Kenny Doucette's Florida Vacation Rentals portal that offers best deals on Florida rentals including Fort Lauderdale vacation rental homes
When you're in the snow and ice thinking about your next vacation, most likely you're thinking about somewhere tropical, sunny, and warm! There's nothing that says vacation more than sitting on the beach, listening to the waves, sipping a colorful, fruity-tasting drink (umbrella included, of course). That's why Florida is one of the most popular vacation destinations in the United States.
If you're looking for a beach vacation, you can't go wrong with Florida. Even Orlando, located in central Florida, is only a couple of hours from the beach, so no matter where you go, you'll be able to get some sand and surf. However, for Florida beach vacations, there are cities that focus on beach bound tourists.
Daytona Beach, for example, is one of the most popular beach destinations in the entire nation. Thanks to the media coverage of college age vacationers during Spring Break, Daytona Beach blossomed from a small beach town to a hot vacation destination! It's not just beaches, though. Daytona Beach offers great shopping and night life, as well as golfing and fishing, the Daytona Raceway, and it's just about two hours from Disney World, SeaWorld, and Universal Studios!
If you're looking for a Bahamas-esque vacation without having to leave the United States, the Florida Keys may just be where you want to be. The Keys are as far south as you can get in Florida, and because they're little islands, they have a different feel than the rest of the state. You can feel isolated from the "mainland" in the Keys, and have a romantic getaway.
Of course, when many people think of Florida, the first thing that comes to mind is Orlando, and visiting Mickey Mouse. Orlando is located in central Florida, and in addition to Walt Disney World, tourists can visit SeaWorld, Universal Studios, and all the great water parks and other attractions the city has to offer.
Of course, one of the other important parts of vacation is where you're going to eat! And Florida offers great cuisine in addition to great beaches and shopping! Since Florida is geographically close to both Latin America and the Caribbean, the state offers a great variety in cuisine. From traditional Latin American food to seafood to Key Lime pie, you'll have lots of different things to sample and taste while you're escaping from your daily life, and it'll all make it even harder to want to go home and back to "reality!"
