Owner profile
About the owner
The property is owned by my wife and I. We live in Wiltshire, UK and we have four children. We bought the property as a place we can use ourselves as a central base for enjoying all the nearby theme parks (our favorite is Busch Gardens in Tampa!). Last time we stayed there, there were 8 in our party and we had an absolutely brilliant holiday. We also let the apartment out to guests when we are not staying there ourselves.
Year purchased: 2006
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
The apartment is in one of the very best locations within Bahama Bay. We like to be within easy walking distance of all the main amenities, but I like peace and quiet at night. Our apartment gives us both these. It has plenty of WOW factor and the feedback I have received from other guests has been 100% positive.
