Global Resort Homes and Big Thank You

I am back from wonderful and pretty spectacular trip to Florida on an event called Brandcation.   The main sponsor of the event was Global Resort Homes and they put us up in some pretty nice resort homes for our 4 day stay in Kissimmee Florida. The houses that we stayed at were beautiful resort homes.

I arrived in the evening on Thursday and headed over to our house so I could get rid of my luggage and go next door to meet up with the girls.  When I walked into our home, I was pleasantly surprised at how much space there was and how big all of our rooms were.  I was excited to be here!  Everything was nicely laid out, and even the dining tables were set.

The kitchen was beautiful and decked out with all stainless steel appliances and plenty of counter space.  This is a huge plus when you are vacationing, because you can have all of the amenities of home while you are away on vacation.  Each home was equipped with some of the basic cooking utensils and pans that you would need to make food while you are in the house and no need to over pack because you have your own washer and dryer.so you can toss in a load and go for a swim in your own private pool and hot tub.  I didn’t get the chance to take a swim, but the pool is heated and looked very inviting.


This was much better than staying in a hotel room, because you had space to just move about.  There were eight of us staying in our house, and yet we all could find that we had space to either sit in our rooms, take a shower, or just hang out downstairs, I never really felt crowded at all.

The best part about Global Resort Homes is their locations to nearby attractions.  We were just minutes from the front gates of Disney.  I had rented a car and even though I wasn’t used to driving in Florida, finding my way to the Magic Kingdom was very easy and literally just minutes from our Florida vacation home.  We were also very near to local grocery and department stores, so it makes it easy to get the stuff you need for your stay.  After staying in just a hotel room with the four of us in Florida previously, I can honestly say that I appreciate having access to  basic needs in the comfort of a home rather than just a single room.  For me it is nice to be able to put your kids down for a nap in one room, and you can be doing things in another.  If anything it is worth staying in one of these homes for the sheer practicality of it.  It is also surprisingly inexpensive to stay there off of Disney property.

Brandcation was awesome, but it wouldn’t have been possible without a place to stay.  Thank you to Global Resort Homes for such a warm and inviting welcome.  You can check out Global Resort Homes for your next family Florida vacation and become a fan on the Global Resort Homes facebook page.  They are also sponsoring a really wonderful contest so you can experience first hand Global Resort Homes.
