Lake House at Formosa - Sophisticated villa with private pool, spa and game room

Lake House at Formosa

5 bedrooms / sleeps 10



Welcome to Formosa Lake House – a sophisticated 5 bedroom 4 bathroom villa with oversized pool and spa plus air-conditioned games room situated on a peaceful lakefront. Located in the prestigious gated community of Formosa Gardens, the home provides a delightful setting for your Florida vacation.



The living room is located at the rear of the home with views to the lake. There is comfortable sofa seating (newly added in 2024) and large TV for relaxing together. Cable TV and high speed wifi is included. There is a further living area at the front of the home ensuring plenty of space to spread out.



The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you may need to cater for your family. As well as breakfast bar seating, there is a table and chairs for morning bites. A bright dining area also provides space to enjoy a full family meal. Or why not dine outdoors under the covered shaded area?



Leading outside, the enormous pool deck stretches the width of the home and offers plenty of space to play. The deck faces south-west for those long afternoons enjoying the Florida outdoors right up to sunset. The large freeform pool overlooks the lake and also boasts a hot tub. Pool/spa heating available at an additional cost.

BBQ rental available: 3 burner $89 per week / 4 burner $99 per week incl tank of propane (needs to be ordered 7+ days in advance - BBQs not stored at the home)



The home has two master suites - the first master bedroom is located downstairs and offers a luxurious king size bed, office area and spacious ensuite bathroom with double sinks, garden tub and separate walk-in shower. Upstairs there is a second master suite with kingsize bed, living area and ensuite bathroom. There are two twin rooms perfect for the children, which share a bathroom inbetween. A further queen bedroom in also located downstairs with an adjacent bathroom that can be accessed from the pool deck.


The garage has been converted to a games room with extra living space that is air-conditioned. There is plenty of fun to be had with the pool table and foosball.



Formosa Gardens is located less than 2 miles away from Disney, yet the resort offers a peaceful retreat and a luxurious stay in Orlando. The premium gated community is beautifully maintained and a safe gated environment. All of the main shopping and dining options are only a short drive away.

Perfect location

This is an excellent property in my favourite location. The property itself is in need of some updates and the cleanliness on arrival was average.The pool area is definitely in need of attention, the furniture was dirty and old, the deck area was showing signs of sinking and major cracks. The pool water level was dropping by several inches every day causing us to have to fill up from the cold water hose. Because of this by the second half of our stay the pool was very cold despite having paid for pool heating.Overall I was disappointed with the above items but we did have a fairly pleasant stay.

Good but much room for improvement

My family stayed at this house for spring break, 7 nights. We have stayed in this exact neighborhood (even at houses with exact same layout) several times but this was our first time at this property. The property was not our first choice but since we got a late start on planning it was one of the few available of the size and amenities that we sought. It is a 7 out of 10. Like other houses with this specific layout in the Formosa area, this home design is super spacious and very family friendly. Even with as many as 8-10 people in past trips the house never feels crowded. The house aspires to be "sophisticated lake house" and it definitely has potential and could be a really stellar rental property. Sadly, right now it isn't there. The property, as it is currently, is a mix of old and new that holds it back both in function and in form. The living room and and kitchen have been updated and are welcoming. The rest of the rooms are a mixture of old furniture and styles that detract from the lake house feel. Again, they aren't horrible but the house lacks a common vibe that many other properties in this neighborhood have. The front patio is screened in but items like the screen door are aged so bugs etc still get inside. The biggest complaint that we had was the pool area. Again, for reference we stayed a a property literally down the street last year, same house, similar pool areas. Previous reviews referred to the pool water level being an issue and it continued to be for us
