💬 ASK US ABOUT EARLY BIRD & LAST-MINUTE SAVINGS
Planning ahead or booking last-minute? Either way, it's worth a quick message before you book:

Arriving within the next 14 days for a stay of 5 nights or more? Ask about last-minute pricing for your dates.
Just send us a message through VRBO before booking and we'll see what we can do for your family's dates. It only takes a moment — and it could leave a little more in the budget for the parks.

5.5 miles from Disney. Back at your private pool before the parking lot clears.
Encore Magical Villa — an 8-bedroom, 6.5-bath vacation home just 5.5 miles from Walt Disney World in Kissimmee, FL, with an open-air private pool, an 85" home theater, and a game room built for large groups.
Some properties are close to Disney. This one is 5.5 miles away — and it's maintained like the owners know exactly how much that matters. Encore Magical Villa is owner-operated by a family who has stayed in vacation homes like this themselves, which means they understand what a group of 17 actually needs on day one: a spotless home, everything working, and a local manager who picks up the phone. That's the standard we hold ourselves to, every stay.
Inside: 8 bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms for up to 17 guests, an 85" home theater with 8 leather recliners, and a classic character game room with ping pong, air hockey, arcade machines, and PlayStation. Baby essentials included — pack and play, high chair, and baby bathtub ready when you arrive.
Outside: your open-air private pool & spa with full Florida sun, 7 loungers, outdoor dining for 8, a fire pit for the evenings — and no rear neighbors.
After a long park day, dinner is easy: Finn's restaurant and bar right in the resort, or Publix just 2.5 miles away.
🛏️ THE BEDROOMS
Four kings, two queens, and two themed rooms the kids will be arguing over on the drive from the airport.
1st floor
Master King: primary suite with private ensuite bathroom
Queen Bedroom: full bathroom directly across from the bedroom door
2nd floor
2 King Bedrooms, each with a private ensuite bathroom (Peruvian bedroom and the Blue & White bedroom)
King duotone Bedroom: shares a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with the Galactic Room
Queen blue Bedroom: shares a Jack-and-Jill bathroom with the Ice Princess Room, ideal for parents who want to stay close to the little ones
Ice Princess Room: two twin beds, built for little believers
Galactic Room: twin-over-full bunk bed plus a trundle, sleeps 3
Sleeps up to 17. With six and a half bathrooms, mornings actually work: no lineup, no negotiating, and no one still in the shower when the park opens.
🏊 PRIVATE OPEN-AIR POOL & SPA
No screen, no shade structure, no barriers — just open Florida sky, full sun, and a pool and spa that feel genuinely resort-grade. Seven sun loungers, outdoor dining for 8, a covered patio for when the shade calls, and complete backyard privacy with no rear neighbors. Pool alarm and child safety fence included.
Upstairs: 8 leather recliners, 85" screen. The kind of movie setup that makes the hotel down the street feel like a mistake.
Downstairs: ping pong, air hockey, 2 arcade machines, PlayStation 4 — everything the game room needs to keep teenagers occupied and adults entertained past midnight. A dedicated pretend play corner with a wooden playhouse and pretend kitchen gives the youngest guests a world of their own.
🍳 KITCHEN & DINING
Modern appliances, Keurig coffee maker, breakfast bar for 4, dining table that seats 12, kid-friendly dinnerware, and a mini fridge. The kind of kitchen that turns "should we eat in tonight?" from a question into an obvious answer.
👶 BABY & TODDLER ESSENTIALS
Already in the home at no extra charge: pack and play, high chair, and baby bathtub. Need more? Additional equipment — cribs, strollers, car seats, monitors — available through our partner company, subject to availability.
📍 PRIME ORLANDO LOCATION
5.5 miles from Disney's front gate — one of the most convenient locations for families making daily park runs.
Resort amenities — including Finn's restaurant and bar and the sports facilities — are operated by the resort, and their hours and availability are set by the resort, not by us. Schedules may vary by season and some amenities may operate on reduced hours or close temporarily without notice. We're unable to control or guarantee resort operating hours, but we're always happy to share the latest information we have.

Great location and very clean!
Would absolutely stay here again. All questions were answered quickly, the house was in wonderful condition, and the location was central to so many attractions! Wonderful hosts.
Perfect all the way around. We will definitely be doing business year over year from this point moving forward. I appreciate how easy everything was to do. Our property manager was perfect. Thank you for a great family vacation.
We really enjoyed our time in this villa.
It is spacious, clean, comfortable and well equipped. The gated community felt very safe and secure.
Any issues we had were responded to immediately and dealt with very quickly.
I can thoroughly recommend it, it’s as nice, if not better, than it looks in the pictures
Great communication with the host, house is as advertised, very clean, you can tell they care about the property. Pool heat was worth paying for as hot tub gets very warm and pool was very comfortable. The property manager had to stop by to replace a pool light and was very friendly and professional. We will absolutely look to stay here again, when in the area. Highly recommend!
We were a group of families down for 2024 Dance Nat’ls Competition at ESPN in Jan.
The 6 suite BRs + 2 themed BRs + 6 bthrms were a perfect fit for our families as each family had their own bthrm or shared bthrm w/kids.
Recommend heating for pool (Jan), as the pool and jacuzzi were a hit with our group. The rented grill was also put to good use.
Pictures do the house justice and house was tastefully decorated. Game room in garage, theater room and gaming console area besides jacuzzi & pool meant you could relax on any given day w/o leaving house for a break from WDW.
Ideal location: walking distance to Encore’s clubhouse for restaurant/grill & short driving distance to everything, especially WDW. Wshr/dryer means you can pack light.
Overall, if you have a large group….look no further. This is the one!

Our family of 17 came together for our annual family vacation. The property and area was very nice. The neighborhood was quiet and safe. There was adequate space for everyone to sleep and park. The kids enjoyed the basketball court and we all enjoyed the private pool.
Although a pool umbrella was advertised, there was not one available so we couldn’t enjoy sitting around the pool until the sun went down. This didn’t give us much time to enjoy as there were no pool lights.
Our trash was also not picked up daily as stated which caused us to have a lot of trash at departure.
There was an issue with our cable and when called, the host had someone respond quickly.
Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely choose this property again.

Unbelievable stay
From start to finish was 5* Brigette was so good to deal with and villa was a dream
We stayed for a nice 2 week getaway.. perfect for working from home and enjoying the Florida sun by the pool and convenience to every store, mall and park. Loved the pool. Great communication from the host. Would stay again.
This was a great house for a relaxing week of family time. Brigitte was very responsive, and we were able to contact the management company if we needed anything. It was very clean and comfortable. We would stay here again!
We came here to bring the family together for the holidays. Amazing house with perfect amount of space. Both owner and property management company were extremely responsive and helped us with anything we needed. Highly recommend.
We loved the pool we loved how each room was spacious we loved the jacuzzi. Only problem was cleaning crew was there when we arrived but once they left everything was great!!! Definitely will come back.
We had a group of 12 of all different ages and this large house was perfect for us. The check in process was easy and Bridget quickly would reply to any questions I had. The house had all the amenities I needed and everyone loved the pool. The drive to Disney and Universal was good.
Fantastic villa, great service, highly recommended
Villa is spacious, spotless and very well furnished and equipped, Brigitte at Orlando Magic Villas said as superb at staying in touch. Process made very easy from booking to check out. 10 out of 10!!
