I am off to Florida this Saturday. The villa we have rented is based in Kissemmee and sleeps 8 and is costing us £200 a week for 5 of us. If you have no joy finding someone, give me a shout in about three weeks time and I will pass on the details of where we are staying. The owner is UK based, and they have also arranged Disney tickets on a 7 day pass at a 30% discount.

I also am in Florida next year and am staying in the MIC lake Front Hotel. Right on International drive, not far away from the parks!

There are quite a few villas advertised on our work intranet. Drop me a mail and I'll give you the contacts.

You might wanna try Orange Lakes country club in Kissimmee. It's a time share estate but they also rent some of the apartments out. It's a gorgeous estate with 3 9 hole proffessional golf courses, pools, cinema etc. Not sure about prices, only ever used it with my folks' timeshare.

I think the guy with the property goes by the name "jods"

I wouldn't mind getting in touch with him also (if anyone knows his e-mail addy), for a booking in March/April.

IIRC, he was offering a Scoobynet discount...perhaps he should get a spot in the ScoobyShop

Stayed at Orange Lakes a few years back when I first went to Florida. My parents also have a timeshare which is how we got there so no idea what it costs but it looks pricey. Nice little lake that offers jet skiing, water skiing etc. Big pool. Nice friendly atmosphere (like most places in Florida). Is a bit further out of Kissimee but as you will no doubt rent a car then not a problem.

Last year I went with work mates and stayed at a villa owned by the parents of a friend. It was great with its own swimming pool and massive rooms. Cost about £400 a week but slept 8 and this was at peak time so will no doubt be a lot cheaper at this time of year. Think it was called Indian Pointe which us about 3 miles south of the 192 on Ponciana Blvd (just before Walmart). All the villas are a pretty generic format in Kissimee so you will be hard pushed to get a bad one. Just depends if you want the extras like a private pool, backing out onto a lake etc.

The website was http://www.efloridadirect.com/ but it appears to be down at this time.

My sister owns and rents out a villa close to Disney. It's meant to be very nice although I haven't visited myself yet. More details can be found here.
