Lake Wales is nice to stop off at.

En route, about half way(ish!), there is Gatorama (gatorama). Never been ourselves but passed it a few times whilst travelling up and down from MIA & FLL.

There's a few little towns you go through where you can stop for food also.
When you first leave Miami there's nothing much but long straight roads and the odd small town but as you get nearer to Disney things start getting more and more busy with built up much bigger towns.

We normally book a cheap motel not far from the airport on the way towards the US27 near a supermarket just in case of any delays and can also re-energise. Wake up in the morning early and fresh then on our way rather than a very tired possibly dark drive after a long day flying.

Hi thanks for your reply..
We had a cruise booked and was staying a few nights in Miami..but as cruise cancelled and situation we thought it better now to just head to the dibb villa we have booked.(safety first and all that)as Miami seems to be bad re covid19...and parents age..
So we’re flying into Miami I’ve booked a night at a hotel at the airport then picking up the car and heading to southern dunes..
