We certainly enjoyed your house, it was perfect for our extended clan and was ideally located near to Disney World, which is what we wanted. We were fortunate to have two little troupers aged 3 and 5 who walked everywhere and spent long days (7 days and 1 evening) at Disney World, without a complaint and never asking for a thing.. … ….We were more than pleased with how well the house worked out for us and will certainly recommend it to anyone visiting Orlando. Our only regret is that the two weeks passed so quickly and we were on the go every day, without taking any time out to really relax. ….We had good weather the whole time, warm but not hot, and even had the good fortune to see the space shuttle take off. Your front yard was an ideal viewing spot for this event.…All in all, our vacation was everything we hoped it would be and your house was exactly as depicted on your web site.…we appreciate the very professional attitude you have demonstrated in marketing your house. Your follow-ups have been excellent and are a true indication of the care and interest you show towards people like ourselves who rent your house.…Thank you for everything you provided that helped make our vacation a wonderful, relaxing experience.… I was very impressed. I’ve never rented a vacation home that was left cleaner.…Thank you for your e-mail we had a wonderful time in Florida and enjoyed being in your villa . We appreciated the free phone calls as I have elderly parents and it was easy to keep in touch. Your villa was lovely and it was nice to come home in the evening for a swim and relax by the pool after a hard day at the parks. …Just want to say thank you for letting us stay in your house, it was as ever amazing. I will be booking again for next year.So remember the price quoted is for our house (not per person!) with all this for you to enjoy. Please ask us on the enquiry form if you have any questions that haven’t been answered….We hope we have the pleasure of welcoming you to Sunshine Palms soon.
