We came down for our first TDA experience. I had originally booked sat-sat, but once our schedule came out, I needed to amend our stay and the owners were quick to respond and great to assist! The condo location is conveniently located to parking/stairs which is super helped for unpacking and packing purposes and short a 2-3 minute walk to the pool. Joe and Deborah were incredible with communication and checking in and out was a breeze.
We appreciated having the extra space for the week as opposed to all staying in one hotel room at the host hotel!

We stayed here for our Universal Studios vacation. It was close to that and everything else. The pool was super fun. There was a DJ who ran games every 30 minutes and a bar there, too. I felt like I was on a cruise! The check in process was a breeze because you receive codes and don’t have to check in at a desk. That was really nice. Joe was responsive and easy to communicate with.

The check-in process was easy, the proximity to the pool was great, and we did have one small issue when we arrived that was addressed promptly the next morning. The owner was very responsive and good to work with. I'm sure we'll be back.

We loved having two king beds and a fully equipped condo near Universal. Condo was clean and the owners were super responsive in making sure we got checked in and that our stay was great. There is also a nice clubhouse and pool to take advantage of as well.

Vista Cay is a wonderful location if you want to be in the midst of all that Orlando has to offer! This particular condo is clean, bright and convenient to the pool! It had everything we needed and was very comfortable! The hosts are great and easy to communicate with! We would stay here again in a second!!

No heat, condo was cold and I have a temperature sensitivity issue….ice maker and hair dryer not functioning. If you like staying in an apartment-like community, this place is for you.

Conveniently located between Disney and Universal. Slept 5 adults comfortably. Didn’t have much time for all resort amenities but the pool closest to room was massive. Very nice!!

The hosts made check-in super easy and all information for the property easily accessible. My family (including kids ages 6 and 4) had a great stay. The unit is super close to parking which was great for packing/unpacking. We were able to access clubhouse/pool which was great. We stayed for 7 days and had a great experience. Thanks!

We loved our stay here. We had 3 separate rooms, which was perfect for our little weekend getaway amongst 3 friend groups. There's food around the resort and transportation was not difficult to attain either! Also the property was extremely clean. Highly recommend.

This property was absolutely amazing. I was looking for 2 bed suites at hotels and could not find any in the location I wanted, close to the Central Florida Fairgrounds. I found this Vrbo, which was decently priced, had great amenities and was decently close to the Fairgrounds. Everything was clean, the owners communication was great and the property was exactly what we needed. Great amount of space and easy check out instructions. Thank you for letting us stay and celebrate our events at your property!

Location was great. Gated community, with a Walgreens and Publix (grocery store) within walking distance. 15min drive to Universal and Disney. On-site pool, hot tub, was huge hit w family.
Unit itself was nicely furnished and as pictured. It had all the necessary amenities that we needed for cooking, cleaning and laundry.
The hosts were very responsive.
Overall we enjoyed our stay here, with one caveat: whomever they used to clean the property did not/does not clean the floors. After 5min of bare feet in the unit, our feet were absolutely filthy. We ended up having to vacuum ourselves but the floors really needed a good mop.
Aside from the above issue, we would recommend staying at this property.

We enjoyed having a nice, clean place to stay while in town for the convention. We had everything we needed for our stay and 3 min drive to Shingle Creek Convention Center. Close to everything including the interstate. Check in-/out was very simple. Eatery's and entertainment within a couple blocks. Convention overflow parking right down the road-4min drive. Would stay again

We had a lovely time at the property. It was spacious and clean. It was as described in the listing, and the pictures are accurate. The hosts were responsive. I would recommend that they place additional towel hooks in the bathrooms, as well as hooks for pajamas. There was paper towel, soap and laundry detergent in the unit, so we did not have to worry about any of that. You will not regret this rental.
