After returning from one of Orlando’s many theme parks and attractions, relax in the comfort of your Orlando vacation home living room or home theatre with some classic, family friendly films. A few of our favorites:
Finding Nemo (2003)This Oscar-winning animated feature is Pixar at its very best. Literally a fish-out-water tale, “Nemo” features a son’s adventure to return home and his father’s own journey to find him.
The Wizard of Oz (1939)Every generation’s classic film about Dorothy’s trip to Oz and the friends she meets along the way. Re-watch with your family or show this quintessential gem to your kids for the first time. There’s no place like home.
E.T. (1982)Grab a box of tissues and relive the adventure of Elliott and his friendship with an extraterrestrial who is trying to get home.
Toy Story (1995)Catch Woody, Buzz and the whole gang of toys as they work together to find their way back to Andy. If you’re up to the task, watch the entire top notch, award-winning trilogy from Pixar.
The Muppet Movie (1979)Gear up for the new upcoming “The Muppets” by returning to the first film featuring Kermit, Miss Piggy, Gonzo and dogs and bears and chickens and things. A laugh-a-minute with dozens of celebrity cameos, this is the perfect way to introduce your children to The Muppets.
Pop the popcorn and settle in for a relaxing and fun night with your family in your ALL STAR vacation home.
There are a number of advantages to booking your Orlando vacation this time of year. The theme parks are all decked out in celebration so you can enjoy all the holiday magic that is already in the air! Crowds are considerably lighter, and you will find the best specials and rates during early November and early December travel dates. While avoiding longer lines and crowded parks, you will also enjoy Orlando’s incredible Fall weather. The mornings and evenings may be a little chilly so bring layers for your all-day excursions, then head back to your vacation home to take full advantage of your heated pool or hot tub.
Taking your Orlando Vacation during the holidays doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a traditional family Thanksgiving meal. Here are some great ways to celebrate Thanksgiving without any of the hassle:
Avoid the grocery stores.
Don’t waste your vacation standing in lines or fighting over the last pumpkin pie. Pre-order your groceries from Garden Grocer. Everything you need to prepare dinner will be delivered to your vacation home prior to your arrival.
Stay out of the kitchen.
If you’re looking for a little more relaxation during your vacation, let someone else do the cooking. From the appetizers to dessert, Publix Supermarkets can provide you with an entire meal, complete with all the traditional dishes your family will enjoy.
Hire a personal chef.
Treat your family to a gourmet meal prepared by your own personal chef. For Thanksgiving dinner or through the duration of your stay, a personal chef is a wonderful way to enjoy delicious meals with your family during your vacation.

Don’t miss this “must-sea” holiday Orlando vacation event!
The ALL STAR Story of the Month for November is by the Hite Family from Virginia who stayed at Windsor Palms Resort.
“We stayed in an ALL STAR vacation home the week of Thanksgiving 2009. My wife, two daughters (ages 12 and 4), my parents and I planned a trip to Walt Disney World early this past summer and were thinking of booking a suite in the same hotel we stayed in two years ago on a visit to WDW.”
“But after some research by my wife, we discovered that ALL STAR Vacation Homes was a much better choice for our family. Not only was it less expensive, but it had a private, heated pool. The house also provided us with much more room and privacy.”
“All six of us agree that when we get the chance to return to Walt Disney World there is no better place for our family to stay than in an ALL STAR vacation home.”
