Amazing place that I will be sure to return to.
What a great location, amazing neighborhood, more than we could expect. Our host responded immediately multiple times despite the time difference. Had fun fishing, playing pool in the garage, pool and jacuzzi in the back were perfect. Can't say enough good things.

Brightwater Villa
Pool area and condition + heating to the pool was excellent. The home provided everything that was needed as well as a good games area in the garage. Lovely property and location was perfect. Gated area provided good security and the friendliness of neighbouring locals was reassuring. The upkeep of Lake Berkley was excellent, clean and extremely well maintained with interesting wild life. Additionally the locality of Lake Berkley is close to all restaurants and super markets as well as theme parks.

Get away trip
My husband, myself two sisters and their husbands all stayed for a week. We had a very good time. The home was comfortable , but could use some updating and I would not say the cleaning crew was the best. We were surprised that there were no cleaning products available for us to use, not even windex. We really were not prepared to buy those supplies for our stay and then have to leave them there as we were flying. But all in all we enjoyed our stay very much.Thank you 😊

Large house was perfect for spreading out.
We booked the house to go to Disney. It was absolutely wonderful to come home and spread out at night. The drive was smooth and around 25 minutes. In the mornings, the kids could sleep in and we headed to the park around 10. We didn't heat the pool because we weren't going to be here but changed our mind last minute to stay Friday. The owner called, after I send an email, and was nice and accommodating. My son caught a fish from the backyard with one of the garage poles. We took Friday as a sleep in morning and it was the association landscape day so they were cutting hedges and mowing grass at 8:15, but we also know this stuff has to be done! (not sure if it's always Fridays as you make your plans.) Walmart is about a mile away and so convenient to grab any last minute items or morning donuts. The store has a huge Disney section if you want to buy t-shirts, lanyards or a special coffee mug! We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again when we visit the Orlando area.

Great location to Disney
We enjoyed our stay in this home. House was very large and accommodating for a group to venture to the parks in Orlando. One small complaint in that there wasn’t any hand soap or any toilet paper in the house. Other than that would recommend this to anyone.

Gorgeous home
This lovely home was perfect for our family of 9. It was spacious, clean and had stunning views of the sunsets over the water. We all enjoyed the pool, game room, fishing, and watching the baby ducks. The owners were very accommodating with allowing us to arrive a day early when we changed our flight due to weather. Nothing was overlooked and we would be lucky to stay there again!

Relaxing, clean home, private pool, great rate
Just as described. Loved to relax by the pool, so many birds come to visit. Only suggestions, bring some salt, pepper, shampoo, pool toys and bottled water. The water in Florida tastes TERRIBLE, but that is the whole state. The bed next to the pool was a little hard, mind you, we sleep on a waterbed, but we slept well on it, even though it was firm. Other beds upstairs felt softer, but we didn't want to have to use the stairs. House was very clean, owners friendly, would definitely recommend renting here. Living room furniture, so comfortable to watch TV. Towels thick and snow white. One more suggestion. The washer is VERY deep, if you use the two pickle ball ? rackets in the garage as tongs, you can get your clothes out of the bottom, OR we discovered a step stool in the garage on our last day. We were laughing as we had to work together to retrieve the laundry. This place is great!!!

Dangerous and unsafe run
The pool and hot tub have not been maintained at all. There was no chlorine or bromine in either. The owners response was it's ok. A girl recently died in Florida because the pool she was in was growing dangerous bacteria because it was not treated to a high enough standard. The pool and hot tub here show none. The property manager agreed to a refund. We left and now a month later they are disputing the refund.

Charming
The house was beautiful and looked exactly like the pictures. The neighborhood was very quiet and the maintenance men we extremely nice and very quick with responding. However the place was dirty. There was a brown film in the hot tub like it wasn’t clean, the sheets in the master bedroom were not clean, there was hair in the bathrooms, the downstairs bathroom had rips in the shower curtain, dishes in the cabinets were dirty. Wires hanging from where the old smoke detectors use to be. When I reached out to the owner he just ignored my messages. We ended up cleaning the hot tub ourselves as well as the bedding. If they are charging a cleaning service there should be some type of cleaning done. Besides that we did enjoy our time there.

House is great. But it could be better
The house is great! But it feels abandoned. Luckily there is a Walmart 5 minutes from the house because you need to buy a lot. Only one roll of toilet paper per bathroom (no extras) no soap, not cleaning supplies. The high chair was dirty and the head of the pool sticks were broken. This house has so much potential but it needs some TLC. The net by the pool was ripped and I was always afraid some bug may come in. It has a beautiful view of the lake. And the pool is small but perfect. My sister and father couldn't sleep because they said the mattress were very uncomfortable. Mine was fine. The house has so much potential it just needs a little love. Get ready to buy a lot of supplies at Walmart. Overall we had a great time. I just think they could leave more supplies (like soap, dish washer, toilet paper, cleaning supplies, etc) and it needs more love. The location is great. 25 minutes to the parks. It's a house that you can love, it just needs a little TLC.. and new mattresses.

Wonderful time was had by all.
My family and I had a fantastic stay. My kids - 5 & 7 y.o loved playing in the pool, in fact, they spent most of the week in there! We also did a bit of fishing in the pond behind the house. The whole house was nice and clean, with everything we need. The house is perfectly located, with plenty of shops around. And conveniently located for Sea World and All Disney parks. The property manager was very responsive, as well as the owners, we had an issue with the pool temperature due to a few chilly Florida nights. The property manager came within a few minutes and adjusted the pool heater timer to come on earlier. The kids were so delighted! We had a great time and would definitely stay again in the future.

Beautiful & quiet
This home was exactly what we were looking for. The neighborhood was quiet, and we were able to spend our days relaxing in the heated pool. The bed in the downstairs master is extremely firm, but since it was just two of us we were able to find a bed to suit us. Everything was clean and updated. We will definitely be back.

About the host

Host profile image
We love the Florida lifestyle. We visit our Florida home twice a year and replace or upgrade something every time for continuous improvement.

Why they chose this property

We looked at many homes. This one stood out due to the bright airy look and feel. As you walk in the front door, your eyes are drawn straight to the pool deck and lake.
Lake Berkley is a beautiful peaceful resort kept immaculately by our valued team of landscapers.

What makes this property unique

We love spending time under the lanai on the spacious pool deck relaxing and watching the ever changing wildlife.
