Thanks we are frequent visitors and stay was amazing! Would recommend!

The Palms. Luxurious, pool, golf/bird pond view

Private Villa by Lake Sumter Square
I had a truly wonderful stay at Laura’s Airbnb this week! From the moment I arrived, Laura was incredibly helpful and welcoming. She’s not only a fantastic host but also a wealth of knowledge about the area—her recommendations made my trip even more enjoyable. The place itself was spotless, cozy, and full of charm. Every little detail showed care and thoughtfulness. Laura went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and accommodated. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend! If you're lucky enough to stay here, you're in for a treat. Five stars, two thumbs up.

Moultrie Creek Retreat with Golf Cart!
The photos didn't do this home justice! The home is beautiful, spacious, clean, and provides you with anything and everything you would need to feel right at home. The hosts are quick to respond and helpful to accommodate all your needs. This being said, they communicate well before hand with clear instructions how to get your guest id. Be sure to read everything they send, so you can take advantage of all the great things around the villages. If we're in town for a basketball tournament again, we will definitely choose this home! Thank you for everything!

Gorgeous Lakefront home
Beautiful property and view. Very peaceful. Love the decor. Gotta get me a jellyfish lamp like this one! So cool! Very clean and little extras made me smile. Bows made out of paper towels and tissues and stamps to seal the toilet paper. Fancy! Shampoo, bandaids, tape and toothpaste and pool towels all available, helped too. GRE place. I’d rent again!

I had a great time at the Cozy Cottage. This place was clean and the beds were nice. Tons to do close by as well. I would definitely stay again. Thanks again to the hosts.

Near Town Squares, Large Lanai, Golf Cart Included
Very nice and comfortable accommodations. Excellent location near Sumter Landing. The Terra Del Sol pool was fantastic. We enjoyed the lanai in the evenings and had a nice evening cooking on the grill. We would definitely come back.

Golf Cart, King Bed, Small Dogs, and Water System!
Judy is a great host very responsive and helpful. The house was exactly as described & beautifully decorated & spotless. We appreciated the supplies like shampoo, conditioner, soap, coffee, extra bed, linens, etc. the bed was extremely comfortable in the master. We stayed for a family party. The house was conveniently located only about a 15 minute golf cart ride from Brownwood and 15 or 20 minute ride to Everglade, which is where our party was. The golf cart is definitely a plus for getting around the villages. Thank you so much, Judy for sharing your house with us for the weekend. We definitely had a great time and would absolutely recommend your house!

Fabulous Courtyard Villa close to Sumter Landing
We had a fantastic stay at Gayle’s home. The home more than exceeded our expectations. The home is in a great location. Walkable to the rec centre for pickleball and choice of pools. Close to the market square where great restaurants and live music are available every night. The golf cart was definitely an added bonus and we would highly recommend it as a way to tour the villages. Gayle is a great host, very responsive to our questions and always available to assist. We hope to have the opportunity to stay at this wonderful location again.

The Sunshine Retreat with Golf Car

Designer Home in The Villages, FL.
Beautiful, beautiful place. Felt right at home....even better than my home as convenient first floor living. Quite neighborhood, many amenities in the house. Safe and clean environment conveniently located in The Villages.

Lovely Largo Lantana
We enjoyed our stay. The house is clean, spacious and has comfortable seating . Instructions were clear and Deanna was very communicative and responsive. The only issue is that the bathroom floor, at least in the primary bathroom, is very slippery when wet. I would not feel comfortable having my 83 yr old mother walk on the floor after it is wet. I put a towel on the floor for myself, and that was ok.

Getaway on the Waterway: Kayak, SUP, fish, relax!
We really liked this place. Everything was very clean, the kitchen was very well-equipped, there was a beautiful view, and it was very quiet. Laura was very friendly and always responded promptly. I highly recommend her place!

The Sandpiper Villa
Sandpiper is a beautiful home away from home. We visited the Villages to attend my father’s 85th Birthday celebration and party. The Sandpiper is beautifully decorated and the coffee station was so convenient and needed for all the family activities leading up to the party. This two bedroom property was spacious for the 6 of us and very convenient to get to the squares like Saltgrass and Brownwood and grocery stores like Publix. And once Eastport opens you’ll be right there in minutes. The manager owners were extremely helpful and responsive to any questions we had. Would highly recommend Sandpiper to anyone visiting the Villages.

Ensō House Relax in the heart of The Villages
We were pleasantly surprised upon entering Enso House for the first time. Everything was so clean and orderly. We really appreciated your welcome note and all the little touches to make us feel comfortable. It has been a pleasure being here and enjoying all the facilities in the Villages! Thank you for your attention to detail that made our stay so enjoyable.

Willie’s Place w/ Golf Cart, Hot Tub & Lanai | Dog
Tami’s Airbnb is perfection. Centrally located between Sumter and Brownwood Squares. The home is spacious, clean, comfortable (including beds). Well stocked kitchen, linens, shampoo/conditioner, face/body wash. The hot tub was clean and ready to go. The street rod “aka golf car” was super fun and had lots of pep. Lastly and most importantly, Tami is the best communicator. She is a five-star host. We had a wonderful stay and would book this airbnb without hesitation. Thank you Tami!!!

Your guide to The Villages
All About The Villages
Comprising more than a dozen planned retirement communities and neighborhoods and three unique downtown squares, The Villages is designed to cater to every whim of recreation and entertainment, all within a short drive of Florida’s dual coastlines. The Villages’ history goes back to the 1960s, when the area’s land tracts were sold via mail order. Officially named The Villages in 1992, the community has grown in leaps and bounds. It now spans 32 square miles and is one of the fastest-growing metropolitan areas in the state. Featuring bungalows, patio villas, and custom homes, The Villages’ offerings have grown with the development. The area is home to 50 golf courses and boasts more than 2,700 social clubs; its world-famous polo club draws 30,000 spectators each year.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in The Villages
Typical for central Florida weather, The Villages experiences long, oppressively hot summers and short, cool winters. Due to the humidity, it’s wet pretty much year-round, and cloud cover can come and go quickly depending on the winds. Temperatures average in the high 80s and low 90s Fahrenheit in the summertime, waver between the 70s and 80s during the shoulder seasons, and very seldom drop below 40 degrees in winter. While sunshine is abundant year-round, the best time to visit is late spring or early summer, before things get too sticky. Alternatively, early fall is pleasant.

Located at the southern edge of The Villages, this natural preserve is home to gopher tortoises, alligators, herons, cranes, and other regional wildlife, as well as an impressive variety of native marshland plants.

Lake Griffin State Park
Home to one of the state’s largest live oak trees, this 620-acre park connects Lake Griffin to the Harris Chain of Lakes. It’s the perfect spot to see wildlife like osprey and river otters while canoeing, kayaking, or hiking along the scenic nature trail.
