I don't think you can overspend to be honest. The Florida possibilities are endless and as long as you have the money to spend then you may as well spend it - everyone draws the line somewhere!

Got to admit that my tiny mind has been blown by the number of responses and views and I think it's great that so many are willing to share their costs and budgets - it really does help to see what the real costs actually are, and how massively they can vary. Am starting to sound too patronizing now!

You don’t sound patronising to me. I’ve loved reading other people’s plans and it’s given me hope that I can afford to go to Florida again on (quite) a cheap budget if I want 😊😊

Yep I’ve just realised I’m definitely doing something wrong - oh well too late to worry about it this trip.

Note to self shop around!

You're not 'doing it wrong', you can't. You've chosen a holiday, it'll be great, you can choose to spend more or less next time, have a great trip!
