City of Kissimmee

Kissimmee is a city in Osceola County, Florida. It is the county seat of Osceola County. The area was originally named Allendale, after Confederate Major J. H. Allen who operated the first cargo steamboat along the Kissimmee River - the Mary Belle. It was renamed Kissimmee when incorporated as a city in 1883. The name, Kissimmee, came from 'Cacema', a Native American name meaning 'long water'. It’s defined by its proximity to the region’s multitude of amusement parks, including the massive Walt Disney World Resort complex.

Bluebay Grand Esmeralda, Riviera Maya

As someone who does not make recommendations, or do reviews, I simply have to give a shout out to the best travel professional ever, Brittney!! We had an amazing vacation booked in Playa del Carmen, at the Blue Bay Grand Esmerelda for an all inclusive week of awesome! Brittney was fast, efficient and accommodating to any requests I had and no question went unanswered (and I had ALOT of questions!)  I now recommend her to everyone I know, both personally...
