to go and shop ! We have visited Kissimmee on many occasions and your villa rates at the top of our stays .. we would most certainly stay again and recommend it to anyone who may enquire ! One of the closest villas to Disney ... In a very quiet area with such a lovely view . And thank you Dawn for making the booking process so simple and easy ... You were super helpful and responsive from the outset. It gave us confidence in our booking and took any accomodation stress away.

My family and I had the pleasure of staying at one of the Sunset lake Villas for two weeks in early April. The villa itself was perfect. The location was superb and very close to all of the Disney parks. We arrived late and were grateful for the welcome pack which enabled us to leave a visit to ‘Publix’ until the morning. The Hot tub and pool were fabulous. We have stayed in Orlando many times over the years and the setting of sunset villa was the best. In all the years of visiting. We had never visited ‘Celebration’ (only a short drive), it is well worth a visit and I recomend the Spanish restaurant highly. Thank you Dawn for the super customer service from your team. We will be back! Susan and Gavin Miklaucich.

Just returned from Florida and had a fabulous time at Dawn Murray’s Villa . The location is central and perfectly situated very near to Disney and Universal Studios, and nearby supermarkets. The villa itself, a perfect combination of comfort and a home from home with lovely warm pool and inviting hot tub to relax in . We had a fabulous time and remember watching the beautiful sunsets over the lake. Thank you so much. The Jobling family

Our family absolutely loved our stay at the villa, that much that we extended our stay whilst here, we did not want to leave. Dawn was available to speak to and very helpful with any questions that we had. The management company were easy to get hold of when there was an issue with the pool heating and sorted it within a couple of hours. Watching the sunset over the lake was our favourite time of day after a busy day in the theme parks. We would love to return to the villa again in the future, it was so close to Disney and all local amenities.

We were pleased to be able to extend your stay and thank you for being such lovely guests.

We had a fabulous holiday in your beautiful villa. You have thought of absolutely everything, down to the milk and snacks available on arrival which was so welcome, we loved our stay there, it was so comfortable and relaxing. Your villa was a huge part of our enjoyment on a very special family holiday. Villa Sunrise Dream is a fabulous villa. It is immaculate, so very well equipped (you have thought of everything you could possibly need) and it was lovely coming back after a busy day at the parks to relax in the hot tub and swimming pool. The location was perfect for us. Communication was excellent. During our stay we were very impressed by the quick response from the Management Team on a couple of small issues we had that were dealt with right away. We would highly recommend this villa.

Hi Dawn Having returned from our 3 week holiday, I can say just how delighted we all were with the villa. You have thought of everything and your support to us throughout our stay is testimony to how villa rental should be done. The hot tub and swimming pool become used every day to recover from the heat and all the walking. The estate is so peaceful yet so close to everything I am not sure anything else could be wanted. Just a massive thanks and I am sure to let some friends know who are planning on a visit

From when we first enquired through to booking, through to arriving and staying at the villa, Dawn made the whole process extremely easy and seamless. She explained everything throughly, offered helpful advice and answered any questions I had really quickly. The villa was immaculate, every little thing you could possibly need is thought of. The gated community where it is situated is lovely and really quiet, the view from the Villa on to the lake is amazing, especially the sunsets. We are a family of 5 and the highlight for my 3 boys was definitely the pool which they went in every morning before we went to the parks. Having a lovely well equipped kitchen to make our meals in when we wanted made a real difference too and meant we were able to save some dollars by not having to eat out every evening. A massive range of Shops/bars/restaurants are right on the doorstep, literally a 5 minute drive, and from leaving the villa to being parked inside the magic kingdom car park took us 15 mins tops, less most days. I would not hesitate to book with Dawn again, we had a fantastic holiday and we absolutely loved our stay at Sunrise Dream.

We absolutely loved the holiday and your fabulous villa! Kay (partner) was very upset to have to leave on Saturday morning and was asking me to extend the stay! The villa was perfect for us 6, everything we wished for and more. The view over the lake especially at Sunset was just amazing. Kids loved like really loved the pool and hot tub. Pool was great size as normally photos can be deceiving but yours was great. We all enjoyed the games room, air hockey was better than you find in some amusements here in UK. We will certainly recommend your villa to friends & work colleagues if they are visiting Orlando. We can't thank you enough and hopefully we get to visit again as location was perfect.

Good Morning I wanted to send our thanks. We had the best stay at your beautiful Villa Sunrise Dream on the wonderful Sunset Lakes. It has surpassed our previous villa stays. You have ensured everything is covered down to pool towels, scissors and we even saw hair straighteners in the cupboard!! It was such a lovely bit of luxury to return to after the hectic park days. The pool was amazing, we enjoyed lots of sunsets looking over the lake from it! The beds were incredible!!! We can tell you put your heart and soul into this Villa and it truly shows. We are already missing it! The next time we return to Florida this Villa will be the first I check availability for. Thank you.

Hi Dawn Just wanted to let you know that our stay at Villa Sunrise Dream was perfect. The location, pool, games room and space made our villa time one of the most enjoyable parts of our holiday. The new sofa and cable TV are brilliant and we had many movie nights, which was great fun.

All I can say was the villa was fantastic. Everything was as described and having the swimming pool at our back door made our youngest's holiday. She loved being able to dip in as soon as we returned home from days out. We felt safe and secure in the gated community. We have been telling everyone what a fabulous time we had and that your villa was outstanding and the location just could not have been better. Thank you for everything and we will certainly be in touch when we do another villa holiday to Florida.

You are very welcome, and we hope to welcome you back again soon

We all loved the house. I would say of the 12 plus villas we have rented it was the best! Extremely well equipped - it had everything we needed and more. We like the position of Sunset Lakes and have stayed there before. Pool heating was great and ensured that our grandchild could enjoy the pool for as long as he wanted. My family has just returned from a fabulous two week stay at Villa Sunrise Dream. This property was everything we hoped for and more. Very spacious - the 2 master suites are great if two families are staying together. Bathrooms are all very well appointed and immaculate. The kitchen was lovely and incredibly well supplied with everything you could need. A very professionally presented villa which I would thoroughly recommend. Communication with the friendly owners was excellent.” Thanks again for the very good communication in the run up to our renting your villa. We had a great holiday and the family all loved the villa. I just need to recover from 4 weeks away now!

Thank you for the great review. We try to ensure our guests have the best holiday, and this makes it worthwhile!

We had a wonderful time in your home thank you. We appreciated the ease of the coded lock to enter. We loved the space - plenty of room for our teenagers to spread out and huge en-suite bathrooms. But the best thing was the pool overlooking the beautiful lake - so tranquil having breakfast watching the turtles pop up occasionally. The pool was a lovely temperature. Missing it already! Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home.

Thanks for the welcome, the villa was amazing, it’s by far the best one we have stayed in on all our trips to Florida, it had everything we needed and more. We had a great time and the villa was the perfect retreat after a busy day in the parks & they were super busy this time I think so many people decided to go to Florida after Covid-19 & the spring break of course. Thanks for letting us stay.
