seeking last minute vacation home

[wannabeme]

We are going to WDW on the 17th of this month and don't have a place to stay. Our accomodation plans fell through and now I am desperatly trying to find a place. This is our first family vacation with our two youngest and I really want it to be magical for them. There will be five of us, three adults and two children so we will need three bedrooms. I am hoping to find a disney theme oriented home to make it more special for the little ones. A private pool is also a must. I know I am pushing it but if anyone can provide any information I would be so grateful

What are your exact dates?

These are a few that are on my shortlist for March but they have availability for your dates also. I don't know anything personally about them. I've checked the tax records for all of them and the names posted as owners on the home listing check out as having property in that subdivision.
I haven't made contact with any of them yet, ours will be a last minute trip also.

Go to the bottom right corner and scroll through the names to zoom in on the map.
If I see anything else I'll let you know.

There are roughly 10 homes open in Windsor Palms and Emerald Island on your dates, PM me for details. (not mine! don't want to get in trouble!)

There will be lots and lots of options for you...and you will make some owner very happy with your late rental...
Never hurts to ask for the "best price" for a last minute booking!!

Enjoy...Ted

You guys are awesome! I wish I would've looked at this site months ago. I actually didn't know it existed till I read "the unofficial guide to disney world". I took some of your advice and have a couple of leads. Thanks everyone!

Check out www.floridasunshine.com

We've rented from them before and are again on the 17th of Feb. Also

Check out the 3BR townhouse at http://www.windsorhillsrent.com/3bedhomes3.html look for #38 -- listed as Dream Townhome. It is unit ID #106 on this website. We stayed in January for 9 nights and it was great. I changed our entire trip plan the weekend before and confirmed our reservation on Monday for Friday arrival the same week. If they are available it would be a great place. PM me if you need more info.

Also check on e-bay...I think there was a Bonnet Creek listing in there and possibly a few others for President's Week. I agree that if you can find a condo/townhome for that week, you'll get a much better rate, though.

OP, have you found a home yet? If not, you may want to check out this link:

I believe a poster here (Princess Michelle) used this agency and recommended them. The first listing for your dates appears to be in Windsor Hills which is the most highly recommend resort on this site (we're staying there this July after reading all the wonderful reviews).

Good luck with your search. Let us know if you found anything.
