Guest Reviews
- TIMOTHY (10/5): - The grounds were being redone so there were materials scattered about. No big deal at all. The place is amazing. I spent a lot of time on the screened-in porch. It was very nice. I'll stay here again.
- Ramon (2/5): - found long red hairs on my bed. the floor still needed to be swept. old outdated bed! will not be back
- Tomi (10/5): - We have visited this property several times at least three and we were very comfortable there considering we like the separate bedrooms, even though there kitchen was adequate with a full refrigerator. The puppy was very comfortable as well..
- Lurline (8/5): Great Stay in Mt Dora Estate - Great stayed in Mt Dora Estate for two nights. There was an issue when arriving at 9:00 pm the property was dark and couldn’t find it to register. But located a number on the door and spoke with someone very friendly that help us with the registration and check in. After that it was smooth sailing, the room and bathroom were completely remodeled very cleaned, with a restaurant nearby within walking distance. Met the owner of the property the next day, very friendly who shows us the property, which part of it still in renovations. Would definitely stay again.
- Kelly (10/5): - The owners are very kind and responsive
- Katherine (8/5): - The rooms were beautiful, the location ideal - just far enough from downtown Mt. Dora that my husband didn't make me walk the whole time. There were a couple of decent bars/restaurants within walking distance. The kitchen was well stocked and the linens were high-quality. We had control of the thermostat and enough covers on the beds to keep us comfortable. I would definitely stay at The Estate at Mt. Dora again.
- Catherine (10/5): - The only negative is that it would be nice to have an outlet (or extension cord) so my phone could charge on the nightstand in the first BR. Otherwise, perfect!!
- james (10/5): - Very nice place and it’s quiet
- heather (10/5): - The Estate was an easy and convenient option for a short stay in Mount Dora to visit family. The space was perfect for us with 2 beds and a kitchenette. It was quiet and pretty. Logistics of getting in were easy and the proprietors checked in with us to ensure everything was OK. Well-located! Recommend the nearby Highland Cafe for breakfast.
- Linda (10/5): - Lovely hidden getaway, but still within walking distance to great restaurants and shopping
- Christopher (10/5): - It was beautiful, cozy and comfortable
- Judith (8/5): - The stay was good, beds were comfortable, house itself is just old could use some updating. The sh
- Ric (10/5): - Clean and comfortable, very quiet, made for away to feel a bit like home. Will stay again.
- Stephanie (10/5): - Very cute little place to stay. Had everything we needed. Thank you
- Bridget (10/5): - Staying at the Estate at Mount Dora was an absolute delight! From the moment we stepped into our room, we loved how cozy everything felt. The room was nicely decorated. The bed was comfortable, especially after a long day or touring, and every detail, from the plush linens to the charming decor, showed real care and thought.
- cheryl (10/5): - Nice location, comfortable and clean
- Eden (10/5): - I would absolutely stay here again! For a short weekend to explore Mount Dora, I'd say it was an overall good choice! It's in walking distance to all of the shops and restaurants to explore in the historic area and just an overall nice area. At night, it's the prettiest because they have night lights all around the property and it's so comforting. A cute, well-kept little place to stay for a short while. I wish there were a stove in the room, but we managed without one, as the room had a toaster and microwave. I'd say the only ussue I had was with cleanliness in the beginning when some random items were left behind from the owners from when they were cleaning the room, but that's really only something that could've happened once in a lifetime. They even offered us a new room in case we had wanted it for the inconvenience, but decided to stay with our current because of the aesthetic. I liked this place! Would stay again! Friendly and attending staff, nice atmosphere, and super home-y!
- Larry (10/5): Great and Relaxing Stay - Beautiful room and comfortable bed. Was clean and had a beautiful, relaxing outdoor porch.
- Kelly (10/5): - Enjoyed our stay at this quaint property. Didn't really mind that no staff is actually on-site; it's makes for a secluded, quiet stay. Room was large and well-appointed.
- Rossana (10/5): - Very interesting and nice place!
- Ashley (10/5): - The room I stayed in was absolutely perfect! It was recently updated, very clean and had everything I needed. Private patio was a nice touch. The property and surrounding area was very quiet. I have family in the area so I will definitely stay here every time I come back!
