Nice Home
The home was the perfect layout for 6 adults and four kids. It was decorated beautifully. It was nice to have our own private pool and the resort pool was really big and nice. The kids loved the movie theater, arcade game, and pop a shot basketball game. The place could use some measuring cups and spoons and new pans. There were some random hairs all over the master bathroom floor and shower. It definitely could’ve been cleaned more thoroughly.

Storybook Escape
Villatel contacted us well in advance of our reservation to transfer us to an identical property called Storybook Escape which is just several homes away from Beauty and the Beach. We appreciate they proactively moved us to a different unit.

New house in town
My sons loved the themed room while my husband and I particularly liked the theatre room. It was so convenient that restaurants and marts were nearby, it saved us the hassle of cooking and we mostly ate out. Loved everything.
