The home is great! - very spacious, nicely furnished and decorated, kitchen fully stocked with dishes, pans, cups, etc., beds were very comfortable, nice pool and hot tub, and great TVs. The location is fantastic, near parks, stores, restaurants. Emerald Island is a very nice resort. The hosts were great and made everything easy. We look forward to staying there again!
Our stay was amazing! The house had everything we needed and was super clean! Smart TVs in every room and had plenty of extra towels and blankets! Would def come back any time we are in the Orlando area!

I am so happy you enjoyed your stay. I just read this at the end of a tough day at work, and you made me smile!
Please, come visit us again!
Home was large enough for our family of 10. It had everything we needed. The kids loved the pool and outdoor area.

I am so glad that you vacation was all that you wanted it to be. As you said on the phone, "We look forward to seeing you again!"
The location of the house is close to parks. House is just like it was described. Easy check in, and easy check out. There was a total of 9 (5 Adults, 4 Kids) of us staying at house, and we were all comfortable The theme rooms were cool our kids liked them. Having the private pool was great as well, we all got to enjoy it. If available in future we would book again. Thank You
Our stay was great!!! Kids jad an amazing time. The ONLY problem was thag the air didnt work for a few hours and they sent someone within a timely manner. Thank you So Much!!!

Best Place We Have Ever Stayed!
We loved our stay at Emerald Island. Joe and Denise were wonderful to work with. We contacted them on four different occasions because this was our first time to use VRBO to rent a home. They respond within hours and were so friendly. The house delivered everything as promised on the website.
We will come back. You will not find a better place to stay near Disney.

I love hearing it when guests both have a good vacation and compliment our communication. We have been going to Disney for many years as guests and learned how important it was to have a host with great communication. That is our goal.
Thank you for the rating and for your return visit!
Wonderful place for our 4 families, 9 adults and 5 children. Beds were great, kitchen well stocked. Nice to have washer and dryer. Kids enjoyed the pool, only downside was that the hot tub heater quit and they weren't able to get it fixed while we were there. The outside temperature was warm enough so the kids didn't mind the cooler water. Would rent again if we come back to Orlando for a family gathering.
house was a great location, easy to get to from the airport, and had easy access to and from both Disney and Universal studios. Many of the high touch surfaces were sticky and the washing machine was dirty but this was easily cleaned by ourselves. The hosts have really thought about the little details that make arriving nice. They were easy to contact with little issues we had during our stay.
The home fit 11 of us perfectly- there is enough space for everyone to spread out and relax. The main tv doesn’t have app availability so if you are wanting to watch something specific (football!!) bring your own Roku. But the location was perfect! Only suggestion would be extra paper products, dish rags and a mop. But we made due and tried to clean up the best we could.
The check in to the gated community was easy. The house was just as pictured. It was a wonderful stay. We spent one day just at the house enjoying the pool and hot tub. We were very close to Disneyworld which is why we vacationed in Florida. The themed rooms were nice. The little girls room was so cute even though the little ladies we brought both 3 years old didn’t even sleep in the room. It was a perfect vacation 10 out of 10. The owner was very responsive it was perfect and plenty of room for 6 adults and 4 children that we were not on top of each other.
Garage parking very confusing! Need written directions on how to access in and out tickets.

Huge house that met all of our needs and more
This place is huge....seven bedrooms and it met all of our needs and exceeded our expectations. Our children loved the decorated rooms in the themes of Cars, Frozen, Star Wars and Harry Potter. The three other bedrooms were very nicely decorated as well as the rest of the house. It was well stocked with plenty of dishes, towels, extra bedding and even beach towels and coolers. I saw a portacrib, highchair, and strollers too even though we didn't have anyone small enough to use those. This was by far the best house we've stayed in in all of our 30 years of going to Disney World. We are so glad we found it and we will definitely be back. Oh yeah, and my favorite part was the pool and hot tub area. There was plenty of shade, room for dining around the table, and lots of sunning chairs and even more sitting chairs. Thanks Joe and Denise for a great stay.

Liked: Check-in, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Not what we expected
My first priority in renting is cleanliness. The mattress covers and shower curtains were stained, the floor had not been vacuumed thoroughly. The pool deck was dirty and the outdoor table was broken.The pool and spa heaters were not working. The owner refunded the heating fee but we chose the property for the pool. Our group was disappointed.

