Accommodation

Villa.

For the first week. This one was at Indian Point just south of Highway 192. For location this area is perfect. However, the villa turned out to be a horrendous nightmare see HORROR STORY

Week 2 was spent in a condo on the Isla Del Sol which is an island community just south of St Pete's Beach (about 5 Minutes). For me if one word could sum up this place its PERFECTION. Its positioned on a golf course and the condos are surprisingly roomy, its biggest advantage is it is very close to Fort DeSoto my own little piece of paradise. One word of caution though --- take lots of Mosquito repellent you WILL need it.

Holiday Comments

Week 1 was a right off, see HORROR STORY. Week 2 kind of made up for it although the pressures of the previous week really put a strain on it. In future I think we will probably spend all our time at St Pete's or Clearwater and just drive to the parks in Orlando when needed.
