First: I highly recommend staying in this very clean, fully furnished, two story house. The two folks who manage this property are friendly and fantastic!!! They will accommodate the guests to the best of their ability, as they both have jobs outside of managing this house. This is a 5 bedroom house in a quiet Crystal Cove gated community with clubhouse, pool, etc in Kissimmee Florida. There are 17 steps up to the second floor. Great for exercising. The WIFI worked quite well. The second floor bedroom (no. 2) that I stayed in has a queen bed, private bath w/double vanity and tub/shower combo, TV, small closet and overlooks the front driveway. There are three other bedrooms on the second floor that share a hall bathroom. The fifth bedroom is downstairs and has a private bathroom with two vanities and a separate shower and bathtub. The garage, driveway, living room with TV, kitchen with dishwasher, dining areas, patio, laundry room and the guest half-bath downstairs are shared by everyone. There are plenty of dining tables and chairs for use by 12+ people. All of the guests were good about cleaning up after themselves. There are plenty of pots, pans, dishes, glasses and utensils as well as enough refrigerator, freezer and pantry space. Parking is for 4 vehicles. The driveway is 20 feet wide. We were able to park a small Toyota and an SUV into the very clean garage. Parking on the street, sidewalk or grass is NOT allowed. The house is only a few miles from Medieval Times, Celebration, Disney World, Sea World, Universal Studios, Walmart, and lots of restaurants and shopping. You can also see fireworks through the back windows of the house and the booming is barely heard. Con: Some guests weren't considerate of the nighttime sleeping hours.
Connie2016-11-17T00:00:00ZThe room was everything we needed! The bed was very comfortable. Perfect private bathroom. Nice and quiet experience.
Tyler2016-06-06T00:00:00ZThe trip house was wonderful! It was very clean and it was located in a quiet neighborhood that was perfect for relaxing. It even enabled me to reflect and complete some work. I really enjoyed the comfortable bed and the room I stayed in.
Michael2016-10-25T00:00:00ZFelt welcome and relaxed. Nice guy
Randolph2016-06-16T00:00:00ZThe room was spacious, bright and cheerful. The bed was firm and comfortable. The hostess was accommodating and answered all my questions and needs. It was very clean and I hope to stay here again on a return trip.
John and Deborah2017-03-03T00:00:00ZThis is a very nice house and is well-kept, with all that you need available, within reason. When compared to some of the hotels in the area that are similarly priced, this place is a steal. The only real drawback is parking since there are only four spaces and five rooms and the garage is small enough that two toyota corollas felt cramped inside. The result, if all rooms are booked with car drivers, is that you are constantly trying to shuttle cars in and out or figure out who's car is blocking your exit.
Aaron & Tina2016-07-31T00:00:00ZWe had a great stay at Trip House. Clean, comfortable and a private bathroom! Will stay here again next time!
Paul2016-07-27T00:00:00ZMy staying at the trip house was really good. I enjoyed the house and I would definitely book it again whenever I visit.

Nice place but it is about 45 minutes from Universal Studio especial during trafic hours .
Adrian2015-11-07T00:00:00ZI really enjoyed my stay. Glady's studio is amazingly cozy and elegant. I loved the kitchen, wifi, beds. Everything was exceptional. I am looking forward to go back to her place. My family and I loved her place. I recommend this listing.
Judy2016-07-22T00:00:00ZGladys is a great host. She is always available online if you need anything, at the same time that she leaves the guest comfortable in their own privacy. Like everyone said, she left some refreshments in the fridge when we arrived, and that was very sweet and thoughtful.
Bruna2016-11-01T00:00:00ZThis is the perfect place to stay in Orlando. The studio is great for a vacation for two! My boyfriend and I spent a lot of our time at the Disney parks that were conveniently 10 miles away. I hope to visit again soon! I Highly recommend this place for your Orlando trip!
Taylor2016-12-12T00:00:00ZMy stay with Gladys has been so wonderful. Yesterday I had a client cancel here, so I was able to just rest and enjoy relaxation in her sweet studio! Not only that, but the first day I had a long conference, and she came in and washed my dishes, made the bed and made me feel super welcome. I didn't have to do anything but relax when I got in from the long day! The beds are super cozy and their place has all of the amenities I needed! She even put breakfast food for me in the fridge :)
meghan 2016-01-23T00:00:00ZWhen we arrived after a very long and delayed trip Gladys met us with a smile on her face even though she was sick. She was very nice and thoughtful. She gave us a tour, stocked the fridge with breakfast items for us, as well as stocked the restroom with toiletry items. She made it a great and comfortable stay for us. We were there during Thanksgiving and even invited us over for a Thanksgiving feast and even offered if we didn't feel comfortable to bring us over plates of food to the studio apartment. Thank you Gladys for being so thoughtful and caring! We will definitely stay with Gladys again in the future!
Kristii2015-12-09T00:00:00ZExcelente apartamento. Cuidado con esmero y calor de hogar. Tiene todos los detalles necesarios, perfectamente equipado y limpio. La Sra Gladys es una excelente anfitriona siempre atenta y presta ayudar. Ampliamente recomendado!
Luis2017-01-12T00:00:00ZExcellent attention, the place was clean and organized, exactly as pictures and description, Gus and Gladys were very kind hosts, I recommend 100%, even they borrowed an electric car to my son to play on the backyard and He loved it. Thanks you very much. It was an excellent weekend at your place.

Dee is a very caring woman.
Will2017-02-16T00:00:00ZDee and Paul are very gracious hosts. They did their best to make me feel welcomed and at home. They invited me to share in their meals- Dee is a very talented and discerning cook. The room had adequate space and the bed was comfortable. The neighborhood is safe and quiet. I got a restful night of sleep every day. There is a dedicated parking space in the front of the house for the guest. Their pets are well behaved and do not call attention to themselves-they stay out of the guestroom. I had a great experience.
LUIS2016-10-23T00:00:00ZDee and her husband are very kind and amiable people. The neighborhood is safe, there is easy parking and Dee is very responsive with communications. The house is a bit small, but you have full access to the back, front and side yards. The room is small but clean and nicely furnished. Dee made me a delicious chicken dinner and provided breakfast cereal, coffee and oj. She also runs a taxi service, so she really knows her way around the area.
Jonathan2017-01-28T00:00:00ZIt was really a nice experience to stay at your place.
ashish2016-12-29T00:00:00ZDee and Paul were phenomenal hosts! They were great at making us feel comfortable and at home. Their home was welcoming and clean. The bedroom we stayed in was very cutely decorated with a modern feel. Dee even does a taxi service called Taxi by Dee in which she excels at. If anyone is considering staying in lake wales this is the place to stay! Such a great place and awesome people.
Lauren2016-11-07T00:00:00ZComfort was top notch! I felt right at home. Thank you Dee & Paul
Lori2016-11-14T00:00:00ZNice and cosy room. Everything was present. We choose this location for a visit of Universal Studios, but away from Orlando city. Dee made a delicious meal for us, the evening we arrived. We didn't plan on visiting places around Lake Wales, stayed only 2 nights, so we missed a visit to Bok Tower Gardens.
grietje2017-02-06T00:00:00ZGood place to stay Dee is a good host. Comfy bed!

