How to get there
Firstly, the above price INCLUDES MAID SERVICE (For details see Rental Rates, NB. )
Our condo is located on the world famous INTERNATIONAL DRIVE in Orlando. Flights are easily available into both Orlando International Airport (MCO) which is 15 minutes (12 miles /19.5km) drive from Floridays, or Sanford (SAN) which is approx. 40 minutes ( 34 miles) to International Drive. Flights are available from major airports in Britain, London and Manchester with Virgin or British Airways. From IRELAND, Aer Lingus fly DIRECT from Dublin and Cork all year round.
All major car hire are available at MCO. We have found that in high season, pre-booking with Hertz before you go can save time. Eventhough they are not based at the airport they have a courtesy bus to their depot where your car will be ready-to-go. If you would prefer to collect your car at the airport, we would also recomment Almo.

Guestbook
This property is rated by Expedia.com as 4.7 out of 5. It is in their top 10
Stayed for two weeks in January. Really relaxing. A great time to be there, not so many people - no queues in the shops or parks. Weather was very pleasant, got a tan by the pool. Staff at Floridays were so helpful and most importantly the apartment was spotless.
There was 7 of us in the apartment and plenty of room for everyone. The full kitchen is so handy if you want to cook. The laundry machines were great having two kids with us, it ment not going home with lots of washing.
