Experience Kissimmee
When did Experience Kissimmee join Visit USA?
We have been a member for the past five years.
What are the main benefits of membership?
We attend events like Unite and the Meet the Media evening, and it provides a platform to meet buyers, airlines, and other USA specialists.
Is Kissimmee still attracting the Brits?
Our UK visitor numbers are up and I think that is because the destination offers a greatvalue product.
Why is Kissimmee known as the ‘Vacation Home of the World’.
There is a huge amount of vacation rental homes, and for all budgets and clients – anything from two-bedroom condos to a 14-bedroom mansion. They are proving very popular – we are seeing a lot of multigenerational families staying in them.
What is there to do outside of the theme parks?
Kissimmee offers some great natural attractions and escapes, like kayaking along the waters of the Everglades, airboat rides or golf on a PGA course. The new Margaritaville Resort will open later this year, with hotel rooms, condos, cottages and a freshwater lagoon and waterpark.
