4 Bed 3 Bath Orlando Villa on Bridgewater Crossing

We have stayed in this villa on many occasions stretching back for several years.The reason why we choose this villa is for many reasons. Hazel and Alan are super to deal with. The information shared is succinct and accurate. The management company KBL lead by Jane is super. They are available 247. The villa is spacious, very clean and has all the comforts of home. The piece de resistance is the location. Fantastic lake view, not overlooked, large pool and a very accommodating lanai. This year was very special as the villa next door also owned by Hazel was home to our daughter, her husband and our grandchildren. We spent hours playing in the pool and visiting the many great restaurants close by. The area is booming with wonderful eateries. Plus publix and Target is on the doorstep. We have already booked for next summer. Superb holiday accommodation. 1 st class.

Thank you so much Elaine and Terry for a brilliant review. Delighted that you have booked again. Best regards, Hazel and Alan

Just got back from 3 weeks in this lovely villa. The view and pool on the back garden was exactly what we wanted on our trip to florida. Sat watching the wildlife including gators, birds of prey, terrapins, cranes and the fish that leap out of the water, wether at night or in the day was what we wanted on our holiday when having chill time away from the parks. The inside of the villa is very spacious lovely big bedrooms with loads of wardrobe space and en suites. The villa has everything you need and more. Location is perfect to about 20-30mins away from the parks and loads of restaurants and shops within 5-10 minutes drive. Wish we was all still there and we will definately be coming back. Thanks for lending us your villa very grateful for the memories we made as a family.

Thank you David and Lucy for a brilliant review on our property. We are delighted that you had a wonderful time. Best regards, Hazel and Alan

Communication with the owners before and after booking was excellent. On arrival, the instructions were easy to follow. The villa felt very spacious. The decor is slightly dated and in places could do with a lick of fresh paint but it was immaculate. I am really fussy about cleanliness, and I can honestly say, it was spotless. Im also a freak when it comes to creepy crawlies, so whenever we stay somewhere, I have to look in all the corners of the room for cobwebs etc. even the garage was spotless and the poolside. The villa had everything you could possibly need. Each bedroom has a walk in wardrobe. So many towels, clean sheets, cutlery, cups etc. we used the pool lilos, and took the umbrellas to disney springs on a rainy say. The bikes were a great touch but sadly we didn't get to use them. We could have used the cool boxes, golf clubs, tennis rackets, ponchos, but again we didn't get to. There are plenty of books, and games available too. The kitchen was very spacious, didn't use the dishwasher, we just washed up as we went but two tablets were left if we needed them. Great size fridge freezer and larder for all our snacks. We used the washing machine and tumble drier a few times for swimwear which was so handy. My daughter stayed in the double bedroom at the front of the house with the ensuite and she said it was the most comfortable bed she had ever slept in. AC was great. There is an alarm system that you set when leaving and disarm when you come back in, this gave us confidence, as there was no safe to use. When you open the pool door and garage door the alarm system tells you, so again great security if you have young children. Wifi was superb, tellies in the bedroom were a little dated but were hardly used. On the odd occasion we watched telly we had access to all channels and netflix in the lounge. The sofas are really comfortable. I was very impressed with the management company. Tropical storm Debbie arrived when we were there. I had a really friendly call from the management company to reassure us and give advice on what to do. Her predictions were spot on. It came and went so quickly, just like a normal rainy and windy day in the UK, her advice was not to be out driving in it. The pool and outlook to the lake was my favourite. I could spend hours watching the cranes and alligator hunting (no luck unfortunately). We saw a few baby lizards about, they are so cute. The pool was cleaned once a week whilst we were there. The water was warm in August. The area of bridgewater crossing felt really safe, there is a sheriff who lives just around the corner. The villa is about 5 minutes from Champions Gate with access to Publix, MCDonalds, Millers, Olive Garden and so many more. The only slightly negative point is the I4. It sometimes took over an hour to get to Universal Studios or home from those parks. Would I stay again and recommend to family and friends, absolutely. If I could, I would be booking up again for next year!! Thank you Hazel, for sharing your wonderful villa!
