Davenport

Located just to the south of Kissimmee and a short drive from the Walt Disney World theme parks, Davenport is a beautiful area and an incredibly popular holiday base with our Orlando holidaymakers. Positioned just off Interstate 4 and Highway 27 our Davenport resorts, pool homes, townhomes and condos provide easy access to all the Orlando theme parks, to an extensive range of local shops and restaurants, to the smaller Kissimmee attractions and dinner shows and to both the Gulf and Atlantic coast beaches. The promise of luxurious accommodation on high end guard gated vacation resorts and an extensive selection of premium golf courses draws hundreds of thousands of visitors to Davenport every year. The peaceful and relaxed environment is an ideal contrast to the fast-paced, high-energy days you’ll experience at the Disney and Universal theme parks.

Feeling adventurous and have a special birthday, anniversary or engagement to celebrate? We highly recommend a hot air balloon ride over Davenport, Kissimmee and even Walt Disney World. Picture yourself gently gliding across the canopy of trees as the sun rises, take a break from the amusement parks, enjoy a bird’s eye view of lakes, wildlife, and cityscapes and reconnect with the quiet calm that nature provides in the early morning.

The Davenport area dining scene offers something for every taste and budget, from the gourmet-curious to those who prefer to stick to chicken fingers. There are family friendly restaurants, gastropubs, steakhouses, seafood restaurants, diners, cafes and fast food options and takeaways. Diromio’s Pizza and Grill is a big favourite for pizza, pasta and wings, the Ovation Bistro & Bar serves delicious BBQ ribs, chicken, smoked meats and seafood or why not surprise the kids or your loved one with an ice cream treat or cupcake at Sh-booms Ice Cream & Sweets. Those with a sweet tooth can stop by Webb’s Candy Shop where you can indulge in some key lime ice cream and some of Webb’s Florida-famous goat milk fudge and pick up knickknacks and confectionary themed gifts and souvenirs.

The huge Posner Park shopping mall is located on US27 close to the junction 55 of the I4, a popular destination for big brand shopping, restaurants and a super-modern 9 screen IMAX movie theatre. Best Buy, JC Penney, Dollar Tree, Staples and Target are all great stores for gifts and bargains and there are also plenty of tasty food options including Chipotle Mexican Grill, Five Guys and Dos Panza Mexican restaurant.

Davenport is also home to a large number of outstanding golf courses, there is a huge choice of places to play, ChampionsGate, Highlands Reserve, Providence, Deer Creek and Polo Park are just some of our favourites among the many excellent options available.

For a complete chill out you can go fishing, feed the ducks, enjoy a walking trail, or even have a picnic in the sun at Lake Play, which is perfect for families looking to completely unwind and relax for the day.
