Our beautiful villa is approx 15 miles from Disney on Southern Dunes
prestigious Golf & Country Club which is a gated community.

Built on the golf course this is an ideal location; close enough to feel
the Disney magic but far enough away to avoid the hustle and bustle. The
villa is ideally situated when visiting the theme parks, site seeing
around Florida or generally relaxing by our private, south facing pool.
For those in your party who play golf, Southern Dunes is one of the top
PGA golf courses in Florida so you can even combine your favourite sport
with your family holiday.

As the villa is very spacious its ideal for one or two families sharing.

Within Southern Dunes Golf & Country Club grounds you will find a
clubhouse, restaurant, community swimming pool, fitness gym, childrens
park, tennis courts and small lake. Just outside the main entrance gates
there�s a large Walmart store which is open 24 hours a day. There are
numerous restaurants within a few minutes drive or several directly
opposite Southern Dunes if you want to leave the car at the villa.
