Kissimmee vacation rentals are quite diverse. These range from some of the established mature neighborhoods such as Lindfields to the newer full service resort communities such as Paradise Palms. Since the inception of Disney vacation rentals 25+ years ago, there is lots of commercial development along the 192 Kissimmee business corridor. Popular resort communities in Kissimmee include Emerald Island, Paradise Palms, Windsor Hills and Windsor Palms.
May of the newer Disney vacation rentals outside the gates of Walt Disney World are located in Davenport. Davenport runs along the southwestern corner of WDW. The heart of the Davenport corridor for vacation rentals runs adjacent to Highway 27. Davenport rentals can often be less of a drive to the parks because of lesser traffic congestion. Popular resorts in Davenport include Hampton Lakes, Regal Palms, Solana Resort and Tuscan Hills.
Whether you stay in Kissimmee or Davenport, the key is that you’ll be close to the Disney parks including Animal Kingdom®, Magic Kingdom® and Epcot®.
Disney Vacation Rental Features and Amenities
In addition to the many communities and subdivisions near Disney, one of the other aspects that “sells” vacation rentals over hotels is the amenities and features of the individual home.
Amenities associated with each home may include private pools, movie theatres, game rooms and barbecue grilles. Fully equipped kitchens, large living and dining areas and clothes washers/dryers are conveniently located in each rental home. Be sure to verify your required home amenities and features before booking your reservation.
Disney Vacation Rental Sizes and Bedrooms
In addition to vacation villa amenities, there is an appropriate size rental based upon your needs. The economics of vacation rentals start at the 2-3 bedroom size level and extend up to 6 bedroom vacation rentals and larger. For instance, for a 2 bedroom rental, one can enjoy all the conveniences of home and with all the space and privacy one needs for a great vacation. Why rent 2 hotel rooms when you can enjoy the comfort and privacy of a private residence?
The larger vacation rentals may also be the perfect fit for sports teams playing at ESPN or even perhaps a family reunion in Orlando. The key is that the larger Disney vacation rentals allow everybody to be together under one roof and share the vacation experience as a family or group. Be sure to read the fine print and understand the privacy aspects associated with your in home bedrooms and bathrooms.
Resort Lifestyle Options
One of the additional huge bonuses associated with Disney vacation rentals is that community privileges may come with the rental of a vacation villa. This aspect of renting a condo or villa near Disney sets the vacation experience apart from staying in a traditional hotel.
For instance, many communities have large clubhouses that serve as both a welcome center and a place for social and fun activities. These lifestyle choices may include a clubhouse pool, fitness center, tennis courts, volleyball, concierge and food and beverage. This is especially helpful if you have a lot of family or group members with diverse interests. All of these benefits come with Disney vacation rentals if you do a little browsing and if you know where to look.
