A Day at the Beach

We are often asked about where to find the nearest beach to Orlando and how to get there., but here’ You can check out the full details on our article, But here’s a quick reply. The nearest beach is Cocoa Beach, 65 miles away on Florida’s East (Atlantic) coast. It takes no more than an hour to get there from villas in Kissimmee, along the 528 (Beachline) which is a toll road.

Cocoa Beach has beautiful white sand and some good waves for surfing. You can walk for miles just watching the pelicans diving and the occasional dolphin breaking the surface if you’re lucky. There’s a pier with food and amenities and beach rentals for chairs, umbrellas, bodyboard rentals etc. 

Further north is New Smyrna Beach and Daytona Beach – both with hard packed sand that you can pay to access and park on. Daytona has lots of restaurants, amusements, splash parks, car parking and shops overlooking the beachfront. It’s famous for its surfing, fishing pier and the Daytona International Speedway. New Smyrna Beach is much quieter with lovely sand and surf but few amenities. Both beaches can be reached in about 90 minutes along I-4 East.

If your prefer the calm Gulf Coast, Clearwater beach is a lovely sandy beach with soft white sand, plenty of parking lots and beach rentals. It can be busy in all seasons. The warm waters are ideal for sunbathing, swimming and watersports.

Our family of 9 ( 6 adults, 1 1 yr old, one 2 yr old and a 4 yr old) we heated the pool daily and enjoyed at the end of each day, we took off a day from parks and enjoyed the water park at facility and everyone had their own rooms and we watched a movie every night. The house was perfect for a large family.

There was 9 of use total. We used the Encore shuttle service, on site water park. We used the house pool and hot that we paid extra to heat (well worth the extra money) we used the game room in the garage it kept us all busy when we had some down time.

This property is not only exactly as listed, it's better than. The house is beautiful and clean, spacious and well supplied. The house is around 4600 sqft so even though we were a houseful we weren't on top of each other. There is an alarm system on all of the doors that exit to the pool area which was a nice touch with a toddler among our group. We had groceries delivered from the local Publix (no fee if over $35) and shopped for Disney gifts at the Walmart within a couple of miles of the house. We used both the house pool as well as the water park at the heart of the property. Both were lovely. You do have to register at the clubhouse to receive passes that allow you access at gates but the process was minimal and the staff was very welcoming. If there was any drawback, it was that the spa is not heated unless an additional fee is paid. This wasn't discussed anywhere beforehand and although the spa is not advertised as heated it is advertised as a pool and spa ... This was a kick in the gut after the money we spent on the rental of the house but some things you have to decide not to allow to steal your joy, am I right?! Overall, we were extremely pleased with the property and our experience and will be back!

A few of my work/business associates were coming into the Orlando area for a conference and a few days of golf. With all of being from different parts of the country and having not seen each other in more than a year due to Covid, we were looking for something more than the "hotel conference scene". The house was great (just as advertised) and the property management team for check-in was great with being accessible for questions and communication throughout the rental process. Fantastic location, especially for golf, but also access to other destinations. The property is close to many things, yet still has a private and quiet kind of feel. With 6 guys in the house, it was great that everyone had their own bedroom and bath. Even if two (2) of the guys got the "kid themed" bedrooms. Fantastic property, good value for what you get, and great experience with the Owner/management company!

What a great family spot. My grandkids loved the fun bedrooms. And the pool, After a long day at the parks, which were very close, the adults loved the hot tub while the kids played in the pool. This home is very comfortable and very family friendly.
