Going to Florida? Better to Rent a Villa!

By: John Macrea

Villa rentals in Florida are getting more and more popular as family accommodation for people visiting the world's number one vacation destination. This is not surprising since villa rentals are like a home away from home. Villas in Florida (not to confuse with condos) are ordinary family homes with 3, 4 or more bedrooms. Usually, it includes a kitchen, a pool, a family room and separate dining area, a garage, laundry and more facilities.

Benefits of a Florida villa rental.

The benefits of a Florida villa rental are huge. Normally, Florida Villa Rentals are priced at the same or much less than a Disney Resort room! That said, they are often so close to Disney that you can see the nightly fireworks from the pool deck! They certainly have much more space than the average resort hotel room! That's space that allows a family to spread out and have their own personal space. Much more than that, a Florida villa rental has its own pool to enjoy in private.

Another advantage of renting a villa in Florida is the fully equipped kitchen available. By having the means at hand, it is easy to prepare special meals for babies and small children, which is usually a hassle when dining out. And drinks and lunch packages can be prepared and chilled for taking to the parks. Meals and drinks in the parks are very expensive and you could save several hundreds of dollars per week by preparing it in your villa rental.

Furthermore, a great benefit of renting a villa in Florida is the free internet access that often is thrown in. Guests can keep in touch with the office if necessary without the extra costs. Hotels often charge $10 or more per day for access.

How to choose the right villa out of so many offers?

When you start looking for Florida villa rentals, there are a few things to bear in mind.
First of all, look out for someone that deals only with private villa owners who do not rent to wholesalers. Many villas are rented through management agencies to large holiday companies from all over the world. These companies pay low rates to the villa owners (but charge high rates to clients). This means that the villas get heavy traffic without the income to maintain them to a good standard.

Secondly, check when the photos were last updated. Often they are never updated at all since the villa was brand new. If you can see recent photos, it will help you to see what you get and prevent disappointments upon arrival. Note here that a brand new villa is not always the best choice. More established neighborhoods are friendlier and mature.

Thirdly do not pick your rental by the number of bedrooms. Bigger villas are not necessarily more expensive. Some villa owners will allow smaller families to stay at a reduced price reflecting the number of rooms used. This means that you can enjoy more luxury in your villa for less.

And last but not least, don’t forget to ask if the rental owner can offer reduced price tickets for the attractions. Many private Florida vacation rental villa owners do also special incentives like delivery of tickets to your villa after you arrive.

On total, there are many advantages of staying at a Florida villa rental. The villas are excellent value for money, provide lot of space for guests to have some privacy and be at ease and offer a full array of facilities. Once you have spent a vacation in a Florida villa rental, you will never want to go on a hotel vacation again.
