Highgrove villas

[jockey]

Anyone ever stayed at villa at Highgrove. What is the area like and what's the travel time to the Magic kingdom? TIA

Would the Emerald Island resort be better?

Would the Emerald Island resort be better?

Yes.

Emerald Island is a very nice villa development, one of the best.
Ideally located near the Formosa Gardens area in Kissimmee, close to the 192 junction and within easy reach of a Publix Supermarket, restuarants, 10-15 minutes from Disney and the I4 close by too.

Basically the location is perfect and the homes very nice.
Probably slightly more expensive than where we usually stay at Indian Creek, but EI is a good choice.

We stayed at the Highgrove Resort in 2004 (433 Summerplace Loop to be precise!) We loved it - I am sure there are closer developments to Disney but we found it lovely. Despite being practically adjacent to the I4 we had virtually no traffic noise in our back yard pool area and had the convenience of the supermarkets and eateries of the 192 very near by.
