Little People, Big World

I was approached by a marketing firm from one of our associations to host the Roloff family as they were coming to Orlando to film a segment of their show “Little People, Big World”.  I must admit, I have not seen a lot of episodes, however, the ones I’ve caught were very interesting and I hugely appreciate the integrity, drive and tenacity of Amy and Matt – the mom and dad.

The marketing firm told me that the show draws about 7 million viewers per week on TLC (The Learning Channel).  They also said “TLC is dedicated to high-quality, intelligent and relatable non-fiction entertainment that inspires, engages, informs and unites the audience in the spirit of life’s possibilities. TLC intimately connects more than 94 million homes in North America. TLC is currently one of the largest cable television networks in the United States, producing more than 800 hours of award-winning original programming.”  After hearing this, I thought that it might give us a great opportunity to show the country what a vacation home from Global Resort Homes is all about.

Specifically, the Roloff family was looking for an Orlando vacation home that was handicap accessible.  We just started managing homes in Cypress Pointe and I had a home for them, which is fully handicap accessible.  The home has widened doors on the ground floor, level access to all external doors and a specially adapted bathroom with wheel-in shower, Toto toilet/bidet and drop down grab bars.  It also had a fully electric ceiling track hoist in the master suite between the bedroom and bathroom and an electric profiling bed with height adjustment.  The screened-in pool area includes a wide pool deck for safe and easy wheelchair use and an electric pool hoist which is positioned to allow access to both the 28ft x 14ft pool and the spa.

I heard that the Roloff’s had a great time in Orlando and that they visited Disney’s Magic Kingdom and SeaWorld’s Discovery Cove.  I am very anxious to watch the Orlando episode and to see how much fun the Roloff’s had staying in our vacation home.

Amy left this note in our guest book:

“Thanks so much for opening your home to us.  We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed every aspect of our stay.  The pool, hot tub, air hockey & pool table were the perfect compliment to our daily excursions in and around Orlando.  Staying in a house gave a new dimension to our vacation, and my family will enjoy the memories of our stay for many years to come.”

Globals Newest Orlando Vacation Home Community!

Proudly celebrating 15 years of property management in Central Florida, Global Resort Homes announces its newest Orlando vacation home community, Cypress Pointe!! Cypress Pointe is a private and tranquil gated community that offers spacious 4, 5 and 6 bedroom homes.  Located in Polk County, near Champions Gate, Cypress Pointe is less then 10 miles from the gates of Disney World.

The architectural styling features impressive stone exteriors letting you know that you’re vacation home is something special before you even set foot inside.  The elegant interiors include spacious bedrooms (each having its own TV), large living rooms and fully equipped kitchens.  Each vacation home at Cypress Pointe has its own private screened-in pool and hot-tub.  Enjoy the Florida sunshine in the privacy of your home and relax tired muscles from longs day spent walking around the theme parks by soaking in the hot-tub!  Most of the homes at Cypress Pointe have game rooms strategically located within the home, designed for hours of fun and enjoyment rather then being retrofitted in the garage.
