Swim Anyone???
My wife Jennifer and I spent the week at Vacation Village in Weston FL. . We stayed in the Osprey building. This place exceeded our expectations!!! The room was probably the best place we have stayed anywhere!!! We had the A unit, and it was so relaxing and beautiful, and the Jacuzzi, THE JACUZZI!!! If the room wasn't enough, I have never experienced customer service like I have experienced it here. Words cannot explain the courtesy we received here!!! The staff was more than friendly, they were down right family like!!! Anything we needed, it was at this place. They had tons of activities planned everyday, free breakfasts a few days while we were there(not just a muffin and coffee, we're talking pancakes). The property was very well maintained, and they were overstaffed instead of the usual under-staffing you see at many hotels!!! If you are not sure about staying at a place that is 25 minutes from EVERYTHING, please, try Vacation Village, you will be pleasantly surprised. You are minutes from all the hustle and bustle and when you are done playing, head back to a quite setting and a beautiful place with friendly people. The neighborhood the Village is located in is first class all the way, along with this resort!!!

Quick Tips:

I would recommend going to the Everglades, Holiday Park. This is only about 8 minutes away, and is a definite must!!! The Saw Grass mills mall is 4 miles away also. Also, when you travel back and forth to the attractions, I suggest taking 84 West, instead of taking 595 West home, on 84 west, there is a canal that travels alongside you to the right, and if you travel this at the right time, you can see the alligators sunning themselves along the banks!

Best Way To Get Around:

You definitely need a car.
