Great place to stay in Mount Dora

We loved the Mermaid bungalow. Just as pictured. Location perfect for Mount Dora activities. Our doggies loved the backyard as we did. Nice place to sit out and enjoy the fresh air. We did have a few issues, but the host and staff were very responsive.

Absolutely perfect two bedroom home me nestled in the heart of historic Mount Dora. The house is outfitted with all you need in the kitchen, bathroom and outdoor living space. We stayed two nights and I wish we had booked for a week. Home away from home!

My wife and I are both in the real estate industry and own a brokerage firm in Orlando, FL named Kona Realty Services. We are both graduates from the University of Central Florida and have three great kids. We work hard and play hard and this cabin/bungalow are the most relaxing places we know. We get to visit several times a year and enjoy snowboarding, fishing and just relaxing.
Steve Perez purchased this Cabin in 2004 and the Mt Dora Cozy Bungalow in 2020 along with The Conch house, Mermaid Cottage, Tiki Hut and Pink House.
