When you think of Orlando, perhaps, you think of alligators, orange juice, food trucks, sunshine, and theme parks. But, ‘The Entertainment Capital of the World’ and 'The Number 1 Tourist Destination’ offers more than that. Bordered by the Gulf of Mexico and the Atlantic Ocean on each side, it has countless miles of white sand beaches, complimented with a moderate climate all year round. Visit the many amusement parks such as Universal Orlando Resort, Walt Disney World® Resort, and Magic Kingdom Park. Let’s not forget SeaWorld Orlando, Universal Studios Florida, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Other well-known attractions include Lake Eola Park, Orlando Science Center, and the SEA LIFE Orlando Aquarium. Are you planning a short week-long visit to Orlando and looking for a comfortable place to stay? You’ve come to the right place. Read on as we show you the top short-term rentals in Orlando, Florida.

Upcoming events:

  • Held at Wyndham Orlando, Spooky Empire is perfect for thrill seekers. Interact with your favorite horror movie stars, get a new tattoo, watch spooky movies, and much more! The event is typically held twice a year.
