Vista Cay Resort Condos for Sale
Vista Cay Resort is a gated lakeside resort of 2- and 3-bedroom vacation condos, plus some 3-bedroom townhomes – holiday homes, as UK buyers call them – off Universal Blvd in Orlando, about 8 miles from Walt Disney World, where short-term rentals (STR) are allowed. It sits next to the Orange County Convention Center and about a mile from both SeaWorld and Epic Universe, so units can draw convention travelers as well as theme-park families.

Can You Rent a Vista Cay Condo on Airbnb or Vrbo?
Yes. Vista Cay is approved for short-term rentals, so owners can rent by the night or week through the on-site rental program, a 3rd-party manager, or on their own through Airbnb and Vrbo. A short-term rental, or STR, is a home rented to vacationers rather than on a long-term lease. Many Orlando-area neighborhoods do not allow it; Vista Cay does.
Being beside the Orange County Convention Center gives Vista Cay a second source of guests beyond theme-park vacations, which can help fill midweek and off-season dates.
How Much Can Owners Use Their Vista Cay Condo?
Up to 6 months a year. If the on-site rental program manages your unit, it may set a lower limit. Contact us for current terms. See our list of resorts by maximum owner usage to compare.
