STR's in Kissimmee, FL

Michael Elliott
Posted

Have been analyzing data in STR Insights following a great week at the STR Wealth Conference in Nashville. Since we live in Orlando area, we are looking at a STR in Disney area. Does anyone have knowledge of Enclave or Solara? Making sure we can manage our own properties in these areas.

For Enclave, it seems that if we manage and post on Airbnb, our guests cannot use the water park/amenities.  Would like confirmation on that though.

For Solara, there seems to be no restrictions but a lot of houses for sale. Does anyone know the appetite of the HOA? Are they trying to push STR's out?

    @Michael Elliott

    Solara is just one of many resort communities that are specifically built for STR. A few of the other top communities that you want to consider are Championsgate, Solterra, Windsor Island, Windsor Hills, Paradise Palms, Windsor at Westside, Storey Lake. These are all STR communities that have similar amenities, close to Disney and have various sized homes that do well in the STR space.

    None of these communities will be changing to residential neighborhoods, although a couple do have residential 'sides' that full time residents live in and can not be rented short term.

    Two of the big communities that you will have some issues with self managing are Reunion and Margaritaville. These both have restrictions on membership/guest amenity usage. I personally would stay away from condo-tels as they will be even worse and you'll have less opportunity to cash flow. 

    Hope this helps, best of luck!
