Disney
Land and Disney World Vacations
The big dream of most young children is to go to Disney
Land or Disney World. This vacation, though, can cost you an arm
and a leg! How do you keep it affordable and please the kids? There
are several things you can do to limit your costs and enjoy a great
Disney vacation.
Hilton Head
Island
Hilton Head Island was the first ecologically-planned
destination in The United States. Light pollution ordinances are in
effect across the island to protect the habits of the loggerhead turtles
which sometimes confuse the lights of dwellings and street lights with
that of the ocean. Protections are in place to protect the beautiful
live oaks and palmetto trees which cover the island. Salt marshes, beaches
and lagoons remain in pristine condition across the island. While modern
conveniences such as shopping malls and five star hotels are widely
available; care has been taken to blend these structures into the native
ecology as much as possible.
Nags Head
- A Perfect Oceanside Getaway That Is Rich In History
Nags Head has grown into a summer resort area and has some of the best
beach recreation on the North Carolina Coast. The name of the town has
many tales associated with it. The most popular is the story that pirates
would tie lanterns to the necks of their horses or nags, and walk them
on the beach at night. The ship captains, thinking this was a safe opportunity
to rob the ships. This is a far cry from Nags Head's attraction today.
Once a remote area, Nags Head now has accomodations ranging from classic,
old timey cottages to oceanfront vacation homes. Other options include
cozy cottages, quaint bed and breakfasts, hotels and motels.
Orlando Vacation
Fun Begins (or Ends) with Gatorland
What’s Gatorland? Well, I’m glad you
asked. Gatorland is a great “in between”
place to visit while you’re in Orlando for vacation.
Best Florida
Beaches
Why choose a beach vacation in Florida? One good
reason is because wherever you go in Florida, you're never more than
60 miles from the beach!
Hilton
Head Island Vacation Rental
There are many vacation rental options available on Hilton Head Island.
Villas and condos, homes and timeshares are all available in varying
price ranges.Most vacation villa rentals range from $500 per week for
a one bedroom accomodation up to $3000 per week for a 3 bedroom rental.
Of course location and ameneties play a part in the price of these rentals.
Rentals located on the ocean with private beach acesss fetch a higher
price than those without.
The Florida Keys
When people ask about the top sights to see in the south Florida area
including Fort Lauderdale and Miami, I always advise them to try and make
some time to go down to the Florida Keys. The Florida Keys are the string
of islands just south of the Florida mainland and runs 120 miles from
end to end. Fort Lauderdale and Miami are fun but for a relaxing change
of pace, the Florida Keys is the place to be.
