'The Retreat' Villa at Sunset Lakes - Explore Disney and Florida in style

Welcome to 'The Retreat' Villa a wonderful high spec villa, with South/South East facing pool and lakefront location offering you a luxurious vacation home for your visit to Orlando.

The Villa is located in a cul-de-sac with no through traffic within the quiet gated community of Sunset Lakes, just 4 miles from Disney making it one of the closest rental villas available to all of the Orlando theme parks, shopping malls and many golf courses.

After a long day enjoying all that Orlando has to offer, relax and unwind around the private pool enjoying the beautiful views of Sunset Lakes and enjoy the evening entertainment of the spectacular Disney fireworks lighting up the sky.

Our beautiful 4 bedroom/3.5 bathroom villa (over 2600 sq ft/over 3500 sq ft including the pool area) has recently been upgraded to a high standard, amongst the many upgrades are flat screen cable TV/DVD combo’s in all bedrooms, a large 60” flat screen cable TV and state of the art iPod dock/radio/CD player in the family room, iPod docks in all bedrooms and a fantastic outdoor entertainment area including fridge, sink, grill and cable TV and new granite worksurfaces.

The villa’s private pool overlooks the beautiful Sunset Lake, the pool is not overlooked from either side offering you the highest level of privacy. The pool can be illuminated with bright LED pool lighting. Make the most of your time at 'The Retreat' villa and enjoy the pool all day and night with our unique poolside outdoor entertainment area with grill, sink,refrigerator and cable flatscreen TV. We are also pleased to be able to offer a smaller shallow pool suitable for younger children, this adjoins the main pool.
The decking around the pool has ample furniture for all your needs including sun loungers, a high top table and bar stools as well as a breakfast table and seating.

The villa benefits from two excellent sized master suites, each master suite has a King size bed, flatscreen TV/DVD combo with 100's of cable channels including movies and sports, iPod docks, oval bath tub, walk in shower, 'his and her' sinks, WC and large walk-in closets. Both master suites have fantastic views overlooking Sunset Lake.

Two Disney themed twin rooms (Micky Mouse/Minnie Mouse themes), both of which have twin beds, iPod docks, flatscreen TV/DVD combo's with cable including kids entertainment channels and large closets.

The main family room has 3 large comfortable sofa's positioned around a fantastic 60' flatscreen smart TV with DVD and cable channels, also in the family room is a state of the art iPod dock/radio/CD player providing all the entertainment you could need.

A separate living area which we call the lounge room offers two further large sofa’s, one of which can be converted into a double sofa bed (bedding provided), and a dining room with seating for six.

The open plan large kitchen and breakfast area overlooks the family room and also has a dining table with seating for six. The kitchen is fully equipped with a large fridge/freezer with ice-maker and water dispenser, microwave oven, electric oven with ceramic hob, dishwasher, food disposal and telephone (free USA wide calls) and has recently been upgraded with granite worksurfaces.

Each room has in addition to full air conditioning, an overhead ceiling fan. This includes the pool deck keeping you cool in the fantastic Florida sun.

‘The Retreat’ continues to provide for our visitors with a large games room which is home to a pool table, table football/multi game table, darts board, a Playstation 2 with games, a TV and Hi Fi system.

For your enjoyment we have provided an extensive DVD selection and book library at ‘The Retreat’.

Sunset Lakes is a gated community with community pool and children's play area just two minutes walk away from ‘The Retreat’. In addition just 30seconds walk from the villa is a beautiful fishing dock available for your use (fishing rods provided).

There are over 20 golf courses within a very short distance from Sunset Lakes including Mystic Dunes,Orange Lake, Celebration and Falcons Fire. Feel free to visit local golf shops/outlets who are more than happy to offer advice on course condition and normally provide vouchers for cheaper green fee’s.

The Formosa Gardens shopping Plaza is about one mile from the house. It boasts several restaurants including Carrabas, TGI's, Outback Steakhouse, Red Lobster, Buffalo Wild Wings, Chinese, Italian and a new Sushi Bar.
There is also crazy golf if you feel really energetic.

Wonderful home
This is a 5 star property and vacation rental in an excellent private but accessible location. The home is well appointed and the landscaping and outdoor area is beautiful. We had an issue with the entry code not working on day 3 of a 7 day stay so the advice is to carry the emergency number provided in the unit since contacting the owner did not work and VRBO could not help. We got the emergency contact from a very nice neighbor so did not have to go to a hotel to sleep when the lock out occurred.

Home away from home
Easy to locate the property. Upon arriving our key code didnt work so I called the # provided on the paperwork and received a working code within 5 minutes. Home had some broken blinds, and 1/2 bath toilet didnt work. Maintenence said they could come the next day and repair it but we had 3 other onea so they were asked to repair it when we leave. The home was amazing. Perfect layout , comfy beds. Only downfall was the rooms had extremely thin walls. We could hear everything , ever movement in the home. Our doorwall to the pool from our room didnt open but thats fine. The blinds in the downstairs master need to be replaced or curtains installed. If someone was trying to shower or change everyone on the pool deck could see them or across the pond of ita late at night. There is no main door to the master bath leaving the shower and bathtub fully exposed. Othwr than that, I would definitely rent this place again... we did. Clean 4 of the 6 beds worth bedding and all towels before we left to make it easier on the house cleaning person. We left some food in the fridge and freezer that were never opened or touched. Hopefully someone can use it.

Fabulous!
We had a wonderful two-week stay at The Retreat. The location was fantastic just off the Disney end of the 192, with shops, restaurants and Disney all so close by. Having two master suites was fantastic as the Grandparents could stay downstairs while kids and parents could keep their mess upstairs. The pool was fantastic, lake great for views and fishing and in a quiet neighbourhood. All in all a fabulous place for a Florida holiday to relax and explore. Must say - the photos don't do the place justice and need updating!

Great 10 day stay!
The home is so lovely and clean. This has to be the cleanest house we’ve ever rented. From the moment you walk through the door, the high ceilings and view straight back to the pool and lake, stunning. We spent almost all of our time on the patio. We ate every meal out there and just enjoyed the lake view. Rooms are spacious, management addressed issues quickly. We would definitely recommend staying here.

This villa is excellently positioned within Sunset Lakes, with views overlooking the main lake and an extra side deck which catches the evening sun.
