Frank, 'Disney Area Villas' is a bit of a misused term; especially when used by tour companies.

While the forum will likely stop you telling us the exact name of who you booked through there are a couple of questions we can ask that we enable us to give you more of an idea of what to expect.

The good news to take away from all this is that having found this forum you now have the opportunity to book direct with an owner for any future trips and doing so will mean that you know exactly which villa you are staying in. [msnsmile2][msnsmile2]

First question: Did you book through a travel agent / tour company or did you book direct with an owner? If you aren't sure, the easiest way to answer this is to ask yourself the question do you know the name of the person who owns the villa?

Next question: Whoever you have booked with should be able to tell you the community where the villa is located. If you can find this out we can give you a location and you can take a look on Google maps or equivalent to see the distance for yourself. If you have booked through a tour company this will get more difficult. Sadly most tour companies run what's called an allocate-on-arrival system which means that you won't know what villa you are staying at (and in most cases even the community) until you arrive in Orlando. It's not a good system at all as the villa you get may not match the villa you've seen in the brochure.
