Holidays 2008

Nothing has come up yet for our preferred locations on the West Coast next year, so it's possible that we may instead take the boys to Florida for the first time.

There's plenty of good accommodation there, including some of the Marriott options. There's Marriott's Grande Vista Resort (https://www.my-vacationclub.com/resort/home.do?resort=gv) and Horizons by Marriott (https://www.my-vacationclub.com/resort/home.do?resort=ho). They both offer typical Marriott quality 2 bedroom, sleeping 6 or 8 accommodation. This usually means a double bedroom and another with two double beds, with one of the rooms possibly being a "lock-off" - plus a lounge with convertible sofa and a kitchen.

There's also a few non-Marriott places available, some of them offering 3 bedroom accommodation, such as Fairfield Star Island Resort (http://www.starislandresortorlando.com/index.asp).

Don't know what's best - tried to phone Interval for advice, hoping they might be able to tell me what type of units were on offer and whether they were ground floor or not, but they can't tell you until you've booked!
