| "Wonderful home, very clean and well maintained, had a fantastic vacation and played some wonderful golf courses. I would recommend to all,so much more than a hotel room and yet plety of room for socializing in. I have been in touch with regards to rebooking for next year, as the kids want to go to the new Harry Potter theme park at Universal.
Just one thing the pictures on the website do not show this home as well as it should, its so much better when you get there"

| "The villa is well appointed and furnished to our satisfaction. Plates, glasses, cutlery, etc and kitchen utensils provided are more than adequate for our use. However, air conditioning system in the villa did not perform well enough since we experienced periods of cold discomfort during rainy and cloudy days, although the caretaker did his utmost to rectify the situation."

We called the pool man to turn the pool heat down slightly as it was like a hot bath but to have it on for a little longer into the evening service was great he called round within 15 minutes of our call and reset everything for us. He also told us the best routs to take for Disney which turned out to be closer than we had expected. When we plan to return to Florida we will definatly contact you."

| "I am sorry to report that the first day we spend scrubbing and cleaning. The kitchen cupboards were full of crumbs, several frying pans had food residue, as shown to the care taker, and the outside lanai furniture was filthy as well and took my husband to scrub for several hours as I cleaned the interior. The highchair was full of old food as well.
The above statement is the only reason I would not recommend this property to my friends.
I dare say that we left the house in excellent shape, as we leave all the properties that we rent.
The value was good, for the amount of people we had there and indeed Disney was easily accesible, however I would suggest that the cleaning crew would be checked upon before guests arrive."

we wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed your fantastic home. It was absolutly wonderful so close to all the theme parks and shopping, our 2 weeks just flew by too fast. We were very surprised that we got more sun on your pool deck than homes with a lake view and were so glad that we booked your home instead as we had the sun from the morning through till sundown.
We have told all our friends and family about your home and will continue to recommend to anyone who wishes a fantastic vacation in florida.
Hope to be there again next year"

| "I brought a 21ft bass boat (my husband was fishing a national tournament that was televised on ESPN), and had some inital problems with parking. I was told that the boat was not permitted and I would have to park it at an unsecure location. The boat needed power each evening and had approximately $80,000 worth of equipment on it - it needed to be secure. So we bucked the system and parked in the driveway each evening until 5am - no one complained.
The parking is a problem if you have more than two vehicles.
The upstairs of the home was extremely hot, the thermostat was set on 78 degrees with outside temperatures exceeding 90 degrees. I phoned the on-site management, Bridget and she was very reluctant to change the thermostat. She indicated that she could only move it a degree or two and would need special permission for that. The upstairs was not comfortable for sleeping the first evening. The thermostat was changed to 75 degrees, however the masterbedroom upstairs was never comfortable.
I paid for the swimming pool to be heated and was not turned on until the third day of my stay.
The electrical outlets in the bathrooms did not work, so I was unable to use the hair dryer. I missed a scheduled dinner with my husband because I could not dry or style my hair in time.
I phoned Bridget and she sent someone over to check out the problem, but it was never addressed during our stay.
The ice machine on the refrigerator did not work and the man checking the electrical outlets took a look at it. Turns out the water was turned off. The next day we had plenty of ice and plenty of water that drained on the floor. Again, we phone Bridget and notified her that the refrigerator was draining water on the floor (a continuous flow) she said she would send someone. No one ever showed up and we turned the water off ourselves.
We had a package mailed to the address, however no one could help up to retrieve it. We never found out what happened to the package. It was mailed USPS.
Overall our experience was great and I would highly recommed the home to anyone."

the refund of the security deposit work? Will there

I can recommend this home to anyone thinking of a trip to florida"

We wanted to let you know how much we all enjoyed our holiday in your villa. We arrived after a long flight and found the villa very easily as your directions were excellant, on opening the front WOW we were very impressed and must say your pictures do not show the villa to its full advantage, the space was awsome and the pool area just fabulous. Lake Berkley itself was a great location and the bar onsite very good we met some very nice people there and had a few good nights there. All together a wonderful holiday, which we hope to repeat. We have told all our friends and family if they are thinking of a trip to Orlando they they should book your home
Thankyou

Any problems/issues we may have had where taken care of in lightning time. Your house care taker was wonderful. My grandchildren loved the master bath. They wanted to take a bath all the time. I would definitely recommend this house to my family & friends.
The only main down part was that the hot tub wasn't hot. I understand that we'd need to pay to have the pool heated. But I don't understand, if you advertise a hot tub, that the heating isn't included in the price for the house."

