Chateau Minnie at Windsor Hills, Two Miles From Disney World!
Welcome to Chateau Minnie, our Florida home-away-from-home and now yours as well! We love to home exchange and are happy to share our favorite sunny spot near the "Happiest Place on Earth" with you.
Escape to the magic of Windsor Hills Resort and create unforgettable memories at “Chateau Minnie,” a family-friendly, modern & and luxe 3-bedroom condo. New, new, new! Chateau Minnie is spacious and comfortable (the largest condo floor plan available at Windsor Hills) and has been equipped to a high standard. Located on the quiet side of sought-after Building 8 (closest to the pool), Chateau Minnie is just a quick elevator-ride away from the Clubhouse, Lagoon Pool, and your family’s exciting Water Park adventures! Chateau Minnie offers the perfect blend of fun, comfort, and convenience. So pack your bags and get ready for a dream vacation filled with family memories and non-stop adventure at Disney World and Beyond!
If you`ve found us here, you may already know that Windsor Hills is one of the most popular off-site resorts and said to be the closest privately-owned resort to Walt Disney World. In fact, we`re just two miles from the main gate--minutes from the fun! Go to the parks in the morning, head home to nap and swim, back to the parks in the evening for dinner, fireworks, and shows. The price of an Uber is generally the same price as parking for the day. We`re THAT close.
Here are just some of the Windsor Hills Amenities (NO additional resort fees): Sir Windsor Aqua Adventure Water Park (2 Slides, Large Splash Pad, Hot Tub & Heated Double-Olympic-Size Pool), Clubhouse with Game Room & High-Definition Surround-Sound Movie Theater, Fitness Room with State-of-the-Art Equipment, Convenience Store, Lighted Tennis & Pickleball Court, Lighted Basketball Court, Sand Volleyball Court, Castle-Themed Playground, Lake & Wetlands (look for Sir Windsor--our resident celebrity alligator!), Lush Tropical Landscaping, Gated Community with 24-Hour Security. Everything is walkable from the house!
TOP TEN reasons to choose Chateau Minnie:
#1: Super-responsive owners and the absolute BEST on-site Property Management and Housecleaning Team in all of Kissimmee. Our #1 goal is to provide such an amazing experience in our home that you`ll tell all your friends and come back again and again.
#2: Room to spread out. As Disney fans and a family of 5, we`ve logged plenty of time in expensive, crowded hotel rooms. Chateau Minnie has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms which makes getting ready in the mornings quick and easy. Everything`s on one level so there are no stairs to climb at the end of a long day.
#3: Location, location, location. Chateau Minnie has a PRIME location in Windsor Hills on the quiet side of Building 8--this is the building closest to the pool, Water Park, game arcade, movie theater, gym, & Market Grill. You can`t get closer!
#4: High-end mattresses, linens, and pillows. We know you`ll be going all day and your rest is important! Our beds are comfy and inviting.
#5: Well-equipped kitchen. Much more than just the basics! Our home has lots of extras--things like an electric kettle, crockpot, coffee maker AND a Keurig. If you decide to dine in, you`ll find our home well suited for whipping up impromptu meals or holiday gatherings!
#6: Free high speed Wi-fi to keep you connected and 3 Smart TV`s with satellite packages.
#7: Digital entry. No worry about picking up keys (or misplacing them), and you`ll use a unique one-time code, custom-assigned for your stay.
#8: Truly a HOME. This is our family`s "happiest place" in the world`s Happiest Place. As such, we`ve equipped our Disney home to a high standard. Our guests are our friends! Our home`s a place we want you to love as much as we do.
Please note: Chateau Minnie is a self-catering rental home in a high-demand resort. It`s generally not available for exchange February through April and, in order to meet our housekeeper`s schedule, will be subject to check-in time of 4:00 pm and check-out time of 10:00 am. We have an owner`s closet with additional supplies for our home exchange guests but it`s important to note that health/sanitation laws prevent us from stocking food products or condiments. Thank you!
About the location
Two miles from Disney! As close as you can get in a private, gated resort.
Chateau Minnie is a third-floor condo on the quiet side of Building 8, the building closest to the pool. It`s served by two elevators.
Windsor Hills is a friendly gated community, just 2 miles from the Walt Disney World gate, putting us closer to the parks than many of the Disney Hotels on property. There are many restaurants within a short drive and Walmart is just down the road--on the way from the airport.
While you`ll probably prefer a rental car, it`s very easy to taxi, Uber , or Lyft from Windsor Hills to Walt Disney World. It`s often as economical as driving (parking at the parks is $30/day) and can save substantially on walking and time at the end of a long day.
Disney World is just the start of your fun in central Florida! Our home is a perfect base for exploring the area.