Location: Good Budget: Value Cleanliness: Good enough Good for budget traveler and a place to stay if you're out most of the days doing things only to come home and sleep. This place has shared room with bunk beds and private rooms for longer stay or available. Lacking in kitchen basic necessities like napkins/forks/spoons and no access of kitchen for cooking unless longer term stays. There's fridge, microwave so that's good. Check in was easy because of lock code so host don't need to be there or greet you. Mostly communicative but sometimes unresponsive. No one comes daily to clean or change bed sheets so you're on your own even when you check in. It might not be necessary to clean daily but it would be nice for new arrivals. Overall, a good value and I would stay again. Not a deal breaker on some things but could be better.
Katie2017-03-02T00:00:00ZThe place is located in a quite neighborhood. It is clean, comfortable and most importantly the host respects your privacy. The living room have a fridge and a microwave for our convenience. I will definitely stay here in my next trip. Overall, I enjoyed my stay. The host was kind enough to let me do the check in after 12 am.
Jailene Marie2017-01-29T00:00:00ZMaria was such amazing host! She was very responsive and helped me a lot with good tips about neighborhood around. The place is awesome! I had a good time there! I totally recommend it for short and long-period trips!

This was the perfect rental. Very spacious and family friendly!!!
Rodneca2016-12-12T00:00:00ZNicholas was wonderful! He was so easy to get in contact with and was so nice. He made the whole trip so easy which I really appreciated. The home was exactly as described and perfect for our family trip! It was incredibly clean and ready for our arrival. We had so much fun at the pool when we weren't at Legoland and the house had wonderful space. Thank you so much Nicholas! We would definitely stay here again (assuming we could get a reservation because he keeps his schedule booked!)
Lexi2016-04-26T00:00:00ZGreat clean affordable vacation spot perfect for small to medium families and beach trips with the crew. Owner is great and home is close to food shopping and beaches. Would definitely stay again.
Jawara2017-01-26T00:00:00ZThis house was a fantastic place for our family of 5 to relax on our trip out to Florida. The amenities were exactly as described. The little swimming pool was the kids' favorite! We are definitely looking forward to coming back again!
Lori2016-09-05T00:00:00ZWe stays 5 days in Haines City and obviously our stay was focusing on parks and resorts. So we did not have the chance to spend much time in the house, but the description was pretty much in line with what we had. It is a very spacious property, with a fairly small pool, but sufficient to cool down after a warm and long day in the parks and to enjoy an evening bath specially thanks to the protection against the very aggressive Florida Mosquito ! It was missing a bit of "personality" to make it not looking too much like a pure rental house. The neighborhood was very quiet, although quite some noise from 7 am with workers around taking care of the gardens and outsides. In general our stay in this villa was good.
Julien2016-10-12T00:00:00ZThe house was just as described and Nicholas was very pleasant and responsive. We wish we could've stayed longer!
sarah2016-09-10T00:00:00ZWOW! This was a FANTASTIC experience in all cases. The house is even better than the photos! Well stocked with every thing needed. Pool was awesome, pool table was much fun, lots of space.....and we sat out back in the evening and marveled how quiet it was in this gated community. The total price was actually less expensive than the type of hotel I'm accustomed (URL HIDDEN) being able to cook our own meals...lots of space to entertain a couple of friends....location....extremely clean....all WONDERFUL. We can't wait to go again and stay longer.
Marty2016-10-20T00:00:00ZNicholas was responsive to our inquires and worked with us to make this visit a successful one. Excellent host. The home location was easy to get in and out of, convenient to both necessity-type shopping and entertainment, and in a safe/secure area for all. The accommodations were 100% as advertised. We had everything we needed (and more). It was clean and tidy, ...had plenty of common space... it was really fun playing pool together. :-) We would definitely rent from Nicholas again in the future.

My husband and I had a great time staying with Marta and her cousin Carlos. They were both very accommodating and gracious hosts who went out of their way to greet us and ask how we were. The home is lovely and clean, very well decorated too. Like a home away from home. Thank you so much for a lovely first Airbnb experience!
Amber-rose2015-12-20T00:00:00ZOur stay at Paula & Marta's house was delightful! Unfortunately paula or marta wasnt their but carlos and Daniel were great host, Very clean and very beautiful place to stay at and oh, and a VERY peaceful place as well, we even had to stay one more day and it was easily arranged, thanks again, you guys were great, will definitely recommend to friends
Hector2015-10-30T00:00:00ZMy best friend and I had a really great experience live at Marta's house. The house was as the same as Marta described, and Marta was really nice and friendly. She also introduced her neighbor to us for rides, and the price was good, too.

Albert2016-02-14T00:00:00ZI felt very welcome in Paula and Marta's home. Carlos greeted me and showed me around. Their home is only 20 minutes from Disney and the airport. It is also only 10 minutes from my daughter's home in Saint Cloud. I plan to make Paula and Marta's home my regular "home away from home" for all my trips to Saint Cloud. Thank you Paula, Marta, and Carlos! See ya soon. Mark

Freddie2016-06-30T00:00:00ZGreat host, very polite and friendly. She even gave a snack when I told her I had a 12 hour drive back home. The place was very clean and cozy. Thanks Lisa
Javier2016-10-16T00:00:00ZLisa was a great host. She offered and made us dinner on several nights. She had even bought us a Christmas gift! I would definitely recommend her.
Andy2015-12-28T00:00:00ZLisa was a great Host. The place was exactly the same way it was listed and very comfortable locality as well.. I was almost there for a month and I felt home.Lisa and her daughter helped me in every possible way. The entire house was very clean and comfy. They were up until late night the first day for me to check in. Since I don't have a car, she took me to shopping whenever I want to and also let me know about places to go around. And when it comes to food, she always cooked extra for me and offered me her dish every time and also teaches a lot of authentic Chinese cooking:).She is a very amiable host and I recommend staying at her place without doubt.
Abinayaa2016-06-03T00:00:00ZLisa is not in Orlando, her friend is good. She waited us late at night on our first day moved in and introduced the room carefully. Such a good host!

