Oasis At The Ruiz's - Come Relax, Have Fun, Or Enjoy The Arcade

You will love our newly remodeled home. We wanted to have the modern updates but keep that wonderful charm that made us fall in love with this town. Cozy up in our living room to watch a movie, or a favorite show on the 50 inch Roku TV, or enjoy a good read in the comfort of a reading area in 1 of our 2 spacious bedrooms. Our updated kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need. The bathroom has a wonderful spacious shower with complimentary shampoo/conditioner, body wash, and a few extra essentials just in case you're in need. You will have the option of a night in and BBQ enjoy the sitting area and having a cold beverage. Listen to music on our Bluetooth Rock Speakers. This house is just minutes away from Downtown with plenty of places to eat a wonderful little shops. You can also enjoy great Eatery, Bar & Grill and even Antique shopping just 5 blocks away. You can take a morning walk around this lovely quiet neighborhood and listen to the sounds of nature. You will love your stay. Unfortunately, due to allergies, we are no longer a pet stay property. There will be an automatic $100 fee for a deep cleaning. Thank you for your understanding.

We had a wonderful stay! The home was exceptionally clean and well cared for, which made it easy to settle in and relax. The location couldn’t be better—quiet, safe, and convenient to everything in Mount Dora. Restaurants, shops, and the downtown area were just minutes away. We truly enjoyed our visit and would absolutely stay here again!

Great place in Mount Dora

We were in town for a beach volleyball tournament and stayed at Maria’s place. It was perfect for our quick trip and had everything we needed!! Maria even asked if we needed an early check in and accommodated us.

The perfect weekend!

My mom, sister, and I were traveling to Mount Dora to visit family over the weekend. We absolutely loved this spot! It was cute, comfy, and cozy - the three things I look for when booking a place to stay! Maria was so helpful and great with communication. We felt right at home and would love to stay again in the future!

Comfy Time at the Ruiz Oasis

This property is immaculate, and the hosts thought of everything we might want to enjoy our time in their home. It was super clean and well supplied. The kitchen and bath are new. It is in a walkable neighborhood. The host provided excellent communications. It is a great vrbo to which we would return for another stay.

The house is very spacious for a small house. The kitchen was like new as was the bathroom. My wife and I both agreed that we would be comfortable living in the house with the furniture and decor as it’s set now. We will make a return visit.

Spectacular and very responsive owner

This is a lovely property! Large driveway and fenced in yard allows privacy and all the comforts of home! Nice walk into town. The owner is fabulous! Very responsive and friendly, easy to communicate with! I would give a higher rating of 10! I can’t wait to rent again! I’m planning my next trip now!I’m new to this so I’m a little clumsy with the app.🤷🏻 Maria was super helpful! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Perfect in so many ways!

What a great host. She was more than accommodating and just a text message away!! The house is located outside downtown Mt. Dora. It's the cutest little place. She did a great job decorating for Christmas!!! The house had EVERYTHING we could need and it smelled amazing. My dog enjoyed the fenced in yard and the kids took advantage of riding scooters on the quiet street and had a blast on the arcade. I highly recommend renting this adorable, comfortable Mt. Dora home.
