Renters now have the choice to view before they book.

How many times have you thought of booking your very own Florida villa? Only to be put off by the thought of not knowing where it was relative to the places where you and your family or travelling party, want to visit. Resulting in you opting for the less flexible and more expensive option of a hotel, where you have to share the amenities with other guest, find somewhere to get breakfast etc etc. Or perhaps you have booked a rental villa before, only to be disappointed upon your arrival.
Thankfully due to the highly detailed imagery, offered by Microsoft’s Virtual Earth, it is now possible not only to view many of Orlando’s rental communities, in high resolution, but you can also locate and inspect individual properties within them. The quality is such, that you can even see the size and shape of a rental properties pool! Simply click the ‘Bird’s eye’ link located at the top left of the map, and the image simply comes alive.
Some of the many other functions of the application include the ability to allow users to rotate around an area or a property. This allows you to inspect the location or property from each side Roads names and titles can be annotated onto the map, thereby making it easier for specific places to be located.
It is without doubt the best thing since the introduction of virtual tours of rental property. Now not only do you get he feel of the inside, but you also see where it is, what is near and find out how far it is from those all important theme parks, shopping malls and golf courses, which can also be inspected in the same high resolution detail.
Whilst the imagery covers a large area of the Cities popular rental zones, not all communities are available in the highest detail at this time.
This however has not prevented one of the newest and most comprehensive Florida Villa Rental Sites from utilising the technology, for the benefit of potential renters, who can now see for themselves the communities and the properties within them.
Garry Brown Director of http://www.directvillasflorida.com/ stated that his site has 56 of their featured communities available for viewing using this fantastic technology. Which he said will provide visitors with the extra confidence they need to book their very own villa direct from the owner, and thereby enjoy all the comforts and flexibility that comes with it.



Unlike some of the other similar applications available today, to achieve the best quality images, there is no cost involved, and there is no download to undertake prior to its use.
To experience this facility first hand, use any of the following links;
