Need help finding off-site home for 5 nites

[4our4kids]

My four kids, myself, and a friend are going to Disney Jan 3rd to the 8th, Five nights. My husband tells me this morning he thinks he will now join us! Now I have to rethink the whole thing. I have reservations to stay on site, 2 rooms, and use Disney transportation. Now I'm thinking with a total of 7 of us we might be better renting a home off site and renting a minivan. The only problem is I know nothing about staying offsite and all the home rentals I have found rent for a week at time. I need Tues. thru Sun. Any suggestions?

Hi,

www.quikbook.com has 3 and 4 bed condos at Emeral Island and Terra Verde for renting by the night.

However, read the fine print carefully, as I think thre is a cleanup charge for less than 5 night stay tacked on.

All are sister sites, and you can do an "General Inquiry".
Owners with availability will get back to you..as well as those that are willing to rent for less than 7 night...

You'll probably have to pay a cleaning fee, however

HTH!!..and have fun!

Windsor Palms is a nice complex with 2 and 3 bed condos and 3-6 bed homes. Many owners will rent for less than a week but will often charge a cleaning fee that is included on a week rental. Even if the listing says by the week, it can't hurt to ask. They'd rather rent for 5 days than have the place sit vacant.

I regularly use the site mbb has posted. Also check out www.vrbo.com . Renting a villa/condo can be a daunting task at first. For the number of people you have though it will give you tons of space. If you go w/ a villa you will most likely be able to get a 5bedroom/4bathroom private pool w/ heat for less than 2 rooms at a Disney Moderate. You'll also have your own washer/dryer which means you can pack alittle less.
