Steve,

This is just a quick note to tell you how much we enjoyed our stay at Lakeside Haven. The villa was very comfortable and relaxing after long days at the park. This was my fourth trip to Disney in four years, and I have stayed at both Disney hotels and Kissimmee condos. This was the first time I left a place saying that I would stay there again. Everything was clean and exactly as stated on your web page. The information and directions you provided were much appreciated and very accurate. I look forward to another possible stay in October.

Again, thanks for your help and for the use of your villa.

Sincerely, Lauren Pfister

Thank you very much for the quick return of our security deposit. We want to tell you how much we enjoyed the vacation home. The home was exactly as shown in the pictures. The home was clean, nicely decorated and had everything we needed for the week. The screened in pool and spa was fantastic (my kids loved it) I am recommending your homes to anyone who asks and we will definitely rent from you again in  the future.
Sincerely,
Susan Casey
JUST TO DROP A LINE TO SAY MANY THANKS FOR THE USE OF YOUR VILLA OVER THE LAST 2 WEEKS.  THIS IS OUR 10TH VISIT IN 20 YEARS TO KISSIMMEE AND WOULD YOU BELIEVE WE WERE THE VERY FIRST TO RENT A VILLA WHEN WINDWARD CAY WAS BUILT IN 1991. WE HAVE STAYED IN MUCH BIGGER AND  GRANDER  VILLAS THAN THIS OVER THE YEARS AS WE HAVE ALWAYS GONE WITH FRIENDS OR FAMILY BUT THIS TIME IT WAS JUST THE 2 OF US ,AND WE CAN SAY WITH OUT QUESTION THIS WAS THE MOST PERFECT VILLA TO JUST CHILL, THE MOST  PEACE FULL. AND WITH  THE BEST VIEWS ANYWHERE IN KISSIMMEE, JUST THE MOST PERFECT PLACE, WE JUST DID NOT WANT TO COME HOME .WE WILL CERTAINLY BOOK AGAIN IF YOU STILL HAVE IT, AND IF WE CAN MANAGE ANOTHER TRIP NEXT YEAR.
ONCE AGAIN MANY THANKS. KIM AND PETER BUDD.
Dear Liz and Steve,
 
We had a wonderful holiday and the weather in Florida (87F) was really better as in Brunssum Netherlands (8c).
Your villa was one of the better one´s and was well equip, everything was thoughtful arranged and we had a wonderful stay.
Your little library was also helpful (Book of Florida, maps etc.) Seems You guy´s thought about everything. If someone want to go to Florida Orlando-Kissimmee We will spread the word and advise them to You.

Hi Liz  Just thought I would e-mail and tell you that we are having a great chill out holiday in your lovely villa. Just what the doctor ordered before we have to make some radical changes in our lives when we get back to the UK. Harry still hasn't had any luck with a job!!! We have met Lynn and Gerry, lovely couple. Gerry was over yesterday and stayed for about an hour and we had a great natter and good laugh. We have also met Jim and Judy next door who are also great to get on with. It makes for a great holiday when you meet lovely people. The weather isn't good !!!! Can't believe it's rained so much and it looks like it's on for the rest of the week too. Question for you? Where did you buy the weather clock on the patio outside? We would love one for our conservatory (although we don't know how long we have that for!). We have looked everywhere for one but we have segs on eyeballs and have had no luck so far. Perhaps you could shed some light on it for us. Cheerio for now   Irene
Hi Liz & Steve,
 
many thanks for the cheque refunding the security deposit.
 
yes we had a great time, Windward Cay is an ideal location for visiting the attractions.
it did become rather warm, we were not expecting it to get to 94, but at least the forecast thunderstorms did not happen.
yes, an excellent holiday and we now know somewhere where we can stay in future visits and  one we can recomend to friends and family

best regards

Liz, I want to let you know we had a wonderful time at your villa. It is a very comfortable home. It was nice to be able to come home after a day in the parks and the beach and relax in the very peaceful neighborhood. The house is well maintained and very clean. Lynne and Gerry are very nice and gave us some great information about restaurants in the area and directions to the parks. We look forward to going to Kissimmee again in the future and I will definitely keep your villa in mind as a place to stay. Thank you again. Fred and Phyllis Egan
Hi Liz,
Thanks for the returned deposit, we had a absolutely lovely stay, my children and I enjoyed the Disney parks and the lovely pool was fantastic to go back to, in fact both children (5 and 3) preferred the pool to Disney! My parents didn't go the parks, but they loved the local state parks especially Blue Spring State Park where they saw the manatees.  The house is lovely and comfortable and the abundant quantity of towels and kitchen crockery made the trip so nice.  The location is fantastic as you feel like you are in a different world to the 192, its so quiet and peaceful.  Also the property managers are so helpful, lots of help on Disney and other places, even loaned me some children's DVD's, absolutely fabulous.
 