Location, comfort, and a great host! We couldn't have asked for more. Terre was wonderful. The place was great. Clean, comfortable, and really close to WDW and good restaurants and outlet shopping. We will definitely stay there again when we go to Orlando.
Denise2017-02-21T00:00:00ZI had great experience in this place, Terre is very helpful.. We stayed for 5 nights, my husband, my baby todler and I. Terre helped us a lot with a playpen for our baby sleep.. and nice snacks when we arrived. The location is great, very safe, pretty close of Disney parks, nice places to eat nearby after a tiring day at parks or outlets mall like: IHOP, Wendy's, Panera Bread, Five Guys, Carrabas, TGI Fridays... I recommend this place up to a couple and a baby, more than this can't not be comfortable. 5 stars!
Daniela2017-01-27T00:00:00ZWe spent two nights at the Zeigler's apartment. We picked the apartment for our trip to Disney world and could not have asked for a better experience. The apartment is very clean, plenty of linens, very generous supply of welcome snacks and water. It is a great location to check out the Disney parks. The hosts provided detailed information to make our arrival and check-in process a breeze. Highly recommended - great value.
Amarpreet2017-02-24T00:00:00ZThe suite was perfect and the owners were exceptionally attentive and hospitable. I would absolutely stay here again.
Jonathan2016-09-19T00:00:00Zmy hosts were SO good at communicating! Arrival was totally seamless with the code-lock vs. having to acquire a key and that was wonderful because I didn't know my exact arrival time. The suite was absolutely perfect. Comfy bed, lots of space, stocked with snacks and a case of bottled water which is so kind (even my favourites after they checked with me!) and big clean bathroom. I came down for runDisney Marathon weekend and the location was absolutely perfect. I used Uber to commute to Epcot each morning and it was perfect, about 15 minutes! I also used the pool and hot tub a few times to relax and stretch after my races and it was amazing and not busy at all, I had it to myself which was relaxing. For someone who is a very light sleeper, it may bother you that the location is very close to the highway, but I didn't have any issues with that at all.
Jamie2017-01-10T00:00:00ZThis is our first experience on Airbnb. My wife and I really enjoyed the stay at Zeigler's place. The room was cozy, comfortable and everything is organized. Plus, they supplied the room with our favorite snacks, ice cream and quick bites which we haven't seen this kind of hospitality in any of the hotels that we stayed in before. The location can't be better. Check in was super easy and well informed. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.
Ahmed2017-01-14T00:00:00ZThis was my first ever Airbnb experience and I am so glad it was here! The room was the perfect size for myself and my friend. Chris and Terre were so helpful in answering any questions I had. They made the entire process very smooth and even had a few snacks waiting at the room, which was amazing after a 10+ hour drive. The location is super close to Disney so it was a really short drive to the parks every morning. I would definitely stay at one of their places again and highly recommend it to anyone else! It's an amazing deal with some very sweet hosts.
Emilee2016-08-02T00:00:00ZExcellent hosts! We stayed for a week and the Zeiglers place was perfect for our needs. Thanks for the Florida oranges!!!!

Nice, comfortable stay at Jamie's home while visiting Orlando and the Disney Parks. Close to the parks, her home was close and easy to get to. Jamie and her husband were welcoming and friend, as were their two cats! Overall nice stay.
Maggie2017-02-27T00:00:00ZJamie and Paul took the extra steps to make certain that you will enjoy your visit starting with a good night's sleep on a super comfortable memory foam mattress. Little touches like a full length mirror and a hamper for your laundry are much appreciated. There was also a cork board with coupons to use at local restaurants. The bathroom was also tastefully remodeled and the shower had plenty of hot water and great water pressure. Plush towels and an assortment of soaps and shampoos felt spa-like. We especially enjoyed hanging out by the screened pool. It was the perfect spot to eat a meal or relax with a book. The location of this home is IDEAL for anyone visiting Disney. There is also a professionally landscaped walking path near their house.
Carrie2017-01-28T00:00:00ZThe hostness were really receptive, and provide everything that was described. They made the stay feel like I was home! The pets are really polite and enjoyable and the neighbours are quiet. Perfect House to visit Disney, Universal, sea world... I recommend and will return to continue my visit. Thanks!!! :)
JULIANNA2017-01-08T00:00:00ZJamie is a really genuine and helpful host who made me feel comfortable on my first airbnb experience. She and her husband are also just nice people. The bed is amazing and the bathroom was not only clean, it was stocked with quality toiletries and a selection of them to choose. There was even sunblock and contact fluid if you needed it. I enjoyed my stay here and will book again for sure!

