Disney Vacation Villa - 5 minutes to Disney
About this villa rental
* The community pool is scheduled to be closed for maintenance September 5 - October 6, 2024. The waterpark and all other amenities will be open. * Looking for a villa close to Disney with great amenities? Look no further than our Galaxy Beyond Villa. This 5 bedroom, 5 bath pool home is perfect for a family vacation: * Less than 10 minute drive to Disney's front entrance * Free access to resort amenities * South facing pool with a premium saltwater system * Relatively private pool deck * Air conditioned game room with private theater * Themed bedrooms – Toy Story, Star Wars and Mickey * Free Wi-Fi and onsite parking * Free use of baby items including high chair, pack-n-play and strollers for the parks This beautiful villa is located less than 5 miles from Disney in the gated resort community of Windsor Hills (the closest pool home community to Disney). Your vacation rental includes access to all of Windsor Hills' amenities free of charge. This includes the community pool and water park. Enjoy all of the beautiful Florida sun with a south facing pool and spa. The pool has been updated to a saltwater system. Stop swimming in over chlorinated pools that burn your eyes. Saltwater systems use a computer and electrolysis to control pool hygiene. Most vacation home pools are visited by a pool guy once a week that dumps tons of chlorine into the pool so that it lasts until he returns the next week. Those pools smell of chlorine and burn your eyes. A saltwater system is like swimming in saline. The water has a soft and silky feel. Saltwater systems are also better for your skin and hair because the chlorine level is properly controlled. Once you swim in a saltwater pool, you'll never want to rent a non-saltwater pool again. Since the house is perfectly south facing, the covered lanai offers excellent shade all-day for those who need a little reprieve from the sun's rays. The lanai ceiling fan creates a cool breeze when needed. The pool is set back a little from the neighbors creating some relative privacy. There is also a security gate around the pool for safety (rolled out of the way for pictures). The fully equipped kitchen features granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances. There is also a breakfast nook for quick meals before heading to the parks. Counter top appliances include a Keurig machine in addition to the normal coffee pot, kettle, toaster and blender. Just past the kitchen is a dining room with seating for eight. A highchair is available for younger guests. We also provide a pack-n-play and strollers that may be taken to the parks. Connected to the dining room is the living room and 65 inch Smart TV. Feel free to use your Netflix or Disney+ account to watch movies and television shows. The downstairs features three bedrooms. The two master suites are closest to the pool with doorways off of the living room. These suites feature king beds, TVs, dual sink bathrooms, walk in closets, water closet and tiled showers. The third downstairs bedroom is a Mickey Mouse themed bedroom and bathroom with a queen size bed. The bathroom has two doors and serves as the primary bathroom for the downstairs living area. The bedroom has a nice size closet and TV. The two upstairs bedrooms are the inspiration behind the Galaxy Beyond name. Come stay aboard a Star Destroyer during the Battle of Endor in our Stormtrooper barracks. Guest will enjoy a double over double bunk bed. The Toy Story room features twin beds with Andy's Toys ready for adventure. We hope your kids will enjoy the fun décor inspired by the two newest lands in Hollywood Studios. Finally, no Florida home would be complete without a game room. The Marvel themed, air conditioned room includes an air hockey and foosball table. The other part of the game room features a private theater for watching your favorite movies and shows. The streaming box allows you to use your favorite streaming services. There is also a washer and dryer for doing any laundry during your stay. NOTE: Your safety matters. This property has a Ring doorbell device and exterior security cameras facing the front outdoor entry, driveway and sides of the home. The cameras DO NOT look into any interior spaces. The cameras actively record video when motion is detected by the device or when the video doorbell button is pressed.

We were so impressed with the house! The location was close to all Disney parks as well as additional amenities. The house was super clean and had the perfect amount of Disney decor to keep us feeling like we were in the "Disney bubble". The hidden Mickey's game was an added touch we all enjoyed while at the house. Having the pool and hot tub was a lifesaver after the long days at the park. Will definitely use Galaxy Beyond Villas on our next trip to Disney!

If I could leave a 10 star review I would! We have stayed in several homes in this same neighborhood and this one is by and far THE BEST!!!! The house was SO CLEAN!!! Plenty of kid appropriate dishes in kitchen, activities in game room, clean pool and HOT hot tub! The carpet was SO SOFT and all the sheets and towels (which they provided plenty) were clean, and quality. The decor is great and my kids LOVED finding all the "hidden mickeys" throughout the home!!!
Would 100% recommend to any family! Every bedroom has it's own bathroom. Two kids rooms upstairs and the Mickey Mouse room is near the game room but still private. Two adult master suites in back near the pool. They also had high chair and several strollers in a closet (we didn't use those but looked and found them to be sturdy and clean). Seriously, the best VRBO experience we have ever had!!

Great house near Disney. Daughter loved the water park.

