Description
Fully licensed and approved by the State of Florida, it provides the safe, well designed and upmarket accommodation that you and your family deserve.
And, whilst our exclusive community is just four short miles from Walt Disney World®, it is far enough away to escape the hustle and bustle of the parks and affords a restful and tranquil setting, guaranteed to get you into that laid back Florida groove.
So whether you wish to relax and unwind in our decadent hot tub, try your hand at a little hi-tech gamesmanship on our Playstation or just sink into our sumptuous furnishings and surf the net utilising our high speed wi-fi connection, you’ll discover that all your holiday requirements have been taken care of with style and flair.
To discover all of the great features that make Pourquoi Pas? so popular, we invite you to take a leisurely read of the details below…
Private Pool
Without a doubt, one of the most popular features of our gorgeous Florida home are the inviting waters of our fully screened private pool. Surrounded by lush tropical planting and swaying palm trees, you will feel like you have been transported into a jungle paradise each time you set foot onto the pool deck.
Our solar heating system with energy efficient electric backup ensures that you never turn as blue as the water when you enter the pool, and our self-indulgent 22 jet hot tub is always available to massage those aching muscles after a long day in search of that famous mouse !
Naturally, we’ve provided comfy sun loungers for those wishing to top up their tan, although beneath the shaded lanai you’ll also discover weatherproof furniture and a cooling outdoor fan for those who prefer a little less sunshine. Both the pool and the hot tub also feature underwater colour change lighting, ensuring that you can extend your fun and relaxation right into those sultry Florida evenings, and there’s even a poolside shower to provide a cooling respite from the wrap around heat.
Access to the pool and deck areas is via a sliding patio door from either the master bedroom, dining room or family room.
Family Room
At the heart of the house, our spacious and inviting Family Room has been stylishly equipped with your leisure and convenience in mind. Tiled throughout to maintain a comfortable indoor temperature, the triple patio doors present the opportunity to effectively open up the entire room to encompass the glorious pool area and lush tropical backdrop outside.
Elegantly furnished with two huge comfy chairs and sofa, light wood tables, decorative lamps and complimenting decorative accents, we guarantee that many happy hours will be spent enjoying the widescreen 55 inch cable TV, DVD & VCR, stereo system, iPod dock, movie library, family games and books that have been provided for your pleasure.
Kids & Baby Equipment
We understand that bringing your own toys, games and baby equipment on vacation not only takes up valuable space, but quite frankly is also a real pain. However, here at Pourquoi Pas?, we’ve got you covered, and are delighted to provide a toy box full of child friendly goodies, family games, PS with games, pool toys, 3 strollers (buggies), high chair, crib (cot), bed rails, play pen, electric bottle warmer and food grinder, to ensure that our younger guests are fully equipped to hit the ground running.
Games Room
Our newly created Games Room is AIR CONDITIONED for your comfort - many villas have beautiful games rooms but are too hot to fully enjoy. We have an 8 x 4 Slate Bed Pool Table, Air Hockey Table, Foosball Table and Electronic Dart Board. For the spectators we have included a Bar Table and Chairs. Although the games room is situated in the double garage we still have off road parking for 2 cars.
Fine Dining
Adjoining the Family Room and providing further access to the pool deck, our formal dining area featuring a stylish table and chairs in soft cream tones, is the perfect setting for any family meal.

Thank you for letting us stay in your stunning villa. We have all had a wonderful time and would love to stay longer. The beds are so comfortable and it was hard to leave them. The Games room is great fun and the pool table fantastic. Your villa is definitely one of the best we have stayed in and is in a great position for Disney. We would love to return. The Cockerell’s 18/8/12 Cambs UK (Kevin is returning next Oct)

Well, we have certainly had an amazing 2 weeks here in good old Florida. This has been our 4th visit and this house has got to be one of our favourites. The view of the lake is amazing not to mention the friendly wildlife. This really has been the perfect backdrop to our family holiday. Especially since the kids finally kicked Dad’s butt at pool!! Family B W Yorkshire US 5/9/12
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
This has been our 5th return to the villa in a decade and another brilliant holiday. The first time we have seen Florida over the Holiday season and it didn’t disappoint. The decorations definitely helped it feel like Christmas, since the weather certainly didn’t – beautiful sunshine! Thank you again for the villa, time to save to return again. The Rebello’s – London UK 14/12/13 (Bill is returning this summer)

Just like to say we had a fantastic time at the house it was really comfortable and had everything we needed. Sunset Lakes is a great location we felt really safe there and it was so peaceful. This was our 4th visit and this was the best house we have stayed in.
The pool is beautiful, it was incredibly warm. We had some unsettled weather the first weekend as Isaac went past but once the storm had passed normal service was resumed. Thanks very much for letting us rent your house, we will save our pennies and hopefully we can afford another trip to Orlando at some point. Thanks Ian, Karen, Micheal and Emma

