Fun Spot America — Big Thrills with Small-Town Charm

Looking for classic thrills, go-karts, and carnival-style rides without the crowds of the big theme parks? Fun Spot America in Orlando is a family-owned amusement park offering free admission, pay-as-you-go attractions, and a throwback vibe with modern thrills.

Located on International Drive, it's approximately 15–20 minutes from most villas — an easy, spontaneous outing for the whole family. Old Town in Kissimmee offers much the same thing on the other side of town, with vintage rides and a weekly car cruise, handy if you're staying at a villa in Kissimmee.

Pay-as-you-go pricing makes it an easy evening to add on, especially from eight bedroom villas with a games room or homes for a party of twenty where not everyone wants the same night out.
