The ALL STAR Story of the Month for September is from The McCurdie/Wright Family from New Jersey.
“We booked two villas – 3 & 4 bedrooms. It was fantastic. It was my mom’s 1st trip to Orlando. She fell in love with Lighthouse Key Resort,” said Ms. McCurdie.
“I have raved about this place to anyone who could hear me. I have co-workers looking to rent next year. The kids enjoyed coming to our room every night to watch the Disney fireworks from the balcony.”
