Ho-Ho-Holidays: A Great Time to Visit Regal Palms Resort!

Just realized that our last blog post was all the way back in September. Whew--guess we blinked and fall flew by!

Now it's December...time to think about the holidays, where you'll spend them, and with whom.

Our four-bedroom, three-bathroom townhouse in Regal Palms Resort and Spa usually books up for the holidays months in advance. But this year, you're lucky: It's still available for you and your loved ones.

And this year, the resort is hosting a variety of holiday happenings:

• Breakfast with Santa. On December 22 and 23, Santa will be taking a quick break from the hustle and bustle to have breakfast with Regal Palms guests of all ages! 

• Christmas Dinner in the Bamboo Tiki Bar & Grill. On Christmas Day, the Regal Palms restaurant will be offering a traditional Christmas dinner--along with other tasty options at the cold and hot buffets, carving station, and pasta station. (Having spent the last two Thanksgivings at Regal Palms, we highly recommend the restaurant's holiday buffet. It's convenient, delicious, affordably priced, and--best of all--you don't have to shop, cook, OR clean!)

• New Year's Eve Bash. Join live band "Punch 'n' Judy" as they perform on the outdoor stage at the clubhouse/pool complex and DJ Dave as he hosts a dance party inside the clubhouse. Enjoy plenty of food and drinks--including a Champagne toast at midnight--and save $10 off the adult and child (ages 6 to 10) prices if you book online!

Question: Which Central Florida attractions are a short drive from Regal Palms?

Answer: Just about all of them!

One of the things we love most about Regal Palms Resort is its proximity not only to Walt Disney World, but also to a host of other Central Florida attractions.

If you're planning a trip to Orlando, consider booking our townhouse in Regal Palms Resort. It offers the spaciousness of four bedrooms and three full bathrooms, as well as the convenience of a washer, dryer, and fully equipped kitchen.

Thanks to the resort's location off US-27 between US-192 and I-4, it also means you'll be just:

• 20 minutes from Walt Disney World
• 30 minutes from Sea World
• 35 minutes from LEGOLAND Florida (opening soon!)
• 35 minutes from Universal Studios Orlando
• 60 minutes from Busch Gardens in Tampa
• 90 minutes from the Kennedy Space Center
• 100 minutes from Clearwater Beach on the West Coast or 100 minutes to Daytona Beach on the East Coast

In short, Regal Palms Resort gives you ultimate access to everything Orlando and Central Florida have to offer. To check rates and availability, visit our website or call Susan toll-free at 1-888-353-6600.

Columbia Restaurant in Celebration

As promised, during our most recent visit to Regal Palms Resort, we once again visited Celebration, Florida. This time, we enjoyed dinner on the patio at Columbia Restaurant, which bills itself as Florida's oldest.

We enjoyed the "downtown" location, friendly service, and picturesque views. More important, we loved the food--particularly "The Original 1905 Salad." If you get to Columbia in Celebration (or one of the family-owned restaurant's six other locations), be sure to enjoy this delightful combination of Iceberg lettuce, julienne of baked ham, Swiss cheese, tomato, olives, grated Romano cheese, and Columbia's delicious garlic dressing. While I thoroughly enjoyed my entree (Mariscos Diablos), next time I'm going to make a meal out of the 1905 and the fresh-baked Cuban bread.

Remember, Celebration is a short drive from Regal Palms Resort. If you're interested in staying in our four-bedroom, three-bathroom townhouse, my husband and I invite you to check rates and availability at our website. Or, give me a call at 1-888-353-6600!

Celebration, Florida: What a beautiful town...

During one of our recent visits to Regal Palms Resort, we took a short drive to Celebration, Florida. As you may know, Celebration was originally planned and designed by Disney. So, you can imagine how beautiful and "thought out" the town center and residential areas are!

In the town center--which is about a 15-minute drive from Regal Palms Resort--we discovered a host of restaurants, unique boutiques, and an idyllic lake surrounded by a walking trail.

We also found a Starbucks--so we grabbed an after-dinner beverage and enjoyed a leisurely stroll through town.

The next time we're in Florida, we're planning to head back to Celebration to enjoy some picture-perfect outdoor dining! We'll let you know which restaurant we pick (and what we think). In the meantime, you may want to spend some time in Celebration, too. You can learn more about the town--and upcoming special events--at the Celebration website.

As always, if you're interested in booking a stay at our four-bedroom, three-bathroom Regal Palms Resort townhouse, check out our website and then call Susan at 1-888-353-6600.

Regal Palms Resort: For Couples, Too!

For the most part, guests in our Regal Palms townhouse are families with children--from tots to teens. But that isn't to say that couples can't enjoy a stay at Regal Palms Resort, too!

In fact, a young couple recently stayed at our Regal Palms Resort townhouse. We asked them to share their perspective on staying in our townhouse versus booking a traditional hotel room.

"For the two of us, your four-bedroom condo was definitely more space than we needed. But it was nice to be able to spread out rather than being confined to a single room. It was also nice to have more than one bathroom for getting ready to go out, and we loved being able to do laundry throughout the week. That helped us pack lighter and avoid baggage fees at the airport!


"We also appreciated the full kitchen and the fact that we could buy groceries and eat at the condo. In fact, we saved a small fortune by eating breakfast and lunch in the condo every day. That allowed us to splurge on great dinners out every night.


"All things considered, Regal Palms was a great place for us, and it would be awesome for other couples. The nightly rates on the townhouses are extremely reasonable to begin with, but if you went with another couple and split the cost, it would be even MORE affordable!


"Finally, we just wanted to add that there is so much to do in Orlando even if you don't have kids with you. We had a blast!


"Thanks again for everything!"
