Reunion is one of the closest resorts to the Disney parks, you can be on Disney property in about 10 minutes and depending which park another 5-10 mins.

Thanks for sharing, appreciated.

It's improved since it was taken over by CLC, its only townhomes - so no villas. Handy location for walking to shops and restaurants and Old Town is decent for entertainment - not Disney, but other than Disney, what is! I like Encantada better as a townhouse community for budget stays.

It's probably one of the best resorts for generating income to go along with all of the above. One of our most popular locations for that and more!

The resort and homes are currently being built. First homes should be ready at the end of 2023 so you won't be able to vacation there until then. If you want to get the full experience of Windsor Cay now, then check out Windsor Island the sister resort: ua-cam.com/video/f02efL_FpV0/v-deo.html

Glad you found what you were looking for Jesse. Hopefully you can tour it soon!

Thanks, enjoy doing them!

Yes you can. Some of the newer resorts have restrictions on how long an owner can stay. If anyone is interested, I cover the basics in this video: ua-cam.com/video/qGfsax4xapY/v-deo.html

Finding an owner who is actively involved with their property usually provides a much higher instance of satisfied guest. Those owners who make management accountable, generally work with the property management companies that can provide a premium service. Guests tend to ask what the best PMC’s are instead of looking for the best owners. Owner specific websites are the best places to find active owners.

Yes, they did a really great job furnishing. It rents really well because the owners care about offering a great product.

Hi Fraser, agreed. I'm a big Encantada fan. One of my first choices for that price point or a townhouse. Most affordable resorts - great idea for a video, I'll get it on the list! And yes, a Motherwell lad!

Resort rental homes tend not to have yards suitable for pets. Best option would be a home in a short term rental community such as Formosa Gardens: jerrybarker.com/formosa-gardens/ We keep a list of the better ones Here: jerrybarker.com/communities/ Hope that helps find you the best location.

I appreciate you letting us know! I just recently finished an update where I elaborate a little more in this video: ua-cam.com/video/C4EFY8B7_Io/v-deo.html

Thanks! Those locations on your channel are spectacular and the video work crazy great. Awesome channel :)

Hi Tami, I like them all for different reasons. We own in Windsor Island so I that makes me a little bias for that resort. As with anything, there will always be some negative comments in any of the locations, but I would suggest there would be thousands more good ones if people commented more. Unfortunately people generally are quicker to highlight issues so those always seem to come to the surface. We also saw a rise during Covid for different reasons but things seems to be getting better now. You'd have to be really unfortunately to get a bad experience. My best advice is to go with the best management company you can find. A very large percentage of house renting issues comes from bad property management. Discount price could also mean discounted service or quality. You may only get what you pay for. Good luck!

Thank you for your input and replying back! I really appreciate it!

Hi Shane, Davenport is in Polk County, so I'll assume you are comparing Polk and Lake county. They are very similar, we live in Lake ourselves and really like it. This particular location is really nice, first fully amenitized resort in Lake county. Closeness to Disney - maybe a tad closer but nothing that will make any significant difference. I'd also suggest taxes will be about the same but I'll add a note here if we find any significant differences. I'm excited about a new resort in Lake, a little less driving for us! I'll be doing a location update in the next couple of weeks and have more to add. So check back frequently to see the resort as it gets built or subscribe and it will automagically let you know!

Hi Peter, they are only building the 5 bedroom units - it's called the "Castaway". I have a nice video tour of one HERE: ua-cam.com/video/P7WCxEZEm6I/v-deo.html

Won't know the price till released but I expect it will be in the region of 550k. They are excellent, great floor plans with a very decent size pool area and pool.

Hi Peter, not sure what development you are referring to? Be careful with resorts and long term or residential rules, many of the newer resorts have rules against primary residency. A good overview can be found HERE: ua-cam.com/video/qGfsax4xapY/v-deo.html You should do a lot of research before your visit with Rocky.

Hi Peter. I believe nearly all of the resorts we work with allow dogs, there may be a size limit. Each set of resort rules will be different. An important question is whether to allow your pet to stay in your rental. That can be a problem because of guest allergies. Most homes are generally not pet friendly as the assumption is that pet friendly homes rent less. There is also the big put off for renters of pet smells. Most of the resorts do not take a fee from rentals, some have additional usage fees for facilities. Again, something that will be on a resort to resort basis but for the most part they don't take a cut. The HOA is important we have a good explainer video on this page that outlines HOA here: jerrybarker.com/hoa-fees/ We are here to help with the "overwhelming" part, once we know what buyers are looking for and a budget - we can narrow it down for them to a few ideal option pretty quickly. Hope that helps.

Hi Peter. We currently just own the one in Windsor Island: ua-cam.com/video/slfRjEKEVXU/v-deo.html We owned in Paradise Palms, Championsgate and Reunion in the past and we are on the list for a Baymont 8 bed in the first phase at the new Windsor Cay resort. We don't typically rent our homes hard, I generally suggest 65% is a good occupancy. Our 6 bed in Windsor Island rents for an average of $400 a night. Joe Rothfuss of Florida Vacation homes did a really good piece on expected occupancy and rates in this video: ua-cam.com/video/j5IGH1nR_Gc/v-deo.html Cheers!

@@JerryBarker Hi Jerry Enjoyed watching this, but is a little overwhelming in a good way, ie so many choices.I want to ask you if any of the resorts allow owners of properties to have their dog with them or not when they visit? Also would like to know if there are any fee's of any kind that go to the resorts themselves from our earrings or not. My wife and I are not golfers, but do love pool and gym amenities. If owners dogs are allowed I doubt that they would be allowed in the pool areas.. Almost forgot, but very important for us is which resorts DO NOT have HOA's ?

@@peterchirico2153 Hi Peter. I believe all of the resorts we work with allow dogs, there may be a size limit. Each set of covenants will be different. The more important question is allowing your pet to stay in your rental. That can be a problem because of guest allergies.

Most of the resorts do not take a fee from rentals, some have additional usage fees for facilities.

@@JerryBarker Hi Jerry Thanks for the reply. Yes I understand there are some advantages to HOA's ie all the amenities. I currently live in one, but do not like some things like the constant raising of monthly fees and their heavy handiness with rules and regulations. About 4 weeks ago I received a citation from our board with a picture attached of our 10 month old golden reserver pup sitting on our porch looking at whoever the idiot fellow homeowner was that took the picture and submitted the complaint. The citation said it was against the rules to allow your pet on the porch without being attended to and I would be fined pending my reply. When I bought the Town Home our HOA fee was 67.00/mo, now it is 625.00/month. These a a few of the reasons we want to leave California and move to Florida.

Jerry may I ask how much your Windsor home cost all in.? I just watch your Jan. video showing the entire building process start to finish. That was well done, but it leaves me with the above hanging question so I can know if I could afford to do that. Thanks Jerry was a great video.
