Great stay

Everything was as stated. Monica stayed in touch to be sure things were going well after our arrival and the night before we left. Of the homes we have stayed at this was our favorite. We paid for heated pool and the last night we were there it was in the 50s but my granddaughters played in the pool all evening.

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

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.

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.

Adult Family Vacation

Everything was excellent. All the information for the house was sent several days in advance. Giving me time to make sure we had everything we needed. Monica checked in to make sure everything was ok. She answered any questions and sent all the check-out information again before we left. We paid for the heat and the pool and hot tub was great! Everything was clean and the kitchen well stocked for cooking anything.

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.

Thank you for a lovely stay. Villa was as described. Monica was super efficient in responding to any queries, which were resolved quickly.
