I am a bargain hunter for everything I buy, and last minute holidays are no exception to this rule! Travel city at the time I booked my last holiday were the cheapest I found on the teletext, and as the other opinions say on here a lot of the last minute deals that are advertised are never available when you phone for them.
Travel city did have all the advertised dates available when i phoned to book a holiday. I have done a hotel holiday in florida once but I much prefer to have the luxury of a private villa, they are always of a very high standard and they have everything you could possibly need from a washing machine right to your own private pool! The biggest plus with Travel City also is that at Sanford Airport they have a check in desk where you can obtain the keys to your property, this is a great plus for both the frequent traveller and the first time visitor, as if you have been to florida before you will know how time consuming it can be to have to go and collect the accomodation keys from an rental or management agency, also the times the flights arrive from the UK many of these are closed and we have even had a note on the door on one occassion with a plan of how to get to another office to collect the keys, another 30 mins drive in the direction we had just come from.
If you are the first time visitor it would be most beneficial to be able to collect the keys at the airport, as you will not know your way round quite so well as us frequent travellers.
We did have problems during our stay, it was only we had paid for pool heating and the pool was not heated and too cold to use, we have a disabled child and she can not go in water too cold,the local office did try to sort this out for us but a letter of complaint on my return Travel City gave me a full refund for the charges for the pool heating.
I would certainly recomend Travel city to any one and they would be my first stop for the next holdiday I book

Very good, indepth review. I am hearing all types of different outcomes with Travel City Direct. You could explain a little more at the airport in the UK, what happened there? any delays?

Good review. I have just booked with them for a Summer 04 holiday in Orlando and so hopefully they will be good. They were much cheaper than the other tour operators.

Hi and welcome to Ciao. A helpful second opinion, but try double spacing your paragraphs, as it is easier on the reader's eyes! Thank you and good luck. Louise
