About Sarah & Ken Elder
Who knew when we bought our first home in 2005 that it would lead us down the path of a new business venture?
We certainly had no idea, but we've now been welcoming guests to our beautiful Orlando vacation homes for over 12 years and we love every minute.
Imagine having a job where you help plan exciting and amazing vacations and get to deal with happy guests all the time!
It doesn’t get much better!
We spent 28 years living on an idyllic Greek Island where we owned and ran our own restaurant in a busy coastal resort. Time eventually caught up with us and we left our beautiful Greek Island with a lifetime of memories.
We now split our time between Florida and our ancestral home in Scotland.
We spend half the year overlooking a beautiful Scottish Loch with and the other half on Disney’s doorstep in Florida.
Who says you can’t have your Key Lime Pie and eat it too. And with Pixie Dust sprinkled on top :)
We have 3 vacation homes so we have something to suit couples and small families and larger groups or multi-generation families.
We have a firm commitment to provide wonderful relaxing and carefree vacations in beautiful homes.
We look forward to being part of your vacation memories.

Always a great place to stay!
First, just book it and forget it, you will love it!
We have stayed at both places Ken and Sarah own in Vista Del Lago and will be back again!
Don't let the manufactured or what we used to call mobile homes or trailers scare you. The first time we came last year my wife looked at me as we drove through to get to the unit and said what the heck, oh no a trailer park, are you kidding me! I told her please wait until we get in and spend a night. 24 hours later she was already looking at the pictures to stay at Ken and Sarah’s second property at Vista Del Lago for the next year, which turns out was this unit we stayed in last week! Boy a year flew by!
We have stayed in over 20 different places while visiting Disney World over the years, The Disney Cabins, The Contemporary, The Polynesian and privately-owned Bonnet Springs, The Blue Heron just outside Disney Springs , many places in Lake Buena Vista(many have changed name over the years), both Disney and non-Disney affiliated and many private houses and town homes with the little pool right in the back. We rated this interior the best and/or at least not second to any other we ever stayed at, possibly tied, but those were 500.00 a night places!
As far as bang for the buck, if you want a high end 3 bedroom that makes you feel like you are on vacation, this is a great choice. Pull up to your door, unload your groceries and enter a place as nice as a high-end resort. If you want a large building you need to drag the groceries through just becasue it has 4 restaurants on site and a lazy river, be my guest and pay the 349.00 a night, we have done so ourselves(and still only 2 bedrooms). We wont be doing that again though, this is just so much simpler!
Some people in the review sections are saying 10 minutes or more to get to Disney. That might be for them and really still is a very good time, but we did it in 6 and 7 minutes many times. And I mean in the lot and parked at Animal Kingdom! Magic Kingdom is of course way on the other side and going to that park does take a good 20 to 25 minutes(I think 16 minutes was my record at 6:00 am), but realize you can stay at many a Disney resort and be 23 to 25 minutes from Magic Kingdom or one of the other parks, Disney is 42 Square miles!
So just book it!

Amazing property
We booked on short notice due to evacuations from hurricane Florence. The owners were amazing in helping us with our situation and us not knowing exactly how many days were needed. The 3 boys absolutely loved the Harry Potter room and all the games. If we make another trip out to FL, we will definitely be staying here again!

We felt right at home
The homeowners went out of their way to make us feel welcome. They were very approachable and communicated by email and text. Sarah kindly offered to set up an early check-in for us and we were pleasantly surprised to see she had left some grocery staples for us, like milk, eggs, coffee and even some beer and wine! The house came with everything advertised and I feel they really went above and beyond to make our stay pleasant and comfortable. My teenaged daughter loved having the king bedroom with the adjoining sunny deck. She wanted us to move here! I loved the sunny deck, living rooms, kitchen and master bedroom. The beds were so comfortable!

Well stocked, clean, and close to Disney - what's not to love?
Before I get to the house, let me just say, Sarah and Ken were wonderful. They checked in with us before we arrived, offering advice and tips for our trip. Any questions I had, were promptly and clearly answered. The house itself was welcoming, clean, and the best stocked house I have rented off of VRBO in the 6 years we have been using the site. It was such a pleasure to stay there.
They even have a blog, so you can easily pre plan your entire vacation!

Wonderful accommodations and owner experience.
We arrived at 2am to find the house lit with outdoor and indoor Holiday decorations, as well as lamps turned on in each room. The light switches were all labeled, the house was spotless and the kitchen was stocked with a great welcoming supply of breakfast makings and drinks to start our short vacation. That was such a pleasant surprise after our 8 hour drive after working all day. The house easily accommodated a mix of ages and family configurations; owners Ken and Sarah made sure we had everything we needed along with very comfortable beds and plenty of linens for our group.
The house and neighborhood is truly within minutes of the Disney parks- even with New Year's crowds.
I would also like to mention how helpful the "insider" notebook as well as the notebook filled with all nearby restaurants and their menus were to our stay. Really, this was a vacation with a private planner. Thank you Ken and Sarah! You go above and beyond for your guests, and we can't wait to go back!!

Home was very clean, well decorated and everything you might think you need and more.
We reserved this property mainly based on prior reviews. All of the reviews stated that Ken & Sarah thought of everything, and indeed they did! It was very nice to arrive after driving 14 hours and not have to worry about going to the store to get just the basics, let alone the extras. We would definitely stay in one of their properties again. Thanks again, Ken and Sarah, for making our stay comfortable. By the way, we really loved the oranges off of the tree.

Outstanding
We have utilized VRBO rentals in the past but this was the most memorable, rewarding, rejuvenating experience we have had. Our hosts Ken and Sarah really went the extra mile and showed us how much they really care about their renters even to the tiniest detail such as having a pumpkin pie and other food items on the kitchen counter to great us when we arrived for our Thanksgiving family gathering. They even had dog bowls for our two dogs that we brought.
The house gave us plenty room to either be together or separate ourselves from the kids for some peace and quiet when needed. Lots of outdoor space for taking long walks and watching the amazing big birds in the area behind the house.
The rental unit was immaculate with every amenity provided for our needs. It really made our entire family feel special, at home, and very much welcomed into Ken and Sarah's home. We definitely plan on having another gathering at this house in the future and highly recommend any families looking to experience a wonderful cozy setting to stay here.

Wonderful Property
The minute we walked in the door we felt at home. The house is beautifully and creatively decorated. Plus it was much bigger than we expected and was stocked with everything you could possible need. Sarah and Ken were kind enough to leave us some breakfast fixings along with some much needed adult beverages. We enjoyed our many walks and Zoey made some friends along the way. The neighborhood was so quiet and everyone waved when going by. Sarah and Ken were the best owners we have ever dealt with. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your house. We can't wait to come back.
Stayed November, 2017
Totally Perfect
We came down, family of 7, it was absolutely perfect. Perfect location, perfect accommodations, VERY clean. The owners immediately got back to us for any questions we had. We loved loved loved it! We VRBO a LOT! This was the best one we've landed :).

Beautiful, comfortable home away from home!
Sleepy Hollow was the perfect home base for our Florida vacation! The decor is inviting, fun, and tasteful. Everything is clean and well-maintained. All the amenities of home and more. Sarah and Ken clearly put a lot of love into this home! We would not hesitate to return or recommend, and hope to be back one day!
