Windsor Palms Florida - Frequently Asked Questions  
             
Why should I choose a Windsor Palms home and not a hotel?

Where do we start? The location is incredible, just 2.5miles from Disney, 5minutes from I4, and 35mins from Orlando International Airport. The 24hr security gated resort itself is mesmerizing, with more than 3acres of beautifully landscaped grounds and an abundance of 1st class amenities. Windsor Palms also contains some of the most luxurious vacation homes, town homes and condos in the area. Hotels in the Disney area can be very expensive; in fact you will probably pay the same price for one person as you would for the entire home up to 10 people! In addition you are not just in one room, you have individual lounge, dining area, kitchen, bedrooms. If you wish to meet with other guests you've also got all the resort amenities to share. A perfect solution to all your holiday needs.

Is the pool home, townhouse or condo that I’m viewing on your website, the one I will actually get?
Yes, what you see is what you get. This website has been compiled using homes owned by Private Families just like yours. We are unlike regular commercial agencies that can place you anywhere they see fit, so rest assured your contract will be direct with the private home owner as we want you to be happy with your vacation rental home before you book.
Most homes also have a Virtual Tour so you can see in advance exactly what you are renting by viewing inside each room.

Is this a time share offer?
Absolutely not. The homes and condos shown on this website are owned by individuals. You are not in any way required to sit through a presentation, instead, you just sit back and enjoy your vacation rental home without any outside interference.

What is required to make a reservation?
When you locate the house of your choice, you can book on-line directly with the owner, or simply by telephone them using the owner contact details displayed with that property.
