While many view the holidays as a time to curl up by the fire and watch the snow fall outside, us Floridians know that Christmastime is even more magical in the Sunshine State... From no blizzards to worry about to a calmer, more peaceful vibe, Florida truly is the place to be merry and bright. Read to see what makes winter so much better in Florida.
When you live in a beautiful Medallion home you can finally sit back, relax, and spend time with family and friends without any added stress. Whether you’re moving closer to family or your family’s coming to visit you, here’s why your holiday in Florida will be better than it has ever been before:
Calm, Sunny, and Warm
Yes, that’s right — Florida is constantly in a state of gorgeous weather. And what else can elevate a mood quite like natural sunshine? Around a time that can get hectic, whether you’re last-minute shopping for loved ones or preparing meals for holidays parties, the warm, sunny weather will make everything feel like a breeze. Not to mention, you still get to sit outside on your lanai at night and relax!
Easy Travel
Snow may be pleasant to look at (from the warmth and comfort of your home), but it’s certainly not pleasant to drive in. It seems like the holidays always beckon a snowstorm, which immediately turns traveling and everyday plans into a headache. Fortunately for Florida, we can visit our family and friends without the worry of a snowstorm, and enjoy the feeling of free and open possibilities.
White Christmas
When Bing Crosby and Frank Sinatra sang about the magic of a “White Christmas,” they forgot about another kind down south. While Florida may not be conducive to glistening snow, we have pristine white beaches that blow “the real stuff” right out of the water... All of our communities in Sarasota, Bradenton, Parrish, and Mount Dora are close to the calm and soothing sandy havens you know and love.
Traditional Festivities
Although Florida’s climate differs from the “typical” image of Christmas, it’s safe to say that Florida still celebrates this wonderful holiday with its classic and festive traditions. From Santa sightings to holiday festivals to visits to the North Pole, you and your family get to experience Christmas in all of its glory without any of the freezing weather!
No Personal Income Tax
When you never have to worry about personal income taxes, you can allocate your money towards the things that matter most to you. During the holiday season, this freedom relieves a large amount of stress and worry — and who can say no to that? Treat yourself while you’re out shopping for others!
There’s no happier place to have yourself a merry little Christmas than gorgeous Florida. In a Medallion home in Sarasota, Bradenton, Parrish, or Mount Dora, sit back on your lanai with your loved ones, enjoy the peace and calm of the sunshine and palm trees, and let all of your holiday wishes come true.
From all of us at Medallion Home, have a wonderful holiday season!
