Cheap Orlando Vacation Homes
Vacation homes in Orlando have become a cheaper commodity. It is estimated there are 35,000 +/- vacation homes in the area. Many of these vacation homes are often unoccupied.
Expect the Orlando vacation home rental rates to drop further for the following reasons:
- Many current owners are now cash strapped and are willing to rent their homes for less
- As the recession sets in, less people are visiting driving demand down to rent these homes for their Orlando vacation. Please see our POST on this topic.
- There are large amounts of these vacation villas entering foreclosure and are being picked up for a fraction of their original price, thus the new owners can rent them out more affordably.
Many of these expansive villas can now be rented at a lesser price than most cramped hotel rooms.
Don’t be afraid to shop around for vacation villas in Orlando, and feel free to ask a lot of questions. Remember, all vacation villas and vacation home management companies are not created equal, so do your homework.

If you are visiting Orlando Florida and looking for a vacation villa rental, there is great news. There is a huge oversupply of Orlando luxury vacation homes for rent. This means deals to be had abound for your Orlando vacation. For about the price of a mid-market hotel room, you can rent a fully equipped vacation villa home with your own private pool and do as much self-catering in a full kitchen as you like. This would certainly help you cut down on your dining and entertainment bills. Thousands of homes were built over the last ten years, and now many owners need to rent them. On any single night in Orlando, many of these homes sit empty.
Occupancies Dropping
In Orlando, the hotel industry will be the first to tell you their occupancies plunged in September 2008 over 2007, with room revenues dropping by as much 20-25%.
Many Owners Need to Rent
Many vacation homeowners are now feeling the pinch of the housing crisis, and many of the speculators who bought now need to generate additional income to the pay the mortgage.
What does this mean to you, the renter?
You need to rent through a good Orlando vacation home management company. Booking direct from an owner can be hazardous, as often they are from out of state, and if there is a problem, you are often on your own. Also, the Orlando villa could be in some stage of foreclosure and a good vacation home management company can make sure your villa is still available, clean and inspected the day you arrive.
- Shop around. There are thousands of Orlando villas and hundreds of vacation home rental management companies. Make sure you rent a good home, get a great deal and stay in a great location for your Orlando vacation.
- Always pay by credit card.