We did have a couple of problems with the internet, wouldn't work for a while but eventually logged onto an unsecured network, it didn't have your network name or require a password.
 
We hope to be back sometime! 
Take Care and thanks again.

Hi Liz,
 
Many thanks for the fast return of the security deposit.
 
I would like to thank you and the family that look after your villas as we had a lovely holiday. The villa was spotlessly clean and I the only thing that we thought was missing was a bread bin or do Americans not use them? But apart from that tiny detail we thought everything was great!
 
I will definitely use one of your villas in the future and have recommended you to my family.
 
Thanks again and I hope you have a lovely christmas.

Hi Liz, Hope you are well. It was great to stay at your villa. We enjoyed it very much, mainly the great location. We were running every day to a differant park, so we could npt enjoy it more ... hope to be able to come again in the following years, to be able to spend more time. Thank you, Ehud Spektor.
Hi Liz, I want to thank you for let us stay at your excellent villa. My family don't stop talking about this vacation especially the villa. We found there everything we need and the place is very nice & clean. I will recommend that to all my friends and family and I wish to return to the villa for another vacation. Thanks again and keep maintain it in high quality. Best Regards Onunu Family

Dear Liz and Steve,
Many Thanks for returning our deposit. We had a lovely time relaxing and enjoying the view around the pool.
I would just like to say that your new management company are fantastic! . We noticed the difference as soon as we walked through the door, the house and garden were immaculate. They are`re in constant contact making sure everything is ok etc and nothing is to much for them unlike the last company.
We look forward to staying at lakeside again in the future.
Thanks again

Hello Liz- First off, I must tell you that your place is wonderful! What a pleasant time there...so much so that we are talking about returning next year, hopefully for 3 weeks! Hoping your final assessment leaves our deposit intact, could that be applied to another booking? I will be checking my calendar and submitting a booking in the next few days. Once again-this was a truly great place...which made for a wonderful vacation. Now..I have to return to frigid weather and SNOW! Yours truly, Bob Jaquay
Hi Liz, Just a little note to let you know that your holiday home Lakeside Haven was wonderful. We had a great holiday. the boys loved the swimming pool so much that they didn't want to go out to the parks. The weather was marvellous just like the steaks at the Outback (thanks for the tip off). Kind regards, Lorraine, Mark, Matthew & Daniel
Liz, Just writing to compliment you on the excellent facilities you provided for us in Kissimee. the little extras like the play station, movie library were a real bonus. Thanks Kenton
Hi Liz,
 Your villa was fantastic .... I think you have thought of everything to make your guests visits like a
 home from home and I will certainly recommend  it to friends and family.
 Cheers and thanks again.

I would just like to thank you and tell you that we thought your home was excellent. on our arrival it was spotless, the home and its location were excellent. we could not think of anything that could be improved upon. my brother in law who lives in Washington called in on us and he was so impressed he took your details with a view to renting it himself in the future. I will certainly be recommending it to any friends who may be considering a visit to Florida. it really was home from home and we all felt very comfortable from the minute we arrived. The directions were excellent and we found our way without any problems. we have had a wonderful family holiday and it was the standard of your home that was the icing on the cake. should any of your future clients wish to get an independent opinion of your property please feel free to pass on my details. I would only be to happy to sing my praises. once again all I can say is thank you John
Hi Liz,

A belated note to thank you for the use of your beautiful home. It is certainly the best home we have stayed in so far with excellent facilities and utensils.

I hope everything was ok when we left although I think I might have left my sons pants and socks in one of the draws. (Don't know how that happened but they're definately missing). They're not that important anyway.

I shall certainly recommend you to friends and thank you once again.

Dear Liz - we have had a wonderful time - the villa was so comfortable and peacefull - wonderful bed - I didn't want to get up in the morning - there was eveything we could have wanted - the pool was superb and wonderful bird watching - lots of hawks and kites as well as herons and our best view of wood peckers and jays!  I'd recommend your villa to anyone without reservation - a haven off the dreadful 192! Many thanks Liz and for being so efficient with the logistics - kind regards Fiona
Hi Steve,
 
We all had a fantastic time at Lakeside Haven, this is certainly the location location location and the out look onto the lake and the seclusion but the way of subtle planting was fantastic.  We have stayed at many villas along the 27 and the 192 but this is by far the best we have stayed in.
 
My father had a problem with the car and Lynne and Gerry could not do more to help, they are truly an asset to your rental and what lovely people they are.
 
We would defiantly rent out the villa again and have given you web address to freinds and family.
 
 
Thanks again it was a true home from home.

Hi Steve

We had GREAT GREAT time in your wonderful house. It was our fourth time in Orlando, each time a different house, but yours is the best ! The pool area is very pleasant, a lot of furnitures in the kitchen, really near parks and outlets. And Homar Villas are efficient : I called them because of wasps nests at the front door, and they were there in less than 30 mn.

Thanks a lot !!!

Best regards

Stephanie
