Luxury Executive 9 bed South View Villa, Solterra Resort

The owner of this home and the property is absolutely outstanding. Pat was a true star from initial enquiry right through to the end of our 2 weeks stay . The home is stunning, spotlessly clean and in a fantastic location. It was fully equipped with everything we needed for our large family vacation . The grocery store was a 5 minute drive, very convenient. The pool, hot tub and ample seating around the pool really made our holiday. I cannot stress enough how fantastic it was. Excellent communication from Pat with thorough details on entry and directions to the home. Cannot recommend highly enough. Thanks so much for everything . Till next time !!

This property is one of the best we have stayed in. It is meticulously maintained and filled with all the necessities for a vacation. The kitchen is well equipped with two dishwashers, two refrigerators, and both a Keurig and a Mr Coffee. The view from the pool is delightful and we all enjoyed watching the birds in the peaceful atmosphere. The privacy was a bonus. I highly recommend this house and the lovely community.

Thank you for the great review. We hope to host you again soon.

This is the second time we've stayed in this home. The owners have thought of everything you might need. Extra beach towels, extra kitchen towels, dishes, pots and pans, etc. The home is beautiful and comfortable and the children had the best time. We will definitely stay here again.

Everything about this villa holiday was FIRST CLASS. From our initial enquiry with the owner Pat in the UK nothing was too much trouble. We were given all the information needed about the villa, location, services, shopping etc. to ensure a successful trip. The villa itself was just as pictured and totally AMAZING! Spotlessly clean, lots of space, wonderful comfy beds (best sleep ever in the USA), exceptional furniture and fittings and everything possible provided to ensure a happy stay. The large pool area overlooking the open conservation area was a delight and an ideal place to relax after busy park days. We were so sorry to leave and would love to return in the future.

Our vacation at South View Villa finally happened after a 2 year covid delay!!! What a beautiful place … we loved it! Very spacious with lots of rooms for our grandkids .. and the games room was a hit (once we got them out of the pool!) It was very clean and well stocked - we had everything we needed!! Loved the 2 refrigerators, dishwashers, and washers and dryers. Very private and quiet with beautiful view out back. It was an amazing vacation with lots of wonderful memories!

Our entire family of 12 enjoyed our stay in this beautiful home. It was clean, well furnished and the pool/hot tub was used a lot. Plenty of space for everyone. Just a 25 - 35 minute drive to Disney depending upon time. Plenty of shopping and restaurants near by. We would stay again. Please add a pizza cutter to the kitchen and purchase new air hockey plungers.

Thank you for the great review - air hockey plungers have already been renewed and the pizza cutter - thank you for advising. We hope to hear from you when you are planning your next trip

The house was perfect for our large group of 10 adults and 7 children ages 0-12, and we even had a bedroom to spare. The home was very clean and extremely spacious and provided everyone with a private bath too. The biggest hit was the swimming pool and hot tub and the setting was both beautiful and peaceful. Very impressed from start to finish with the ease of check in/out and the availability of the host and owners. Sharon was great and answered any questions we had during our stay and Pat was very accommodating and responded quickly to all our inquiries from early on. This home has so much attention to detail, kitchen was well stocked and provided everything we needed and more, including all the appliances and amenities. We were already talking about booking this house again for our next Florida vacation. Best stay yet!

This was a beautiful home. We had a large family and this was a perfect home to accommodate all of us. Was close to the Disney parks and then the pool and outdoor area was so comfortable. The home is well equipped with everything you would need. Having a large group the double refrigerators, dishwashers, and laundry were awesome. The homeowner communicated well and gave detailed information for our stay. We will definitely be back!!

13 of us met from 4 states to enjoy the holidays together and vacation at Universal and Disney. The house was perfect! Location and Amenities. We had beds to spare! There were plenty of places to congregate and the activities were great as well. We enjoyed the game room playing pool and air hockey. We used the Xbox to access movies on our netflix account. The pool/hot tub was the best. The weather cooperated and we spent most evenings in the pool. We didn't cook much, but the kitchen had a great variety of pots/pans/utensils to accomodate putting a meal together. 2 refrigerators and 2 dishwashers along with an upstairs and downstairs laundry was great. Everything was working, except the coffeemaker. One email to the management company a new one magically appeared within hours while we were at Disney. Thank you, Pat and Clive, for allowing us to relax and utilize your wonderful home. The Christmas trees were a touch of home. Thank you!!

This house was the perfect house for our family of 13: 8 adults (4-couples each with their own ensuite) 5 kids ages 7-16 (2-twin rooms and a queen upstairs) There is also 2 queens down that share a jack & jill (perfect for additional family guests visiting) We are expecting another arrival within the next month and will be planning another trip to Disney as soon as he is old enough. This is where we will stay. Pat Richardson, host/owner, has been extremely accommodating & responsive to our needs. OH, I did not mention the 2-refridgerators and 2-dishwashers in the kitchen. What an amenity. Having the pool for the kids to enjoy after a long day at the park is amazing. Thank You, Pat for sharing your lovely home!

This home exceeded my expectations! From the moment I pulled into the driveway I was blown away. The house was extremely clean and stocked with everything we could have needed for our large family vacation. Bath towels, pool towels, kitchen supplies, baby crib with sheets, monitors, gates for the stairs, you name it, they’ve got it! We vacationed as a large extended family of 15 between the ages of 2 and 66 and not once did we feel cramped or on top of each other. Having a dinning table to fit every single one of us at the same times was incredible for our nightly dinners. Before we even left the house we were planning our next stay. Communication between the owners and management company were seamless as well. Everyone was very accommodating and quick with their response to any emails. We look forward to our next stay in this beautiful home.

