Sunset Lakes, Lake Views 5 Bed, 4 Bath

We returned to Villa Sunset Dream for the second time last week after a fabulous holiday there two years before. The villa is perfect for couples (as we were) or larger families, given the number of bedrooms and space in the downstairs area. It is well-equipped with all that you would need for a holiday. Since the first visit Dawn has installed a new hot tub which was perfect. The pool was also heated to the perfect temperature for our November dips. The weather was perfect which allowed us to sit out quite a bit and enjoy the sunsets whilst having a drink (or two!). It also has really good internet and TVs so we could spend much of Thanksgiving Day in the villa rather than fight our way around packed restaurants and shops without becoming bored. The villa is behind a gated community which is very safe and quiet, given that the villas are a mix or rental properties and privately owned. This was a major consideration for us as we really enjoyed the atmosphere there. It is perfectly placed for the parks, shopping malls and main roads as well as the various attractions/towns and is only 1.5 hours way from the coast(s) which means that you can easily cram a lot into each day. The management company were excellent too as when we had a question about the pool, we received an immediate answer which allowed us to continue to enjoy the break without having to wait. We would not hesitate to recommend the villa to anyone and are making plans to return in November next year.

It was wonderful to have you as our guests again and we are pleased you enjoyed the upgrades and look forward to welcoming. you back again.

Thank you for allowing us to rent your villa, we absolutely loved every minute! It is in a great location, beautiful and modern, so well equipt and had everything we could possibly need. We were all kicking ourselves once we had left as realised that we hadnt watched the sunset as had been in the parks or out and about! Villa sunset dream is amazing, it is in a good accessible location, easy to find and within a 10 minute drive (or less) to the supermarkets ( target and Walmart) and very close to the Disney parks. The villa is spacious, super clean and decor is modern and equipped with everything you could possibly need! and I mean everything! The pool over looking the lake is beautiful , private and relaxing and has sun from mid morning until evening- it is definitely a sun trap! I can not recommend this beautiful villa enough, we thoroughly enjoyed our time staying at this lovely home and will definitely be back!! The Aspinall Family Julyt 2024

What a fav review, we loved having you as our guests and look forward to welcoming you back

Morning Dawn. Our time at your beautiful villa is nearly at an end. We have so enjoyed your hospitality and the welcome pack was a really nice touch and much appreciated after a long flight. Your villa is one of the nicest we have ever stayed in and has covered our every need. One of the pool floats burst while we were there so we have replaced that along with the pool net. We also used the house phone for a quick call to phone a local golf course as our mobiles weren’t connecting. As I intimated we would love to book again for next September for 4 adults and 2 children Thanks once again for everything and look forward to hearing from you re dates available very soon Regards Laura x

We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay, and now you have rebooked look forward to welcoming you back to Sunset Dream next year!

We all had an excellent time staying at Villa Sunset Dream. Your Villa is absolutely beautiful and everything about it was perfect for the whole family. After busy days at the parks it was wonderful to go back to the villa and have use of the pool (with the wonderful views of the lake) and also the games room. At the end of the holiday we spent 2 days relaxing in the villa to make the most of the sunshine! We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the villa for a holiday for anyone wishing to visit Orlando. Many thanks for everything and our very best wishes. Sue and family - April 2024

We have just enjoyed the holiday of a lifetime at Villa Sunset Dream The Villa has everything we could possibly need for 3 generations to be comfortable and have lots of fun together. After a busy time at the parks to come home to a fabulous pool with a stunning view is just perfect. The Disney Parks are very close too. We have had the most wonderful time in your beautiful home - thank you. Thank you again it’s been the holiday of a lifetime

Thank you Catherine - makes all the hard work worth while. It was a pleasure to have you as our guests

The booking process was straight forward and the villa owners were very helpful answering all the questions we had. The villa was better than the pictures portrayed.Our initial walk through was accompanied with the sound track of sighs, oohs and aahs as we discovered the calm feel of the villa, the luxury of the decor and furniture, the generosity and practicallity of the welcome gift. We were delighted with there being 2 master suites. Both beautifully finished and very comfortable. Plenty of towels for indoor use and again plenty for use outside around the pool. The Kitchen, was lifted to the next level by the amount of glasses, cups plates and cutlery as well as serving bowls and preparation equipment. The all important pool and deck area is so comfortable and relaxing. Beds, waterproof chairs and table, table and chairs for outside dinning all situated around a lovely pool. We were in the water every day comfortably heated in the orlando winter weather. And not to forget the hottub. The gamesroom equipped with pool table, air hockey and fussball table., nice to come home and relax in. But for us the daily giver was the situation of the villa. A ring of homes built around the lake. Calming views from the pool deck is amazing, relaxing, private and atmospheric. And finally the situation of the villa is one the best positions we have ever stayed in. So close to Disney and plenty of restaurants and shops. AMAZING. The management company were so helpful and responsive to our couple of needs. We would fully recommend this villa for your holiday. But, not so much that it is so full that we do not get to return for our next holiday.

