A luxury family home from home
This villa is amazing.Good location, easy to access of main road and clear signed routes to all parks.Cleaned on our arrival to a very high standard.Everything has been thought of for you to make your stay comfortable and hassle free. We had 4 children and used the laundry area daily. Bedrooms were very comfortable and welcomed after long days in the parks.Full kitchen area, with full utilities. Publix supermarket (like tesco but better) a few miles away. We used to stock up on the way home from parks in the evenings every few days.The pool and jacuzzi are excellent and safe. Tennis courts around the corner, we're fab. Kids loved having tournaments on the air hockey table. They used the bikes to cycle through the complex. Roads are very quiet and safe, great area for runners / power walkers to exercise. Everyone very friendly from neighbours,residents and security staff.The owners have a very informative villa manual, full of useful information. Maps, restaurants , takeaway food and useful telephone numbers. Free local calls from the villa phone.
No complaints at all, but beware of the USA sanitary sytems. The drainage pipes are smaller than at home, therefore flush toilets little and often to avoid problems.
We will most definitley return to this villa on our next trip to Florida. Thanks David and Darryl

99.9% satisfied
My family and I stayed in this property from March 29th - April 13th 2010.Our first time in a villa as we have stayed in Quality Inn and Enclave Suites along International Drive previous years. I am always slightly apprehensive before we arrive to a rental property. Can it be as nice as the images on the web site ?or has it been allowed to run down since they were taken? We were overwhelmed on arrival by the bright decor, comfortable furnishings and utilities available to us. The rooms were cleaned to a high standard and all linen / towels were good quality. Using the villa's beach towels saved us $25 per day in the waterparks ! The laundry room was a fabulous asset, no suitcases full of dirty washing to bring home! We are a family of 6, so it was a busy villa for the duration. The children always had plenty to occupy themselves, with the games room, pool,TV, tennis courts etc (rackets provided). I am a runner, and the complex had a 1.5m stretch of road running alongside the golf course which was safe (behind security gates)and virtually traffic free. The wildlife was unusual , I saw several snapper turtles crossing the roads on a morning, few armadillos, some lovely birds .On occasion one of the family would cycle out with me using the bikes from the villa.Wonderful start to the day. Everyone is so friendly in Florida in general, and Ridgewood Lakes was no exception. I have no gripes but if I must find a negative. Would have liked some basic cleaning products and bin liners leaving to spruce up after ourselves now and again without having to buy and leave them. Also the sewage system needs managing carefully as the pipes are narrower than in the UK. Not a lot the owners can do about that one. The owners are very good at responding to any emails/queries promptly.
Overall, a home from home with added sunshine. Loved the whole villa experience and will be returing, and recommending to our friends.

awesome house
Having recently stayed at this home i can truly say it was a home away from home just with better weather,a pool and spa. oh and the fun of the US. From arriving after a long day of travel, i was greated with a large relaxing shower and a huge four poster bed that if my case would allow i would have taken in a shot. The home was superb in every aspect from cleanliness to the facilities and feel, real thought had gone into making this home different from others i have stayed in before, it had all the small personal touches you would wish for. Large TV for not only the kids but adults who loves sports with HD on demand. Heated pool and spa at a perfect temperature for my morning swim, to pay off the big meal from the night before. The bikes in the garage tennis rackets for the local courts, toys for the pool and of course air hockey table. It was fantastic in every way and if you hadnt guessed i would recommended it to anyone. I only wish i could have stayed longer or i lived there full time, well role on next spring as i shall be booking up soon, once the credit card has been paid off.

Best Place Ever!!!
In the 6 years that we have rented a villa in Florida this has got to be the nicest in terms or area and the actual villa. Here are the things we LOVED about this place:
- very clean and very modernly decorated
- cozy and comfy living room and beds
- large screen TV in main room and tv's in each of the bedrooms
- pool & spa to relax in and large and private backyard
- 4 tennis courts to play on
- golf near by
- bikes to ride
- lots of books and magazines to read
- south facing pool and lots of towels
- 4 comfortable and beautiful loungers
- gas bbq
- fully equipped kitchen
- quiet, safe, manicured and friendly neighbourhood
Really can't say enough about this place. Only thing we could think to add would be a pool table.
We hope to be back next year!!!
