ORLANDO

Orlando is the centre for any Florida holiday, the only problem you'll have is organising your time because no matter how long you stay, we guarantee you won't manage to visit every attraction you want to! A bit of prior planning goes a long way, so get some kind of rough itinerary together (after all, the anticipation is all part of the excitement!).

You will find a detailed file with lots of useful information about the local area and facilities in the Villa. In addition there is a wealth of information in the free maps and guides available from super markets, petrol stations and restaurants as well as the local ticketing agents.

Once you have planned a basic itenery why not save yourself valuable time at the ticket office as well as some hard earned cash by ordering your attraction tickets online. Click HERE for more information.

LOCAL AREA

Adjacent to Highlands reserve is a small shopping centre, with a supermarket, liquor store, and pizza resturant. Highlands reserve also offers a childrens play area and large community swimming pool; all within a short walk of the Villa.

In addition, there are a multitude of resturants and bars, as well as many gift shops a short drive away on I192.

International Drive is the original centre of Orlando, with lots of bars, restaurants and, of course, Wet 'n Wild.

Disney Old Town is a short drive away at Celebration on the 192 and offers bars and resturants as well as weekly custom car shows and a number of theme park rides.

The multiple attractions of this amazing place will bring constant amusement to the whole family, day and night.

 

GETTING HERE

Getting here from the UK you can fly direct non-stop to Orlando International Airport from Gatwick, Heathrow or Manchester, and then a short drive to your rental villa.

With many car rental companies on site at Orlando International you are never short of choice. Although there are always (famous last words!) cars available, it is a good idea to book in advance to get the best rate and save time when collecting your rental car.
