Margaritaville brings a resort-style sensibility to Kissimmee, with a vacation-home vibe built around leisure, gated streets and a quick hop to the theme parks. It's the kind of place that draws second-home buyers and short-term rental investors as much as full-timers, with tropical-themed design and an entertainment-forward lifestyle just 26 minutes from Walt Disney World. If you want a turnkey home that feels like you never left the resort, this corner of Kissimmee is squarely aimed at you.
The market here reads differently than a typical residential subdivision. With 67 active listings and a median list price of $375,000, inventory is deep and homes sit longer — the median is 147 days on market — which gives patient buyers room to negotiate, though sellers still net about 96% of asking. Expect higher carrying costs than a standard neighborhood: the median HOA runs $777/month and reflects the resort amenities, and the rental picture (median $3,100/month) is a big part of why buyers come. Nearby communities like Storey Lake and Solara compete for the same short-term-rental buyer, so compare carefully.
Margaritaville is a community in Kissimmee, Florida.

Living in Margaritaville
Margaritaville is a resort-themed community in Kissimmee, Osceola County, built around a leisure-forward lifestyle and quick access to Central Florida's theme parks. It's designed to feel like a vacation destination you can own, with tropical styling, gated sections and amenities that lean into the entertainment-and-relaxation theme. The result is a neighborhood that attracts a particular kind of buyer rather than a broad residential cross-section.
Who it suits: second-home owners who want a Florida base near Disney, investors buying for short-term rental income, and full-time residents comfortable trading a standard subdivision for resort-style living. With Walt Disney World about 26 minutes away and the broader Orlando attractions corridor within roughly 40 minutes, the location is built for people whose lives revolve around leisure and travel more than a daily office commute.
The trade-off is cost and character. This isn't a quiet, settled residential enclave — it's a lively, tourism-oriented community with HOA fees to match the amenities. Buyers who embrace that energy tend to be very happy here; those seeking a conventional neighborhood feel should look closely before committing.
Neighborhoods and communities in Margaritaville
Margaritaville sits within a cluster of resort and vacation-home communities across the Kissimmee area, and it's worth comparing them directly since they compete for the same buyers. Notable nearby communities include Lake Marion Village, Storey Lake, Solara, Solivita, and Windsor at Westside — each with its own amenity package and rental rules.
Short-term-rental investors often weigh Margaritaville against Storey Lake and Solara, both of which are purpose-built for vacation homes with resort amenities. Buyers seeking an active-adult or more traditional residential setting sometimes look at Solivita instead, which has a different lifestyle focus.
The practical takeaway: define whether you want primary residence, second home, or income property first, then let that steer which community fits. The HOA structure, rental policy and amenity mix vary meaningfully from one community to the next, so don't assume they're interchangeable.
Homes for sale in Margaritaville: prices and housing
There are currently 67 active listings with a median list price of $375,000, spanning a wide band from $179,000 to $1,375,000. Homes average $338 per square foot with a median size around 1,305 square feet, so you're buying compact, amenity-rich units at a location premium. Over the past 12 months, 42 homes sold at a median price of $391,500, with sellers achieving about 96% of asking on average.
The pace is deliberate — median days on market is 147, notably slower than a typical residential neighborhood, which gives buyers negotiating room while keeping final pricing firm. Of the active inventory, 27 listings are in gated sections, 6 have pools, 5 are waterfront, and just 2 are new construction. Two listings sit above $1 million, so there's a luxury tier alongside the entry-level product.
Carrying costs are the headline for budgeting. The median HOA is $777/month and median property tax is $7,826/year, both higher than standard Kissimmee neighborhoods because of the resort amenities and services. With a median rent of $3,100/month, many buyers offset those costs through short-term or long-term rental income — but always confirm rental rules for the specific home before you rely on that math.
Schools in Margaritaville
The most commonly assigned schools for this area are Osceola County School for the Arts, Celebration High School, and Westside K-8 School, all within the Osceola County School District. These are the schools that come up most often for addresses in the community, but assignments can vary block by block.
Because many buyers here are purchasing second homes or rental properties, school zoning is a secondary concern for a good share of the market. For full-time families, though, it remains important to verify the exact assignment rather than relying on a general area map.
