6-bedroom pool home with 4 kings, spa and game room, Emerald Island

Four of the six bedrooms have king beds, so four couples each get a proper room while the children take the twin room and the bunk room. Your private screened pool has a raised spa and looks out over conservation land. The game room has a Star Wars theme, with a pool table, air hockey and foosball. The home sleeps 15 and has 5.5 bathrooms at gated Emerald Island Resort in Kissimmee, about 5 miles from Disney's Animal Kingdom and 9 from Magic Kingdom.
