My partner and I are planning to go to Florida for 2 weeks in early September 2008 and are looking for accommodation at a good price.
I've been to Florida quite a lot with my parents and sister when I was younger, but this will be our first time going on our own, just us two

. Previously I've stayed at Hapimag - Lake Berkley through Travel City Direct on a few occasions and really love it there but with just two people it's a little expensive. However, I've recently found a website called direct-holidayvillas.com seemingly offering allocated on arrival villas/townhouses at quite a low price at around £520, and that seems to be the amount for the two weeks! They offer villas in different areas, such as Central Kissimmee area villas and then within each area it lists the possible "communities" or "gated resorts" you could be placed on (one of which is Lake Berkley...YAY!!
![:tup](/storage/forum/smilies/tup.gif)
) but I've never been to the other communities that are listed such as Bass Lakes Estates, Eagle Pointe, Indian Pointe. So I've got a couple of questions that maybe someone might be able to help with....
1. Has anyone used the direct holiday villas site before? Are they trustworthy?
2. Does anyone know if the price they are offering (£528) is for the two weeks or is that a weekly price?
3. Has anyone stayed at the Bass Lakes Estates, Eagle Pointe, Indian Pointe or Terra Verde (I've seen that one advertised on quite a few sites too, and it looks nice) communities before? And were they any good?
Thanks very much in advance for your help
Warm regards
