Nice little place good for two people. Convenient to just about everything- shopping, dining, parks, etc. Check in was easy. No need to contact owner during stay.
It was easy to get anywhere we wanted to go. The owner was great. Any questions she answered right away. Cozy. Friendly neighbors. Nice community to walk around and walk my dog. Good rental.
Some basic home features were not working, including electrical outlets and the microwave. The home smelled like burning plastic and we tried to make several bags of popcorn with no success. The home had not been entirely clean, with stickers from someone elseâs vacation hanging off a doorframe. The Yoda bedside lamp was not workingâŠmy five year old was disappointed with the place! The location was great, though would not stay here again nor reccomend this rental.
I tried to refrain from writing a review because this is someone's livelihood, but vrbo kept pushing and my friend said I could possibly help someone in the future. The place was much smaller than looks in photos, but thats common i feel like. The deal breaker for me was the following: the floors were dirty, there was crumbs and stuff that got stuck to my socks, there was hair in the shower walls, the pull out bed cant handle adult weight, my poor husband was falling into the couch and had to sleep diagnol to avoid a bar in his back. The front door lock had so many problems closing using the mechanism that it kept beeping and yelling, it made me caution leaving the property if it would actually lock. With all that we left and did not stay, we found other accommodations. The owner was responsive and nice and so was I, it just wasnt for us.
My stay at Kathryn's place was very satisfactory and most certainly comfortable. I was at first scared about staying in a new neighborhood in a different state that was not hotel-based. However, the security on premise kept up with all cars entering and leaving the community as well as meeting members of the community who were welcoming and kind to us during our stay. Big GOLD STAR to Kathryn for speedy responses whenever I asked any questions prior to and during my stayâthis assured me that my family was in good hands and made us feel paid attention to. Four bed pillows, a sofa bed, plenty towels and blankets, cookware, washer dryer and central air conditioning gave us a sense of home and comfort in Kathryn's space. If you are looking to be well-accommodated while being a short-drive away from Disney, please book this place.
My wife booked this as a part of my 50th birthday Disney Star Wars trip. It was clean and close to attractions. Lots of food choices in the area for those not wanting to eat 3 meals a day in the parks or spend time cooking. Would definitely book again.
This is a good location for experienced Disney fans. It was a 10 minute drive from the front door to Hollywood Studios. I enjoyed cooking in the full kitchen and the convenience of the full laundry just off the front door.
Also, the fully screened large front porch was a wonderful part of a stay that included a couple of days without power thanks to hurricane Ian.
Kathryn, the host, is good at communicating quickly if there is a question or concern.
I would not recommend this location to a first time visitor to the theme parks. It is essentially the mobile home section of a campground. The home itself is a 1997 model. This park model has had cosmetic updates as well as the laundry/porch additions. However, the floor plan & features are dated. This cabin is more of a budget option than luxury indulgence.
I would stay here again happily. My thought is that anyone who takes the time to understand the property before arriving and appreciates this type of environment will enjoy staying at this property.
Our family spent three nights here while visiting Magic Kingdom and Universal. Check-in was seamless. The location was great for easy access to lots of dining options and proximity to the parks. Our kids loved the Star Wars theme which was an added bonus. Coffee was ready to go which is always bonus points from me! :) Kathryn was super speedy in replying to a quick question I had. Overall, it was perfect for a quick and quiet getaway while on a very busy trip!
We stayed for 3 days while visiting universal. It was perfect for us and our dogs, the cottage was clean and there is a nice area to walk the dogs. As a bonus we saw deer and a turtle. The people there were so nice and friendly. Would definitely stay again!!!
The Jedi Cottage is clean and comfy, private, safe, and accessible. Cute touches remind visitors that this is indeed a Jedi cottage - so if Disney plans are happening, you are conveniently located and in the mood!
