Location
Highlands Reserve villas located in Davenport, Florida just off HWY27. This luxury villa rental, golf course community is a great place from which explore all the world famous Orlando attractions. As you enter the community you drive down the main tree lined Highlands Reserve Blvd and pass the clubhouse on your right. Various golf holes can also be seen from either side of the road. The community also has a children’s play area. NO SERVICE FEE
The Highlands Reserve villa community is split into seven subdivisions. Most have golf related names you will recognise including, Troon, Belfry and Gleneagles. If the names inspire you to enjoy a round of golf, then tee times can be booked at the clubhouse. The course is ideal for golfers of all levels. With wide open fairways, undulating greens and only one water hazard on the tenth hole.
For a different golfing experience why not try the Country Club at Champions Gate or Ridgewood Lakes both of which are nearby. Other local courses include Southern Dunes, Reunion Resort (3 courses) and Champions Gate (2 courses). So many options so little time!
If you are in Orlando to visit the theme parks then Highlands Reserve is a great location with Disney World's main gate only 15 minutes away. Whilst, Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure and SeaWorld are around 25 minutes away by car.
Fancy a day at the beach, no problem, Highlands Reserve is located about an hour from either coast. Cocoa Beach on the Atlantic is great for surfing. Whilst, Clearwater Beach on the Gulf Coast is ideal for swimming or relaxing in the calm warm waters, which live up to it’s name!
Highlands Reserve Florida Villas in Davenport
All our Highlands Reserve Davenport villas are located around 35 minutes from Orlando International Airport (MCO). Sanford (SFB) and Tampa (TPA) airports are just over an hour away. British Airways and Virgin Atlantic fly direct to Orlando and Tampa along with a number of other airlines. Most tour operators like Thomson fly into Sanford airport.
A great advantage of staying on Highlands Reserve is the size of the lots the villas are built on. Having oversized lots means the homes are not right on top of each other, which you often see on other Orlando villa communities.
Guests come back year after year to Highlands Reserve making it one of the most popular villa communities in Orlando. With its great location, excellent golf course and larger than normal homes, it's easy to see why!

We have added the actual driving distances to the main Orlando theme parks. These are not the distances to the main gate which most people quote, but to the car park for each attraction.

- Animal Kingdom - 11 miles
- Hollywood Studios - 13 miles
- Magic Kingdom - 15 miles
- Epcot - 15 miles

Pool Safety Fences
Most of our Florida villas will either have door alarms on any exterior door that leads to the pool area or a pool safety fence surrounding the pool. Some even both, we have put together a blog post and video showing you how to use the fence. If there are no children in your party then you can take it out and rolling it up in the corner if you prefer but please put it back when you leave the villa, ready for the next guests.

Excellent place to stay
We are staying in the villa at present and don't want to go home at the weekend. The stay has been very relaxing and it is very easy to Communicate with the owners. The villa is very clean and inviting and has a wonderful view at the back of the nature reserve, where we have spotted a few turkeys going past. The neighbourhood is very respectable and we will definetly book again in the future, and bring the family. That's if we don't plan another sneaky one on our own. We'll back to work next week to dream about our return maybe next year

Brilliant time at Birkdale
We've just spent a wonderful week at Sam & Betty's fantastic villa at Highlands Reserve.....we didn't want to leave!
We loved the location of the villa, having no rear neighbours was a first for us and felt so private, peaceful and relaxing, along with having the fantastic wildlife to watch out for...we spotted a coyote one day, a giant tortoise, a small snake (more like a worm!) wild turkeys, geckos, dragon flies, squirells, butterflies .....it was amazing! The pool area was brilliant...tonnes of space with plenty of seats and loungers to enjoy the sun or shade.
The villa had absolutely everything you could need or want and really is a home from home with 4 spacious bedrooms, welcoming tv/sofa area and well equipped kitchen and dining area.
We can't wait to come back!
Thanks again for having us :)