"Hi Ely,
The Villa was beautiful, everything we could have wished for and we had a fantastic time, we treated it as if it was our own.
Thanks once again. Angie x
p.s The chap from the management company was very nice and helpful."
.............................
"We all had a fantastic time, brilliant weather and the villa was lovely. Our two boys enjoyed most evenings swimming in the pool and we enjoyed the peace and quite during the evenings also. We will be going back to Florida in a couple of years so we will keep your details on file for the next time. Thanks once again for the use of your property during our stay"
................................
"Just a short note to tell you what a wonderful time we had in Florida. the villa was lovely and comfortable, ( a real home from home). the whole family were impressed and so convenient for getting around. We did get lost trying to find it the first time, which was not surprising considering the road mapping system out there, but once we got the hang of it we were fine. I hope we left it in good condition for you, if not please let me know. I would like to think we would be able to stay again sometime"
....................................
"Just a short note to say that we had a great holiday. Your villa is lovely. The stroller and cot were well used (thanks).The only slight problem we had was with the weather. I think we had more rain and than sun!!!!!!! I shall be recommending your villa whenever possible"
.................................
"I meant to email you as soon as we got back from Florida to tell you how wonderful your home was. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and James and Lewis loved the pool....so did we all. The weather was great and we were sorry to leave. Thank you very much"
..............................
"We (the 5 women) have returned from our stay at your villa in Florida, and it was absolutely marvellous! We had a fantastic time and the property is just gorgeous. We couldnt have made a better choice. Hope to stay there again in the future!"
...................................
"Just a quick note to let you know how much we enjoyed your villa. As you recall this was our first experience booking a villa via internet and we were a little sceptical and not real sure what to expect. We were pleasantly surprised and pleased. We had a wonderful time and the villa was great! We really liked the fact that it was just a walk across the yard to the community pool and that the community was gated. The layout of the villa was perfect for two families to share. We have all agreed to do this again. Thanks again for allowing us the use of your villa, it is beautiful"
....................................
"thoroughly impressed with the villa - they couldn't get over how big it was and said it was perfect. They really enjoyed the pool too - the girls were swimming as often as they could! They took some film of the villa and I have to say I was thoroughly impressed by it!Fiona and Stuart found Norma to be very friendly and helpful, and they were delighted to discover that she was Scottish!!
I will have absolutely no hesitation in recommending your villa to anyone I know planning a trip to Florida, it really couldn't be faulted..Here's to the villa being permanently booked up for the coming years (with a fortnight kept aside for the Brett family of course!!) All the best"
..................................
"I rented the home at Sunset Lakes 2 years ago. We had a great time and we want to rent the home again this year. Thank you for your time and I cant wait to hear from you!"
.................................
"Just a quick note to let you know that we are here and it is everything you said and more! We have totally settled in and gone shopping to stock up so we are here to stay! (We wish!) My mom and dad are actually looking at homes"
.................................
"Thank you! Everything was great! We really enjoyed the house and the pool. My mom was so happy! We gave my mom and my dad the master bedroom and they did not want to leave. The kids loved the tub with the cool faucet! We hope to be back soon!"
..................................
"We had a wonderful time in Florida staying in your Beautiful Home! We loved everything from the art work to the pool. It was a great vacation! We cant wait to go back! THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING. We are already trying to plan our next trip. Have a Blessed Holiday - Norma was great. Say thanks to her for us also"
......................................
"This rental house was beautiful, it had everything you needed. The rooms were big and airy. The pool was great. If I needed something, I picked up the phone and spoke to someone directly. It was a pleasure to stay there, and would recommend it to anyone. We sure hope to come back soon!"
......................................
"Thanks again! We really enjoyed our vacation. I think you should check the clocks - they all ran too fast!!!!! Just kidding - Thanks again!"
..................................
"!!! WOW!!! What a wonderful home! Every now & then you hear vacation horror stories but not this vacation...WE ALL LOVED IT! Had a great time, weather co-operated & your home could not have been better. We took care of it as if it was our own. We are trying to schedule next years vacation to Orlando & if our group number will fit we will try to book your home again! We really liked the advantage of having 2 pools - yours & the outdoor pool across the street. Thank you again for everything!!! Will contact you or the home site again!"
...................................
"Thank you for our stay at your wonderful villa in Kissimmee. It really has been crazy since we came back, and only now am I able to say a huge thank you for the help and support you gave us before our trip. The villa was wonderful and the pictures on the site really don’t do it justice. I took a couple of nice exterior shots if you want one.It was everything you said on your site…and some more. We all had the most wonderful time. Everything was wonderful, and I think we may have to come back and see the places we missed the first time, so I will keep your details on file. Thanks you again for everything".
