Description Candy Sweet: Orlando

Built around a kids' game room packed with climbing structures, slides, and arcade games, this home on an 80-acre resort makes it difficult to peel younger guests away. A screened pool terrace with a grill and lounge seating beckons – and the resort's water park, with its slides, lazy river, and wet playground, is right there on the grounds. A daily shuttle runs to Disney World and Universal Orlando, so the big parks are firmly in reach without the car-park scramble.

Home truths:
* The kitchen and bathrooms are stocked with starter essentials to get you going on arrival.
* You'll have access to the on-site swimming pool, sports courts, playground, fitness centre and water park here. They're shared with the resort's other guests.
* Your host offers free round-trip shuttle services to Universal Orlando and Walt Disney World. You'll need to reserve seats in advance – speak with your host for more information.
