Fabulous holiday in Florida

Southview is a lovely house, in picturesque surroundings looking out onto the lake. ideally located in Kissimmee, great for restaurants and a short drive to the parks. The property has everything you could possibly need for a family vacation, highly recommended. I hope to stay here again in the future. The owner of this property was a first class host and went beyond expectations to ensure my family had a fabulous experience staying there.

Best villa we have stayed in!

I could not find fault with this villa at all. The brand-new mattresses were very comfortable. The heated pool was perfect, and very much enjoyed by the kids. Overall it's the best villa we have stayed at, in and around the Kissimmee area. We look forward to returning and have already booked our next stay in this lovely villa.

Great location, plenty of space, pool major bonus!!

Check in was easy, Maddie was super attentive to all our needs. Location was perfect, convenient to grocery and close by to all the parks! The pool was a major plus after a long day at the park! Plenty of room for the family to spread out. Loved that there were two kids bedrooms and then the three king bedrooms. Would definitely stay there again if we go back to Orlando!

Immaculate home close to Disney for a fraction of the price!

We loved our stay here! The home was even more beautiful in person, the host provided excellent communication before and during our stay, and the teen boys loved the pool table. We all agreed the beds were super comfortable which is important after a long day in the Disney parks. The hot tub and master tub were also much appreciated by sore feet. We highly recommend this home!

What a beautiful home!

From the moment we booked to the moment we got back to the UK Maddie looked after us and made us feel so welcome. The house is beautiful, in a lovely, gated, tranquil community and has those gorgeous sunsets every day! If you want the convenience of being near the parks (and everything else Orlando has to offer) but appreciate a bit of time and space to unwind at the end of the day, I can’t see how you could do much better than this home.

Maggie is easy to work with and keeps you informed every step of the way. The house was perfect for a small family or several families. Loved having a hot tub to relax in after the parks. It heated up quickly and it was well over 100 degrees!

Perfect base, wonderful villa and a fantastic stay.

We had a great time - brilliant location: convenient for parks, shops and restaurants, very safe and secure. Only used the 3 double rooms as a party of 6 adults: lots of space and the beds were SUPER comfy…. All the mod-cons and facilities you could ever want in a villa, Maddie has thought of / provided everything - pool was lovely on our chill days, we even tried a bit of fishing in the beautiful lake but no luck 😝 Would definitely recommend Southview, our stay was perfect in every way and communication was excellent right from the very first message to the time we left. Thank you so so much Maddie, we had the best family holiday and your beautiful home was a big part of that - looking forward to rebooking for our next trip.

Fantastic Home and Great Location for Disney!

We absolutely loved our stay. Maddie was so communicative and fast with her responses if I had questions. The house is in a wonderful gated neighborhood. The location is perfect! So close to all the Disney parks. Only a 20 minute drive. Plus super close to grocery stores and many restaurants! Would rather stay here than any Disney resort anytime! Home is wonderfully accommodating with lots of space.

Great place!

Our group of eight retirees enjoyed our stay very much. Maddie (owner) responds quickly and is lovely to communicate with. Everything was clean and as-advertised. We found mid-stay that we wanted heat in the pool (extra charge), and we were there Sept 20-30, if that helps anyone else decide. Without the extra heat, it was ok for some, but a little too cool for others.

About the host

Hosted by Maddie Lock

Host profile image
Denis and I were married for nearly thirty nine years before he sadly passed away. We had two children, Suzanne and Robert. We had grown up together and family life was central to us both. I had been fortunate to be a stay-at-home mom and made it my mission to provide a loving home environment for us all; this is something which I am immensely proud of. I have now turned my attention to our home in Florida. Families play an important role in our lives and we hope this devotion has transcended into our stunning home in Florida. We are fortunate to call previous guests, friends, and for us this is what owning a home is all about. Communication is the key…it is not a blind transaction, we are here to make sure your stay is as pleasurable as possible. Trust is also a key feature.

Why they chose this property

Florida and families go hand-in-hand. There is no better place for us than the peaceful oasis of the upmarket gated community of Lake Berkley Resort. As soon as we visited the area we knew it was the place for us. It has so much to offer…tennis, basketball, volley ball, and much, much more. It is a wonderful place to take time-out to be with your children and family members. Our resort is so tranquil; a haven for wildlife and our newest addition is our fabulous community pool and splash area for adults and children alike! It is so central to all of Orlando’s attractions dining, shopping and much, much more.

What makes this property unique

Our home is sumptuously decorated, we believe we have created a real quality family environment, a home from home, a place where you can come together but still have areas to go off to if you so wish. An unusual feature of our home is our professionally installed stunning interior games room which we have lovingly decorated. Time and effort has been spent giving our home the attention to detail our guests expect. We are delighted to have created a quality environment for all to enjoy. Regular personal visits ensures that our home remains immaculate for ourselves and our visitors. We are confident it will exceed all your expectations of what a vocational rental home can and should offer.
