My wife and I are off the last week of the year. We'd like to go down to Florida, anywhere really, for a few days. I heard that it is prime season there during this time but if anyone has anything left over I'd like hear about it. Thanks.
 
Have a studio at Wyndham Sea Gardens for 4 night starting Dec 1st.

$325.

This size studio most likely is on the beach side of A1A ... leave the patio door open and listen to the surf hitting the sand. Smell the salt water.

PM if interested.
 
Thanks everybody

Thanks everybody for sending me offers. Since our situation is becoming clearer let me state our preferences. We need a 2BR in the Orlando area or very nearby in order to visit family in Tampa during our stay. Our optimal start date is Dec. 26th. Again thanks to everyone who responded. My apologies for not being clearer.
