Orlando - Disney STR market

Posted

Hi - Does anyone have recommendations for a STR property / resort in the Orlando area ? Looking for an area that is safe. Planned to use for family and rent out the remaining time of the year.

@Sheril Varghese, An hour drive could be 10 miles from Disney sometimes, LOL! 1-2 beds would just be a condo then, most townhomes are 3-5 beds in the vacation resorts. You have plenty of options..even condo-hotels which I would generally not recommend as the fees and management agreements are too restrictive. But if you plan to use it alot personally, it may be a good option. Condos in general have higher HOA fees, so that is something to consider, but as long as you enjoy the amenities and get good use and feel safe that is most important.

Depending on if you like other activities personally, like golf and higher end resorts, Reunion or The Grove would be a good choice. Lifestyle choice would be Margaritaville or for just a nice place with a decent amenity center/clubhouse, you have lots of choices.