One thing the pool was a bit too warm for us but your MC came the morning we called and turned it down 2 degrees it was then perfect.
We have told all our friends if they want a great villa to book yours

We broght the entire family down (10 people) and everyone was more than satisfied. The entire Lake Berkley complex is outstanding from it's secure gated system to access to it's many features. Everything met or exceeded our expectations and ojnly wish we could have stayed for a whole month instead of just seven days. I would highly recommend this home to everyone I know. The savings between putting up ten people individually opposed to as a group was quite a savings too!"

We were pleasantly surprised at how close to Disney it was as we have rented in the past and been told less than 10min when it actually takes 20min, from this home it really was less than 10min. The men our party thank you for the info you provided on nearest Golf courses and they managed to enjoy 2 games and with the pool table in the games room they were more excited than the children.
We would highly recommend that anyone looking to rent a fabulous villa need look no further and JUST BOOK THIS ONE.
We all hope to be b ack again"

The furnishing were luxurious and the beds really comfy,but what really made our holiday was the huge pool deck and all the pool furniture, in most villas there are only 2 loungers and a table 4 chairs , in this one we had 4 loungers 2 reclining chairs 2 tables and 8 chairs, and a selection of floating chairs and lounger for in the pool. If you are looking for a fabulous villa in florida then stop looking and just book this one and have a great time"

"The refridgerator was broken, and we lost a good deal of food due to this, also the pool was cold until Monday when the refridgerator repair man came out and fixed it."
Owner reply:
:
On seeing this message I immediatly contacted my Management company who informed me that the fridge was and is working fine, but that it had been overfilled with food and drink and was perhaps because of this taking longer to chill. The pool temperture was checked for you and it was running at 87 degrees which is normal for this time of year, you stated it was not warm enough in the evenings , Mark reset the heating timer to 10.30pm told you if you had any further issues with it to call, when he heard nothing further he assumed the new settings were good for you.

>
> Firstly the resort is a gated community on the Highway 192, just sited behind "Medieval Times" Dinner Show and the 24 hour supermarket "Walmart". Local to all the attractions. Magic Kingdom and all the Disney parks; a 15 min drive away and Universal Studios/ Sea World and International Drive about 20 mins up one straight road. The resort is a collection of Lovely Villas and Newly built townhouses, built around a large lake. There is a Gazeebo which hosts private weddings, a park, tennis courts, two swimming pools and a poolside bar. Also a club house with internet connections, video games and pool tables.
>
> The Villa itself is out of this world, like a showhouse, I cannot stress how beautiful it is. There are two large living areas and a large kitchen with everything needed, all open plan with a lovely light and airy feel. The house is fully air-conditioned and has two double patio doors leading out into the pool area. The garage has bee made into a games room with everything needed for the kids and adults alike, Pool table, bikes, strollers, Playstation 2 and poker table, the house has wireless internet connection for laptops which was very handy. Also a utility room with washer and dryer.
>
> There is a communal bathroom downstairs and also one of the two Master Suites with a large en-suite bathroom and walk in closet, all tastefully decorated. Up stairs are the further six bedrooms and three further bathrooms, all spacious with closets and and unisex colours. Spotlessly clean with hairdryers installed.
>
> The pool area is massive, with adequate seating and sun loungers for all the guests. Oversized area around the pool makes all the difference and there is also a barbeque for those warm nights. The pool area gets the sun light all day and evening until it sets. The night time is lovely, no noise from anywhere.
>
> Our time spent in the "GlistenFloridaVilla.com" was like a taste of paradise where there is room for everyone and room for peace and quiet, we would highly recommend a stay there and after visiting villas in Florida over 20 times, we can say this is the best ever.... Book it!

Our vacation was aHuge success, and evryone had a ball, The villa far excedded our expectations and really was a home and much better value than staying in hotel. Big advantage was our own private pool & Spa especially after a hard day in the theme parks and the villa was so close to Disney we left the park in the afternoon had lunch and a swim then went back just in time for the parade at 3pm with the kids totally refreshed. We will certainly recommend your home to all our friends and family and will book with you again when we return to Florida.

