Emerald Island Happy Place

Summary:
Located within the desirable gated resort community of Emerald Island, this charming 4-bedroom home is the ideal choice for your upcoming Florida getaway!

The Space:
Your fun under the plentiful sun begins in and around your own personal heated inground pool under the screened-in lanai, splashing and playing to your heart’s content. Lounge for hours by the pool, turning the pages of a good book while the barbeque master in your crew whips up a delicious lunch on the grill. Providing serene overlooks of the community reservoir, peace and privacy are in abundance with no neighbors to the rear of the home. As a guest of Emerald Island, you’ll also have unlimited access to the exciting onsite amenities such as a heated swimming pool, nature trails, a sauna, mini golf, a tiki bar, kids’ playgrounds, and multiple sports courts, and that’s just to name a few!

Inside the home, the open floorplan allows enough space for everyone to spread out and find their own private corner while bringing you back together in communal spaces designed for relaxation and connectivity. The cozy living room offers a plush L-shaped sofa to rest your feet while you stream episodes of all your favorite movies on the smart TV. Steps away, the modern kitchen is fully equipped to assist you in preparing meals large or small, with stainless steel appliances, shiny quartz countertops, and ample cabinetry. Dining is made easy between the formal table with seating for 8, high-top stools at the counter for 3, or a smaller dining table with seating for 4. After blissful days filled with adventure, keep the excitement flowing in the garage-converted game room featuring a media room with recliners, arcade games, and a smart TV.

This home comfortably sleeps 10 guests between 4 private bedrooms.

Bedroom #1 includes a king size bed, smart TV, patio access, and ensuite bathroom with a single vanity and walk-in shower.

Bedroom #2 includes a twin-over-full bunk bed and smart TV.

Bedroom #3 includes a twin-over-full bunk bed and smart TV.

Bedroom #4 includes a king size bed, smart TV, and ensuite bathroom with a single vanity and shower/tub combo.

THINGS TO NOTE:
• Washer and dryer in home.
• NO SMOKING allowed on the premises inside or outside.
• Driveway and street parking available for 6 vehicles. An additional $20 fee per vehicle will be required for registration.

• Pool can be heated for an additional fee of $29 per night. Please contact our customer service after you have booked your stay for further payment. Please be advised that the pool heat is not included in your reservation cost. Charges for pool heat are non-refundable unless the heating system is experiencing issues. Pools need a minimum of 48 hours to heat properly. Pool heat is added for the whole stay or none of the stay. There is no partial pool heat allowed due to the high costs to bring up the temperature in the home.

Note: cold fronts in the winter months (<60 degrees) can cause the electric pool equipment not to function; this does not constitute mechanical failure and refunds for pool heat will not be issued. Home with heat pumps can only pull heat from the ambient air, and generally only 15-20 degrees above ambient is the temp the pools can get to.

• Patio grills. Your home might have a BBQ grill installed on the patio. If you decide to use the grill, there is a $95 fee. You should request to use the BBQ grill prior to your arrival as we have locks on the grills. After each checkout and before any arrival, our operations team checks the grills by taking pictures and/or videos. If it is determined that you or your guests used the grill, you will receive communication from our guest services team advising you that your card will be charged. BBQ grill fees are non-refundable..

• REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED BY EMERALD ISLAND RESORT TO AVOID NON-STAYING GUESTS AND THE TOWING OF VEHICLES. There is a $20 fee per car to register your vehicle and receive an access card for up to 1 week stays.

Emerald Island Happy Place is advantageously located with several nearby options for dining and shopping. You’ll enjoy staying just minutes from world-renowned attractions, beautiful beaches, and challenging golf courses.

wonderful home in a quiet neighborhood

It's a fantastic four-bedroom house in a quiet gated community. The back has a beautiful view of the water and woods. The pool area is a great place to relax. It is easily located from Orlando's airport. Take advantage of the mini golf, heated pool, and nature trail in the community. Any questions we had were quickly answered via text. Recommend this vacation rental.

Ok

Love the gated community. This was the second time we stayed here, but not the same house. House was nice. My son enjoyed the game room with the big screen TV and theater seating. Pool area could use a good power washing. The beds definitely need new mattresses. They may be ok for a long weekend but not for a 35 day stay. Also the couch wasn’t very comfortable either. Would definitely stay here again if these things would be updated

Some repairs needed but worth the price

Ice maker in fridge not working, broken chair in movie room, garbage can 1/2 full of unbagged trash at check in (violation of area rules), cigarette butts under pool furniture (again, supposed to be smoke free), leaking under kitchen sink. All were reported but the sink leak was the only item addressed. The beds were the sizes listed but the mattresses were incredibly soft. Not bad but not comfortable. Property management said they were not responsible for the fridge or broken chair and were not willing to check any of the complaints except for the above mentioned sink problem.

Poor Stay

VRBO On our arrival to Emerald Island resort, late evening of 17th August, it was immediately clear that the wifi was not operational. Our first action was to reset the router, as this is usually a good indicator of where the problem may lie. When this did not work we made contact with the management company alert them to the fact that there was a problem with the internet connection. Over the next 3 days we were consistently advised to reset the router, despite this clearly not being a solution. A series of phone calls and messages were made, either being ignored or receiving a delayed response. All information was sent via text message, despite us advising Rob that a phone call would be preferable as we didn’t appear to be receiving text messages. We received a phone call on Monday 19th, asking us if we were at the villa, so that an engineer could be sent. Unsurprisingly due to the fact that we were trying to enjoy our holiday, we were not at the villa and therefore no further action was taken, despite the fact that we were given the impression that access could be made in our absence so as not to disrupt our family time. Eventually on Wednesday 21st August, we received another phone call to advise us that the router was not the source of the problem- despite us having said this since our arrival 5 days previously- and an engineer was sent. On her arrival, she made an external inspection where she found a bee hive, which was affecting the wifi con
