QuaintPlaces in and around

Orlando, Florida

  

Orlando is a tourist city if there ever was one.
It is home to several major theme parks and attractions. These are open year-round, although they close earlier at night in the winter months.  There is so much to do, that many families vacation here regularly.

  

Orlando is a little over an hour's drive from several Atlantic beaches.  Plan to pay tolls on some of the highways.  Sanford, Cocoa Village, and other QuaintPlaces are also nearby.

  

There are miles of hotels, restaurants, shopping centers, and amusements along International Drive in Orlando.  Wonderworks, a museum, was built to appear as though it was ripped from the ground and dropped upside down.  The lobby maintains this appearance.

Why shop online?

 

Prices and selection are often better from these Web sites than in your
neighborhood stores.  Many of them offer free packing and shipping to
your door or to your gift recipient.  So, you can save time, gas, and
money.  Merchant sites must meet high security standards to advertise
on QuaintPlaces.com.

  

Did you know?

  

When you place an order from these merchants, they contribute a small
commission to QuaintPlaces.com.  These commissions do not increase
the cost of your purchases.  Only purchases made within a few days
after your initial "click" to their sites generate commissions for us.
(Please do not delete your cookies.)

  

These commissions, plus sales of our own photos and cards, are
necessary to help defray the cost of maintaining QuaintPlaces.com,
which currently operates at a loss.

  

Your purchases will help us provide more information and photos about
quaint places.
