"Our
5th trip to Dolphin Song was just as good as previous 4. Weather
as usual very warm. Pool time was the best .. just relaxing.
We saw a Red Cardinal bird and its mate in the flowering bush
- unbelievably colourful, and also an armadillo. We hope to
back in the near future."

"Had
a fantastic time here in Florida. We have been coming here for
15 years and every time just gets better. Weather was lovely,
in the 90's everyday. So much for the children to do and adults
alike. The villa amenities were fantastic. Pool was great and
best of all was the location. We look forward to returning to
Dolphin Song Villa in the near future. Thanks. We'll be back
!!!"

"Fantastic
accommodation. We couldn't have wished for anything more. Everywhere
was so clean, tidy and well stocked with all the little things
that make a real home from home. The kids had a brilliant time
and were really spoilt for choice between the game consoles,
the computer and the hundreds of films to keep them entertained.
The pool was superb and very well used by all and the adults
certainly appreciated the fabulous hot tub. Rest assured, we
will be recommending Dolphin Song Villa to all our friends and
family and hope to be back ourselves in the near future."

"Our
initial impression of Dolphin Song can be summed up in one word:
"Wow!" The villa is beautiful, and it certainly stands
out from the neighbouring properties. The area is lovely and
peaceful. There was a great sense of space within the villa,
the beds and furniture were exceptionally comfortable, the showers
were wonderful and the colour scheme calm and soothing throughout.
We appreciated the access to email, the BBQ and the wide array
of films that were available. It was also very reassuring to
have Susan [property manager] at the end of the telephone line,
should we have any questions or issues."

| "We
had never been to Disney nor rented a private home before for
our vacation. We have always stayed at hotels. I searched over
numerous homes that would accommodate our needs. The presentation
of Dolphin Song caused me to inquire further. Everything from
the time I inquired about the Dolphin Song to the day that we
arrived was really great!!
Chris
he made sure we had everything we needed, including the things
that I didn't think of to ask. He was so very helpful and
treated us like a member of his family.
Once
we finally arrived at Dolphin Song my family, husband and
I were so very excited. Everything that was promised and more
was there for us to enjoy. The pictures on the web site show
the Dolphin Song as a very beautiful place, but it was even
more beautiful in person. Plus, we were so thankful of the
choice we made versus some other family members choice to
stay in a Disney hotel.
Our
stay was like being at a very beautiful exclusive resort but
at the same time with all the comforts of a luxury home. We
really were disappointed when it was time to leave, but we
will definitely be coming back to stay at the Dolphin Song."

"This
was our first holiday in Florida and the villa was a tranquil
place to return to after busy days at the parks. The spa was
great and the kids loved the pool so much there were days they
would rather play in the pool than go out. Inflatables were
a good idea and we added a rubber dingy to your collection along
with some dive rings which were used to help their underwater
swimming, which came on great. The PS2's in the bedrooms were
of great benefit to give the children some chill time and in
doing so gave the adults a welcomed rest to chill out too!"

"Just
thought I would let you know that the Clay family has returned
home safely after 3 fabulous weeks at the Dolphin Song Villa.
We have had a wonderful time at your villa, the many extra touches
such as the PS2s, DVDs and Videos kept the kids entertained
early morning and me entertained late evening. 3 weeks still
does not seem long enough and we are already thinking of our
next trip, so I will be in touch.
I think the video and photos on your web site nearly (not quite)
do the villa justice, but one thing you are under selling
is the location. For people like me who know the area reasonably
well it would be a great selling point that to get to Disney
you dont need to go on the 192 (only across it) or the
I4, with all the back roads and short cuts
Great pool and Spa, heating was well worth it. Many thanks."

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your villa. There were no
problems at all booking "Dolphin Song " villa, absolutely
everything you can think of to make a holiday special was taken
care of .The playstations and DVD's etc kept the kids entertained.
The pool and the "hot spa" were a perfect end to a
day at the parks. This was our eighth visit to Florida, and
we will be back again, God willing."

"Once
again, thank you for a magical time at Dolphin Song Villa -
it was very much a home from home for the two weeks. We feel
re-assured with the villa and the location and hope that we
can continue to be one of your "regulars" for many
years to come. It is a real downer being back home, but we have
the memories of an unforgettable two weeks which has only made
us hungry for more. We sincerely hope that you will remain owners
of Dolphin Song for the long term, because we have no intention
of staying anywhere else for our future holidays in Florida.
Please let us know when your diary opens up, so we can look
forward to yet another unforgettable trip. In the meantime,
our sincere thanks & very best wishes to both of you."

"Our
stay at the villa was faultless. The villa was spacious and
comfortable and well equipped. It's very well situated in a
quiet pleasant location. The travelling to the Disney parks
was only a short car journey. It was great to return to a nice
quiet locale after the hustle and bustle of the days at the
parks, but still only be just a few minutes from a good selection
of restaurants and shops. An excellent first time trip to Florida.
The kids loved the pool. We look forward to a return trip."
