Santa Cruz Retreat Outdoor Pool

This 3-bedroom sanctuary offers all the comforts of home with the added bonus of a beautiful, refreshing outdoor pool and a prime location to the theme parks you no doubt have on your list of to-dos. You’ll be less than a 10-minute drive to the entrance of the popular Champions Gate Village, a premier retail center with shopping, dining, and entertainment options galore. At the home, a screened-in lanai offers serene, nature-centric views of the neighboring conservation area as well as ample outdoor seating in both sun and shade to take your relaxation to the next level. The whole family will love spending endless hours splashing in the cool waters and drying off in the warm Florida air. For even more fun, head to the garage-turned-game room where you’ll find a full-size pool table waiting for a friendly round of 8-ball. When you’re ready to chill out in the glorious air conditioning, head inside the spacious home where even more exciting spaces await!

The home has been adorned with lots of homey touches to help you settle in quickly. The living room is bathed in plentiful natural light and offers comfortable sofa and armchair seating, as well as 2 overhead fans to keep the cool air moving. A smart TV allows you to stream all your favorite shows without missing a single episode or host a family movie night while you wind down for bed. Just around the corner, the bright and airy kitchen is fully equipped with stainless steel appliances, a toaster, a kettle, and a drip coffee maker. Prepare full-sized family meals or quick appetizers here, served up at the counter with two high-top barstools for an informal seating option. For a more formal meal setting, a dining room table just steps away can accommodate your entire crew for whatever type of fare you have in mind.
