Guest access
There's a gate at the front with an entry code you'll receive around 7am on your check-in day.
After passing through the gate, follow the winding road past the clubhouse, shuffleboard courts, playground, tennis/pickleball courts, basketball courts, and pool.
Make a right when you see a sign for "Horseshoe Bend." Follow that short street to Mario's Mini Mansion directly ahead of you. There is a reserved parking spot just for you right in front of it.
You will receive your entry code for the front door about 30 minutes before check-in (3:00pm) unless early check-in arrangements are made.
There is a pool/laundry room key hanging near the front door, and a "clicker" for the front and back security gate (so you don't need to use the access code) -- be sure to leave these items behind when you check out to avoid being charged for replacement. The pool key is $100 to replace, and the clicker is $150 to replace. We purchase them from the HOA.
Other things to note
I'm a local gal who was raised in Central Florida. There's a guidebook in the Mini Mansion with my recommendations on the best places to eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner; off-the-beaten path activities, beaches, wineries, and more. If you're looking for something specific, feel free to reach out and ask! I'd love to help.
Checkout is 11 AM unless pre-approved in advance. Late checkout accommodations are subject to availability and prior approval. Unauthorized late checkouts will be charged to the guest at a half-day rate.
Smoking is strictly prohibited on the property (even on the screened patio). If a guest is found to be smoking at or in the property, the guest will be charged a minimum of $500 for damages.
NOTE: The community water comes from the aquifer, and it naturally contains beneficial minerals and enzymes that are part of the filtration process. Following an upgrade to its well system in spring 2026, the water lines continue to clear themselves, causing a *temporary* reduced water flow at one or more faucets. This process can take several months before everything fully returns to normal.
Mario's Mini Mansion has not been affected by this so far, but we want to disclose that you MAY be affected by this. It appears to be random and only affecting only a small number of homes.
If you DO experience reduced water flow at one or more faucets during your stay at Mario's Mini Mansion, the community's official plumber (including Mario and Luigi!!) recommends the following:
1) Run the house's exterior hose bib (garden hose connection next to the air conditioner outside) for a few minutes — typically less than five minutes — to help flush the water lines.
2) If the affected faucet has a screen aerator, remove and clean the aerator, as it may have collected small amounts of sediment (we do this regularly at Mario's Mini Mansion)
3) If slow water flow returns, simply repeat steps 1 and/or 2.
Again, this appears to be affecting ONLY a small number of homes in the entire Vacation Village community (where Mario's Mini Mansion is). We just wanted to disclose it just in case it did end up affecting us.
Thank you so much for your understanding :) This is an older home that's been renovated thoroughly, but sometimes things happen with the neighborhood systems that are out of our control.