I am so sorry you did not enjoy your stay. The pool heater breaking really stunk. It broke the day of your checkin and we could not get it repaired.
For people reading this review, I ask you to look at our other reviews. Colleen was very disappointed about the pool heat, and rightfully so. As a result of that, other things were exasperated. For example, a loose table leg is not a broken table.
This is a rare example of when we could not deliver fully on our effort to give everyone a five star stay. The broken pool heater was out of our control. We got a pool tech out within hours of being told it wasn't heated, but the part needed was not in stock and we did not get it repaired for a couple of days. I am sad this happened and we do all we can to prevent things like this, but, occasionally, equipment breaks.
Please read our other reviews.
The layout of the house is great and accommodated our extended of 10 well. Each of the four kids had their own room, which was a perk. However, the house is generally a bit run down and there were several things that were broken or not working properly. The hot tub didn’t work, the ice machine in the fridge didn’t work and it needed a new filter, the dishwasher didn’t work well, one of the lights had loose wiring that caused it to go on and off on its own, and a few chairs had loose legs. The house was fine enough for a 3-night stay, but definitely didn’t have the wow factor we thought it would from the listing photos.
Overall, this was a great place for my family of 10 (5 kids/5 adults) to stay. We didn't spend alot of time there, other than sleeping because our days were filled with theme parks.By day 2, we ran out of toilet paper in all 5 bathrooms and had to go buy more. Did not have new full rolls to begin with. We had adequate bath towels for 10, but not hand towels nor wash clothes. There was 1 kitchen towel but no dish clothe to wash dishes with. There were large spider webs near the ceiling in the foyer. All air vents could use cleaning with some quite dirty/dusty. Doors were sticky/dirty near door knobs. Throw rugs need to be laundered. Couldn't locate any hot pads or cooling racks in the kitchen. Nicely decorated and comfortable.

Marvelous Time
Our holiday was absolutely marvelous because of this property and the Holmans.
Pros: Almost everything. The location. The home decor. The resort. Most of all, the communication with Denise. She answered every email within hours, responded instantly to our text.
Cons: The pool was not heated when we arrived, although it was supposed to be. Emailed and texted Denise. She contacted their management company, who had made the error. Someone came out within hours. Although the pool heat was free, so we did not lose any money, Denise sent us $75 to eat out as an apology, so even our con became a pro.
Next time we return to WDW, we will be renting this property again.

Would stay here again.
I would bring my family here again. Some things not mentioned is that there is a Blu ray player in the living room with a drawer full of children's movies. Very nice!
You should know that the spa is NOT a hot tub. Not being from Florida, I did not know there was a difference.
There were some minor housekeeping issues when we checked in. The owner immediately responded via text. The issues were corrected by the management company the next day.
The only negative issue is that you can't check in until 4pm. If you find a problem then the local management team only responds to non emergency problems until 5pm. I contacted them at 4:10 pm and they could not respond that day.
But again I received 5 star service because of the owner's quick response and remedy to unforeseen circumstances.

Thank you for your good review. I am sorry about the hiccup At the beginning. I am glad that they got worked out.
Next time you come, if possible we will get you an early check in. We have had several comments about this. It is our management company that has this policy, but we think we have a "work around" that might work. :)
Please excuse typos. Typing on my device without my glasses. 😀
House was clean. Adequate space. My only concern was the garage turned game room was extremely hot due to no air conditioning. The ice maker on refrigerator didn’t work. There was an ice maker that was on the kitchen counter however if multiple people needed ice there isn’t enough. We just went and bought bags of ice. Otherwise great stay
The kids really enjoyed the themed rooms and the pool. The adults really enjoyed the space and the set up of the house. We had a good time and a nice brunch.

Beautiful home. Well taken care of and perfect for our group of 10
Kids were up and in the pool first thing in the morning last thing at night. Everything we needed to make breakfast before leaving for Universal Studios and Sea World was there. The bedrooms were a great size and everyone found one they felt good in. Thanks Joe for all your assistance and emails. We truly felt right at home in your home.