- Tammy (2/5): Reservation messed up!!!! - What is below a 1for eating. Hotel showed us booking through Expedia but we did not and booked through hotels.com we booked a Friday night stay they saved a Monday night stay and did nothing to assist us. If fact just told us that we have to cancel 5 days in advance on dates we didn’t even book. Beyond frustrated with Leo who failed to listen or assist us!!! Stay away from this facility and staff.
- T (10/5): - The room and bed were very comfortable and we felt right at home. We enjoyed sitting in the beautiful and inviting outdoor areas. The staff was very helpful and responsive when we contacted them.
- Ginger (10/5): Brief get away - Spotless rooms the bed was very comfortable and hotel was as described. Highly recommend.
- Eva (10/5): - Cute and nice place. Remembered me of my favorite book;) Bed was very comfortable.
- Diane (10/5): - This was a charming older home with lots more f character!!! Loved the porch!!! So convenient for walking to the village atea! Quiet and peaceful!!!
- mike (10/5): - lovely home
- jennifer (10/5): - Like!
- marlou (10/5): - it was a nice birthday/business trip
- Robyn (10/5): - Lovrly
- John (10/5): - Perfect for me as I was there to bass fish--big enough for a couple too!
- Mark (8/5): Good Place, great location, great price. - Everything was good, except the poor water pressure. Also it took a long time to get hot water. Location was great, maybe update to porch furniture.
- Lauren (10/5): - Three of us stayed in the Magnolia suite for 2 nights. It has two separate rooms for the bed and a nice little kitchenette area and private porch. The shower is on the smaller side and the water temperature is a little temperamental, but once you figure out how to maneuver it, the shower was pleasant. We enjoyed the location and walked to downtown Mount Dora to shop and eat. I paid for early arrival which worked out nicely. We never saw any staff on site, but we didn’t need anything and the anonymity was nice. All three of us would stay here again.
- Denise (10/5): Mt. Dora - It was a great stay. Perfect location,easy access in and out,quiet overall great place.
- Leomard (8/5): - Good location. Very quiet.
- Kim (10/5): Cozy home - Very comfortable, clean and cozy. Lovely house on a big piece of property with convenience parking. The room was stocked with everything we needed, including a coffee maker with all the fixings. A quiet neighborhood with just a 15 minute walk to downtown.
- Jung Hyup (6/5): - The house itself exudes character and charm, and the overall ambiance is serene, making it an excellent spot for those seeking peace and relaxation. My room was quite spacious, but unfortunately, it felt outdated, and the bathroom was not as comfortable to use as I had hoped. The fixtures could benefit from some modernization to enhance the overall experience. The shared spaces, on the other hand, were beautifully designed—cozy, inviting, and perfect for unwinding. Although I didn’t get a chance to use them during my stay, they certainly added to the warm and welcoming atmosphere. With a little attention to updating the rooms and bathrooms, this hotel could be a true gem. It’s a good choice if you value charm and tranquility over modern amenities.
- joseph (10/5): - Beautiful old home
- Diane (6/5): - It’s old buildings so not of charm but very musty, house keeper no good (Soap residue leftover in bathroom, lots of dust, unfolded towels). Broken blinds. Very clean and cozy bed.
- Annie Ruth (6/5): - We really liked the house and atmosphere. "Staff and Service" rating is because there was absolutely no contact with anyone. Very impersonal!! What bothered us the most was the lack of security. I assumed the door codes were changed regularly. Apparently not, as the information binder in the room had both codes. Anyone who stayed here in the paste would have both codes with access to our room at any time. There was not even a deadbolt on the inside to secure during the night.
- Mark (10/5): Weekend Stay - We spent a couple's weekend in Mount Dora using The Estates at Mount Dora for our lodging. The room was clean and comfortable with upgraded linens and towels. Extra large shower with rain-shower head and wand. Mount Dora has a free transportation service and this property is inside it's arra of service. This makes transportation to the heart of shops and restaurants a breeze.
- Natasha (10/5): - Perfection!
