POOL HEATING IS AVAILABLE AT ADDITIONAL NIGHTLY RATE. PLEASE ASK FOR DETAILS.
Seating for 8 guests round table..and sun loungers and beds.
THE POOL AREA TOTALLY PRIVATE NOT OVERLOOKED AT ALL GET SUN ALL DAY LONG!!!
The kitchen is very well equipped, and the morning room has a large dining table.
Games room.has a variety of games..foosball..pool table..darts.
The utility room.house washing machine and tumble dryer for guest use
Little Mermaid villa.orlando is based on a private gated community that is manned 24 7 .
A beautifully maintained community..it can only be accessed via electric gates (passes will be issued on arrival)
The lake on the community is vast and accessible via boating ramp..where you can fish the evening away courtesy of the fishing rods left by a fishing enthusiast husband!.
The villa.is set on what can be described as a cake wedge...2000 sq ft villa with villas either side set in a way that they do not intrude on the pool area at all.
You can enjoy the pool day and evening without anyone looking in from anywhere.
Locally, there is an abundance of places to eat..plus supermarkets. Also the new shopping park is home to.many many stores...so.whilst you shop you can also stop for a coffee at Costa etc!
We are not just on the interstate route to the parks.. we are also on a fantastic route to all national parks and areas of interest where no mouse ears nor hulk people dare venture.
The nature side of the area is to behold. It's so nice..guests have been known to take a day out visit circle B take a bbq hamper..do a walk along side the alligators wild boar etc..return to the picnic area fire up the charcoal and enjoy an outdoor bbq feast. So many do not realise exactly what the area in a 35-mile radius ( for example) offers guests staying at our villa . Venture a further 45.miles, and you're by Clearwater Beach tampa.st Pete's cocoa beach cape Canaveral and so many more.
A villa can be 10 minutes from a park but you can be stuck in traffic for 30 minutes..but beauty staying on tower lake is you drive to top of road..turn right onto interstate four and that's it..a large interstate..one road..three exits down..and that's the disney turn off..this takes you to every single.disney park downtown disney springs typhoon lagoon etc. One road..all.parks are off that exit. So stress free.
Some stay away from main parks preferring to do legoland..suitable for 11s and under we are told...also that route you have book tower..circle b etc.

EXCELLENT POOL AND HOT TUB
The house is located on a quiet gated community. We stayed over Christmas and paid extra for pool and hot tub heating. An excellent choice, the hot tub was separately heated and got really hot. Really appreciated in the cool Orlando weather. We ate out mostly but the kitchen seemed to have ample utensils. Usual american style washing machine and dryer. Could have had a starter pack of laundry gel but no great issue. Two spacious master bedrooms and a third shared by the other 2 bedrooms. Wifi worked well and a large TV in the main room. Overall excellent
Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2023

Excellent five star villa
Booked last minute for 4 night stay. Honestly did not expect the villa to be as lovely as it is. The owner really has put time and effort I to the home SPOTLESSLY clean also Most than enough space for the 6 if us. The owner John very helpful..even ringing to ensure all was ok..then followed up with a safe journey home email So many nice touches in this villa Fantastic value for money You get what you pay for when booking a villa and this one is so well well worth the money. We could have paid less (like our travel companions did..and they were upset with their villa) We got excellent value for money and will be looking to book again soon Thank you John for your excellent service and beautifully maintained home

THE SMITHS FAMILY STAY!
Fantastic is all i can say Villa SPOTLESSLY clean Location Just Right Community was private gated and a bonus Pool sparkling Spa nice and warm No one overlooking pool area meant we were not subjected to anyone else's holiday The villa had all we needed and more The owners a delight and were so helpful We have stated other villas in past 13 years and this one is the best one we have used The owners take pride in the villa and you can tell. From the decor to the bedding to the furniture it is all top condition. They told us they visit the villa at least twice a year to keep the place pristine..and you can tell. We are going back 2020..to same villa. That says it all

Lovely family sized villa, in an ideal location.
Had a lovely relaxing holiday in the Mermaid Villa. The villa is full of little extras to help with the holiday. The pool was lovely and clean, not overlooked. The owners were very helpful and responded to queries very fast in a friendly manner. Had an amazing time and would certainly book this villa again with no hesitation. Thank you John & Julie for sharing your lovely home xx

About the host

Hosted by JOHN FEARNEHOUGH

Host profile image
Born and living in the UK I am the owner of Little Mermaid Villa. As a busy self employed plasterer I enjoy getting away on holiday to the villa with my wife and family when possible...enjoying the break whatever time of year.
I have grown to love Orlando over the past 11 years of visiting and always there is something new to see and do.
My hobby when I get time is fishing and I enjoy the mornings I spend fishing at the lake on the community..while waiting for the family to get up and ready for the forth comming day of enjoyment.
I am married to Julie with one son, three daughters. Now we have the pleasure of grandchildren all of who visit the villa
Best thing is they call it Nanny's Villa...and they love it.
That is what it is all about..holidays with children making memories
Also holiday without the children still make memories!!

Why they chose this property

The area is so handy for everything...parks 15 to 25 minutes away with Busch gardens just down the interstate four ..also direct roads to Clearwater St pete's and Tampa...driving is so easy and the location of the villa means no traffic jams and easy to navigate highways.
After looking at villas for what seemed an eternity I came across this community and made it my business to visit the site while building work was under way..I cannot help it being in the building trade!
The location is ideal for where ever you want to go..you enter the community through gates to view a large lake on the right then you travel up the small quiet roads to the villa which is situated within its own grounds and is not overlooked at all..we have a large lawn behind our villa which is a bonus guest tell me

What makes this property unique

The villa is equipped to the highest standrds and caters for all needs. Tastefully furnished with a fully equpped kitchen. All bedrooms have televivions plus the three bathrooms have ample supplies of towels. Also provided are hair driers for those who need to use them [which are all on american voltage so you do not need to pack own] A cot and highchair are also provided if required
The villa has also had adaptations for diabled use..grab bars in main shower, with shower seat when needed plus all entrances to villa are slopong so a wheelchair can access the villa without problems..also the doorways are marger to accomodate wheelchairs. We also offer details of hoist hire if required.
The villa is situated on a gated community totally private . Sun shines over the pool area all day long and once visited am sure you will want to return..as many guests do!
