We are going to WDW in June next year but are staying off site in a Villa...I will be buying a 14 Day Ultimate ticket...how does this work with Fastpass+? Will I be able to pre book my fastpasses or will I only be able to do it once I get to the park ?

As an off property guest, you have to book your fastpasses from 5am (UK time) , 30 days prior to your visit. However, unlike resort guests, the 30 day rule applies to each day of your stay, so you cannot simply book all your FPs 30 days prior to your first day's stay.
I have been getting up at 4.30am for the last couple of mornings to do this.
I got what I wanted, but I noticed IllumiNations at Epcot was not available, and I'm assuming I won't be able to obtain Wishes or Fantasmic!.
Fantasmic! I'm told is not worth an FP+. Apparently seating is not guaranteed and you still have to arrive early and queue, e.g. one hour before. If anybody else knows different or has personal experience please let us all know. Thanks.
The only other advice I can offer, apart from using
MDE at the 30 day mark and knowing precisely what you want as well as backup plans, is to eliminate one attraction by planning to get to the parks at rope drop.