Rhonda2016-11-11T00:00:00ZThere is only one word to discribe Nelie and Barry, " kindness". You wont find this kind of people around the corner. Their house is very near the parks, its very beautiful and clean as seen in the pictures. Their meals are awesome!! Nelie and Barry would do everything in their power to make you feel like home. I would always go back to their home.
Carolina2016-12-03T00:00:00ZThe host was very friendly and welcoming. The breakfast they made was good and it had a bit of everything. The scrabbled eggs were nice and fluffy. The location was extremely close to Disney. It was a short drive to any of the parks. It's also close proximity to the other Orlando parks.
Suruchi2016-06-27T00:00:00ZSimplemente ESPECTACULAR la atención de Nelie y Barrie. El cuarto muy limpio y cómodo. Tienes un frigobar con cervezas, refrescos, jugos, etc etc..... El vecindario muy tranquilo y seguro para descansar sin ningún ruido. Ellos te preparan el desayuno cada día muy rico y recién hecho. Ofrecen también servicio de recojerte en el aeropuerto, llevarte a los parques y a todos los lugares que gustes conocer (con costo extra súper accesible) si quieres pedir Uber o taxi es muy caro. De verdad solo puedo recomendar que si tienen lugar disponible aparten al momento porque si precio es muy bueno y la calidad del servicio ofrecido es aún mejor. Thanks Nelie and Barrie for everything, i must to come back as soon as posible. Good luck!!!!!!
Jorge Alberto2016-10-03T00:00:00ZNelie is a very helpful host! My girlfriend and I enjoyed two days stay at her cozy apartment. Delicious breakfast and very comfortable mattress is impressive. You can't ask more due to the very reasonable price at same time. She even picked us up at the Hollywood Studios with our luggages then we head to MCO airport directly which let us spent more time at Disneyland. Sweet~
Yongzheng2016-08-27T00:00:00ZWe got stuck in a nearby place, without knowing where to go. Nelie's husband came by and picked us up. They were really caring for us and friendly. They prepared delicious breakfast for us in all of our days stay there. One place to stay that I highly recommend. Great hospitality.
Jonathan2016-09-27T00:00:00ZNelie is such a good host! She cooked for me, droped me off / picked me up at Disneyworld and she does everything to make my stay as comfortable as it could be.
Laura2016-12-21T00:00:00ZMy stay at Nelie's was very pleasant and it was really sweet of her for making us very comfortable. The room and attached bath were really neat. Also she made us delicious breakfast. Overall I would say it was one of my best stays.

Une maison vraiment très agréable calme je recommande cette villa vraiment parfaite
Alban2016-11-08T00:00:00ZThis was a great first Airbnb experience! The host was overly-accommodating, responded to questions quickly, and provided everything I needed. The pool and house were very clean. The house was easy to find from the road. I would definitely stay here again!
Jennifer2016-08-24T00:00:00ZVery nice place to stay in a great location!
Adriana2016-12-11T00:00:00ZHelen was a lovely hostess! And we had a lovely time.
Stephanie2017-03-03T00:00:00ZEverything was above what I expected! Wonderful stay!!
Venessa2016-08-30T00:00:00ZThe place was amazing and our host went above and beyond all of our expectations. I am definitely going to recommend this beautiful house and pool to my good friends and family. Thank you so very much.
Michael2016-10-03T00:00:00ZWe LOVE staying here. Beautiful pool, comfortable beds, and very clean. I highly recommend this place. We were not disappointed. We will be back!

You will be sleeping on an air mattress. We wish we would have known that.
Karen2017-03-05T00:00:00ZMark is an awesome host. Very accommodating to different types of people. I'm an introvert and he gave me exactly what i needed. House is beautiful
Tamika2017-02-25T00:00:00ZThanks for having us, Mark! The stay was very good, and me and Hanna enjoyed our two days at your place! Mark is a very good guy that takes care of his guests, and was very helpful. The pool is awesome too!
Jonas2017-02-26T00:00:00ZMark's place is about 30 minutes away from the City centre and from USS or Disney. However, it is a very quiet and safe environment! Mark also responded very quickly and got me settled in even late at night. He is really great on his service, making sure i knew what he has to offer and he is available anytime. Place is really spacious, clean and quiet! It's currently the best Airbnb i have ever stayed where i can sleep in peace and get to wherever i want! For the value set, Mark offers much more value to it! Will certainly stay here again when i come back and Mark is still around!
Ronald2016-12-25T00:00:00ZIs amazing place and Mark is a great person.
Kevin2017-01-21T00:00:00ZGreat quick stay!
Harmoni2017-03-05T00:00:00ZPlace was very nice and clean ! Had fun ! Pool was nice and was a romantic place to gather at night ! Me and my girlfriend enjoyed this place very much !
Elijah2017-01-13T00:00:00ZThis place was amazing and a steal for the price. It is very welcoming and cleaned to resort standards. When I arrived Mark had already made plenty of space for me in the fridge and was nice enough to offer breakfast. He also makes a pretty mean gazpacho! The patio area was very relaxing with the running waterfall during the day and great lights at night. Being a single female I really loved how peaceful and safe the neighborhood was as well. There's a grocery store and walmart about 10mins away, which is about a $5 uber. In all Mark was the best host I've had so far and I'll definitely be staying here again!

Shiru2016-12-27T00:00:00ZLovely home, very comfortable. I loved everything about it. The only problem we ran into was trying to find the house, the gps wouldn't take us straight to it. But other than that I would strongly recommend this house!!
Karla2017-03-06T00:00:00ZUna casa muy bonita, grande...piscina (URL HIDDEN) recomiendo
Juan2017-02-13T00:00:00ZEverything was great and flawless. If you are in this area I would suggest you consider staying at Glasstone Vacations.
Toddrick 2016-11-14T00:00:00ZA casa fica muito bem localizado (pretíssimo dos parques da Disney, de supermercado, lojas, farmacia, outlets, etc), em um condomínio muito bom, limpo, seguro. A casa é linda, bem decorada, ampla, aconchegante, com toalhas e lençóis de ótima qualidade, camas muito boas, cozinha é muito bem equipada e, mais do que tudo, a administração da casa é feita por uma equipe educada e prestativa. Tudo que precisamos foi atendido prontamente! Com certeza indico esta unidade, e pretendo voltar em breve!
Marina2017-02-27T00:00:00ZGlasstone Vacations was always quick to answer any question I had! The neighborhood was extremely nice, and the townhouse was brand new. I had such a phenomenal experience with this listing!

