SARAH & KEN'S
JOURNEY TO MAGIC...
For the last 27 years we have owned a
restaurant on the idyllic Greek island
of Kerkyra (Corfu). Recently however, we decided to
slow down the pace a little and take time to travel.
The plan was to rest a bit and relax a lot. Having fun
with customers in a tourist resort on a beautiful Greek
Island is hard work, you know!
We now spend a few months in our small lakeside
(lochside in Scottish) pied-a-terre on the Gareloch in
Scotland before heading to our piece of paradise in
On the practical side, it had to be on the doorstep of
all the action, yet peaceful enough to feel as if we were
'away from it all'. But, practicality aside, we dreamed
of a home that had the perfect space for everyone to
spend precious time together, for the whole family to
kick back and relax at the end of a hard, fun-filled day.
As soon as we stepped through the front door of the
single family home, we were instantly gripped by a
serendipity moment and knew that we had found
'The One'. The spacious open plan aspect, the game

Florida. They don't call it the "Happiest Place on Earth"
for nothing!
Cleverly avoiding the cold wet Scottish winter, we
spend November through May in our Florida home,
just a couple of miles away from our pride and joy
vacation rental home - Serendipity at Indian Creek.
Living so close gives us a great opportunity to
personally meet our guests and be on hand if they
need us for anything. We also have a superb property
manager available 24/7.
We decided to buy our little piece of sunshine 9 years
ago. It was quite the process trying to find perfection
- we spent 6 months viewing hundreds of homes
around Orlando! Why so long? Because we had an
enormous wish list!
room for the kids (young and old!) to play and enjoy
themselves to the max and the extended outdoor
living area had us hooked. Not to mention our own
private pool!
We love to travel, but find that on occasions we miss
the comforts of home when we're away, so we wanted
to create a real 'home from home' for our guests that
provided all those creature comforts and finishing
touches that make all the difference.
Wherever we go, we are always on the look out for new
ideas that we can implement in our/your home and we
believe that we've picked up some real gems along the
way. We hope you'll enjoy all the facilities we offer and
we'd love to hear of any other helpful additions that
spring to mind before, during
