8 / 10Excellent·May 2026
Nice comfortable place to stay convenient to pretty much everything. Host communication could improve. Sent several messages thru VRBO that went unanswered.

The located to town center is excellent. Mt. Dora has many lovely shops to explore.The cottage was smaller than anticipated. However, it was very clean & welcoming with a bottle of wine & stemware on the table.The owner was not the best with prompt communication of instructions to guide arrival. It was difficulty to open the enter code because the faceplate was almost opaque from years of wear. Had to call the owner & ask her to bring a key to use instead. Parking was fine.It was the first time a host has asked us to remove sheets & towels and wash them before we departed. For the high rental cost we would expect the owner to do this after we left!

We found this property very well kept, adorably decorated, clean, comfortable and perfectly situated within walking distance from the nearby shops and restaurants. The owner is very responsive and accommodates your every need. Can't wait to stay again!
6 / 10Average·Nov 2025
On our recent stay at The Nantucket, we found the location to be excellent, allowing us to park our car in the driveway and walk into town.However, we found The Nantucket too small for us. The tiny bathroom was impossible to dress in after a shower so we had to dress in the hallway as the bedroom was also too small to dress in. The bathroom had no place to put toiletries-perhaps a shelf above the toilet could be added for this purpose. Tissues could be placed on this shelf.Also, a strong musty odor greeted us at the door. The see-thru shades on the front windows gave us a lack of privacy at night, making watching TV or walking around in our pajamas uncomfortable as anyone walking or driving by could see clearly inside the living room. Also, the kitchen floor was gritty with sand, and there was only one teaspoon in the drawer. The request to wash any cups or utensils and strip the bed, and wash the bedding and towels was something I didn’t expect. We had paid 95 dollars for cleaning. I was hoping to away for three days from household chores while in Mt. Dora. I have never experienced this request in any of my travels in hotels, motels, and ARBNBs in the USA or Europe. I hope this review is useful to you. I know you can’t stretch the walls to make it bigger, but we would have enjoyed a little more space and privacy.
