Most visitors associate a Florida vacation as being based in Orlando. Guests who have stayed more than once quickly recognize that Kissimmee is the place they are most likely to stay, and where all of the main shops and restaurants are located for tourists. Over 90% of the Florida vacation homes that VillaDirect.com offers are located in the town of Kissimmee. Kissimmee is in Osceola county (named after Chief Osceola, a Seminole Indian leader who famously refused to sign a land treaty in 1935). Kissimmee is located along part of the internationally famous highway 192 - which stretches for around 40 miles from Davenport out to the space coast of Florida. Most of the resorts and communities that the Kissimmee vacation homes we offer are located off the main strip and in quiet, peaceful areas, but with fast, easy access to the theme parks, restaurants and shops.
Orlando is the number one tourist destination in the world. Over 37 million visitors a year enjoy Orlando's entertainment, sports, shopping, dining, and nature activities, all in wonderfully warm climate with lush, colorful Florida scenery.

Following their stay in March 2007, Fuentes family from NJ, USA commented:-
We had a blast. We loved the house and our boys loved the pool so much they didn't want to go to Magic Kingdom. The house had everything we needed for a great family vacation.
