Perfect stay
Has all you need including very comfy clean big beds and an extra twin! The luxury big reclining couch was a huge hit and perfect for watching a movie before bedtime or watching the news with coffee/tea in the morning! Easy walk to the lake, all the great food and shops in Mt Dora. We loved it so much we stayed an extra night.

1st Mt. Dora Trip
This was our first time being in Mt. Dora. Under the Palms was a perfect selection for us to stay. We had our 3-year old German Shepard with us and we had never seen him more relaxed. The location was perfect, a short 3 block walk into the downtown area, but far enough away that our dog could enjoy his daily walks through the neighborhoods without encountering a lot of people. Under the Palms is a nice 2 bedroom 1 bath unit with the owners nearby. The place was well kept and very clean. The beds were really comfortable which was great for resting after walking the street of Mt. Dora. The owners were very nice and even allowed us early check-in. We highly recommend considering Under the Palms when visiting Mt. Dora. We will definitely be returning.

We loved this little home away from home…..an escape for us from the big city to the charming small town of Mt Dora. Luanne and Randy instantly endeared themselves to us! Their rental was clean and confortable and had everything we needed. The location can’t be beat. We loved playing Pickleball a block and a half away and walking everywhere. Restaurants overlooking the lake were our favorites. We would highly recommend this idyllic spot.

Perfect location for craft fair
The home was just perfect for our weekend stay to see family and go to the craft fair. The home is well appointed and comfortable. The owners communicated with us. They live onsite and we saw them throughout the weekend; kindly letting a family member park onsite to enjoy the short walk to the craft fair with us.

Wonderful and Relaxing Time
This property is located just 2 blocks from downtown Mt Dora! It’s an ideal location - close enough for shopping yet far enough away from the noise and traffic to relax in a lovely quiet neighborhood. The hosts were very attentive to our needs and quickly replied to any text messages. The home is well stocked with linens, blankets, towels, pillows as well as a fully stocked kitchen. On site parking for 1 car. If staying in Mt Dora, check out this pet friendly property. You won’t be disappointed. We will definitely be back!