- Ruth (10/5): - We enjoyed being able to walk to everything, it was .6 miles to town. The room was clean and the owner checked in frequently on us. They had a couple good restaurants nearby. We enjoyed Jeremiah.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We unfortunately got moved to another location which was a further walking distance to the craft festival however we did get a discount for the inconvenience.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Only downside is that the floors for the second floor make the room on the first floor very loud even if just walking casually.
- Tegan (10/5): - Everything was wonderful! Would recommend.
- amy (10/5): - This was close to the downtown area. Very quaint and the room was clean, bed was comfortable.
- Robert (4/5): - There is no staff. Everything is done remotely. The room was smaller than the pictures, and had a musty smell that was so bothersome that we only stayed for the first of a scheduled two day prepaid stay. Also, it's much further from downtown than it looks, which could be a difficult walk for older guests. Driving downtown would be a problem during the weekends when downtown parking is difficult to find.
- William (10/5): - It was like stepping back in time. Everything was super clean. Definitely will go back again.
- Sharon (10/5): - the place was terrific and really enjoyed my stay with my sister.
- Steve (10/5): - .
- Lois (10/5): - The grounds are well cared for with a gazebo too. A short walk to a breakfast restaurant. A short drive to downtown for shops and restaurants. The accommodation was clean and comfortable.
- John (6/5): A bit over priced , I wouldn't stay there again. - The room was clean and neat but the layout was odd. There is no door on the kitchen and the refrigerator was noisy all night, bathroom was a little tight and we also shared a balcony with another room. The online pre check-in and access was far more complicated than it needs to be. Threatening to charge if a guest takes any items (coffee, saop, sugar,etc.) was not very welcoming.
- George D. (8/5): Some improvements needed. - Mirror in bathroom is not functional and lighting above mirror was flimsy and loose. Ceiling fan blades are in need of a serious cleaning. Shower faucet handles are loose which makes it difficult to turn water on/off. Lack of lighting at the house entrance door creates a hazard climbing the stairs and entering the home.
- marta (10/5): - Nice and diferent
- Maj (10/5): - My family loved the place. Just loved the nature and the vintage interior of the house. It may be old but still well kept and maintained. We just enjoyed our stay and wished to stay more days at Mount Dora.
- Thomas (10/5): - Convenience
- JENNIFER (10/5): - Excellent stay!
- Rosalba (10/5): - Everything was super clean, the matress was very comfortable. The perfect place to have a quiet and respectful weekend.
- Walter (4/5): - Check-in was a hassle. Then the lock would not lock as we were leaving our room. Had to have maintenance come over and fix it .Our room was on the gronud floor and the guests who were staying above us were up most of the night and we could hear every step they took. The floors were very creaky.
- Joyce (10/5): The Estate at Mt Dora is quiet and comfortable - Traveled to Mt Dora for my husband's birthday: biking, bites, bourbon, and browsing the local shops. The accommodations were about 10 blocks from downtown and an easy 10-15 minute walk. Our room, the Azalea, was on the second floor. Very spacious, and clean, quiet and had a comfy bed. Air conditioner was a little musty but you can get that in an older house. The house itself housed 4 units and another 4 units in a carriage house adjacent to the property. Host was very reachable and texted several times with messages and offered any help we might need. Parking on the premises made it convenient.
- Cynthia (8/5): - Great historic property
- Teresa (10/5): - What a beauitiful 1870's estate that has been lovingly restored. The bed was the epitome of comfort. Perfectly appointed, comfortble & in a great town who has revitalized into a perfect stay. We plan to visit annuallannually
- bernadette (10/5): - I really enjoyed staying in my lil suite clean comfy so inviting, I wish I wasn't working and could spend more time at the place stayed 3 days
- U (10/5): - Well appointed room with plenty of towels, available toiletries, kitchen with plenty of utensils, beautifully decorated property with especially comfortable seating and common area. Property is located within walking to beautiful downtown area with abundance of dinning options. Hosts were personable, keeping in touch via texts to make sure we were enjoying our stay. Highly recommended. Will stay here again!!!
- patricia (8/5): - Super cute place and the room was great!! The bathroom on the other hand was extremely small. Like your feet rest in the shower when you are sitting on the toilet. Honestly the bathroom was our only complaint, everything else was awesome!
- Leonard (10/5): - Good value, close in, quiet neighborhood, historical building, easy parking. Bathroom smallish, no staff on premises but quick phone response, wanted more history of the property. Would stay again.
