Save money in Florida – Rent A Villa

There are so many different reasons that make people decide where they go on holiday and where they stay. One of the big factors has to be the type of accommodation that is to be chosen. Especially for those that have not been to Florida before there is often the decision to stay in a hotel  as it is easy and makes the holiday simpler becuase they can stay on International drive or there is a bus service to the Parks etc….

Often people that book a hotel come back completely understanding why a villa Continue reading “Save money in Florida – Rent A Villa” »

Booking Your First Florida Villa

Whether you are booking your first ever holiday to Florida or are returning and wanting a villa there is always some element of trepidation with booking a villa direct from an owner and since the villa is such an important part of the holiday (it really is) there are a number of things to think about to decide what is most important for you!

Here is a list that we have put together to help get your brain thinking through some of the options

• Location, Location Location – A thing people often think is most important about the villa is the location. In my view this is actually one of the less important things. If you are hiring a villa then you are also going to have a car (hard work without one), the roads in Florida are rather different then the UK as they have this unique concept where Continue reading “Booking Your First Florida Villa” »

3 generation Florida Holidays

A holiday in Florida is a fantastic experience with the best thing being that there are so many pluses to the experience, the most important one I believe is that each time you go it actually gets better rather than feeling sammy There are few places that offer this but with the great mixture of almost perfect weather, atmosphere, endless attractions and events and the feeling of being in Florida it is somewhere you can go time and time again.

With the economy in the doldrums at the moment there are a lot of people looking at ways to make the most of holiday either by having less, or trying to save some money Continue reading “3 generation Florida Holidays” »

Florida Villa Website Rebuild

With another great summer just passed and getting time to start thinking about next years summer holiday the time has come to redesign Florida Premier Villas. The time has come to make the use of some changes in technology as well as making the website easier to use for customers. As part of this redesign we are completely changing the appearance of the website to a really clean design. Each villa will be having a whole new page as we move to a more professional, clean design making it easier for people looking for their dream villa to be able to locate the villa of their dreams.

The new site will offer the facility for customers to be able to find villas through a selection of different ways as well as offering the ability to contact villa owners easily. The site will offer the ability also to locate villas on a map to maximise the options for the customer.

If you are a villa owner and would like to suggest a tool that you think will help customer to find the right villa then please feel free to propose it, or if you looking for a villa but struggling please let us know what you are struggling with and if we can make it easier we will do our best to do so.

We hope to have the new Florida website ready in the next month or so and so if you have ideas let us know ASAP and we will try and build them into the new site.

Wizarding World Of Harry Potter Reviews

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter has been a long time coming, but has finally opened 13 YEARS after the first book was published back in 1997. The books have sold over 400 million copies in 67 languages and with a film series that is the highest grossing series of films of ALL TIME, this of course means that The Wizarding World of Harry Potter has a lot to live up to and so when it finally opened on the 18th June 2010 it was to much award having taken 6 years from idea to the doors opening.

A trip to Universal is a must and a visit to the Universal Studio Website is also a must trip to see the official information on the new Wizarding World. Here is a great site to visit to see to read some more information as well as there being video of people walking around the new part of the park.

Disneys Magic Kingdom

As far as I am concerned, this is Disney! Each time I have been to Florida the first thing we have always done is go to Magic Kingdom. This always gets us into the perfect mood and gets you ready for what must be your best holiday! Where else can you arrive at a park and on arrival to get to the gate you can either go by mono-rail or paddle steamer! We have yet to go on the monorail as ‘It Has To Be The Steamer’. On arriving at getting through the gates you arrive in the square at the bottom of Main Street. If you have ever seen the photos of a friend that has been to Florida, there is a picture of main street and the mighty castle at the far end, I still look at the photo from the first time I ever went there and remember the buzz and enjoyment of finally being there! You can even sit on a bench with Walt and Mickey mouse for a photo, albeit a bronze version (Mickey is busy after all).
This square is the start of the Magic Kingdom and the location for hiring pushchairs and the like for your day, you can of course take you own or hire them. At the far end of Main street in the mighty castle. This plays as centre point of the park with the 4 lands of Magic Kingdom as paths from this point. The 4 lands are .. Fantasyland, Frontierland, Adventureland and Tomorrowland. Each land has Magic Kingdom Continued……..

Florida Villas With Baby Facilities

As a father of 2 small children one thing that is slightly daunting about going to Florida is the planning and the amoung of stuff that you have to take with you. My kids are nearly 2 and 5, the 5 year old thank fully in now pretty much a child and so travelling and everything else is much easier, but not the case for the younger ones.

Therefore we have now created a list of Florida Villas that have advertised that they offer baby facilities specifically. These typically mean that they offer a highchair, cot and stroller (pushchair). When travelling I know plenty of people that would take a travel cot and a push chair, and although the airport might be a bit more hard work it would be nice not to have to take a push chair, and as for taking a cot!!!!! I think for people travelling with small children this should be really helpful and so please have a look and see what a help it can be.

Remember also that as you are dealing direct with the owners you could even ask for photos of the items, unlike when booking through a tour operatour where you will get a “typical” pushchair or cot and we tend to all have reservations about those!!  So check out the Orlando Florida Villas With Baby Facilties

On the main site we have also got a page that allows you to see villas by a certain facility wether Florida Villas By Facilties – More Info
