Best place to stay

Five adults split this 5BR/5BA home for a two-day Disney trip. The house is very spacious but the pool is quite small. We didn't try the one at the clubhouse, but it looked nice. Checking in was a little confusing. You need to find the main gate to get your parking pass. The drive to Disney is about 30 minutes in morning weekday traffic, but only 20 at night and on weekends. This is a great value for the amount of space you have when you are back at the house. I highly recommend it.

Property was super clean. Management was super easy to get ahold of and answered all our questions in a super timely manner. The water park that was included was very clean and one of our favorite parts of the stay!

We loved our stay at Champions Gate Resort! We booked through Vrbo.com. 8/14 to 8/20 The house was beautiful, 5 bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms and very spacious. The pool was a plus! We had access to all amenities, loved the oasis club. We had to drive about 6 min to the oasis, which wasn’t a problem. Our Location was perfect to Disney parks, lego land, Island of adventure. We did run into school traffic leaving Champions gate to head to the parks. So we now know that school starts early in Florida and depending on the times you head out you may run into traffic, but hey, it’s vacation, be patient, be kind and live in the moment! Will definitely come back.

House was as advertised. Check in process was good. Vernice house with plenty of space. Kids loved the private pool. Kids also loved the water park and pool area. Only problem I had was is the wifi code that was given to me in the email didn’t work. Sent email to office but got no response. Looked around the house and eventually found the correct info in the laundry behind the door taped to the panel. Also had an issue with scan code for entry into property. Was hit & miss on how fast you gained entry into property depending on who was working. At 1 point waited 15 minutes to get in. Would definitely stay again

5 stars all the way around. Water park and clubhouse are a big bonus. It was everything and more than we expected. Planning on a return trip next year.

We had a great stay and would come back again. The house was just like the pictures showed and had plenty of space for everyone.

Communication was excellent. Residence is absolutely beautiful and so spacious. Definitely make sure you bring some of your own cooking supplies/spices because it is scarce. Great location, neighborhood is nice. Although it is not far from parks, the traffic is terrible at any time on the closest highway, I4, so having patience is key. Will definitely be back in the future!!

Upon arriving at to the house we noticed it to be unusually warm. We turned the AC down, went for dinner and when we came back the house was still hot, 86 degrees. When we contacted the property owner it took a while for a response and we were left to sleep in a 86 degree home with small children. The issue did not get resolved until noon the following day. When we requested compensation our request was ignored. The property was overall good aside from our initial issue. It was the perfect size for our family.

The property was just as pictured. Very clean and lots of room. Located in a nice community with access to larger pools.

We enjoyed our stay!

The property was clean, quiet, nice neighborhood. We enjoyed the pool and the amenities of the house. We have some problems with the refrigerator, the ice machine did not work, it was leaking. One of the chair of the kitchen table was broken. The crew that pick the garbage every day, they was friendly and they were coming right on time. We were so happy to chose this place.

We loved the house and it’s exactly as pictured and described. The house is beautiful, and the beds are comfortable. The location is perfect distance from parks, and the resort area is huge. It’s an entire community of its own. Just understand you will go to a separate are in its own gated area for community pool and such. You have to go to main area to get your initial pass then to your house. That process could be perfected I think. It’s a little confusing. The dash pass you’re given has a QR code on it that you use to access gated areas including your home. His needs to be via your phone and skip the paper! The gate for our area was broken and no one’s QR codes worked. We all just figured our to press “guard” and the gate went up. It created lines though while people figured it out. A couple things that were a let down (especially considering how much I paid to stay here) —the kitchen is severely lacking in utensils and basic things. Better pots/pans and skillets. The dollar general ones are horrible, and there’s like three to choose from. How about a baking sheet? There’s no strainer for pasta either. —they ask you to sweep the floors before you leave, which seems like a lot considering you pay a cleaning fee. But there’s no broom in the house. —the game room is in the converted garage, which is fine. But they need to pipe some air in there. It smells musty bc there’s no air in there. —they give you 1 garbage bag. That’s it.

House is gorgeous with great space for all. Really enjoyed having two master bedrooms with extra access to the pool thru lower master bath. Kitchen is large with lots of storage but really needs supply updates (large skillet, measuring cups, pan holder) plenty of cutlery and dishes for 15 but cooking for that many is difficult without essentials We had to contact the manager once and our question was resolved immediately Check in at gate was no issue for us; QR code worked every time. We heated the pool; heads up that the pool and hot tub are heated to the same temp so pool is HOT House is about 13 miles from the parks; traffic on I4 was atrocious but they was a lot of construction Would definitely return and recommend. Beds were the most comfortable mattresses we have encountered and the pool was a great relaxation after all day at the parks Would hope that management company add the kitchen essentials as well as a broom and plunger

Property was as indicated . Loved the use of the Oasis Club House on days that we were not at a park. Everything you need is there. You will of course have to purchase your own toilet paper and paper towels as well as food. It was nice having pool on premises we did purchase 2 strollers and left for future use by renters . All in all it’s a wonderful experience.

Very nice and clean house. My only challenge was that the kitchen needs some updating. It was challenging to cook. No oven mitts, extra pans, or cookie sheets. The neighborhood had a lots of parties that went until 2am. That was rough if you have the windows open. Which was needed because we couldn’t adjust the AC.

