Anybody got any personal recommendations for a villa in Orlando, for the parks etc. Looking at 3 adults 3 children, so ideally 4 bed. Probably starting 3rd Aug '19 for 3 weeks.
Private pool, with decent amount of outside space. Within 20-30 mins of all the parks. 10-20 mins to shops, supermarkets etc.
Trawling websites at moment. Can do it as a package, but you don't get to pick your villa. It's allocated. It's also awkward, as flights don't come out until Aug this year.
Thanks in advance. MY07 Freelander2 SE Santorini Black - Gone

I can highly recommend getting a villa on the 'Emerald Island' resort. Secure gated area with nice spacious villas, all with pools. An easy drive to all the parks etc.
Me and family members have stayed on there 3 times now and wouldn't look anywhere else

+1 for Sheepy's suggestion. Windsor Hills is just off the 192 so very close to a lot of restaurants, and literally 5-10 mins from the Magic Kingdom.  CGA

Thanks All, More research to do.
We are looking at 3 weeks in Aug next year. Currently getting varying quotes between £2-3k. MY07 Freelander2 SE Santorini Black - Gone

I've got a three-bed townhouse with its own pool in Windsor Hills for 15nights. Cost me £1600
Flights cost me a lot more, but that's the joy of BA!!

Nope. Try adding another £5k plus probably. MY07 Freelander2 SE Santorini Black - Gone

Worth waiting on booking flights until the sales period before Christmas. Flight-only was going to be £4750 for the four of us. During the "black-whatever" week of sales, I booked a package deal with BA for flights and car-hire that was £4500! And because it was then seen as a "package holiday" I only needed to pony up a 10% deposit - for flights, I'd have had to pay 100% up front.

Andy (the owner of the place we're staying) has sorted a new website:
http://disney-luxury-villas.com
I'll be able to tell you in mid-August how good it was!!

We went last year and used Thomas Cook, we had a villa for just over 2 weeks, I found the prices very competitive.