The reliable way to confirm a zone is to run the specific property address through the Osceola County School District's school-locator tool. If a particular school is a deciding factor, make that check before you write an offer, since boundaries are subject to change.
Getting around Margaritaville
The community's location is built around theme-park and attraction access rather than a downtown commute. Walt Disney World is about 26 minutes away, making it the closest major destination, while Universal Orlando sits roughly 40 minutes out.
For travel and work beyond the parks, Downtown Orlando is about 39 minutes away and Orlando International Airport (MCO) is roughly 43 minutes. That airport proximity is a real plus for second-home owners and investors who fly in and out regularly.
The surrounding road network ties into the Kissimmee tourism corridor, which makes reaching the attractions straightforward but can mean heavier seasonal traffic. If you'll be commuting daily to Orlando, factor the drive time into your decision rather than treating this as a close-in urban location.
Is Margaritaville a good place to live?
Margaritaville is a strong fit for the right buyer and a mismatch for others, so honesty matters. If you want a resort lifestyle, proximity to Disney, and either a Florida second home or a short-term rental investment, this community delivers on all three — the median $3,100/month rent and theme-park access are exactly what draw people here.
The trade-offs are real. The median HOA of $777/month and property taxes near $7,826/year make carrying costs higher than a conventional neighborhood, and the 147-day median time on market signals a slower, investor-driven resale environment. Buyers who want a quiet, purely residential feel may find the tourism energy and rental turnover not to their taste.
For buyers who go in clear-eyed, the deep inventory of 67 listings and reasonable entry pricing from $179,000 create genuine opportunity, especially given the negotiating room a slower market provides. Decide your purpose first — primary home, second home, or income property — and compare Margaritaville against neighboring resort communities before committing.

Margaritaville FAQs
Is Margaritaville a good place to live?+
It suits buyers who want a resort lifestyle and easy theme-park access — Walt Disney World is about 26 minutes away. It's especially popular with second-home owners and short-term rental investors drawn to the median $3,100/month rent. Full-time residents should weigh the HOA cost against the amenities before committing.
Is Margaritaville expensive?+
The median list price is $375,000 with a range from $179,000 up to $1,375,000, so entry points are reasonable by Orlando-area standards. The bigger cost is carrying: the median HOA is $777/month and median property tax runs $7,826/year. Budget for those ongoing expenses, not just the purchase price.
What do homes cost in Margaritaville?+
Active listings carry a median list price of $375,000, and homes that sold over the last year closed at a median of $391,500. At an average of $338 per square foot with a median home size around 1,305 square feet, you're paying resort-location premiums for compact, amenity-rich homes.
How is the market right now?+
There are 67 active listings and 42 homes sold in the past 12 months, with a median 147 days on market — a slower pace that favors buyers. Sellers still achieve about 96% of asking on average, so pricing stays firm even when homes take time to move. Communities like Solara draw the same investor pool, which keeps competition steady.
What are the HOA fees and taxes like?+
The median HOA here is $777/month, which is high relative to typical Kissimmee neighborhoods but reflects the resort amenities and services. Median property tax comes in at $7,826/year. Always confirm exactly what the HOA covers and whether short-term rentals are permitted for your specific unit.
What schools are assigned to Margaritaville?+
The most commonly assigned schools are Osceola County School for the Arts, Celebration High School, and Westside K-8 School. Because zoning can vary by address, confirm the exact assignment with the Osceola County School District before you buy. School zones matter less here for vacation-home buyers but remain important for full-time families.
How is the commute from Margaritaville?+
Orlando International Airport is about 43 minutes away and Downtown Orlando roughly 39 minutes. Universal Orlando sits around 40 minutes out, while Walt Disney World is the closest major draw at about 26 minutes. The location leans toward leisure and tourism access more than a daily downtown commute.
Is there new construction in Margaritaville?+
Inventory includes a small amount of new construction — 2 of the 67 active listings — alongside resale homes. Buyers wanting brand-new product may find more options in comparable resort communities such as Storey Lake. Ask your agent to track new-release phases if that's a priority.
