Great Location and Great Hosts

House was very close to downtown Mount Dora, which is what we were looking for, park the vehicle and walk everywhere. Pictures could not have been spot on anymore then they were, walking into the home was like walking in to the pictures. Hosts were very nice and easy to work with, we will be back to Mount Dora and will utilize "Under the Palms" again.

Like I mentioned before, this property is in a perfect location for going into downtown Mount Dora, we were there for the Art Festival and it is literally a 3 minute walk to all the stores and restaurants, parking was no problem for our two vehicles and the rental itself was perfect, two King beds,a kitchenette and a nice Porch to sit outside

Perfect stay

Has all you need including very comfy clean big beds and an extra twin! The luxury big reclining couch was a huge hit and perfect for watching a movie before bedtime or watching the news with coffee/tea in the morning! Easy walk to the lake, all the great food and shops in Mt Dora. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night.

The property was perfect. Great location - could not get much closer to downtown Mt. Dora. The owners were extremely friendly and reached out throughout the trip to ensure everything was going okay. The cottage was clean and stocked with everything a person would need. Would stay again for sure.

Mt Dora for Thanksgiving

What a terrific place "Under the Palms" to relax and enjoy Mt Adorable - Someplace Special. The location was perfect, one block from Donnelly Park and the heart of town, so festively adorned for the season. This property is cozy, complete and comfortable with welcoming hosts and relaxing lounge chairs from which to enjoy the beautiful weather and read a book or take a nap. Our stay was fantastic.