- Nancy (8/5): - Both shower handles came off while I was in the shower. Two of three lamps were unplugged. Room was set up very nicely.
- Patti (10/5): - Our room was large, cute and clean. The Estate is conveniently located less than 15 minutes from downtown MD. Their are restaurants near to try. The owner kept in touch with us dsily.
- Kathy (10/5): - We like staying in historic Bed & Breakfast Inns and though this is not a true B&B, it has that flavor and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a lovely, historic building with tree covered grounds and is very relaxing. It is a 1/2 mile walk to downtown, which has many great restaurants and shopping opportunities. Be sure to take the 2 hour boat tour on Lake Dora. Looking forward to visiting again in the future.
- Tammy (10/5): - We LOVED our stay at The Estates! Our suite was beautiful, comfortable and peaceful! The house was immaculately clean! We could walk to downtown and eateries! We would definitely stay here again and again! Note-stairs to upstairs suites are steep. If you have problems with steps stay downstairs or in the carriage house.
- Holly (8/5): - I thought the transformation of the barn was very uniquely done. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. Love the coffee area . Restaurants and shopping are close by.
- Shelley (6/5): - This property was convenient to downtown, had ample parking, and was in a quiet neighborhood. Text communication (with owner?) was good and directions for entry and internet connection were thorough. Beds were comfortable. We were surprised to learn that we were on the second floor, so if this is an issue for you, ask in advance of booking. There appeared to be 9 units at this property.. A charming looking older house and a building behind the house. We stayed on the 2nd floor of the building behind the house.
- Enrique (10/5): - It was a wonderful place. The room was absolutely beautiful and comfortable very clean. Easy access to shopping stores. Restaurants, really enjoy it .can’t wait to stay again.
- kevin (10/5): Exceeds Expectations - We spent two nights for NYE 2023-2024 and loved it here. Our space was bigger than we anticipated for the price we paid and loved that the main house and individual rooms had their own keyless entry. A super comfy king bed and a modern BIG TV with Netflix & YouTube TV accounts already logged in was a nice bonus, even though we didn't spend a lot time watching TV when in the room. Other apps available if you're willing to log into your own accounts. Spacious kitchenette and well stocked coffee/tea bar with Keurig or carafe options. HUGE and beautiful common areas downstairs and a shared veranda with one other room upstairs (at least we believed it was shared with the adjacent room). Outside sported a swing bench and hammock on a mostly quiet, tree canopied road that leads directly into the attractive heart of downtown Mount Dora. Mount Dora is beautiful anytime of year but especially so with the magic of Christmas. The Estate is within walking distance of three good restaurants and downtown, if you're up for the mile-long jaunt. Owners checked in on us regularly via SMS but not annoyingly. We will definitely book here again.
- Jewel (4/5): - Although we were in the converted garage aka "cottage" we were given access to the main house which has a den, kitchen and lovely screened porch.
- Raymond (10/5): - Wonderful location very clean well maintained room with all the accessories could easily serve as a efficiently room
- Diane (10/5): - We had a charming efficiency room ("Lily") in the carriage house. While the bathroom could use an update, it was very well appointed, as was the entire room and kitchenette. Clean, comfortable, and quaint. Best of all, the management truly cares about their guests' comfort and satisfaction. When an issue popped up on our first morning, Stephen took care of it immediately and went above and beyond for us. We would gladly stay here again!
- Marty (10/5): - Very nice & quiet place nice charm
- marlene (10/5): Great place - Beautiful place and excellent location
- Maria (8/5): - The room was clean and the service wine and a welcome kit form you. This a nice place to share with family
- Natoshia (8/5): - Quiet and easy in/out; The bigger bed fell on the top left side corner when my husband went to lay on it but it was still a good bed for him to sleep.
- c m (8/5): - The property is awesome, very cute. I think the only issue we had was the water pressure in the shower was little to none. That was our only complaint everything else was very nice. Would definitely stay here again if the water pressure as fixed.
