Hi Jayne I do understand your concerns, but it’s very simple if you take on board these points.
First you will get what you pay for, if you decide to rent a home offering very cheap rates then you take a risk,. No homeowner can maintain their home to a reasonable standard if the rates are too low.
Choose your home from a website that verify the homes as Orlando Villas does. along with a handful of others .

Going through a tour company doesn't offer you any guarantees that the home of your choice will be there for you when you arrive.
Granted the tour company will find you a last minute alternative but who knows what condition that home will be in?

Take your time choose a home that has all the qualities you are looking for at a reasonable rate Then ask the homeowner any questions that will help to give you peace of mind. Many homeowners on Orlando villas website are passionate about their homes and they want their guests to be happy and enjoy the time in their beautiful homes.

Lastly if any rates for a home seems like it’s a bargain then the chances are it won’t be. When going on holiday where you stay can make all the difference.
Good luck and have a great time when you visit .