The pool table was a huge bonus and the new basketball area was a hit with the kids, while the adults enjoyed a cold beer at the tikki bar. This resort just gets better and we hope to be back again next year"

"We had a wonderful time and I have already recommended to friends. It was quiet hot at night and I wish we could have adjusted the temp. Just a bit instead of having it under lock. Other than that our stay was wonderful, and we look forward to staying there again in the future. We thought the price was great for that many rooms for an entire week, it was much cheaper than renting hotel rooms for 16 people. The children loved the pool table and the pool. Us women loved the sidewalks in the resort where we could go on long walks. The men loved the fishing in the lake, but only got to go one day because the rest of the time we were at the parks, which was very close to us, which was great! "

We were there to celbrate Bill and Loretta's 50th wedding aniversary and they really appreciated the card and champagne you left for them. The villa exceeded out expectations and the pictures really do not show how nice it really is. It was wonderful to sit in the quiet by the pool with a cool drink and watch the sun go down. We will certainly recommend this home to anyone visiting florida."

The poll deck is huge and we all had a great time relaxing in the warm pool and hot spa after a day in the theme parks or shopping malls. We will definatly rent this home for our next trip and certainly recommend it to anyone who want a great vacation"

| "Good Day Elizabeth
I just wanted to pop you a quick note and thank you so much for the use of your lovely home.
We spent nine beautiful days basking in the Florida sun. As you know there were two chaperons, a coach and twelve swimmers. Every one of us loved the accommadations. The large kitch was perfect for preparing our meals for 15 and the large sectional in the family room accommodated everyone for team meetings.
I would also like to say that your onsite management, Bridgette was exceptional, she even came to our rescue when we managed to lock ourselves out of the house one night ! She was a wonderful, kind lady. You are lucky to have her.
I will definitely recommend your property to friends, family and collegues.
Thanks again Elizabeth

| "We had a wonderful stay at 1021 Lake Berkely Dr. Everything was clean and neat. We felt very welcomed when we walked in and saw the dining room table all set! The layout was perfect for our large family gathering. There were plenty of dishes, towels, blankets, sheets, pillows, etc. It was great having all the videos (although we didn't watch any!) and all the games (which we did play with). My only criticism is that the pool was not warm enough. Since we were there from Dec. 27-31, the weather was quite cool, although sunny. It would have been nicer if the pool could have been warmer and if the hot tub worked properly. Also, in the future, it might be helpful if you supply things like dishwasher detergent, dish soap, a sponge or 2, and garbage bags. One other minor thing -- we couldn't get the crib out of the downstairs master bedroom! So my little nephew ended up sleeping on the crib mattress in the twin-bedded room upstairs. This was not really a problem except that when he rolled off the mattress and found he was not confined to a crib, he got up to tell his parents all about it! One day that was at 4:30 a.m.! Anyway, we enjoyed your villa very much and would definitely recommend it to friends!"

We had rented villas in the past but yours was the best ever, the location was a dream as we did not have to drive far as all the theme parks we visited were within a 20 min drive as was the airport, and having a bar onsite with entertainment was a bonus we all enjoyed. As for the shopping we just ran out of time. My nephew had a great time fishing in the lake and he caught one, he has not stopped talking about it and we are all looking forward to returning next year."

"We had an execellent vacation. The villa did exceed our expectation. It is well mantained. This is the first time I rented a villa, I always used to stay in a timeshare resort due to that I work in one. However, this time we planned a family gathering and decided to stay all together and it was a big success. It gives you a feeling of being home away from home. We took my live-in maid (nanny) along, so the ladies had a vacation too when it came to cooking cleaning etc. We all had a great time and ejoyed the warm pool early in the mornig and late in the evening after visiting the parks. Especialy the kids had a blast.
One recommendatin for the Villas is to provide T.V. in all rooms;however, the kids were so entertained that they hardly had the time to watch t.v. Also to have one telephone upstairs in the master room.
I normally visit Orlando every other year and would definetly return back to this villa and would also highly recommend it to all my friends.
To the owner Elizabeth, who was very attentive, Thank you very much to rent us your beautifull villa."

Your direction from the airport to the villa were excellant we did not get lost once and your direction to Disney were also very good we did not get stuck in traffic once and you were right it did only take 10 min. This is by far the best home we have ever stayed in and we are trying to get other family members to rebook with us for next year Thank you so much for sharing your home with us"

"Dear Elizabeth
We all had a fabulous time in your home. It was great to relax by the pool after a hard day at the parks and watch the sun go down while having aglass of wine. The kids loved the pool and we could only get them out when we were going to parks and our youngest used the spa as her own private paddle pool. We will be recommending your home to all our freinds and family and will certainly book with you for our next trip to florida.
