“We thought our vacation was going to be stressful with two kids, but it was wonderful. The home made the vacation relaxing and stress free!”
The ALL STAR Story of the Month for May is from the Dooley Family of Virginia.
Mrs. Dooley spent three years planning her family’s first Disney vacation, trying to find accommodations that would suit their budget. Upon discovering ALL STAR Vacation Homes, she found the perfect place to stay.
“I found the most beautiful townhouse with three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a kitchen/living room, and washer/dryer. It was cheaper than a room with two queen beds at the Disney resort!”
Mrs. Dooley loved how close their Windsor Hills ALL STAR vacation town home rental was to all of the attractions, which made it easy for her and her family to leave the parks to eat lunch and enjoy their private lounge pool.
“The kids loved the house so much that they WANTED to leave the crowded hot theme parks to swim in the pool!”
