Themed Bedrooms: The coolest bedrooms ever, these two eye-popping themed rooms double as playhouses—and are surefire memory-makers for the kids in your group.
The “Mouse House” room is a masterpiece styled after everyone’s favorite animated mouse. Wall art features dancing brooms and a starry night sky—while that famous gloved mouse hand and sorcerer’s hat reveal magic tricks amiss. Colorful ladders ascend to sleeping and play areas, and a bright, curvy slide swooshes kids down to the lower bunk bed level.
The “Gamer’s Hideout” room teleports your little ones into their favorite kids’ video games. In this vivid and whimsical space, they’ll join a few beloved animated characters as they explore hidden bunk-bed nooks, climb fanciful stairs, and zip down the twisty, bright green slide.
Bedrooms (King, Queen, & Full): When the grownups in your group are ready to wind down, they can choose from nine beautifully appointed sanctuaries with en suite baths. Spread out over the first and second floors, the choices range from master king and queen bedrooms, to regular bedrooms with a king bed or two full-size beds. Each bedroom’s Transitional style décor—with its contemporary lines, warm textures, and the occasional pop of color—is chic and welcoming. Appointed with the finest materials, the spacious master suites offer tubs and showers, double sink vanities, and walk-in closets.

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.
