We're trying out AllStar Vacation Homes

I'm so excited. We have never stayed off property, but it was cheaper than staying anywhere onsite during end of May/June. And the kids are going to just flip out with the little private splash pool. Check it out. I love the color and theming the owners did.

We stayed at a Windsor Palms 3 bedroom condo last May/June and it was very nice! For 4 adults and 3 kids, it was the best option for price - not to mention space! After we picked up our packet of info and first drove to the community, it seemed so far away. But it wasn't, really. Just figure to add on an extra 10 minutes drive time, not bad at all. The community pool was large too, and there's a nice little playground right outside the pool. The one you picked out looks like it's decorated beautifully! I hope you have a great time!!!!!!!!

We've always talked about renting through All Star - the homes look wonderful, and the price is definitely right. I just hate the idea of staying off-site! Maybe one day I'll manage to pull myself away.

Okay, I want the bedroom with the wall mural and surfboard. Love it! The splash pool would be wonderful too!

Enjoy!

Tina, we've used AllStar numerous times and have never been disappointed. The homes are close to Disney but yet you can really relax when you are at the house. I love having the private pools, washer-dryer and kitchen area plus we love having our own bedrooms.

Your place looks really cute! FYI - since you're staying off property, Dollar rental has some good 1 week deals on rental cars if you use an AmEx card.