- Dennis (8/5): - Room was great. Had an awesome time
- Rita (8/5): - The bathroom was much too small an the bed was very uncomfortable. The room was actually too small for 3 people. There was too much furniture to navigate. The room was not very soundproof so we heard everything going on outside. Also, it needs a solid bifold door on the bathroom for more privacy. The location was great and the patio area was a great dining area but it needs 3 chairs. It was within walking distance of the city center and the tree lined street was gorgeous. It is a great place to stay if you are on a budget.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Great and quiet place to stay !
- Samantha (10/5): - We lived this property! Woukd definitely revisit, soon!
- Frank (8/5): Slow coffee pot - It was clean, these are petty details, the tv was a pickle, whoever rented it before us, passcoded the TV and made it impossible to watch a program, but the lady that cleans the rooms fixed it for us, the coffee pot was slow, it took 8 minutes to brew with a k-cup and the refrigerator door leaked right in front of the bathroom door. I didn't like the stairs, cause I'm old, but that's my fault for not asking. Otherwise it was lovely, its very quiet and peaceful, all the neighbors where nice and quiet. I loved the porches and the tree swing. Its close to downtown and lots of bars and restaurants. If you stay be sure to go down to the Lakeside Inn and have a cocktail and watch the sunset over the lake. Awesome sight. Jeramiah's is within walking distance and it was good. We ate there 3 times cause of the closeness. Enjoy your stay.
- Tonya (10/5): - Great location to downtown Mt dora. The beds were superb. Great nights sleep. Price for this place was affordable. Thank you!
- Priya (10/5): - Beautiful well maintained property
- Evelyn (10/5): - Extremely comfortable
- tracy (10/5): - A great place for a girls trip. We enjoyed the "homey feel" and took advantage of the kitchen, dining, front porch and living room.
- TIMOTHY A (6/5): 1 out of 2 ain't bad - Shower dripped and got floor wet. Used up our towels drying it up. No staff on site to get new linen and only gave us 2 face cloths for 2 night stay. Only other guest stayed above us and we could hear every move they made through the floor. I stayed in the other building before and it was much nicer. I recommend that you Avoid gardenia, Willow, marigold and Lily rooms. They're in the out- building. And bathroom is much too cramped. I will stay again as long as i stay in main building
- Kimala (2/5): - Upon arrival, the room smelled of mold and mildew. There were no directions on how to operate the AC. We were hot at night. Figuring out the TV was near to impossible. The paperthin walls made it ridiculous to sleep as we heard the guy next-door to us snoring all night. The bathroom is so small that you had to put your feet on top of the shower step when you were on the toilet. The bathroom sink was not big enough to put two hands in. The door to the bathroom was a folding door that would not even close. Again, the walls are so thin that you could hear people talk cough, snore and also we heard their TV all night. The grounds were muddy, which made our car filthy inside. We were extremely disappointed in our choice and we’re thankful we were only there for two nights.
- Verified traveler (10/5): First daugher & mother trip - This was our first daughter and mother trip, the room was very nicely kept, very clean & decorated. I would book again. Our only issue was the AC in main room was noisy, not so bad during the day, but hard to fall asleep. Secondly .having chairs or a small sofa to sit would have been great...plan to schedule another trip in november
- John (10/5): - Beautiful property. Wonderful historic gem worth preserving. Love that the owners are engaged in preservation.
- Derik (10/5): - I’m in town on a business trip and I allowed the CFO to choose my accommodations for the week. They, of course, booked the cheapest place they could find. And naturally, I got what they paid for, a terrible experience (I’ll spare you the details of the bad experience and get to the point) I made an executive decision and checked out of that place and found this one myself. Boy am I glad I did. For only about $30 more a night, the difference is astounding. I feel a level of hospitality here of that of a family member or close friend. It’s been much needed, and very much appreciated. Such lovely vibes. Thank you!
- Yazminda (8/5): - The property was very clean and I loved that!
- william (10/5): - This property is amazing! So cute so colonial. Loved the creaking of the wood floors the swinging of the screen door. The grand piano as soon as you walk in. With multiple music books. just an amazing place. Close to everything downtown. Five minute drive. A must stay when in the Mount Dora area.
- Fallon (6/5): - The walls are super thin! The bathroom was tiny, like have to put your feet in the shower to use the toilet tiny! Other than that it’s great! Great staff and area to stay in!
