We enjoyed our time staying at Baloo's Magic in Florida.
The beds were comfortable except for the queen-size bed which was a little stiffer than most people would like and some complained about bedsheets making them feel itchy. (not sure if they were sensitive or if it was something else) My wife and I stayed in the master suite and the king bed was wonderful. The bathrooms were clean and worked well for the 9 of us. The kitchen was stocked with pretty much most standard items and we also used the grill. TVs worked properly and it was nice to have our own access to a private pool. Wouldn't mind coming back to this house again if a few more updates were made. My parents rented a 7-bedroom villa and theirs was much nicer, but still thought it was a good place to stay despite all of the comments. Thanks for letting us have a great vacation here.

Owner Response: we are pleased to know these guests enjoyed their stay at Baloo's Magic. We checked all the sheets to be in good condition after these guests departed and all seems to be in good condition. We would love to host these guests again in the future.
We enjoyed the villa very much. Everything was clean and just as described. The house was large enough for a party of 12, and the resort security was excellent. We will definitely use th emerald island vacation resort again. We hated having to leave. Thank you for an awesome vacation experience.
Had 4 adults and 2 children in our party. The house was clean and well maintained. Only issue we had was the outside grill propane tank was empty. I contacted Sri and by the next day, we had a full tank. All the Disney Parks were less than 10 minutes away..even with the traffic on the 192. Very, very pleased and we WILL be renting from Sri again.
We stayed at Baloo’s for two weeks in April 24, and were pleasantly surprised. The villa is located excellently for the parks, comfortable and clean, with great facilities. We had minor issues with pool filter but it was resolved very quickly. Sri is great and excellent communications all round. Recommend for those of you needing easy access to theme parks, supermarkets and restaurants. It’s all on your doorstep. Gated community is very well maintained and picturesque. We enjoyed our holiday and will be back. Thanks Sri
We had a fantastic experience, absolutely could not find fault with any aspect of our stay,from the security at the main gate,to the lovely couple who arrived to clean as we were leaving.Spotless clean, everything you could possibly need in vacation rental, thanks so much to all involved,the Judd family.
