A weekend at Camp Margaritaville
Two days at the RV resort voted the best in the country, less than an hour from Orlando.
Friday, five in the afternoon. You arrive by car and the motorhome is already there: parked in the site, hooked up to power and water, air conditioning running, fridge cooling down. No hotel check-in, no line, no elevator with suitcases.
Camp Margaritaville is in Auburndale, between Orlando and Tampa, less than an hour from the parks. USA Today voted it the best luxury RV resort in the country two years running, and it takes about fifteen minutes to see why: two heated pools, a 45-metre (150-foot) waterslide, a splash pad for the little ones, a nine-hole putting course, pickleball courts, a tiki bar and golf carts to get around.
This is the weekend we recommend to anyone who has never slept in a motorhome and wants to find out whether they like it — without taking on the road, without leaving the comfort zone and without committing the whole trip. Friday night there is a campfire. On Saturday the kids disappear into the pool and come back at dinner time. On Sunday morning there is time for coffee outside before packing up.
And if you like it, the next one goes further.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a special license?
- No. Your Brazilian driver's license, along with your International Driving Permit (IDP), is sufficient. And we'll help with the driver verification process before the trip.
- What if I don't want to drive?
- Choose the "delivered and assembled" option: the RV arrives at the campground ready to go, and all you have to do is enjoy it.
- How does payment work?
- In USD, via a secure checkout. You'll receive all your vouchers before you travel, and you won't be charged until you confirm.

Camping at Disney in an RV: Fort Wilderness Explained for Families
— You wake up in a pine forest, surrounded by the scent of the woods and the sound of birdsong. You walk to the pier, hop on a boat, and disembark right in front of Magic Kingdom. It’s the same park day everyone else experiences—only it starts in a way no one will ever forget.

Swimming with Manatees in Crystal River: How It Works, When to Go, and What's True
— The water is crystal clear and stays around 22 °C (72 °F) all year round. You wade in slowly, without splashing your legs, and wait. A half-metric-ton creature appears from the depths, swims by a meter away, and continues on its way as if you weren’t even there. It’s two hours from Orlando, and almost no Brazilians know it exists.

Florida's Springs by RV: 22-degree water just an hour from Orlando
— Crystal-clear water flowing from the ground, a constant temperature of around 22 °C (72 °F) year-round, a forest all around, and almost no Brazilian tourists. Silver Springs has offered glass-bottom boat tours since the 19th century, and monkeys come down to the water’s edge. It’s just over an hour from the parks.

The Everglades by RV: Sleeping at the End of the Continent, Among Alligators and Stars
— Flamingo is located 61 km past the park entrance, at the southernmost point of the American continent. At night, there is no town, no cell phone signal, and no artificial light anywhere. A child raised in a big city often sees the entire sky there for the first time.

Key West by RV: The Overseas Highway, Campgrounds, and What Nobody Tells You Ahead of Time
— There are 42 bridges over turquoise water. In some spots, you can’t see land on either side—just the road and the sea—and it feels like you’ve taken a wrong turn and driven right into the ocean. Spending the night in Bahia Honda, with your RV just a few meters from the water, is the kind of night the family will talk about for years to come.
