2 bedroom condo DIRECTLY OPPOSITE pool and clubhouse in Oakwater Resort.

Welcome to Minions retreat, an extremely popular 2 bedroom condo DIRECTLY OPPOSITE the pool and clubhouse in the highly sought after Oakwater Resort. We have a great selection of privately owned condos and townhouses available in the Disney area, each designed with your vacation enjoyment in mind, and Minions Retreat is a great example of that.

Why Minions Retreat

Directly opposite the resort clubhouse, pool and amenities
Less than 2 miles from Walt Disney World
All resort amenities are included in the price
Features a King size master suite
Full size washer and dryer in unit
Free high speed Wi-Fi and upgraded cable package
Gated resort style community
Shops and restaurants within easy walking distance
All towels, linens and crockery provided

Very attractively priced, this superb condo offers fantastic value for money providing, as it does, tremendous resort style amenities, in a secure gated community, with a great location just 2 miles away from Walt Disney World.

Minions Retreat is a 2 bedroom / 2 bathroom second floor condo in the very under-rated, but equally attractive, Oakwater Resort. With 1015 sq ft of living area to enjoy it provides plenty of room to relax, while the resort amenities provide a host of options for those who are more energetic! Located less than a one minute walk from the main clubhouse and pool area, Minions Retreat provides an enjoyable view of the resort amenities which can be viewed from your private patio. As you would expect, this lovely condo also comes extremely well equipped.

Decorated in pastel shades throughout, and thoughtfully furnished too, this condo has much to offer though the real star is the location. This is a very nice condo, compact but with everything you could need but being so close to all the great resort amenities does give it an edge that few can match, and is a major consideration that is hard to ignore. It sleeps 6 people comfortably, though we do prefer to restrict occupancy to 4 to preserve the condition of the home.

The bedrooms consist of one king size master which has full en-suite facilities, and a second room that has a set of bunk beds, with a full on the bottom and a twin on top, which is serviced by the second full bathroom directly opposite. Both bedrooms have cable service and flat screen TV's, with the bunk bed room also having very colorful bedding showing the minions that give the home it's name. At this point we should addthat all towels and linens are provided for your stay, another great feature offered in your home from home.

Minions Retreat also boasts a compact kitchen, spacious living room and dining area, and a laundry room with a full size washer and dryer. The main living area features a large flat screen television, perfect for watching a family movie, and with an upgraded cable package too, there are plenty of those available. *Please note that the home also has high speed wireless internet access, offered complimentary to all Evergreen guests.

After enjoying a memorable day at the theme parks everyone will surely appreciate the well stocked kitchen with a dishwasher, microwave, full size refrigerator and freezer, stove, coffee machine, toaster, waste disposal on offer as well as all the hand held appliances you would expect. With all kitchen utensils and crockery provided too, and a dining area with ample seating for 6, everything is there for you to both prepare, and enjoy, a home cooked family meal.

A patio door from the living area leads onto the private patio furnished with a table and chairs. Facing South you can enjoy the sun over the Oakwater clubhouse and pool until well into the early evening, perhaps enjoying a spot of supper as you plan your next family adventure!.

Another thing worth remembering here is that while this condo is on the resort side, it is only a one minute walk away from Oakwater Lake, and the beautiful walking around it. It is a fantastic feature, quite unique for resorts in this area, and one that hundreds of guests have enjoyed as they take a stroll and observe nature and engage their senses.

To the front of the property is the entry way, which leads to a flight of stairs that you would have to negotiate to get to the second floor where the living space is. We mention that in the name of full disclosure as those who have difficulty with stairs may not find this condo a good fit. For everyone else though it is a great option and has many things to recommend it, not least of which is a private one car garage and a driveway to park your car!

Minions Retreat has been incredibly popular over the years and really would be an excellent choice for all the family, from those who want superb resort style amenities, to families just looking to relax. We really hope you have enjoyed viewing it and look forward so much to welcoming you on your next vacation. Your family will certainly thank you for it, and so will we!

*Don't forget we offer a whole host of extra services including recommendations for attraction tickets, barbecues, baby
equipment and much more to help you get the most from your Evergreen stay!

Nice Condo in Good Location
We had a nice stay and enjoyed the nearby pool. Here are some things to know (in no particular order): 1. The nearby Walmart is one of the nation's busiest. Best to walk there and not drive there. Inside, it is crazy busy. 2. Clothe detergent, shampoo, soap were not provided 3.The kitchen is well equipped. We cooked a few dinners. 4. The traffic in the Orlando area during spring break was absolutely terrible. Plan for this. 5. The people at this condo development (renters and owners) were all very nice.

Nice place, hated the ants
We were in town for a cheer competition and the value for this rental was perfect. The unit is right across from the pool. Everyone in the community was very friendly and the area was quiet, gated and felt safe. The traffic coming back from ESPN/Disney was always heavy, there were times it took ~30 min to get back to the house and without traffic ~15 min. Convenient Wal-Mart, gas station and restaurants nearby. The unit itself had everything you need. We did not have extra trash bags anywhere. My 13-year old loved the minion room. There was an extra rollaway bed in the closet and a set up for a crib. Plenty of drawers and closet space. The previous review about the hard bed in the master was true, I actually felt the reclining sofa was more comfy, but that just may be due to me being picky. Unless I’m blind and completely missed this in the check in packet (although I read a few times), you are required to check in at the clubhouse. There is a sign at the entrance that says “All guests must check in”, but I didn’t know that applied to VRBO guests, I just assumed it was for guests of owners? You must do this to get a code to enter the pool. Unfortunately, there was an ant infestation in the kitchen/dining area which was only noticed the next morning after we had to throw our snacks away that we left on the kitchen counter. Upon closer look, they were ALL OVER the counter tops, floor, dining table, etc. They were even all over my daughters cheer backpack that we left on the dining chair. I offered to send videos to the property manager, but received no reply. We left a day early and stayed at a hotel nearby.

We enjoyed everything about this condo! There was plenty of space and all the supplies we needed for the kitchen and bathrooms, all very clean and nicely furnished. The location of the Resort was perfect to come and go, with a huge Walmart within walking distance for food or anything we forgot to bring. We loved being close to the pool and spa, and the screened in porch. We would definitely stay here again on another trip to Orlando area and will recommend it to others.

Honest review!!! My family and I were SUPER impressed by this place! From the location to the neighborhood. Everything went above and beyond! Big take aways: You needed NOTHING but food/coffee. Appliances galore!!! Towels and washcloths were in abundance. (We left fresh washcloths too!) Everything you need for a baby or a toddler! Even a stroller which came in handy for my toddler at Sea World! Lots of beach items! Baby gates! Location is perfect but bad if you LOVE Walmart!!! Ha! It’s within walking distance! Food establishments EVERYWHERE! Quiet neighborhood Gated-need code to enter-felt safe! Minion room was a hit with my 4 yr old! I really cannot think of anything bad about this place. We cannot wait to return (we actually now want to move to Orlando!) Thanks! ~Shannon