We strive to ensure our villas exceed expectations and. It was a pleasure to have you as our guests

What a wonderful villa! The location is ideal, the owners were fabulous (we visited during the holidays and they were sooo helpful)! We even met the pool cleaning team who were lovely too. Our family were a mix of first time and seasoned visitors - for both, the villa lived up to our lofty expectations and I can't thank Dawn enough.

We have just arrived home from an amazing holiday staying at sunset dream villa. The villa was exactly what we wanted . A perfect location, very clean, and was decorated to a high standard throughout. Our granddaughters loved the pool and the games room. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. Dawn was extremely informative, helpful and easy to communicate with. I wouldn’t hesitate about recommending this villa And if we’re coming back we would all certainly love to stay here again. Thank you Dawn for helping to make our family holiday special, Joyce Gow ‘

Thank you for the review - we love to hear our guests have enjoyed the villa

Dawn was extremely helpful from the point of booking. Upon arrival, we had a lovely welcome pack which was really appreciated after a long flight. The villa was clean and everything looked amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay - we particularly liked how close the villa was to the Disney parks, which was really convenient. We’d definitely look to stay at Villa Sunset Dream again! :) Thanks again for everything Dawn :) hopefully will book again in the future at some point!

Dear Dawn, I just wanted to say a huge thank you, and to let you know we have had a fantastic holiday. Your villa is absolutely beautiful and we have enjoyed every single minute we have spent in it. Everything is spotlessly clean; the beds and furnishings are extremely comfortable and everything we could possibly need is provided. We have had great fun at the parks, but it has been so lovely, also, to relax, have fun and enjoy your AMAZING swimming pool, not only during the day, but in the evening, too, with the colour changing lights! We have even seen turtles by the lake, which was so exciting! The Disney bedroom and bathroom were very special too, and the girls loved it all. Thank you, also, for the milk, etc. It was a very welcome sight after such a long journey, and much appreciated. We will be very sad to leave tomorrow, but hopefully, one day, we will return. ?? Many thanks for everything. Our very best wishes, Ann, Russell, Angel and Crystal.

What a great review - so pleased you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back

We have just returned from a two week stay in Sunset Dream and were absolutely delighted. It was a lovely villa; immaculate and very well resourced even down to the hair straighteners! Absolutely family friendly with things like highchairs potty, baby bath etc. The kid’s highlights were the Disney bedroom (especially the dress up outfits) and the pool! Very quiet, gated community in an excellent location for Disney parks, shopping and restaurants (the welcome pack at the villa included a very handy shortcut to the Disney parks). Thank you for making our stay so easy and enjoyable. Will definitely be recommending to friends and family!

Magical Villa close to Disney and all that’s offered in and around Kissimmee. The Villa was above our expectations, it easily caters for a large family who want some downtime from the parks. We were an all-adult party, but would have no issues recommending this to families with young ones, who would enjoy the themed bedrooms. The villa was a true home away from home and a place of sanctuary. The villa is close to lots of places to eat and drink along the 192 with supermarkets also close by. We were there in June- July and the pool was a welcoming inviting space to get away from the heat and humify. Although we paid for the hot tub it was used only once as the heat made it a little uncomfortable. However, this is our first time to visit at this time of year as we normally travel in March /April and I can see the attraction of the hot tub at that time. Animal Kingdom is about 5 minutes away by car, and even when visiting the other Disney parks or Disney Springs, by following the signs back to Animal Kingdom you missed all the traffic on the I4 & 192, so it made it easy to nip back to the villa following an early morning visit to a park, you could then fuel up and hit another Disney Park later in the evening saving on the parking charges. Now, lets turn to Dawn, what can I say. Dawn makes it very easy which takes away all the stress of booking a villa through a person you have never met. Just a few emails and it is like you have known Dawn for years. The booking process is simple. We were there for a special birthday as my daughter was turning 21 while in Florida, so we wanted to go somewhere special, Dawn went beyond what I expected providing recommendations and details of the distance from the villa and cost. We truly did not want to come home and when we are ready to visit Florida again, I now know where my first email will be sent. Thank you for helping to make a magical memory.

