About this property

5000-307 - 2 BED, 2 BATH, POOL AND LAKEVIEW

We believe this is one of the best located condos at Vista Cay; 3rd floor, both pool and lakeview, located directly by the main pool area at Vista Cay. With two bedrooms, two bathroom, you have all the space you need for a great stay. Why stay in a crowded hotel when you can be in a spacious condo ?

Note: The pool area, and tiki bar, right outside our condo will be closed for refurbishment between September 13th, and likely mid April 2025. (Last update 03/27). Planned reopening date was Mid January. Further delays might happen. The clubhouse with 24/7 front desk, fitness center will remain open.
The Isles pool and bar, which is recently refurbished, is open all time. It's about 500 yards to walk to that pool, a nice stroll along Lake Cay. Alternatively, there is a "golf cart shuttle" from the clubhouse right outside our condo. Or you can take your car, there are lots of parking spaces there.

Vista Cay is very centrally located in Orlando between Universal Blvd and I-Drive. (so not Kissimmee). We have everything within 5 to 15 minutes drive : Disney, Universal, Sea World, Waterparks, the airport, outlet malls and malls and golf courses. Several restaurants at Vista Cay, and even more at I-Drive less than a mile away. Convention or event at Orange County Convention Center? OCCC is just 0.5 Mile away from Vista Cay.

Great Condo!!
This property is beautiful!! The condo is nicely decorated, comfortable and very clean. The property and grounds are immaculate. There’s a beautiful walking path around the lake with birds. The pool and on site bar/food is open late which was really nice. Walgreens pizza, coffee shop, cup cake and ice cream store are all in walking distance. The location is very easy to get around Orlando. Communication with the owner was awesome. check in/check out was simple. The property is a gated community with ample parking and an elevator. I can only come up with very positive things to say about this property!! I want to go back!!!

Birthday Getaway
The property management was amazing. We stayed the weekend for my daughters birthday with her friends and the staff was so accommodating! I asked if someone was able to put some decorations up in the room for us and Jessica totally blew us away, thank you so much! The property was clean and inviting and everything we needed for a weekend getaway. It did have a hotel feel but all in all it was pleasant.

Fall break trip from IN
We were in the area for a conference at the Orange County Convention Center, then a few days in Disney/Universal Studios. This condo was super close to the convention center, and also close to so many things (very convenient). Parking was very easy, and the access to the pool was nice. The condo itself had very comfortable beds, and the bathrooms were very spacious. The kitchen had the basic items we needed. We also got groceries at the Publix which was within walking distance (less than 5min walk). Overall very pleased with the condo and would definitely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Havard Valderhaug

Host profile image
We are the Valderhaug family from Molde, Norway in Europe. Dad Håvard works as an IT guy daytime. Hobbies are bicycling and cars, especially my -85 Corvette.

Daughters Stine and Guro are co-owners. Stine works as a store manager in a cell phone store. Interested in everything electronic, motorcycles and cars. Only thing that beats a BMW, is the Corvette. Or perhaps a Raptor.

Youngest daughter Guro is still at school, senior high school now. Works as a hanbdall trainer, in a clothing store and a hairdresser. Plays handball, and have plans to be a physiotherapist.

We love to travel, and have been to Orlando 3-4 weeks every year since we bought our first condo in 2007. Many years combined with other places in US.

We bought our first condo together with some colleagues in 2007. In 2009, after realizing how well we enjoyed Vista Cay and Orlando, we bought our own condo. Now we have these three condos in the same building, and have bought out the other owners.

Why they chose this property

We have three great condos, in the building closest to the main pool area and clubhouse. Our two bedroom Condo 5000-307 is located 3rd floor, both pool and lakeview. Three bedroom 5000-403 is located top floor, corner unit, with park and lakeview. Three bedroom Condo 5000-408 is located top floor, corner unit, also both lake and pool view. With several condos in the same building, we have often rented to families travelling together. You get to stay close together, while you all have the privacy of your own condo.

Main pool area has a large regular pool, jacuzzi, and kids pool. All for free use. Clubhouse has a 24/7 reception, fitness center, gift shop, tiki bar, game room, cinema, toilets and showers.

You also have a gigantic Publix supermarket on the resort. And a top rated NYPD Pizza restaurant, Asian and Subway restaurant.

Vista Cay is located on Universal Blvd, just off International Drive. I-Drive is considered as the tourist center in Orlando, with a wide variety of restaurants, bars and attractions.

Vista Cay is located in the middle between all theme parks. For Universal Studio: Exit Vista Cay, take left, drive for 5-10 minutes. Sea World and Aquatica also about 5 minutes drive. The Disney parks, 15 minutes. The Airport, 15 minutes.

The two large outlets at each side of I-Drive, about 10 minutes drive. As is Florida Mall, while Mall at Millenium are about 15 minutes.

What makes this property unique

Ideal for families travelling together : Three great condos in the same building. Compared to renting a larger house : Stay close with your friends, while you have the privacy of your own condo.
