Davenport, Florida is one of the most underrated places to book a vacation rental. It is probably the least known area/region for booking a vacation rental mainly because many communities in the area are new.
In a previous post, we enumerated our top four vacation home picks in Davenport. Although Kissimmee, Florida is an excellent place for a vacation rental, one must consider Davenport as well. Now let’s look at Davenport in detail, and why the area is such a great place to vacation.
First and foremost, Davenport and the surrounding Polk County region are very close to Disney World. Davenport rentals are almost synonymous with the term “Disney vacation homes” because they are so close to the back gates of the Disney parks. Davenport vacation homes are just a short drive up the quiet corridor of State Toll Road 529 to Disney. Generally only the locals use Toll 529, as it’s a little known way to get inside the park and avoid most of the traffic for a Disney vacation.
Additionally, one of things that comes with a Davenport rental is typically space, selection and quality. Many of the newer subdivisions are located in and around Polk County. This often means that the underlying quality of the community is good, and that the vacation villa is in excellent shape. Typically this means spacious common areas for your kids to roam and play in while you are “home” from the parks. Again, one should consult our community profiles for reviews of most vacation homes near Disney. There are also many communities to choose from. Our site alone reviews over a dozen resort communities in detail in Davenport.
Finally, there are excellent recreational amenities in the area. There are several English Pubs to frequent in the area as well as many top quality golf courses in Polk County. Highlands Reserve Golf Club and Southern Dunes Golf Club are examples of good courses in the area for intermediate to advanced golfers.
All in all, Davenport, Florida is a great place to vacation. Its relative distance to the Disney World theme parks, quality and selection of resort communities, and the amenities in the area including golf courses make it an ideal spot for any vacation.
