Country Cottage Suites In Mount Dora, The Alex

Love it it was a beautiful place. Just had a miscommunication on the code, but we got that resolved quick action on a homeowners part

Perfect place, roomy living area sand the balcony was a plus! Had morning coffee and evening people watching!

Access code didn’t work, had to call rep at VRBO to get one to work. No place to park to unload or unload. Name on door didn’t match listing. Very scant on supplies. No reference info in unit. Coffee pot lid broken

Dave was a good host, great location, nice apartment. Would stay there again.

Actually didn't stay in the unit. Tried to reach host but no answer or response. Unit was not ready for anyone to stay in it. There were other patrons for the other unit that went somewhere else as well. Worst experience ever!

I have rented this place several times and its always a great experience. The apartment is gorgeous and the location is perfect if you're exploring Mt Dora or one of the festivals. I've already booked it for next year!

VRBO &owner don't communicate, she did not know about booking and was moving party from across to our unit, the another party tried to enter late in the evening, they had code and claimed to hey had the booked room!!? room!!

Don't get me wrong, this apt is great and very comfortable. However, I've never stayed with VRBO before to where I couldn't contact the property manager directly once checked in. Any contact or questions had to be handled through VRBO. Not a problem if you have the wifi access code to use for your computer. We checked in to NO information other than what to do/not do in the apt. Normally there is always written info for the guest re the TV, wifi, A/C, etc. There is an i/c/o emergency # which we had to call to get info which turned out to be the company that owns the apt. That young lady was very helpful but she is not the property mgr. Also no info on closest grocery store, pharmacy, etc. Yes, you can look this up on Google but you shouldn't have to. It's just common courtesy. Picture of walkway to apt is misleading as are some of the pics of surroundings. Very little greenery (even fake), dirty path, garbage cans behind far wall where there is a small table for sitting out. The unique shop under the apt was closed down. I was told another store was going in soon. Obviously website is not maintained on a current basis. Stairs are steep, elders might have a problem. Stairs are also painted grey and poorly lighted. There was also no welcome coffee packet or even a Keurig set up. Very unusual for a VRBO property. Just saying all this so other renters will know what they might run into. The location is perfect for shops, restaurants, etc.

Great location to stay in Mt Dora. Highly recommend.

Beautiful, 2nd time at this place hopefully it will be a yearly trip and become part of Christmas tradition for us. It’s so peaceful to sit on the balcony and see all the sights and listen to the singing Christmas tree.The suite is nicely decorated and offers plenty of comfortable seating for catching up with friends. You can cook a full meal in the kitchen if you don’t want to go out. And if you like exploring the whole town is right outside your door it’s great ?

Unit is very clean master bed is hard as a rock . Drunk people and loud music till 2 am feels like your at a bad karaoke night right inside the unit. Great for shopping and eating. Bad for relaxing . Also dont pay the extra money for the cancelation policies tried that had a issue but thankfully we got that worked out because the money we paid the just incase something happens is a scam . If its drunk linda your looking for and awful rock and country music that sounds like a dieing chicken and a drunk goat and sleeping in a bed like a truck bed this is the spot. Oh and lets not forget the delivery trucks and trash trucks after 2 am till 6 am.

This is our second stay and we've already booked our third. The apartment is gorgeous and in a perfect location...close to amazing food and quaint shops. It's very clean, comfortable and has everything that you need to feel at home. Ronnie downstairs is great...he's always there for recommendations and to lend a helping hand and his shop is pretty cool also. You can't go wrong staying here if you're staying in Mt Dora
