Ideal property for exploring the parks
Great property, everything we needed for a week at the parks We’ve stayed in the same location before and it’s ideal, close enough for the daily travel but far enough away to be peaceful as well The property had everything we needed and on the couple of occasions we had minor issues they were resolved that day once we got in touch with Monica

Thank you for a lovely stay. Villa was as described. Monica was super efficient in responding to any queries, which were resolved quickly. Some areas could do with a little update and further cleaning. Despite this, we had a great few weeks in a lovely quiet and safe residential area. Thanks again Monica!

Very pleased with "The Shire" Home
"The Shire" was a wonderful home away from home for our 10 day Florida family vacation during March 2024. The home was spacious, comfortable and had all the amenities that we needed. The house is located in a beautiful, quiet gated community. Communication with our host Monica was excellent and she was very responsive. We would definitely stay again.

Fantastic vacation home
This property was an ideal location for our get away. It was close enough to everything that we wanted to see and do yet quiet and secluded. It was tastefully decorated and had everything that we needed. We would definitely use this VRBO again. The whole process was seamless and hostess was great to deal with. Highly recommended

Awesome property. My family had a great time and enjoyed the house. Pool and hot tub was wonderful and very relaxing. Communication with Monica was easy as we forgot a few things at the house and she was wonderful in helping us to get our items back. I hope we can stay here when we visit Florida again next year.

I honestly wish I could give this property more than 5 stars! The pictures of this house do not even do it justice. It is absolutely beautiful and very spacious. The owner, Monica, was a pleasure to work with and answered any questions that we had quickly and kindly. Do not hesitate to book this property as you will not regret it!

Beautiful home / Great location
Beautifully decorated home - very roomy. Great location - short drive to Orlando attractions. Close enough for day trips to Tampa / St Pete / Clearwater beaches - which we did. The house layout allows for bedrooms with personal space and large kitchen and dining room was great for family dinners. Monica, the owner, was very helpful and responded quickly to the few questions we had. We would stay again and highly recommend this home for families / couples visiting the Orlando area.

Perfect relaxing stay for the holidays
Our family was looking for someplace convenient to things to see and do in Orlando, but we wanted a quiet neighborhood to get away from the noise when we wanted to. This place was perfect! The gated neighborhood meant we didn't see hardly any cars coming by the house, and we had a great time relaxing in the heated pool and hot tub while looking over the natural area in the backyard. The house had lots of space for our family & we loved the open floorplan for casual dining and watching TV etc. The workspace was a nice touch and wifi was super fast, very much appreciated as we needed to do some work while away from home. Home was very clean and our host was super responsive with any questions. Overall awesome stay!

A beautiful villa
Monica's spacious and beautiful villa is situated in the Shire at West Haven, and is handily placed for drives up the I-4 to Disney, Universal, and also the Premium Outlets and malls. It has two Publix supermarkets within 10 minutes, and is also close to Posner Park, for fans on Bath & Body Works. The Shire itself is a well maintained gated community that provides tranquility away from the theme parks, and there is ample opportunity at the villa for some sun drenched lounging at pool side. Highly recommended.

Nice Property
We've had a great time at West Haven. The house is nicely located in Champions Gate, Davenport. It was nicely equipped with all of our needs. Each of the bedrooms had a TV. The beds were very comfortable which produced quality sleep. The host was available for any questions, and responded quickly. We've experienced an issue with the hot tub, however the host quickly rectified the issue. We will definitely stay there again. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your house.

Awesome!
I loved my stay here with my family. The house is very spacious; lots of room to spread out when you have different age range of children. Everyone had their own space to relax and when it was time to come together the common areas were just what we needed including the pool and spa. We were very close to all the theme parks and any type of store we may have needed. Also was close to restaurants. We had a fun time cooking and eating together as the kitchen was fully equipped. The neighborhood is very quiet also. I would recommend the Shire to anyone that ask about my vacation.
