Oct 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing Home. We arrived shortly after Hurricane Milton hit the area and would have appreciated some reassurance that all was ok without having to chase the property company. Once in the home we soon found it to contain everything needed for a relaxing stay, it really is comprehensively kitted out. The whole of ChampionsGate is very nice with a large selection of eateries and shops. However be aware the traffic is awful, I4 is a nightmare at most times of the day so avoid if possible. We used the toll roads whenever we could and would recommend the Toll Pass system available at all the airport terminals rather than the car hire company’s inclusive rates. ##### Tony G.

We arrived at the property around two in the morning and the door code we received didn’t work. Got ahold of the manager and within 15 min a new code was given. On our second to last day the hot tub had a leak. They had someone at the property within 12 hours and fixed it so we were able to enjoy it before our trip ended. Overall very nice place. ##### Jordan G. Stayed 7 nights in Mar 2022 This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good #### Jen S.

Pool was not working majority of the time. Only could get it heated with the hot tub overflowing. Screens were torn so bugs got in making sitting outside uncomfortable, especially at night. Basketball hoop broken for the kids. Lounge furniture broken. More than one toilet paper roll per bathroom would have been helpful and at least dish soap. ##### Jen S.

I didn’t like having to go to the Florida Spirit office to get the key to the clubhouse and return it to the office before Friday at 5pm. I’ve stayed in The Shire multiple times and never had to run for then clubhouse key. Not convenient or explained before or after booking this house. ##### Jamie m.

Exceptionally clean and spacious. The jacuzzi worked very well which has been a problem at other homes we have rented. Great and convenient location. Kitchen is well supplied. We would suggest upgrading the frying pans and provide more plates, bowls, etc. to prevent the need to run the dishwasher every day. An energy saver for the owner. Adding one large stock pot would be helpful too. We would highly recommend this home. As we stated last year we so wish they would provide for recycling. We know it’s available as the neighbor homes had the receptacles for them. ##### Mary T. ### 2/10 Terrible #### T.J. B.

Jun 5, 2024 #### Great for Omni Championsgate Event Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The home is cute, well appointed and close to gas station, Publix and numerous eating options. TVs worked well. Plenty of sleeping space. Plenty of seating space so that a large group would not feel cramped using the property. We had a few issues and the management company/owner were super responsive. For our stay, one of the screens of the enclosure was broken so bugs made the use of the pool hard. The water never warmed up for us to be able to enjoy the pool as we had hoped. We also live in S. Florida and have a heated pool; this stayed cold despite nearly 100 degree temperatures outside. Inside, the temperature was 78 when we arrived. Since we are not allowed to change the settings, we had to leave the home to wait for it to regulate. Recommendations: An actual A/C for the converted garage, bath mats for coming in/out of shower (tile is slippery); a note on the listing that it is Keurig/K-cups-friendly.We had a hard time getting into the gated community. Not sure if I simply missed the gate code in the instructions. (I tried the 4-digit conf code at gate but that did not work.) So perhaps just clearer instructions for the community gate would improve the experience. ##### Natalie G. Stayed 4 nights in May 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lizz S.

Apr 26, 2024 #### A Place to Relax Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in The Shire community before in a house two doors down from this one last year. The community is very quiet. We've stayed in other communities cities and it can be quite the opposite. I think the primary reason for this is because the community is established with many Florida residents.The Palace Retreat is very nice and the premises was clean. It also has a south facing pool which means sun all day. We would stay here again. There were a couple of downsides: no pool towels, the seams for the cushions for the pool lounge chairs was undone so they couldn't be used because the stuffing would fall out as such they were just stacked on the pool deck (the chairs could still be used) and only one kitchen towel. Also we wondered how you gained access to the community clubhouse. There was no access code or key provided and no instructions on how to access it. All and all we love the area and it's easy drive to stores, restaurants and golf.We never had to contact FSVH for anything, but in the past they've been quite responsive. ##### Daniel D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff C. Mar 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Clean and well cared for property. Property is as described and is a great place to stay. Pool is nice, all appliances work well, plenty of silverware and plates, and nice Roku TVs in every bedroom. We only have 3 minor suggestions. 1) upgrade the beds. They are not super comfortable. 2) add 1-2 more baking sheets. 3) consider adding an air fryer. Regardless of those minor things, we absolutely recommend this home and would stay again. ##### Jeff C.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased with our stay at this beautiful home! It was very well supplied, clean and spacious. We did need to call about the spa as it wasn’t very warm but they promptly came out and it was wonderful after that! The location was great for us and we look forward to booking it again next year. Our only complaint and it’s not the owners fault, but NO recycling available which is very very ridiculous! We will write the association and voice our complaint. Florida Spirit was beyond great responding to a couple of requests. The only thing lacking in kitchen was cutting knives and they promptly delivered a huge set of high quality knives! We did ask that they provide a quick cheat sheet on how to use cable as there was 4 remotes and it took us two days to figure it all out. 😎⛳️Thanks for everything! ##### Mary T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Molly C.