I recently stayed at this home for a week to celebrate my two kids and my cousin's birthday. The home was very well kept and clean, it felt like home! It was also very spacious for our crowd of 17. Everyone had their own space in house without feeling claustrophobic. The pool was an awesome amenity to have as well. We had intentions on going to resort's pool area but we enjoyed the convenience of the home's pool so much that we never made it. The owner was very efficient with responding to our needs even though he was an ocean away! One reminder for future guest though, even when the trash is not picked up by the contracted company when the trash bin is under the porch, just send the owner a message about it and you won't have any issues following. On our first day, our trash was not picked up and the company told us to bring the trash to curb. <--- Please do not do that. They are paid to come to the porch and dispose the trash! Overall, we had a great experience and are excited about planning our next trip to either this home or other properties that this owner owns.

Our new larger trash bin and improved community trash procedures has rectified any trash issues. Thank you for the review we hope you will stay again soon.

Wonderful house. Cleanliness was great. Great communication with owners. Great place to go to Disney and universal Game room and pool were great to have for the grandkids. We had 15 people who fit very comfortably. Only issue was with the complex which had garbage in the yards

I am so pleased you enjoyed our home - please note that the community are addressing the daily trash collection issues and new trash collectors are being appointed to improve the service to bring the community up to the standard we all expect. We hope you will choose to stay at one of our homes again in the future.

The home was big and spacious. Had everything we needed to enjoy our time and not really have to go any where. Most of my party couldn't make it but still had a great time and security guard at the gate was friendly and great. If there was any problems Sharon was there to assist.

When I first previewed the pictures of this home, I knew it was the home that my family would feel most comfortable in. Knowing me, I had to do my due diligence and research it further. After reading the reviews, my confidence of choice was reassured and after several emails with Pat, I knew that this house was it. Once we arrived on the premises and walked into the dwelling, I thanked God because it was picture perfect and EXACTLY, IF NOT MORE, THAN I EXPECTED!! The outside of the house is very nice. It has well maintained curb appeal and is fresh and inviting. But once you open that front door.... what a BEAUTIFUL home!!! The online pictures in no way do this house justice! It was meticulously immaculate and worthy of the white glove inspection. Every square foot of the interior decor was flawless. Everything that Pat promised to accommodate our special needs were on site waiting for us upon arrival. No detail was left unattended. Any question I had about anything whatsoever was immediately answered by the house manager who was an absolute doll. Our weeklong stay was far too short but so very meaningful and necessary. Our vacation (May 3-10, 2021), was planned to celebrate Cinco de Mayo, my 65th birthday, and Mother's Day under one roof with my adult children and grandchildren in attendance. Oh what a time we had!! The enormous dining room table was never empty. The lanai table was great for our seafood boil of crayfish, crab legs, lobster, clams, corn and potatoes. The two-shelved serving table outside was great for holding trays of food hot off the grill during our barbecues, and the kitchen island was fantastic when it came time for our huge, super-serious spread of Cinco De Mayo goodies in the way of nachos, salsa, cheeses, empanadas, and tortillas. The pool never got a break!! The grandchildren put on performances, played TikTok sibling challenges, and had an absolute blast in the game room. It was hard to drag the men away from the card and pool tables!! Each couple had designated alone nights in the spa which was unbelievably warm and relaxing under the soothing pool lights ~ and so romantic. I loved the fact that there was specific tableware and glasses for the pool area to prevent accidents. The house had every single thing you needed~DOUBLE!! The men even gave us "mud" facials with cucumber slices at poolside with our margaritas on our final day there!! And lest I forget the animals!!! The children thoroughly enjoyed the evening visits from the beautiful cows in the back! There was also a family of egrets that strolled the yard and neighborhood. The theme parks, mall, golf, and grocery stores were all in close proximity to the house which was another bonus. To wrap things up... I absolutely loved this home!!! I have not one single complaint about our stay there and will definitely be coming for a longer stay in the future. During the weekend, many were celebrating various milestones within their dwellings, but I have to say, I was quite impressed because by 9:30, 10:00... those celebrating turned down their outside music and everyone adhered to the rules of the community. Everyone was also very friendly, taking walks in the morning, stopping to say hello as paths were crossed, asking where we were golfing, wanting to be a foursome... We felt very safe. We visited the resort, which was fun and very nice.... but the icing on the cake was the house and the fun it provided within!!! Trust and believe. You won't regret picking this home as your vacation spot. When your departure day comes, I guarantee, you will not want to leave!! Trust and Believe!!!

My family and I very much enjoyed our stay at the South View Villa. The property was clean and we appreciated the extra steps the owners and management company took in providing additional COVID protections (disinfecting high traffic/high touch surfaces, extra cleaning of sheets/bedding, etc). While we only had 8 in our party, the house was more than spacious enough to comfortably accommodate many, many more. We loved the open floor plan of the first floor and the view of the sun and pool. Each room had a Roku TV which made it easy to enjoy whatever entertainment we were looking for -- music, TV, movies, etc. The house had it all -- including enough baby gear to make it so we didn't need the cartop carrier to haul our stuff! Pat was an extremely friendly and responsive owner and the management company was attentive (and even brought over additional grill items without us asking). We very much look forward to staying here again.