Everything was spotless. Pool was nice and warm. I have two minor things I would mention that wouldn’t stop me front renting again or recommending.
1. Baby gate hardware was broken to hook up to stair railing. (We were out and about so not too crazy of an issue)
2. If possible and you know a family is renting next, maybe remove any breakable decorations. We moved them to closet and took pictures of how they go.
Oh one more thing we noticed, when looking out to pool, outside door handle /lock on left side is broke. Looks like it’s corroded.
Will try to stay again next time in Orlando for few days.
Thank you

Whilst Windsor Hills is definitely a great place to say in relation to visiting Disney parks, this particular property was disappointing. It’s in need of some TLC. The cleanliness was very disappointing. The floors had certainly not been cleaned and we found discarded food under the sofa and empty soda bottles under the coffee table. In Two bathrooms, both showers had not been cleaned well, long dark hairs in both. The sink was brown and discoloured and lacked cleaning. The ironing board was broken along with the clothes dryer. These were replaced immediately once I contact the management company, however routine checks should be made before guests arrive. The property lacks home goods. There were only 4 wine glasses and they weren’t the same size. It wouldn’t take a lot to make this property more appealing. Towels are wearing thin and generally everything needs an update. We paid additionally to hire the gas BBQ to only find it was not locked as were told it would be, and other guests had used it without paying, so it wasn’t very clean. I contacted the owner and he said he was not aware and that he deemed it theft by previous guest for using something they hadn’t paid for. I think taking money from me that other had had for free is hardly fare either, perhaps he should consider that theft! I mentioned the poor cleaning to the owner, only to be told other guests comment on how clean it is, not sure that helped me, the Villa had certainly not been cleaned well this time.

Perfect house for our family. The snags we encountered were emailed to the owner after they checked in with a welcome email. Overall it’s a very comfortable house. For our experience I’d like to have liquid hand soap snd more kitchen trash bags for our use during our stay, but the Walmart was super close and after a trip for essentials all was good.

House is perfect size with large rooms that are laid out for maximum privacy. The lanai and private pool are were our favorite part of the house. Very quiet location perfect for early morning coffee or evening cocktail. The kids and adults all agree we would come back. The host is very responsive to questions from the time booked and throughout our stay. Would give 5 stars but there is always room for improvement.

My extended family stayed with us on a spring break 2023 vacation to Disney World. This property was fantastic in that it was 15-20 min drive from most parks. The pool was great for cooling off during afternoon breaks from park or unwinding at end of the day. Spacious accommodations and the owner was super responsive to questions. Would love to book again in future.

Everything about this property was amazing! From the check in process, communication with both Chris and the property management company, the home itself everything was perfect! The decor in each room was exactly as the pictures showed and everyone had such a great time in the game room, home theater and of course the pool! The property was conveniently located close to everything! Would definitely stay here again!

We had an amazing time. It was so nice to have a quiet house to come home to after a busy/crowded day at the Disney parks. The kids spent hours a day in the pool and we ended our nights with a movie in the theatre. Great location, super quiet, and the house had everything we needed.

The house was amazing. Perfect size for my 6 member family. We had an extra bedroom with bunk beds. The pool was wonderful. Only wish was to have some spices in the cupboards. Salt and Pepper would have been awesome.

This is an amazing property!! This property is only 10-15 from Disney World. It is in a very safe gated community. The community is very nice and has multiple playgrounds and a water park for off Parks days. We loved the house, the pool, the theatre room and game room. The house is very clean and you can tell the owner is constantly making updates. We had an adventure mid week with Hurricane Ian coming through but felt very safe sheltering at the house. The property manager came by before to secure furniture and left us a flashlight in case of power outage. They came back to check on us after the storm had passed. Excellent communication with owner. We would definitely stay here again.

We were amazed by the ammentities of this house. As a family of 7, it is hard to please everyone, but we all had a wonderful stay. Everything was as advertised. The pool, game room and theatre were stellar! Chris was an amazing host, answering all of our questions promptly, he even checked on us after we arrived!!

Absolutely the best!
If you don't stay here, you are completely missing out! We picked this house because of what it offered our family of 10 (size, amenities, location, etc.) and it did not disappoint. Chris was an amazing host; he answered each and every question we had before and during our stay. He even checked in with me once we arrived to make sure we didn't need anything. Check and check out procedures were a breeze. We would definitely stay here again!

Perfect vacation stay!
This property rental was seamless from the get go. The property manager was so kind, even when I had last minute requests. The house had every amenity we needed and the location is ideal. The backyard pool is a great size and we enjoyed the neighborhood pool as well. Thanks for a great stay- we would love to come back!

From the initial booking up until the day we left (we stayed for 7 days) was just an awesome experience. There were a total of 9 of us on this trip, and I have to say Chris really made the stay enjoyable for us with a gated community and many amenities provided for us. The swimming pool and Theatre room were among the favorites of ours. Less then 10 minutes from Disney Parks. I would definitely rent from Chris again the next Disney Trip we make. Thank you Again!

Pool heat wasn't working first part of trip, but was fixed later. Property manager didn't return calls. Quiet neighborhood.