House was just as shown in pictures! It was clean, cool and comfortable with all necessary items. Plenty of towels, bedding and kitchen items needed for cooking! Pool was a great temperature and spa (slightly noisy pump) was very nice! Communication and response time was great! Upon arrival spa was not working properly, however we were notified of the issue prior to arrival on Sunday evening and told that it would be fixed Monday morning. By the time we got to the house Monday evening everything was working fine as promised!! Had a great experience at this location and would highly recommend for a family who wants a little relaxing down time away from all the busy(yet fun) Disney experience!! Nice, quiet neighborhood! Approximately 20min to Disney gates! Had a great vacation!! Thanks for helping make it a fun family experience!
Lana2016-07-10T00:00:00ZMy family and I stayed here for a vacation to celebrate my nephews second birthday! It was an amazing stay, could not have asked for a better house! Everything was available that we needed and the hosts made it very easy to enjoy their home. Would absolutely recommend. Very close location to everything we wanted to do (Disney, universal, NASA) and much more enjoyable than a hotel!
Rachel2017-01-31T00:00:00ZCraig and Lynsey's place proved to be the perfect place to stay for our father son trip this week. My son is a senior in high school and we decided to have some fun over this long Presidents Day weekend off. Golf, Disney, Magic basketball, and Kennedy Space center were all part of the plan. Craig and Lynsey's house was ideal. They are very responsive. The house is in a great location, and it's clean and the neighborhood is quiet. Publix, CVS, breakfast spots, and restaurants a plenty are all within 5-10 miles. I highly recommend Craig and Lynsey's house and them as hosts.
Frank2017-02-20T00:00:00ZCrayg was very nice and helpful with us. The house is perfect. Calm neighborhood, nice place. All we needed was in the house. I felt like in my own house. We didn't have any problem. The pool was heated everyday and it made the difference. Crayg and his house deserves 5 stars!!!!
Rodolfo2016-11-27T00:00:00ZWe stayed at the house at the end of Feb and can't say enough nice things about this property! The house was spotlessly clean, and equipped with everything we could need. From hairdryers to washer and dryer. My only regret is that we didn't book for longer. The location is great and was only 15-20 mins to all the Disney parks. The 192 is close by which has all the restaurants you could want and there is a grocery store etc within a 5 min drive. The pool was perfect and heated just right with a few pool toys included. The beds were sooooo comfy and the kitchen fully equipped with everything we needed. The neighborhood was very quiet and safe, I sound like I'm gushing but it truly was a home away from home and I hope we can go back soon. Would recommend this property to anyone!
Louisa2017-02-28T00:00:00ZRealmente tuvimos una gran estadía. Todo bajo control. Muy linda casa.
Nicolas2016-09-15T00:00:00ZWe enjoyed out stay at the house very much; when we arrived we had a welcome folder with easy to follow instructions. The towels were folded in a special way which gave us the feeling of being very welcome.
Gerald2016-07-21T00:00:00ZThe hosts went out of their way to answer all our questions quickly and were more than helpful in putting us at ease with renting their house. I would gladly rent again from them and would rank them among the best hosts. The house was about 10 minutes from Disney parks, close to restaurants, and about 60 minutes from an excellent beach (Clearwater) depending on traffic. The photos of the house are accurate, and the dual master suites with bathrooms were nice. When we arrived, the house was staged to show, clean, and had all the items any hotel would have. Laundry on the premises was a God send and worked well. The whole house had cable TV, and was protected with alarm system. The kitchen was well stocked with cooking / baking equipment for you to prepare your own meals if you desire. There was loads of hot water, which with 6 ppl showering was a blessing. Check-in and Check-out was extremely painless especially with a late arrival. (1am) If I had to stretch to find one negative, it would be the narrow streets of the neighborhood. It led to some challenges with cars on both sides with oncoming traffic, but that's a reach for what was an awesome Spring Break holiday. Thanks Craig & Lynsey!

Contains Sulphites.
The design and selection of our House range is quite literally, an ongoing project. Tastings are numerous and rigorous; our aim is to find wines that we believe are both representative of their origins and that have an extra quality over and above our competitors' equivalents. Wines that do not continue to produce the quality we expect we de-list. Our current house list represents a selection of old favourites, 61 Reserve Claret, Pomerol, Sarcey and 250th Cuvee Champagnes and Directors Tawny. Alongside these is our newest label, our House Red Burgundy which has been praised time and again by clients and press alike. It is a real filip to our range and now comes from one of the great names in the Côte-de-Nuits. With grapes from in-and-around the villages of Vosne and Nuits it is utterly pure and refined red burgundy at a price that simply cannot be beaten.
Champagne is the world's original and most famous region for the production of sparkling wine. A range of styles are produced from the Non-Vintage, through Rose, Vintage and more recently a host of prestige, Vintage luxury cuvees. The three permitted grape varieties are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier.
IB stands for In Bond. Wines that are stored In Bond have not had UK Duty and VAT paid on them.
Most of our wines are available for purchase under bond, as fine wines often need to be laid down in order to allow them to mature. Many clients choose therefore to store them in our bonded warehouse and pay the tax as and when they wish to get the wines delivered. Please note that Wines purchased In Bond can be exported to non-EU countries without the need for Duty and VAT to be paid.
DP stands for duty paid. If you wish to get wines delivered for drinking, the duty and VAT will need to be paid as it leaves its bonded state in the warehouse. The wine is then said to be duty paid.
All taxes must be paid in order for us to be authorised to ship or deliver wine (unless the wine is bonded and being moved to another bonded warehouse or being shipped directly outside of the EU.)
EP stands for En Primeur. These wines are currently held with the Estate and Domaine's we work with and will be shipped in due course.

Aeneid II, Virgil lines 298-308 'Aeneas on the Roof' Notes
Aeneid II, Virgil lines 98-308 'Aeneas on the Roof' detailed revision notes and explanations.
Hope it helps!
- Created by: furuba fan
- Created on: 15-06-12 20:25
First 504 words of the document:
Aeneid 2 [298-308] `Aeneas on the roof'
298: misceri means to be mixed up, and is often used by Virgil to describe confusion. Note
the word order with diverso and luctu separated at the beginning and end of the line
emphasising the confusion on all sides. luctus (grief) tends to be used by Virgil in a battle
context. Note the alliteration of `m' in miscentur moenia - emphasising the grief?
299: et magis atque magis emphasises the grief and confusion. Suspense mounts with the
action delayed by the description of the seclusion of Anchises' house in 299-300
301: begins powerfully with the verb as the first word, and its subject following (reversal of
the usual Latin word order), and this effect is repeated with ingruit horror at the end of the
line. Note that horror has to do with bristling (as at something fearful). The approach of the
enemy is portrayed by the sound growing clearer, and the fear of the weapons.
302: begins with the verb for emphasis `I was awakened' and then in 303 there is lots of
assonance of `a', alliteration of `s' and also two elisions: ascensu super(o) atqu(e) arrectis
auribus asto . This reflects the excitement and tension of the situation. Note the stress on the
height also: Aeneas climbs (supero) to the fastigium (gable) of the top (summi) of the roof
(tecti) in ascent (ascensu). Note too the excitement also emphasised by the sustained historic
304: as we anticipate what Aeneas will hear, having pricked up his ears (interesting too that
Virgil focuses on his ears we might have expected the focus to be on what he could see)
Virgil launches into a simile, introduced by veluti (just as). The main point of comparison does
not come until the end. Virgil begins with `as when fire descends on the crops' and there is a
secondary point of comparison here in that fire is descending on Troy. Then Virgil introduces
a second similarity like a flood of a river in spate. Again Troy will be destroyed like this and
flattened note the repetition of sternit in 306, and then trahit (drags) in 307 emphasising
the devastation of the flood and the wholesale destruction. The verb stupet is brought to the
start of its clause for emphasis he is stunned we have to wait right to the end of 308 to
find out who. The so far unidentified stunned man is then inscius unaware, bewildered, and
almost helpless as he hears the sound (accipiens sonitum) just like Aeneas is hearing the
sound. And this man is sitting on top of a rock, just as Aeneas is on top of the house. Finally he
is identified pastor he is a shepherd. All that for which he cared is destroyed, just like
Aeneas. Some have also seen a further parallel with Aeneas as a carer for his people.

