Balmoral Resort Florida

To start, we did not have the break-in issues that many other reviewers encountered. We made sure that all of the house windows and doors were locked and it was fine. The house that we rented apparently did not have a pool heater and brrrr...but who really knows because when I called Balmoral ahead of our trip, they were of zero help. This type of service extended to the onsite concierge and bar staff. Horrible service...absolutely horrible, yes you bar lady. Waterpark-closed, no business center, pool area- run down and filthy...hot tub water was yellow, no locked gate access after hours. The house fit our family fine. Like other reviews, kitchen ammenities are lacking. Wait until you try the can opener, you will hate your life. It was wonderful having laundry in the unit, and a full sized kitchen.

All the homes are new, beautifully decorated, and the pool was really warm so we were able to swim on the cooler days. Directions to the house were difficult, Google maps was not accurate, assuming this is because of the new development. This did make ordering food difficult at times. Loved having a washer and dryer on site! Only a few minor suggestions... Providing enough garbage bags for a family's week long stay would be nice, as well as toilet paper and paper towels. The pool light wasn't on and couldn't find a switch. Also, a baking sheet would be beneficial for heating up certain leftovers. Overall, our stay was great, would highly recommend!

The last 2 times I have stayed here (chosen due to location close to Lego Land/Orlando, needed a house for bigger group, and past great experience at water park), I have been assigned the very last house in the corner the farthest away from the club house amongst no other completed homes (i.e. construction zone). This last visit, we were bringing 3 kids purely for the water park feature. When we arrived, the water park was "closed for maintenance." Come to find out, according to the bartender, it closed after Hurricane Ian and never re-opened. I never received notice of this or I would have changed lodging arrangements. When I called and called (because they no longer have any staff on site), I was told I could not get a refund because of the 2-night minimum stay. She said we would be refunded the "resort fee" which was $40 of the $800 reservation, which was never refunded. Incredibly disappointing all around.

Really nice house. Didn’t use the water park due to low temperature but it looks very nice the kids would have loved it

We love Balmoral!!! Only issue this time was on Sat. the game room was locked and after the kids waited all day we were then told that it closed at 6:30 even though it's posted 10PM. No big deal just some confusion.

I'm ery pissed off at rhis point. Me and my family was told i would get my miney back because our trip was canceled due to Covid19. I has a Autistic child and also have health issues. They told me and hotels.com i would receive a call in June witch is 3 months later from when we was supposed to take our trip. It is now almost July and im still getting the run around. I have always used hotels.com but after this never again this is the 2nd time this company has pissed me off . I will be filling a lawsuit against this company. If anyone else is having this happen u should get u a lawyer too

The house was perfect for our large group. The private was a real hit with the kids. The only issues was the dishwasher did not work and kitchen sink faucet was about to fall apart

Ideal location for family reunion traveling from Michigan and New Hampshire. The private pool was a real plus.
