"Disney World" and "cheap" seem like mutually exclusive concepts, but with Disney vacation rentals, they suddenly go hand in hand. For affordable Disney area accommodations, don't put your faith in resort hotels. Instead, turn to a Disney vacation rental and expect the best in luxury and comfort - but for a shockingly low rate.
A trip to the world's most famous theme park gets expensive fast. And it's not just lodging and park tickets that put a dent in your bank account; spend an hour in Epcot and watch your money disappear as you chow down on delicious food from around the world, or go to Downtown Disney and count the seconds before the little ones start whining for the high-tech toys, collectible stuffed animals, and magical memorabilia.
Instead of sacrificing those special extras that help to make a Disney World vacation memorable (in the name of a frugality), consider staying in a Disney vacation rental in Orlando, Kissimmee, or just outside the park. If you do, you'll be proudly toting your heavy wallet around the park and have no problem spending a little cash on that framed blow-up photo of your daughter blissfully smiling alongside Donald Duck.
But what's the catch? How can you get more room and more amenities, for a lower rate? Disney vacation rentals are simply the second homes of people like you, and they provide the same easy access to Disney World or the beach that the area's hotels provide. However, they've got more space and more add-ons and are the key to turning an ordinary vacation into an extraordinary one.
You also get more choices, which is especially refreshing for someone who's used to hotels. Disney vacation rentals are cozy condos for two, massive town homes for ten, and everything in between. Some are secluded and lakeside and others are a short shuttle ride to the theme park. Take your pick!
Stop wasting your time and money with hotels. Instead, save money and guarantee you and your family an unforgettable experience by booking a one-of-a-kind Disney vacation rental.
Take a Vacation From Life
With everything going on in the world, from politics to the economy, to life's stressors, it is important to take a break from it all. I prefer calling it taking a "vacation from your life". My husband and I and our children are going to Disney World this week, and it could not have come at a more perfect time. Like many others, I am stressed with everything happening around me, and on top of that I have some deadlines for a book I am publishing. I am ready to go escape life for a bit, even if it is just temporary. I of course am saying this now, prior to having two tired, over sugared, and overstimulated little ones. I am not saying that everyone needs to take a literal vacation, but I am saying you need to take a "break" from your normal routines. Sometimes we get so caught up in the news, in the media and the frenzy going on, that we can't function on anything else. We lose sight of the joys and blessings in our lives. If you need to take a "vacation" from your life in order to get refocused and re-energized then absolutely do it. Some people are more prone to taking on negative energy around them, and so it is vital that they remove themselves every now and then. I am one of those people. If people are sad, I feel their sadness. If people are elated, then I feel their joy. I am much better at protecting myself so that I don't carry others' negative energy as my own, but it is constant work. My advice to you this week and the coming weeks, is to do what you can to stay grounded and positive. Take a break every now and then from the news; you won't miss anything that you won't hear again the next newshour. As for me and my family, we are off to the happiest place on earth...at least for one week~
ACTION TIPS FOR THE WEEK:
1. Turn off the TV
How are you benefiting by watching the news all day? The news right now is fairly toxic and depressing. By checking it every so often, you will get the information you need. This is what I mean by taking a "vacation" every now and then. When you are starting to get stressed or overwhelmed, turn off the television and do something more positive and productive. You will feel much better!
2.Do your research
If you are unsure about your financial situation, or how everything is affecting you, do a bit of research. Call your financial advisor. Contact a financial planner. If you do not have a financial planner, I would highly recommend Cathy Schwartz. She is extremely knowledgeable and friendly. Education leads to empowerment. Get your questions answered. If you are still undecided on who to vote for, research both candidates websites as well.
3. Create your own escape
If you can, create your own escape from reality. Create some sacred space in your home, where you can meditate and feel at peace. Fill it with fresh flowers and relaxing music. This will be the area you retreat to when you are feeling overwhelmed and stressed. If possible get out of your home or environment when feeling down. Go for a walk. Go for a relaxing hike. Take the time to clear your head.