Edinburgh, July 1: Cricket will be part of the 2024 Olympics if Rome wins the bid to host the mega event, Italian cricket board chief Simone Gambino has said.
Gambino's comments coincided with the ongoing ICC Annual Conference here.
"If Rome hosts the Olympics, cricket will be included. We have had a firm commitment from the organising committee," Gambino, president of the Federazione Cricket Italiana (FCI), was quoted as saying by ESPNcricinfo.
Rome is bidding to host the 2024 Summer Games alongside Paris, Los Angeles and Budapest. The host city will have the opportunity to add five sports to the Olympics provided they fall under the regulations.
If Rome does end up hosting the Games, the most likely location for cricket would be Bologna, where World Cricket League Division Four matches were held in 2010.
Amongst other issues discussed at the at the ICC Conference, Saudi Arabia was inducted as the 39th Associate
member while the world body ratified the suspensions of USA Cricket Association (USACA) and the Cricket Association of Nepal (CAN).
It was also decided that an ICC delegation will visit the suspended nations in the near future.
"Both Nepal and the US are important Members of the ICC as they have tremendous talent and potential," ICC chairman Shashank Manohar said.
"The ICC, as part of its game and market development strategy, will continue to provide the countries with as much support as possible so that they can put in place good governance and cricket structures," he added.

Dragon Age II was mysteriously missing from the Steam store after the release of Legacy, a content oriented DLC. Perhaps it was another ploy by EA, as they continue to build out and market their own digital distribution service, Origin. Today, EA officially commented that Dragon Age II was removed from Steam, because of their strict policies regarding downloadable content. Speaking with IGN, EA's SVP of global e-commerce, David DeMartini, told IGN:
"At EA, we offer our games and content to all major download services including GameStop, Amazon, Direct2Drive and Steam.
"Unfortunately, Steam has adopted a set of restrictive terms of service which limit how developers interact with customers to sell downloadable content. No other download service has adopted this practice. Consequently some of our games have been removed by Steam."
It's no secret something is up behind the scenes as Crysis 2 was pulled over similar issues and EA left steam off the list of digital retailers that would support Battlefield 3. EA is also making some of their titles digitally exclusive to Origin, such as thier popular Star Wars MMO, Star Wars: The Old Republic.
What do you guys think? Is Steam trying to monopolize the market, or is EA simply trying to make their service more of a commodity?

Network Weaving in West Africa
Next week I'll be flying to Ghana to work on a United Nations project. They will be bringing together non-profit and government leaders from 15 West African countries to learn how to weave network and work together.

Very interesting...
Can you make contact with Hans Determeyer at G-Rap, Accra. (email@example.com ) I have been working with him on mapping networks of NGOs that his project is funding, and those they are working with. You can find some bits and pieces of work yet to be completed at
and a general introduction to network models of development projects at
Please also let me know in detail what you manage to do, if you dont mind. I will be back in Accra in July. - 4/25/2006 7:37 AM

As of this week, to the general public, I'm known for one thing: a biscuit grievance. There are better things to be known for. And there are certainly worse. But more interesting than the actual content of the biscuit story, I think, is the story behind the story – the story of how a social media post intended to be seen by a few friends can quickly erupt into something much, much bigger.
It was while doing work experience at the South Wales Argus that I met and connected with a woman who now works as a journalist for the Metro. It was this woman who gave the biscuit story legs. I was just the face of it.
Six days after I posted the biscuit picture to Instagram and Facebook – where, incidentally, it gathered only handful of "likes" and comments – this figure from the past contacted me, via Facebook. She'd seen the post and asked whether I'd mind if she used the picture for a story. I agreed. She then interviewed me on Facebook messenger, published the story, and the rest is soon-to-be-forgotten history.
What I didn't expect was for the story to spread so far, so quickly. The trouble was that I'd dramatised the answers I'd given my interviewer for comedic effect. I think that the spirit and tone of these responses was captured quite nicely in the original Metro post, with one person commenting that it resembled an article by spoof the news outlet the Daily Mash.
However, once the story started being republished by more and more media outlets, I quickly realised that, more often than not, I was being characterised not as the light-hearted trickster I'd sought to be, but as a petty, easily-offended consumer, who'd made it his mission to get justice for a perceived outrage.
I can see why. Such a character is intrinsically humorous. Much more humorous than a social media smart-aleck. And it was clear that this was the character the media wanted to portray. Of those organisations which did ask for a direct quote before publishing their version of the story – of which I'm glad to say the Independent was one – many opted to republish the original quotes I'd given to the Metro in a new context rather than the more recent and more underwhelming ones I'd given them directly.
The MailOnline even edited out a quote they originally published which read, "I thought that [the biscuit] was just about interesting enough to take a photo of and post to my Instagram feed which is quite sparsely populated and has very few followers", with the more dramatic: "'I was on my own when it happened. I did tell people later but they didn't really think it was that interesting – I was surprised at that to be honest."
Now I'm not claiming to be a victim. After all, this was just a silly biscuit story. And I did say all of those things (even if it is surreal to see the contents of a Facebook messenger conversation being quoted by a fair number of national media outlets).
But what I will say is that I believe I have now had an insider's view of how, in the black and white world of social media and 24/7 news, where all participating media distributors are constantly on the lookout for the next trending story, there is little room for nuance, and often emotions are portrayed only as extremes.
For me, luckily, no real damage has been done – thankfully Peter Marshall is a common enough name that no biscuit-related posts are displayed when used as a Google search term, and reading some of the nastier the comments from "trolls" went down well at the pub.
However, when it comes to some of the more serious trending stories, especially those which have the potential to cause a greater level of human damage and distress, I'll certainly be browsing Twitter with a more sceptical eye in future.

