Grand Disney Themed Home

The communication with the owners was excellent from before arrival to throughout the stay.The home was perfect, with room for everyone. Each differently-themed room was well thought out, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, and pans—almost anything else you may need through a week. There were towels for each bathroom, and the pool had separate towels. The pool was warm and very clean. We had a great time on the two relaxing days we spent by the pool.Proximity to the Disney properties should not be overlooked. It was only a minute's drive and very easy to get in and out. Lastly felt very secure is a gated community and could not have asked for more.

MAGICAL STAY IN ORLANDO

Everything, absolutely everything, exceeded our expectations. Perfect home for on "off Disney" property vacation. The ease of check-in was wonderful. The pictures do not do the house justice as it is, in my opinion, fabulous. There are plenty of towels, bedding, and kitchen items. The backyard pool is lovely and clean; our grandkids would have been happy there every day! The owners are just lovely, helpful, and responsive! I couldn't have asked for a better host. They answered every question, big or small, and were extremely accommodating! This trip was a "10 PLUS" because of our stay at this home.

This was a property that lived up to its billing.

I would advertise this house as one of the best house rentals I have experienced. Owners were in touch both before and during the house. The house was immaculate and well-kept. The kitchen was incredibly well stocked, and the family (of 16) made good use of it. It was easy to enter and exit the neighborhood and it is straightforward to navigate to the parks and Orlando generally. The pictures in the description are accurate, and the whole family (ages 9-50) enjoyed their stay in a themed room. I cannot recommend the house and the owners enough.

Absolutely Amazing

More impressive than the description. Our family had an amazing time. We felt like we could be together but also have our on own space. Plus the hosts have thought of everything especially for family with younger kids. High chair, gates, booster and a couple of snap an go strollers. If we go back we would love to stay there again.

Fabulous villa and lovely hosts! Highly recommend.

Just returning from a fabulous 16 nights at this beautiful villa. We were a mixed family group of 17 people with ages ranging from 1-77. The villa is very close to Disney, with an amazing pool and terrace and the best appointed games room we’ve ever seen ! There really was something for everyone.The owner was a pleasure to deal with, kept in touch throughout our stay, and was very accommodating with some last minute changes and a late checkout request. We would strongly recommend this villa and hope to return again next time we visit Orlando.

Perfect holiday home with the perfect host - do not miss out on booking your stay at House

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Mickey’s Oyster and our host - couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating! From the moment we booked they went out of their way to make our stay totally perfect by providing help and information on all manner of things such as local places to visit, restaurants and of course the Disney Parks and Universal Studios. The really couldn’t have been more helpful or responsive, replying to any queries in a super speedy manner - we felt like they were one of the family by the end of our stay!We are a large family of 12, with three youngsters aged 2, 3 and 6yrs, and from the moment we walked into this beautiful and spacious home we were all totally blown away!! The comfortable furnishings, fabulous décor, themed rooms with Disney magic, cinema room with pool table (which got lots of use!) are just a few of the villa’s utterly perfect features. The home is exactly as shown in the photos – in fact better – it is beautifully clean with ample towels in all the bathrooms and for use by the heated pool. Speaking of the pool - WOW – it is totally wonderful!! The whole family loved it, and it rapidly became a firm favorite - it was a great place to relax and have fun after a busy day out at the theme parks. It is spacious with ample seating, gets a lovely amount of sun and has beautiful clear views of the starry skies at night. There were lots of extras for us all to enjoy, were our favorites. The bedrooms are stunning with great theming and the beds are super comfy, all the bed linen was clean and luxurious, and the entire villa was spotless.The host does an amazing job of providing all the home comforts - including all kitchen tools, utensils, and appliances. The laundry room easily accommodated our large family’s washing needs. There are 2 huge fridge freezers and supermarkets (to fill them!) are within 3 minutes’ drive away. The villa’s location is perfect for local restaurants and theme parks, and Formosa Gardens is quiet with beautiful views and scenery. Mickey’s Oyster truly is the most perfect holiday home and with perfect hosts, I really cannot fault them and their luxurious home - I thoroughly recommend staying here and we all cannot wait to come back when we visit Orlando again. Thank you so much for allowing us to share your beautiful home and for helping to make our stay so magical.
