WHEN SHOULD WE GO? Ideally, you want to go when the weather is moderate and the crowds are low. Unfortunately between vacation schedules and school-age kids, your options might be limited. There might be special activities at Walt Disney World that you would like see and do, so obviously you need to take a look at the Yearly Events Schedule. 

Our favorite times of the year are in January/early February (beautiful weather and low crowds), April and May (Epcot’s Flower and Garden Festival), October and November (Epcot Food and Wine Festival), and December (Holidays Around the World). 

WHERE SHOULD I STAY?

Where to stay is a major decision. There are hotels to fit all budgets, and they offer special perks to their guests (like complimentary Disney Transportation).

Staying in your Own Rented Villa is likely to cost less and definetly be more “Home From Home”  but then you’ll probably want a rental car. Only you can decide what is best for YOUR Family. We certainly believe the “Having Your Own Villa Experience” is not to be missed. We ended up buying a Villa for ourselves once we had taken “The Experience”, as we could never imagine going back into a Hotel room.

These are the Advantages that we feel make all the difference for having your own Villa for your Vacation.

• Generally better/larger but most of all Homely accommodation. 
• Private Pool
• Your own space to relax during your time away from The Parks
• No timetable to keep up to
• Much better Value for money (per Head).
• Villas offer Larger family groups to be able to stay together–as a family.
• Starting at 3 Bedrooms upwards the choice is yours
• For examples a 4 Bed/3Bath, 2 Master Bedrooms, 2 Twin Bedrooms is ideal for 2 Families to share or 1 Family to have more space.7 bedroom pool home which will sleep up to 16 is ideal for Family Reunions. All will have several televisions with VCRs, DVD player, stereo, fully equipped kitchen, private pool, telephone service, washer and dryer, dishwasher, two car garage or games room and much more. 
• Better access to restaurants, shopping and other non-Disney attractions. NOT immersed in Disney Magic 24 hours a day.

As you can tell, we’re SOLD on renting your own Villa. Go on try it for yourselves, we are sure you will not regret it and will never go back to a Room in a hotel.
