Lovely Villa in quiet area to relax, with great views over golf complex. Villa itself was clean, great facilities and friendly neighbours.

20 minutes from Disnay parks. Owners gave great advise on local restaurants

Family from Hemel Hempstead, United Kingdom May 2022

I couldn't recommend this villa highly enough. It was very clean, well equipped, beautiful view of a golf course, lovely pool and close to the parks and restaurants. Everything we could have hoped for. The communication was excellent, we were given lots of information which helped us with everything from estas to park info and recommendations on eating out. We are looking forward to coming back soon.

ORLANDO JOY REVIEW HIGHLAND RESERVE. (5 Stars) Well located beautiful villa . Good location for all parks and shopping . All bedrooms well portioned including televisions and the villa also had a tv/video/dvd entertainment room . The garage had full size pool table and many other games. The Villa was clean light and airy best part being the bedroom balcony overlooking the golf course. Would recommend this villa to all. We all had a pleasant and enjoyable stay, would hopefully like to return soon.

David Maher Jun 2019

ORLANDO JOY EXPERIENCE (5 Stars) We found the entire experience a very pleasant one, from the moment we enquired about the availability to the actual stay. The descriptions are very accurate, with a quiet and friendly neighborhood. Great facilities, well positioned to access the parks and beaches. We would recommend this villa to our friends and family,

Valerie Baxter Apr 2019

CLEAN AND COMFORTABLE (5 Stars) impressive with lovely views of the golf course. We very much enjoyed staying in this great home from home and were sad to leave it.

Richard Gentry Feb 2019

VERY COMFORTABLE AND CLEAN (5 stars) Had a very pleasant stay. House was well equipped and very comfortable.

Kathleen Destin Dec 2018

COMFORTABLE AND WELCOMING. (4 stars) Everything was great and owners were sweet just little privacy due to golf course in the back.

Majella Beattle May 2018

ABSOLUTELY STUNNING VILLA (5 Stars). Highland Reserve is well situated for the 192 or the I4. It is mostly residential and the Villa Joy has an impressive view of the 6th hole. The villa is open plan, encompassing kitchen, living room and dinning area. All of which are relaxing, comfortable and have very good furniture The bedroom have all got flat screen tv. Bedding lovely and all of excellent size. Plenty of cupboard space and well equipped. I would highly recommend this Villa and look forward to our next stay.

Martin Bruck May 2018

VILLA ORLANDO JOY WAS A GREAT PL;ACE TO STAY AND ADDED VALUE TO OUR HOLIDAY.(5 Stars) Plenty of room for our Adult family party. Easy access to all amenities including parks, resorts, shops, restaurants and supermarkets. Villa had everything we needed and provided an excellent home away from home for our holiday accommodation.

Sandra Gignac Feb 2018

LOT OF SPACE FOR FAMILY OR FRIENDS VISITING (3 Stars) House is in a quiet neighbourhood surrounded by a golf course. Close to Disney without being in the middle of the tourist area. Close to grocery, couple of good resturants that are just a good walk if you desire. This was our third year dealing with the management and the owner. Some things that were a concern over the time we have rented were dealt with. The pool is always maintained. We have recommended to some people that they rent from the same owner, we do hope they are satisfied as we have been.

David Fleet Feb 2018

GREAT GOLFING LOCATION (4 Stars) Pool area can be noisy when golf course is busy. Straight forward journey from the airport and access to the property logically simple. Limited dining options nearby but Publicx supermarket is in walking distance. We slept in the downstairs bedroom which was fairly comfortable but the bed was very noisy. Good kitchen and utility room both well equipped. Upstairs master bedroom a lot better but very warm, villa policy to keep air conditioning at 78 meant we were always hot. OWNER RESPONSE We set our air conditioning for 78 degrees, which is the recommended temperature by the utility supplier and in line with Government guide lines, however we allow our guest to lower this by up to 3 degrees.

