The space
As you enter your gathering house you are met with the feeling of openness as you move from the foyer, into the kitchen and dining room and family gathering room, passing by personally selected décor hand-picked to make you feel at home yet remind you that you are at a world known destination. Each space melds perfectly into the next. This open floor plan provides perfect access to the spacious relaxing lanai and the warm and entertaining private pool and spa area through the sliding doors.
The kitchen is fully stocked for all your culinary delights including Keurig Duo, hot water kettle, slow cooking pot, and Mickey Waffle maker. We do not leave you wanting for any utensil. The meals you prepare are well-served on the granite counter space for bar seating and the large dining area table. You can even bring your family outside as you enjoy the wonderful central Florida weather. We provide paper towels, trash bags, and dish pods for your entire holiday.

About the host: My wife Belinda and I have been married for almost 20 years. We have twin boys. Our family loves travelling to Orlando and to Disney specifically. We are about to step into Universal mode as well and we will let you know how that goes. We come to Orlando 3-4 times per year often with friends and extended family and the planning of the trip is almost as much fun for me as the actual trip itself as I get to try to envision each day for my family. Seeing our kids enjoy character interactions and shows is priceless. Our most recent trip to Disney was in March of 2020 and we went to all 4 theme parks on March 15 the day prior to the closure. Four parks, 17 attractions experienced including Seven Dwarves Mine Train, Splash Mountain, Big Thunder Mountain RR, Space Mountain, Pirates, Soarin', Test Track, Everest, Kilimanjaro Safari , Avatar Flight of Passage, Millennium Falcon, Toy Story Mania, and Slinky Dog Dash. What an incredible day!
We have made a plethora of special memories and have met a lot of families from all over the country both at Disney World and on Disney Cruises and we all share the desire to make lasting memories with our families. I know you will be able to do that at Sun Gathering House!
Why this property? We have been coming to Orlando to to to the parks and as a gateway to cruises for the last 6 years. We stayed at a house once and absolutely loved the experience and realized, this is something we want more families to experience as well. We looked for months to find the right property to purchase and were thrilled when we found this property for sale. It has everything the vacationing family could want and more.

RobertAmazing Vacation Villa 5 star!!!!
My family stayed at the Sun Gathering House for 9 nights from late August and could not have been happier with the villa. It was luxurious, spacious and had every amenity you could think of to make our vacation perfect. The bedrooms were spacious with ample storage. Beds were extremely comfortable ensuring a good nights sleep after busy days having fun at the parks or enjoying the private swimming pool or the two onsite waterparks. The kids loved the pool, gaming room and cinema room and couldn’t wait to get home and use them. The villa had a fantastic large open plan living room and kitchen with high end fittings that had plenty of space for large groups to enjoy meals together.We have stayed at many homes in the Orlando area over the years and have to say that this home was easily the best that we have been lucky enough to stay in.The host could not have been more helpful and responsive from booking to departure, providing lots of information about the home and the area.I would highly recommend the villa to anyone looking for a luxury vacation home in the Orlando area. Book without hesitation, you will not be disappointed.Rob

Carrie M.Fabulous stay in a fabulous house
We were three families sharing this villa. The villa is amazing, it had everything we needed. Lots of extras like a waffle maker and good coffee machine. The 2 washing machines and dryers was a godsend when you have 13 people. The games room, cinema room and pool were well utilised. From my first contact with David the owner he gave me a price fully inclusive of pool heating with no hidden extras. Any time I contacted David he was fast in replying and put me at ease with parting with a considerable amount of money. We love staying at Champions gate as it has an amazing retail area. Will have no hesitation in hiring from David again.

Helen T.Perfect holiday
We have just spent a wonderful time staying at Sungathering house. The house is well equipped with excellent facilities, good sized comfortable rooms with good quality furnishings and its location is perfect for all the Disney parks. David the owner is very helpful and responds quickly to queries. Nothing is too much trouble. I wish we could have stayed longer, a real home from home

Alycia R.Amazing for large groups or families!
Sun Gathering House was perfect for our large family! The private pool and hot tub sent the stay over the top! We had full access to the club house and amenities therein. This multi-family-friendly home was close to restaurants and grocery stores with easy access to the highway to get wherever else you want or need to go. Upon arrival, we noticed a couple things that needed fixed eventually...they did not effect our stay in any way but the owner sent the management company straight over so these things could be fixed. Communication with the owner was always top notch and timely. We look forward to staying here again!

Kristin L.Fantastic time!
This was my first time renting a vacation home. I was very skeptical if the pictures would be as nice as the actual house. Let me tell you—the place is gorgeous. It looked exactly like the pictures. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. It was great coming back from the Disney parks and jumping in the pool. We loved being able to grill and cook dinner at the house. The rooms are nicely appointed and spacious. The Oasis Club was an added bonus. We all had a nice time at the lazy river. The restaurant on site was also very good. We celebrated my niece’s 13th birthday there. Food was excellent. I would definitely come back to this house. David was a great host!!

Carolyn A.Amazing Stay!
This is our second visit to Sun Gathering House and we couldn’t be happier. This house is amazing for large groups, enough space for everyone to unwind but also come together as a family.The beds are comfortable and the bedrooms/bathrooms are all well appointed. Lots of storage/closet/counter space.The kitchen is huge and great for making family meals and prepping for a day out. The kitchen has everything you could need and the Mickey waffle maker is a great touch.Our kiddos LOVE the pool and the outdoor space is phenomenal. The pool is heated and a perfect depth for kids to play, it is also very clean and well maintained.The movie room and games room are always a big hit, again, enough room for kiddos and cousins to spread out and enjoy themselves. Caught our kids reading on the beanbags and playing air hockey.The neighbourhood is gated and secure which is nice as a visitor and the grocery store, Target etc are all very close by. The oasis pool is amazing for a couple of days of the trip. The oasis club can get busy so I would go early!David is beyond attentive and wonderful to communicate with. We cannot wait until our next family trip here!

Greg L.Exceeded my expectations
I put in quite a bit of research before booking at the Sun Gathering House. I looked at many other houses and this house appeared to be the best value. I was not disappointed when I arrived. The house was beautiful, and in very good shape. The house was well stocked for our group of 16 people. Everything we needed was included, and based on my research this was worth about $50 per day to have spa heat & a grill included. It was close to the Oasis pool area, and we preferred walking as opposed to driving (5 min walk). The theater & three screen video game set up was a hit with the kids. Additionally we really enjoyed the basketball & soccer area that was in the development but a short drive away.Overall I would recommend this house. You will not be disappointed with this house.

Holly B.Vacation Bliss!
We stayed 10 days in this spectacular home! A perfect place to relax and play after the chaos of the theme parks!The house is beautiful and pristine in its cleanliness with an open layout. The rooms are very spacious and well-appointed with many extra amenities. The furniture is inviting and comfortable!The pool is always heated at a perfect temp for free! The spa heats quickly so I could have my morning coffee in the spa!The gated community grounds are very nice! It was a brief 2-4 minute walk to the clubhouse. We had a blast in the lazy river and water park! And poolside drink service was a plus! Next time I will schedule a massage!The house is close to the freeway, stores, restaurants, and just a short drive to Disney and universal parks.David, the owner was positively marvelous! He was warm and welcoming, responded very quickly to calls/text/email. He checked in to see if we were having fun or needed anything and gave great ideas! He is an "ultra supra" host!With many magical memories, we will continue to recommend this home to other friends and look forward to another visit! Thank you!-Holly
