| Emerald Island Resort is one of the most popular VillaDirect� vacation home communities - it's become every guests favorite place to stay with many demanding it by name when they return each year! This resort community is a large and exclusive development of spacious, executive 4, 5, 6 and 7 bedroom vacation homes, rental pool homes, and 3 and 4 bedroom town-homes, surrounding an exclusive, fully featured resort club house with many amenities for guests to enjoy, plus smaller pool cabanas in some of the outlying areas of the resort. Most of the guests choose to stay and use their own private pools at the vacation homes in which they are staying. As you enter you immediately find yourself in a luscious sub-tropical resort, with driveway that stretches toward a manned security gate house and through to the stunning Dolphin Fountain at the entrance to the club house and facilities. The club house has a reception area which sells newspapers and sundries, and provides information for guests staying at the resort. There's a lounge area, where you can sit and chat or meet other guests staying at Emerald Island. The kids can enjoy themselves in the games room, or on the video arcade games provided, and you can "keep in touch" while on vacation with the IT center that provides high-speed internet access for guests. If you want to "work-off" some of that extra food you'll enjoy while on vacation, or simply keep the program on track - take the time to use the fully-equipped fitness center at Emerald Island, or work out with a game of volleyball on the sandy court with some new friends. The club house also features a sparkling clear community pool and hot-tub/spa pool for guests to enjoy, and there's a sun-deck to drench yourself in the Florida "rays". As stated earlier, many of the homes and town homes in the resort can also choose to enjoy their own local community pools and cabanas in addition to the main club house. A shuttle service is available from the club house to take guests to and from the theme parks and attractions of central Florida (ask at the club house for times and details). Emerald Island resort is surrounded by conservation woodland, and there are nature trails for "courageous" guests to explore. Emerald Island Resort is developed by Park Square Homes, and has "sister" resorts located in Kissimmee and in Davenport, Florida. If you would like to view other similar homes, or if there are no vacation homes available for the dates you searched, be sure to look at the Terra Verde Resort or the Solana Resort while on this web site.