The house is amazing, room for everyone to spread out. Open living/dining/kitchen is great for meal time and hanging out. We chose not to pay for the pool to be heated and the kids still had a good time swimming. If you like to cook, the kitchen is not stocked with essentials. Things not provided: can opener, baking sheets, large skillet, measuring cups, cake pans, hot pan holders. You are only provided one trash bag and one dishwasher pod so you will want to buy extra. If you are a big family like ours (12 people) you will need to get more toilet paper and bring your own toiletries. The check in/security gate process is cumbersome after traveling all day. You need to check in at the main security gate to get your gate pass to enter your section of the community’s gate. We ran into an issue that our reservation had not been communicated to the community so we had to wait for property manager to handle that. QR code given for gate pass did not scan so we had to call security each time to be buzzed in. Clubhouse amenities are nice, heads up: you cannot bring in your own food, snacks or drinks.

Didn’t receive house code until two calls by VBRO and two by me. Code was then wrong and we didn’t get access to the house until 9:30PM. Wrong wifi. Manager tried to tell me he didn’t want me to pay through VBRO but to call his company with my credit card info. 30 plus minutes from Disney with long term road construction. You have to pay to heat the hot tube and pay to use the grill. They aren’t included and if you heat the hot tube it heats the pool so that’s a lot of extra money. House has minimal extras. No blankets. Minimal kitchen. Bring your own products as there only a few to get you through a day. When contacting management they were rude and mad that we called.

This property was a fantastic layout for our large group of family and close friends we were traveling with. The 5 bedrooms and baths ensured everyone had space to themselves. Great communal spaces as well as having access to the pool, lazy river and splash pad. We really enjoyed our time.

The house was great. The only thing I had issue with No communication from the owner to get the code to get into the house and no mention of paying for the heater for the pool. Also no directions to get to the water club park.

We came here for our Disney trip. The house is very spacious and plenty of room for us all to spread out. The beds are so comfortable! The management communicates very well and any questions we had were answered immediately. We will definitely stay here again when we come to Disney.

The pool and clubhouse were nice. A little problem with check in code and Wi-Fi password. Property could have been cleaner. Plenty of room for all of us. Had to buy toilet paper, paper towel, garbage bags and other kitchen staples. Overall a good stay

Will definitely consider for future vacations. Highly recommended.

Check in went smoothly, but arrival was stressful because some GPS apps know Champions Gate as Kissimmee or Reunion or Four Corners and we weren’t certain we were going to the correct address. The house presented beautifully until we checked out the game room in the garage. It was like an oven because there was no ventilation in there. We couldn’t use it. It had not been cleaned. There were food wrappers and dirty napkins and a half empty red Gatorade. Within 4 hours of moving in the ants swarmed our package of cookies on the kitchen counter. They sent an exterminator the next day that we wasted our vacation time waiting for because we didn’t want a stranger in the house with all our stuff. Our phone call when the internet password wouldn’t work was not answered until after we found the password written on the laundry room wall. It was not the one we were given, but it worked. They advertised a pool with a spa, but there was an extra daily fee to have it heated and that meant the pool would be heated too, no separate controls so we had to give up our refreshing pool option to have a spa with heat. On day two it quit working and my phone call was ignored. It worked again on day three. We had 8 adults staying 6 nights and there were 12 bath towels in the house. More vacation time missed doing laundry and we had to buy soap to wash their towels. The pool and spa and area were nice, but had no railings to assist with getting in and out. We had to sit on the ground or drop 2 feet to get in and out of the spa, tricky and dangerous and not relaxing. The ants came back in the kitchen on day 4 and phone calls were ignored and by day 6 they were in our luggage in an upstairs bedroom. Deconova was unresponsive so many times that this stay felt like a giant scam, I’ve never had a VRBO experience that was so awful. The beds were comfortable so at least we got some sleep.

Sheets were stained or not cleaned. Hair on furniture and tables and dirty/sticky spots on the floor when we arrived. Ant infestation throughout the bottom floor of the house.

Home was large, clean, and great for our family vacation.

This was an awesome property. There was plenty of room for our family of 10. The layout of the place was perfect with two rooms downstairs and 3 upstairs. The property was clean and stocked with plenty of dishes. The pool was perfect for the kids and the game room was an added bonus. The communication with the management company was great and would highly recommend.

My family met up with some cousins from Ohio for a stay in the Orlando area to hang out and do the Disney World Parks. First, the house is great. It's big and fit us, a group of 11 just right. It is clean and smelled fresh. The home is newer and everything seemed to be in working order. The kids loved the pool and the pool table/ping pong table. A few suggestions: 1) The home is a good 20 minutes from the Disney parks and is nowhere near the location on the map on the VRBO website. The area was very nice and we'd stay here again but it is misleading if you think you'd be able to get to Disney World in a few minutes. Our trips were compounded by construction. 2) There was no extra toilet paper or trash bags. We'd have liked to clean a little and needed a few items that we ended up purchasing to accomplish this. 3) Pool heat and BBQ come at an extra cost. It would have been nice to know that we were going to have to purchase this separately. With that being said, the pool didn't need heating and felt great in the hot/humid days of July. Overall, great experience staying here. Communication was good with the owners.

Brand new property, enough rooms to accommodate a whole family. Great location near stores.

Beautiful property & complex. Complex is still under construction so there is building across the street. This was a problem when storms came up because the wind blowed the red dirt in the air making it impossible to enjoy the outdoors. Houses are close together but indoors you do not hear the outdoor noise. Beds comfortable & all bathrooms very nice. There were cookware & utensils which were a plus. Very pleased with the stay.
