The Magical
Get ready to wow your guests with the most stunning, well-located estate guaranteed to give you maximum bang for your buck. The location on International Drive can’t be beat, just minutes from buzzing shops, dining, entertainment, and best of all–Universal Orlando! But first you’ll need to pull yourself away from all the epic in-house amenities: 7 spacious & stunning bedrooms–including 2 themed kids’ rooms, a game loft, sparkling pool & spa, and patio dining table under a shaded lanai.
Kindly Note: While this home is finished & fabulous, the resort's amenity center and remaining units are under construction; amenities will be open in early 2025.

When it’s time to eat, gather around the long dining table, which easily seats 10 in its modern, two-tone chairs.

Pool & Patio: Make a splash with your gang and bask under the Florida sun in your own outdoor haven ensconced in a privacy screen. Dive into the glittering pool, lounge on chaises, or play foosball on the patio. No need to dry off when it’s time to eat—you can happily dine alfresco under the covered lanai.

Game Loft: The second-floor loft is your go-to spot for fun and laid-back luxury. Unleash your competitive spirit at the card table, jive to the jukebox beats, and shuffle your way to victory at the shuffleboard table or wall scrabble. Plop onto the plush, oversized leather couch to shmooze, nap, or catch your favorite show on the big-screen TV that doubles as a video game stations.
Bedrooms (Kings, Queen & Fulls): Just wait until you see the five fabulous sanctuaries awaiting your crew after action-packed days in Orlando—two on the main floor and three more upstairs. Each room features chic design touches, super comfy beds, flat-screen TVs, luxe en-suite bathrooms, and thoughtful amenities. Unique decorative wall panels lend aesthetic flair, while soothing hues (think blues, greens, and natural tones) set a calm mood for a perfect night’s rest.
Themed Bedrooms:
Bricktopia
(4 twins) Build your dreams (literally) in this incredible themed bedroom that brings to life a colorful world made entirely out of toy bricks! Behold the bunk bed: a whimsical structure that echoes the creative designs of a child at play. On one side, find a cozy brick house with windows and a white picket fence, and on the other, a towering fortress that reaches for the stars. Nestled between them, a tall brick-crafted tree grows from the ground to the ceiling. All around, the walls come alive with a lively scene: a big blue sky, red building, trees, flowers, and grass–adding a touch of nature to this colorful, imaginative landscape.
Petting Zoo
(4 twins) Counting sheep takes on new meaning in this home’s adorable petting zoo-themed bedroom! Your littles will drift into dreamland surrounded by lifelike sheep and more of their fave barn buddies. The bunk bed is designed to look like the entryway to “Busy Bee Farm,” complete with a wooden plank fence across the facade, a feed station, chickens hanging out from above and cats snoozing on a barrel next to the top bunk ladder. The immersive wall-to-wall mural paints a picturesque scene of rolling hills, swans gracefully swimming, cows grazing, and pigs frolicking in the hay – a farm fantasy that ensures a sleepover like no udder (badum-bum)!

Select units at Villatel Orlando Resort are dog-friendly! Additional fees apply. Please contact the Guest Services team for more information on our dog-friendly units and to inquire about availability: (407) 972-1183 or stay@villatel.com.
It’s about a 10-minute drive to Universal Orlando and about 20 minutes to Disney World, depending on traffic and the park(s) you are visiting.
Yes! We now offer shuttle service to and from the parks; use the shuttle link in your pre-arrival email or welcome guide to reserve your seats up to 48 hours prior to riding. Seats are limited and reservations are required to board!
Not at this time; however, Play Cards for Dezerland Park Orlando are included in the resort fee and redeemable for epic rides, games, exhibits, and more!
While our accommodations are not ADA accessible, we are more than happy to arrange for a ramp to be installed at your front door to provide easier access. This option is available for an additional fee.
We are eagerly anticipating the opening of our amenity center in late 2024/ early 2025! Our accommodations are priced at a discounted rate until our amenities are up and running.
The resort fee covers a host of benefits guests enjoy during every stay, including shuttle service to and from Disney & Universal, complimentary Play Cards for rides, games, & exhibits at Dezerland Park Orlando, WiFi, parking, starter house supplies and toiletries, and convenient access to our dedicated concierge and maintenance team.
Pool & spa heat is available for a daily add-on fee that varies depending on the pool's size. Once heated, pool temperatures are set to reach 82-86 degrees Fahrenheit; spas are set to reach 102 degrees Fahrenheit. Depending on the weather, it can take up to 24 hours to heat the pool, so it is recommended that you reserve pool heat in advance of your stay if you’d like to add this service.
No, pool heat distributes heat to both the pool and the spa simultaneously; the spa will not be warm if pool heat isn’t turned on. Turn the manual timer on the lanai wall to turn on the spa jets and heat the spa up to 102 degrees Fahrenheit. Note that the spas are not “hot tubs”; they will not reach temperatures usually associated with hot tubs and cannot be heated as stand-alone spas. When the jets are on, the heat will be directed toward the spa and away from the pool.
‘Cold fronts’ in the winter months (i.e. temps below 60 degrees) can cause the pool equipment to stop functioning; this does not constitute mechanical failure and refunds for pool heat will not be issued.
Each of our 6+ bedroom units features a spa. 4- and 5- bedroom units do not feature a spa.
Yes, all of our pools are equipped with a child-friendly safety gate between the lanai and the pool area.
If you prefer to have a car to get around during your stay, we recommend renting from any of the major car rental companies at the airport. However, we do offer shuttle service to and from Disney and Universal, and we’re conveniently located near the city’s best shopping and dining—so you may cut costs and hassle by taking Ubers/ Lyfts instead of renting a car!
You are permitted 2-3 vehicles depending on the size of your unit. Each of our 4-7-bedroom accommodations include parking passes for up to two vehicles per home. Our 9-bedroom accommodations include parking passes for up to three vehicles.
You're allocated 1 parking space near your home. This space is marked with the numbers in your home's address. You are most welcome to use 1 overflow parking space (for 1-7 bedroom reservations) or 2 overflow parking spaces (for 9-bedroom reservations) in any of the resort’s community lots nearest to your unit. Kindly adhere to these designated areas during your stay to avoid ticketing or towing at your expense. While at the resort, you must display your villa's designated parking pass in the front dashboard or rearview mirror of every vehicle. Parking passes may not be shared and may be revoked in the event of parking violations.
