Enjoy a Vacation Villa in Orlando at the Windsor Palms Resort

If you enjoy using vacation villa in Orlando when on a Disney vacation, then you should try the Windsor Palms resort. This is a fabulous way to spend a vacation in Florida, and while these villas are just as good value for small families as large parties, it is on the latter that we shall focus here.

Large parties of people are not unusual in Florida, and these can take many forms. However, because of the large number of golf courses in and around the Orlando area, the resort tends to attract parties of golfers, generally male but not always so, in addition to the large family groups that like to get together once every two or three years for a Disney World vacation. Disney is extremely popular, for obvious reasons, and has exerted a large influence on the success of Orlando as a vacation destination, not only for Americans but worldwide.

However, Orlando had more than just Disney to offer, and it is doubtful that the World of Disney resort would have been sited here were it not for the wonderful Florida climate. In addition to golf, there are many other satellite attractions around Disney World that attract groups of people from all over the world.

Let's say that there are ten of you in your group - there could be more since some Orlando vacation villas sleep more than a dozen, but 10 is fine for this example. Parties of 10 do turn up in Orlando for a golfing break, and the more in the party the more likely they are to be mixed. It might not start out that way, but once the wife finds out that her husband is going on vacation with a load of his buddies, then she is going too! Wise woman, and that is by no mean sexist because was it a man in the same situation, he would wave goodbye as she left on vacation with her friends and immediately organize a party!

However, we have a mixed party of 10 on vacation, either golfers or relatives. How many bedrooms would that involve on average in a hotel? Let's say 6. Mentioning no hotel prices, but you can rent a vacation villa in Orlando in the Windsor Palms resort with 6 bedrooms that sleep 12 for just $225 high season. That's $22.50 each or 10 people. Or, equating it with 6 hotel rooms, that's under $38 night per room. For a top class hotel in Orlando in high season? If that's not dirt cheap then what is!

No guessing which costs least then, but it's not only price that's involved when it comes to vacation accommodation. Some people would rather pay more for more comfort and facilities. You have a fair few options when it comes to vacation accommodation in Orlando, although it would take a lot to beat a Windsor Palms resort villa. Forget price, and let's look at what you actually get.

Six TV sets with 4 VCRs and a DVD player, and your own pool and spa. You also get your own kitchen with fridge and freezer, high speed internet access, and all the facilities of the resort. These include basketball, volleyball, tennis, a fitness center, DVD rental and a store. In addition to that, of course, you have all that Orlando has to offer and are only 10 minutes from Disney World.

For a large party of people this is ideal, because you can sit by your own pool at night with a few beers and bottles of wine, and fill yourself with chili dogs and cheeseburgers without having to call room service: just cook them yourselves, and you can get a gas grill for a small weekly charge. With a lot of you, you have no problems sitting together as you might in a busy hotel, and no other guests in the same lounge getting annoyed when you start getting a bit loud after a few bottles.

No, there is no substitute for a vacation villa in Orlando, particularly for large parties at the Windsor Palms resort. The Orlando district is excellent for golf, and you get a lot of golfing parties using the facilities of the resort. Families, too, find the villas to be extremely comfortable and offer all the facilities they need. You can not only cook your own meals, but also wash your clothes without needing the services of a laundry, something that many young mothers find invaluable when their youngsters have accidents as children tend to do