I often have a busy day of phone calling, trying to call or follow up a 'hot list' of many contacts on many issues. It can generally take 2 or 3 calls to get through, or a P A may give me a time to try again a bit later. As I keep trying the calls I need to be able to go quickly from contact to contact, or if they return my call, to bring them up immediately. Currently I tend to work from the calendar screen, but that assumes I have scheduled all the calls, then I have to go back to the Calendar, right click on the activity/go to contact to bring them up..
I would to be able to keep all these "active today" contacts open and available all day, by one click.
This would be in the Contact screen.
These would not be contacts that could be brought up in 1 lookup.
They would not be any particular Group (but the option to create a group from them or add them to a group would be good).
Creating a "temporary group" for today's contacts would not work as it is still a lot of rigmarole.
It could appear as tabs with the contact name along one side of the contact screen.
It could appear as a big button called "Todays Calls" on the left hand bar. Then by right clicking on the contact one could "Add Contact to Todays Calls/List". Clicking on the button would bring up the list of "active contacts".
Maybe all the contacts accessed today could automatically be added to a "Todays Calls" list as I go.
I've tried using the Back button just to get back to the last contact but that too is frustrating, I don't seem to get back to where I thought expected to!
I'm not sure I am expressing this very well, does anyone else 'get it'?

Our dear friend and neighbor
has a new dog. His name is Buddy.
Jen and I share a couple of heart wrenching things in common, one of which is having to put down a furry family member and explain it to our kids. We decided in our family that as much as our hearts ache for another dog, there is just no way we're willing to head out cruising with a dog again. Been there, done that. And while we don't have the proverbial t-shirt, we do have lots of sweet photos of our dearly departed salty mutt Schooner the wonder dog.
(Schooner "on watch")
(Schooner at Warderick Wells, Bahamas with our old boat Neshamah in the background)
("family portrait" circa 2002, Exumas)
It was a blast at the time. But it was hard work. And it was before kids, and before a few more grains of common sense. We were in our 20's, what the hell did we know? A little wiser now and with the casting off date on the next year's calendar, we've held off on our many, many urges to get another dog. But thankfully SuperJen is holding down the land fort at World Headquarters (as we call her home) and snagged the opportunity to rescue this sweet, sweet piece of pup. Her sweet, sweet little daughter Alex is on could nine.
(can you dig it?)
And we're secretly doing the happy dance over here too. Now we get to love all over Buddy whenever we want. So if you see his little wet nose in a photo here and there you'll know what we have not broken down and become dog owners again. But we're sure glad to be dog neighbors again :)

root children rain check
In years past, to celebrate the first day of spring, I have surprised Zach by waking up early and hiding small goodies around the marina for him to find from the root children who are busy preparing the earth for the coming season.
This morning we had a thunderstorm. And I got about 2 hours of sleep thanks to a little girly who thinks it's fun to practice her Irish step dancing in the middle of the night while refusing to nurse (it's like she KNOWS it will put her to sleep, little stinker). And half of the little odds and ends I had tucked away for him I just couldn't remember where I'd put them especially with all of that stuff piled around the boat from painting. So we took a rain check on our root children hunt. And he was just fine and dandy with that, especially with a mouth full of equinox cookies (half black half white for the 12 hours of day and night. i'd give you the recipe but alas whole foods didn't print one on the package ;)
So I gave him the handful of surprises I did manage to unearth from the depths of my closet (flowering tea, an exploding frog bath bomb from
this etsy shop
, a beautiful egg from
, and some
magic beans
) and that was plenty. The sun came out, daddy played hookie from work, we spent the day on the beach and chatting with neighbors, and that was the best way to celebrate the vernal equinox. Since it's a day all about balance anyhow, this was the most balanced I've felt in a long time. Family time, no place to be, no schedules to keep, toes in the sand, friends all around. It was the perfect way to celebrate coming out of winter hibernation. And those root children can try again next year.

WIP: Zach's Room
We're big fans of the family bed aboard our little boat. But unfortunately this family has outgrown the bed and there is no way for the bed to grow too. We had some success transitioning Zach into his own room while I was pregnant, but when Naia came home it all changed. Zach's room was abandoned for the winter. The fellas made a man-cave out of the guest cabin and the little lady and I nested in the master cabin. Spring is in the air now and we're trying to make a change. I really, truly wish we could all be in one cabin, but it's not physically possible. So here's the new plan. We're tricking out Z's cabin with the hopes that he'll gleefully spend his nights there and then Daddy and I will nest with Naia in the master and the guest cabin will once again be open for busines as the summer friends start flocking in.
Step one was unloading. Every single thing had to come out of the room. My boy has a lot of things. A lot of little odds and ends and bits and pieces. To the untrained eye they may seem like rubbish, but he knows they are treasures. And of course clothes and stuffed animals and blankets. It's all loaded up to the ceiling here in the book nook.
And the mattress is there in the bath tub. Look for the green thing way back there. Now the room looks like this.
Zach has been telling us with great drama and vigor that he can NOT tolerate a plain white room. How very dull mother. And we have been trying to convince him with equal passion that painting the walls purple and green will make his room look like a dark eggplant cavern. Light is the key my boy. So we have some tricks up our sleeves to honor his color quest while whitewashing the walls too.
It may be a week or so before we have this all together, but if we can make our vision actually come to life it should be pretty darn cool. Even for a boat.
To be continued...

