About the Resort: Minutes from Disney and Orlando's top attractions, this exceptional resort features 71 expansive, ultra-unique villas and estates, as well as incredible resort amenities—including a state-of-the-art Event & Conference Center, which plays host to exclusive programming, events, and classes, and can be reserved for private functions. Guests also receive complimentary access to a covered playground, sports courts, and a grand resort pool with a lazy river, water slide, and on-site dining.
Entrance/Great Room: Enter through the grand foyer and you’ll see that every inch of this sumptuous home is built to impress. The adjoining great room, with its upscale lobby-style furnishings and oversized TV, gives the impression that you’ve stepped into your own posh and private resort hotel.
Kitchen/Dining Room: It’s a joy to whip up delectable meals in the beautiful, open-plan chef’s kitchen, which boasts custom blue and white cabinetry, brushed brass fixtures, white marble countertops, and light wood grain floors. Take a seat at the roomy kitchen island with stools and enjoy breakfast or a happy hour snack.
Later, lay out a feast in the spacious separate dining room that seats up to 16 guests. Bonus: If you plan to host an event or business meeting, it’s a snap to transition this space into the perfect conference room.
Golf Simulator Room: If you and your guests enjoy golf, you’re in luck: The garage has been transformed into a simulated golf wonderland. Hone your swinging and putting skills, and experience the thrill of (virtually) playing some of the most popular courses in the world.
Arcade Room: Just next door, follow the colorful wall designs and blinking lights to this epicenter of fun and games. Here you can play to your heart’s content on the arcade favorites of your youth, from Pac-Man and air hockey to a classic smash-up racing game.
Pool & Patio: Soak up the Florida sun in your very own colossal, fully screened private pool, just outside the patio doors. This airy oasis features 10 relaxing poolside loungers—plus 2 loungers in the pool!—as well as games galore, from pool basketball and a mini waterslide, to ping-pong and foosball on the patio.
You can even take meals or meetings outside, where a covered lanai offers even more seating and a spectacular outdoor kitchen. Florida BBQ, anyone? Before you dig in, rinse off in the luxe outdoor shower. *This* is the good life.
Game Loft: Back inside, there’s plenty more fun to uncover. Head upstairs to bask in the offerings of an impressive game loft with a pool table, darts, ring toss, wall Scrabble, and more.
Movie Theater: Or, you can choose laid-back relaxation, thanks to the private movie theater with its comfy seats, 86-inch screen, and surround sound. The kids will be thrilled when they realize the front row of mini recliners is custom-designed just for them!
Fitness Room: Go ahead and squeeze in a workout in your private gym, featuring the latest stationary bike and free weights. There’s even a smart TV that can connect to apps for virtual training sessions. (Note: The treadmill featured in the gym photo will not be in the home.)
Themed Bedrooms: The kids in your group will be overjoyed to discover the over-the-top themed rooms, which double as fantastically creative playrooms.
Their first option is the Brick Builder’s room: a happy, colorful construction site in the middle of a bustling city, where your little builders can climb over giant blocks to reach the top bunk, and then zip down their very own spiral slide. Vivid wall art depicts animated movie scenes, and hidden bunk beds make for inviting sleep spaces.
Next door, the Shuttle Mission room is waiting for aspiring astronauts of all ages. Young explorers won’t believe their luck when they set foot on their very own miniature rocket ship, complete with lifelike NASA equipment. A hidden twisting slide is ready in case they want to parachute back to earth, and cozy bunk beds invite a celestial night’s rest.
Bedrooms (King, Queen, and Full): Designed to pamper the grownups in your group, nine more bedrooms on the first and second floors are luxuriously outfitted in Organic Modern style (think: top-quality finishes, a mix of clean lines and natural materials, and a comfortable-yet-stylish neutral palette).
On the first floor are three conveniently located sanctuaries, including two master bedrooms with king-size beds, and a master queen bedroom with a double door walkout to the pool area. On the second floor, in addition to the two themed kids’ rooms, find six more gorgeously appointed bedrooms with king or full beds. Each bedroom comes with its own luxe en suite bathroom.

Featured Villas
See all accommodationPool & spa heat is available for a daily add-on fee. 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. When the jets are on, the heat will be directed toward the spa and away from the pool. Note that the spas are not “hot tubs”; they will not reach temperatures usually associated with hot tubs and cannot be heated on their own, separate 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.
Yes, every pool at Villatel Village features a spa.
Yes, all of our pools are equipped with a child-friendly safety gate between the lanai and the pool area.
To make sure you have the smoothest trip possible, we recommend renting a car after you arrive from any of the major car rental companies. It’s the quickest and easiest way to get to all of your Orlando vacation destinations, as well as shopping and restaurants. And the rental companies are located right inside the airport, so you don’t have to waste a minute on a shuttle.
Up to 5 cars are permitted per reservation.
If you’ve reserved a 6-bedroom villa, you can park 2-3 standard size cars in the driveway. 11- and 12- bedroom units fit up to 5 standard size cars in the driveway. If extra parking is needed, there are designated street parking spots throughout Solterra Resort (marked by white lines). These overflow spots are not located within the Villatel Village neighborhood of the resort; they are ~.5 - 1 mile away. Cars parked on the grass or blocking a driveway/sidewalk will be towed. Every car MUST obtain a parking pass upon entry into the community from the front gate and always display it on their dashboard. RVs, large vans, tractors, and buses are not permitted inside the resort.
Please place bagged trash in the bin outside your villa for collection. Pick-up begins as early as 6am, so please plan accordingly for same-day pick-ups. Loose trash will not be picked up; please ensure all trash is bagged and properly tied up.