Wow - what an amazing review to wake up to! We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay, and it has been a pleasure getting to know you

Hope you are well. I cannot thank you enough for letting us stay in your beautiful home in Orlando. Nothing quite prepared me for what greeted us when we opened the door. An absolutely stunning home awaited us. Loved the Mickey rug, it was gorgeous. Perfect in every way. A well equipped kitchen with a fab welcome pack which was very much appreciated. The luggage scales were very handy for coming home. ?? Living area was very comfortable for 8 and the recliners very welcome after a day at the parks. The bedrooms were lush and the largest beds I’ve ever seen. A very comfortable sleep had by us all for the duration of our stay. The villa was perfect for a two family stay as we were not on top of each other and each had their own floor to gain personal space. A short drive from WDW and wallmart a stones throw away as were many eating places. I did not want to check out and would not hesitate to stay again. A stunning home in a stunning community.

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay

Thank you again for the wonderful experience we had as a family in Orlando! Your home is perfect and well-maintained. We've stayed at several rentals that looked great from the outside but were not maintained or well organized. We had no complaints and would not change anything. You did a wonderful job at communicating with us and helping organize our stay! Beautiful view, very safe neighborhood that we did a lot of walking, and very peaceful!! Take care and appreciate your organized, friendly manner!

We have just returned from a superb 2 week stay at Villa Sunset Dream. "Location, location, location..." as the saying goes, this villa is perfectly located for visiting Disney. So close it meant it was easy to pop back to the villa in the afternoon for a swim and a relax before heading back out in the evenings. The villa itself is amazing; clean, spacious and extremely well equipped. The highlight has to be the stunning pool area and views over the lake. The sunset views across the lake and peaceful surroundings are beautiful and much appreciated after busy days in the parks - not all villas can offer this which makes this one very special. The pool itself is as large as it looks in the pictures and we all had so much fun in it. Already checking the calendar for 2024 availability, can't wait to visit again! Thankyou Dawn, it was a truly wonderful stay.

Thank you for your review - we look forward to welcoming you back again

We just returned from a 3 week trip to Orlando for two weeks 6 of us stayed at Dawn’s fantastic villa Sunset Dream, we all had our own space topped off with a fantastic pool hot tub and balcony. Overlooking a beautiful lake with the wildlife especially the cranes drying their wings in the sun I could have watched all day! On arrival we had milk soda and cereal to set us up for the first day. The management team were very impressive and responsive when needed. Beds were super comfy but be warned at 5’2 I needed to take the step from the kitchen to get into the upstairs master the dressing gowns were also a nice touch. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and dishes to prepare a meal and the laundry was super easy to use. All in all I can’t recommend Dawn’s villa enough for location, space and comfort.

Thank you for choosing Villa Sunset Dream, we are pleased you enjoyed your stay

We have returned from our second stay at Sunset Dream. The villa was as lovely and spacious as we remembered. The location is fab for Disney in particular. Loads of restaurants and supermarkets just a short drive away. The villa facilities were great too. During our visit, hurricane Ian hit and we lost power for a couple of nights which was no fault of the villa owners. The whole estate and much of the surrounding area was out and all the parks etc were closed. However, Dawn demonstrated concern for us and as soon as phone/email contact was possible, she was able to just us up to date with when power was expected to be reinstated. Pre-visit Dawn was very accommodating with our dates, actually delaying her own visit so we could extend our trip by a couple of nights. She responds quickly to queries and has a wealth of knowledge which for first timers would be so helpful. Villa great, location great, owners great! Would return for a third visit.

I can’t say enough about it, it was absolutely perfect thankYou, you have thought of absolutely everything and we could not have wanted more, we don’t have small children but thought your dressing up costumes etc was such a lovely touch. The bedrooms were wonderful, so spacious and the beds comfy, and I loved the walk in dressing rooms. We were a group made up of two families and we all agreed it was so spacious for 8 people. The sunset lakes community were also lovely and friendly and the villa is situated so close to everything it was absolutely perfect. We will definitely be rebooking in the future.

We had such an amazing holiday and the villa was perfect for us! Absolutely stunning, peaceful, well kept and secure location, very close to Disney with plenty of shops/restaurants nearby which added to our great stay! The villa was comfortable and well equipped with everything we could possibly need, plenty of towels, pool towels, even robes which were a blessing after such long days at the parks! The welcome pack that greeted us was greatly appreciated after such a long journey! We especially enjoyed the fantastic pool and pool area along with the beautiful views of the lake watching the sunrise/sunsets. This villa had it all and we will definitely hope to stay here again on our next visit to Orlando. Thank you for your excellent communication throughout, wish we could of stayed longer!

You are very welcome and so pleased we were able to play a part in your holiday

Beautiful villa and location, the best spot on the lake and in a perfect location for Disney. Lots of comfortable seating around the pool and plenty of towels etc to make everybody comfortable, but the highlight had to be the hottub! My family and I (5 adults and 3 kids) truly enjoyed our stay at Villa Sunset Dream and would not hesitate to return."
