When you consider a [vacation rental] in Orlando Florida, remember one thing,

its all about [location]!
Whether it's an owner rental and you're booking your holiday direct or it's a

holiday rent from an agency check out the location. They nearly all

exaggerate.
All too many times Orlando rentals described as a [disney] rental home are

anything but.
I have seen 'Orlando Villas' advertised when the property home is up to 3

hours drive away from [disney] world of Magic and even further from Orlando

[universal] and [seaworld]. So my advice is get a map and do your research before

you book.
You don't want to spend the first and last two hours of your day driving to

[disney] world in Buena Vista or arriving at [seaWorld], or [universal] studios

tired before you even start.

It might be timely to remind you to make sure that your [car rental] is

adequate for the size of your group; you don't want to be hanging around the

airport or the car rentals office when you arrive, trying to upgrade your car.

Orlando ...
... vacation rental homes are generally very well presented and are

maintained to a very high standard, some Disney vacation homes are advertised

as luxury vacation homes, and depending on your idea of luxury you may be

very pleasantly surprised as the standard of most homes is very high. However

remember that all these [holiday home] rentals, whether near Disney or

otherwise are still holiday rentals and subject to the wear and tear that

this type of business involves. A good management company with a strong

maintenance ethos is essential in the holiday self catering homes business.
So make sure there are plenty of photos of the house and read all the reviews,

Email the management company if they are shown on the website for their

opinion on the home and if there are any things you should know. That way you

have it in writing as a backup if you are not happy or it does not live up to

your expectations. Also a good measure is if the home gets many repeat guests.

(Check out the reviews)
Its also important to look at the language of rental sites, "walking distance"

doesn't mean beach front and "cozy" often times means it's small or

cluttered.
Make sure you pay attention to the details on the website. If it looks

unprofessional, cheap, with a bunch of dead end pages... then, their lack of

effort to impress from the beginning might be a flag to indicate of what is

to come.

Lastly where possible book with a company or home owner that accepts plastic

and pay by credit card.
It gives you security and peace of mind. Don't pay cash!