coping through play
There are so many ways to frame what we did this afternoon. We killed some time between activities. We set up a spiffy homeschool science experiment. We got soaking wet and laughed a lot. We made a big mess. To the folks passing by on the dock asking what we were up to, the short answer was, "We're making a tsunami."
And we were. We happen to have Naia's "bathtub" out in the cockpit through a rainstorm. So voila, we had an ocean. After lots of NPR'ing and clip viewing on the computer and science talking through the past several days I wanted to assure Zach that tsunamis were harmless to boats out sailing in the middle of the ocean (kind of an important little piece of info if you're a kid living on a boat). If you're in harbor and a warning is sent out, the safest place to be is out to sea.
Our little boat bobbed happily on the small waves we created by flopping an underwater tectonic plate (a plastic "Hundred Board").
Then it was time to create Japan. Ok, this WAS killing time as it kept Zach busy going back and forth to the marina garden collecting rocks and sand and such to create our little land mass thus giving me a period of quiet to get Naia to nap. Add some plastic citizens and some homemade playdough houses and voila!
Ok, so the people are like 30 times larger than the houses and we all know that Japan is not populated by hut dwelling elephants, giant seals, and dashing Muskateers but you get the idea. If we had some spiffy scientifically accurate way of making our tsunami I would give you all the details in a tutorial, but in truth, we were just creating a big wet mess.
We tried smashing tectonic plates together (cutting boards, hundred board, stones, wood blocks). We tried popping a balloon underwater. We stopped short of dragging cinderbocks from the parking lot to the cockpit of the boat. We made some big waves. He saw them hit the land mass and topple on to shore. The houses and our fine citizens of Japan went splash. Japan even shifted a couple of inches.
Scientifically, we needed a longer tub of water. Check this out for a fantastic visual.
But in the end Zach just throttled a bottle of wool wash soap into our ocean like a meteor and took everything out.
Then he happily drove in a rescue truck, plucked the survivors from the frigid water with a net, and set up a triage. "I have to help them," he said matter of factly. "I want to be the rescuer now. I can search and rescue and save all these people."
I bit my lip, put away my camera, and helped him. It reminded me so much of 3 years ago when his best little buddy was in a
traumatic boating incident
. And then a few months later he was still working it out in his head and his heart. And beautifully through the magic of imagination and the alchemy of play
he made it right again
How wise these little people are in knowing how to heal, how to process, how to control the uncontrollable. We grown ups read books and filter media and sugar coat truths, but in the end I'm the one still reeling from this remote tragedy and he's already saved the world. It wasn't science or water play or a time suck, it was healing. Wet, wonderful, pure, joyful healing.
And then he asked how we can recreate a nuclear reactor meltdown. But we won't go there.

little things
Our planet is going through some big changes. And people a world away are scared and hurting. It makes me more appreciative than ever of our little peaceful corner on earth and the little things I can safely savor each day.
Like welcoming Naia to the table
(look at me sitting up in all of the action!)
And chocolate faces...
And spring flowers...
And silly costumes...
And a sleeping healthy baby...
Hug your loved ones. Be good to the Earth. Be good to each other.

GIVEAWAY - Bee Natural Honeypot
They're back! Creighton of
Bee Natural
was nice enough to offer up another honeypot giveaway! But I first want to tell you a little more about Creighton. He was cool enough to swing by the boat when he was in the area not long ago. We love having visitors, but visitors who bring old dead things for little boys to check out get extra bonus points.
Before becoming "the honeypot guy" Creighton worked with the Smithsonian doing marine mammals studies. He's still very involved in that field and likes nothing more than categorizing whale skulls.
Another cool thing about Bee Natural is that they are truly a family run business. His son helps collect the flowers that go into the honeypots and helps dad break up bulk beeswax to melt down. His wife presses flowers and keeps things humming along smoothly when Creighton is out swimming with the dolphins. Each honeypot is a handmade labor of love and a true family effort.
Finally, Creighton is just an all around nice guy and very generous. He carved this special honeypot just for our family which is in a permanent place of honor on the boat. One of the coolest things about carved ones is that they are shadow casters too.
Plus he's offering another generous giveaway.
Leave a comment here for a chance at winning a large carved sky honeypot of your own like this one. Become a fan of
Bee Natural on facebook
for another entry.
Plus if you order any size honeypot from
Bee Natural
between now and the first day of spring (March 21, 2011) and enter in the code ZACH ABOARD in the comments section when you check out, Creighton will send you a FREE Mini Azelea Honeypot with your order.
Thank you
& Creighton for helping us welcome spring!
p.s. I am using "intense debate" now for comments, which is just a widgit that allows me to answer comments/ questions directly. It's new to me and I am still working out the bugs (in other words I have no idea what I am doing.) If you want to comment here or anywhere, just click on the title of the post for the day and that will open up the comments below. The rest should be fairly intuitive. Thanks for bearing with me.

big day
Big excitement -- getting to spend an afternoon with his Tio (that's uncle to you gringos, he's my big brother).
(Tio jetted into town between meetings. Zach hasn't seen him in about a year and a half. You never saw a boy run so fast or jump so high into somebody's arms!)
(Tio taking a phone pis to send to Cousin Katie back home in Chicago. Zach is just a LITTLE excited, can you tell?)
(Boy bonding time... throwing stones into the water.)
Big dreams coming true -- Zach has wanted to take a fencing class since he was 4. Now he's finally old enough (well almost, we're fudging it a little). He was so serious about it, trying so hard. I wanted to snap a hundred photos, but I didn't want him to feel weird, so I controlled the shutter finger and kept my distance.
And Tio got a chance to get to know Naia...
(So little and SO big. Have I mentioned that my brother is 6'5" and I am 5'2". Yeah, so not fair.)
Big party time -- well big if you're a 6 year old. Some funny masks, some Zydeco music, and some ice cream. Laissez les bon temps rouler!
Now this mama needs some sleep. But really, what are the chances of that?

Get to know Allen Grubesic
Is art necessary?
"Inspiration is everywhere. There are messages in absolutely everything."
What's your work about?
I enjoy looking at everyday found objects; I have always enjoyed "object d'art" and am an avid collector. I am particularly interested in how we absorb and interpret messages that we are confronted with on a daily basis. I find double-meanings amusing, but moreover, I love how a message is mutable according to our personal experience and interests or the media stories of the day.
What inspires you?
"Inspiration is everywhere. There are messages in absolutely everything."
Why have you chosen to live and work in Stockholm?
I live and work in Stockholm and Istanbul. I'm Swedish by nationality so placid Stockholm will always be my home. Istanbul is a crazy, chaotic megalopolis. I believe the polarity between chaos and peace is what feeds my creativity.
A bit about Allen
Allen Grubesic was born 1974 in Uppsala/Sweden and graduated from the Royal Institute of Art in Stockholm (2003). His artistic practice combines media like painting, photography, video, sculpture, text and music into a wide-ranging output. Grubesic weaves together well-known concepts into works that serve as, often humorous, comments on contemporary society and he has a great fascination for language and the written word.
