[Karfy]

hi everyone

im another newbie! this site looks great, havent had a proper look yet but will go off and have a look in a sec..thought id say hi and introduce myself first. we are planning our first trip to florida yaaaaaaay (im really excited as u can guess hehe!!) its gonna be me, my big sis and my mum and dad and i love doing holiday research so coz my parents are busy and im at home a lot im looking u info about the trip

we are going next christmas and flying to miami on 14th December, staying there 5 nights and then driving up to orlando to stay at a disney hotel. we are sorting that out now and looks like we might stay at the polynesian, has anyone stayed there from here? then leaving disney on the 26th of december and driving down to naples, we're not exactly sure what we are going to do here and if we will stay there for a few nights or then go onto somewhere else, any suggestions? im going to look at the villa section on here for villas in naples/near naples.

we are coming over from London. we've wanted to do this trip in a really long time so is gonna be really special!

hope your all having a good day [clap] Karfy

Hi Karfy,
Welcome to the site.
Make sure you take a visit to Tin City in Naples and of course watch a sunset from the beach near the pier.
You are going to have a great time planning.
This is the right place to get all those questions answered. Perhaps even to consider a villa instead of a hotel.

Welcome Karfy
You sound like you have an amazing holiday planned!
Naples is one of my favourite places to visit, do the trolley bus tour as its really full of info about the area and gives you an idea of where everything is
This is a great forum for any questions you might want to ask.

Hello & welcome to the forum, hope you have a fantastic time in Florida, certainly sounds like you will. Don't forget to carry ID if you want to be served alcohol though as they are very strict abour underage drinking.[msnsmile2] Like Liz says, you and your family might like to stay in a villa on the Gulf coast, one of the ones connected to this site would be a great choice.[msnsmile]