Bart Simonis Jun 2017

5 Stars. We have just returned from 14 days at Orlando Joy situated within the Highlands Reserve. Overall the accommodation was perfect in almost every department. It was very much a home from home. Rooms were all very spacious with copious amounts of cupboard space provided to unpack. The ration of rooms to bathrooms/showers was perfect and the showers were great. The master bedroom has a magnificent veranda which overlooks the 6th tee. All rooms have flat screen TVs and there was even a separate Cinema room with a massive screen with a great selection of DVDs to choose from. Perhaps maybe a few more kids choices would have been more of benefit to our group but a good selection none the less. Great space throughout the Villa to relax and unwind after long hot days at the various nearby attractions. The Disney parks were a short drive (15mins) and Universal (apx 25mins) The pool was great and just what our party needed. The kids loved it and were in it all the time. The pool is surrounded by a safety fence which was ideal given our smallest party member was at that age where you can't let out your sight so it was a good peace of mind. The kitchen was of good standard and the ice machine in the freezer was a great help. The kitchen is left completely empty so it is perhaps an idea to bring your own kit of essentials such as dish cloths, tea towels and cleaning liquids to get you started. We found this out to our detriment as we stopped off st the shops prior to arriving at the Villa to find we had to go back out again. Our party would also have benefited from a child's high chair as none was provided. The house has A/C which was perfect to come home to after long hot days. The house is managed locally by a private company who were excellent and responded to any questions we had very quickly. We had access to a supermarket, pub and various restaurants all within walking distance. We had dinner at Applebee's and breakfast at IHOP both were excellent and would recommend. Overall we would highly recommend this Villa it is really lovely, spacious and comfortable which helped make our holiday a memorable one! If we ever manage to get back over we would have no hesitation about trying to book this Villa again.

Poorman Family Dec 2016

Brilliant place to stay would recommend it and definitely use it again. Really nice to meet the owners which was a bonus for us, So sad to leave, Had a fantastic holiday.

Freda and Ken Heaton Jul 2016

The villa was even more impressive than the photo's on the web site. (5 Stars) It certainly was a luxury villa with everything needed for a great holiday. The location is excellent for both theme parks and shopping with Publix supermarket and eating out places within a minutes ride. Would definitely recommend this villa to friends and family.

cournoyer, Pasbrig & Olson Familes Jun 2016

Heatwave was smothered by having a nice pool, Golf course was a nice surprise. WiFi greatly appreciated. Everyone had a private room. Had to report leaky plumbing service guys came straight away. Very homely much better than the time shares we've used in the past. Well worth the $$ and so convenient to get to all the attractions. Great mall on South 27. Pool toys were great for the kids.

Davina Goble Jun 2016

Brilliant 2 weeks away. All the little extras really made it a home from home especially as we travelled with a 6month old. The kids and adults appreciated the pool, location is fantastic too. Wi-Fi was also great to keep in touch with home.

Hewitt & Townley Families May 2016

We had a fantastic 2 weeks, the villa was great "Home from Home" great location and surroundings, although not impressed by the Golf Club cutting the lawn at 4.50. The highlight for the children was the pool. Thank you.

Susan & Brian Lonsdale May 2016

Very enjoyable week, after a week on Marco Island. This is a very good villa with no problems whatsoever. Appleby's good place to eat. Wi-Fi a delight. went to Magic Kingdom, Universal, Garland and Mont Dora by Sea plane. As I said good villa as opposed to the one we rented through Marco Island Vacation properties where we had numerous problems

Tracy Kimmons Apr 2016

A beautiful villa and a lovely time had by all. We will be back. Thank you.

John & Sandra Gignac Feb 2016

My wife and I are a retired couple who fell in love with the Highlands Reserve at Davenport and purchased our first house/villa on the Highlands Reserve in 2011. We visit our house/villa normally twice a year for 6 - 7 weeks at a time. We have an excellent management company who take care of our property and our guests for us. If guests wish to contact us directly either by phone or email we endeavour to answer the same day. Both we and our management company do our utmost to make our guests feel welcome so they are able to go out, enjoy themselves and come home to relax after a busy day. The Highlands Reserve has a wonderful reputation, clean, peaceful with good facilities and excellent location to get to all the Internationally known theme park and entertainment etc, Disneyworld is just 12 – 15 minutes away The advantages of the Highlands Reserve are numerous apart from it being a prestigious championship 18 hole (par 72) golf course (rated 3.5, Stars by Golf Digest's) with Tennis courts, large communal swimming pool and children’s play park. We immediately fell in love with the place you do not have to be a golfer to stay on the Highlands Reserve.
