Villa Location
Our villa can be found in the quiet villa community of Doral Woods, tucked away on South Poinciana Boulevard, yet still only 15-20 minutes from Disney - perfect for a middle-of-the-day rest break from the theme parks, and a real opportunity for relaxation by the unoverlooked south facing pool away from the busier roads of the more northern communities.
With a choice of Wal-Mart stores on the US192 and a Publix just minutes away in Poinciana town, you are never too far from a supermarket for the essentials (and luxuries) you require. Mailboxes are blue, normally bearing the USPS arrowhead logo, and are located throughout any area you are in. The nearest mailbox to the villa is literally a short walk, just three properties to the left of the villa.
The nearest petrol stations are a 7-eleven and a Spar on S. Poinciana Boulevard as you head up towards the 192 area, just after the railroad crossing. Please note that they often require pre-payment for fuel before you pump.
Looking for somewhere to eat out? Everyone has different tastes, and the 192 provides a huge selection of restaurants and take aways for your enjoyment. On the corner of N. Poinciana Boulevard is a Perkins restaurant, while the cheap and cheerful (and extremely filling) menu choices of Denny's are a couple of blocks on the 192 towards Disney. Below are links to a small selection.
For those plugging the details into mapping software, the zip code for this area is FL 34758.
There are various car hire services available to enable you to get around easier - most theme parks do however charge for parking. Dollar, Alamo, and Budget are the most popular rental companies in orlando. When staying in a villa, you can often pick up a bargain flydrive package, so you can pick up the car before you leave the airport.
It is advisable to familiarise yourself with the different traffic laws in Florida - there are a few that would catch first time drivers off-guard, including the turn right through a red light rule, and the license plate visibility regulation - when parking, you should always, where possible, drive in nose first, leaving the rear of the car visible so the license plate is on display for the local authorities should they be cruising past or in search of a particular vehicle.
