Florida in winter

With 16 million citizens and 170,000 square kilometres of land, Florida is as large and varied as a medium sized country. Florida, of course, is known for many things: the Everglades; the sun, sand, and surf that make up Florida’s 1500 kilometres of beaches; the Florida Keys; South Beach, the trendiest place in the world at the moment; and yes, Disney World. But there is much more…

Florida is one of the top vacation and retirement spots in the country. Orlando, Florida is a particularly well-known destination. Known for its amusement parks and picturesque landscapes that look cut right out of a postcard, Orlando is an ideal place for people looking for a winter getaway.  Over the past few years, high demand for vacation homes in Florida has boomed

Villas, condos, and vacation homes in Orlando, Florida can be rented for a fraction of the price of a regular hotel room. For example, given regular hotel rates, a week’s stay for two could set you back more than $1,000. On the other hand, many Orlando vacation homes can house ten people for a week for half this rate. Most vacation homes come with private pools; some even boast of game rooms and Jacuzzis.
