On behalf of everyone (who works, visits, or lives) in Margaritaville, we mourn the loss of Jimmy, a true national treasure, and express our heartfelt condolences to his family and everyone around the world who loves him.

Artist, performer, writer, navigator, friend, and entrepreneur - it is hard to imagine anyone who has ever brought so much fun to so many.

What Jimmy loved most was getting on a stage - big, small, indoors, outdoors, anywhere in the world - and changing the attitude and latitude of audiences to a vacation state of mind.

Jimmy lived his life like his songs: from beaches to boats to bars, sailing, surfing, and flying. He knew how to have fun and cared deeply about bringing everyone else along with him for the ride. When he flashed that signature smile one-on-one or to 100,000, somehow you just felt happy to be in his orbit.

His original idea for Margaritaville was to expand the opportunity for as many people to experience the lifestyle immortalized in his iconic song as possible.

We celebrate his life, believe his spirit lives on like a never-ending encore, and will see his radiant smile and that twinkle in his eye when we look towards the sun and will continue to share his way of life wherever, whenever we can.

Fins Up Forever.

Thoughts for how to visit your favorite places at less expensive (and crowded) times of the year.

To dodge higher costs and crowds, many moms and dads let their children skip school; frame Disney as educational?

Here is another cool thing one can do - bowling at nearby Disney Springs!

Good article about the cottages at Margaritaville Resort Orlando! Book yours through Vstays.com

"Why Helen would recommend this: As soon as we arrive, the children are thrilled with our new “house”, picking bedrooms, scattering possessions and turning on all the TVs (each bedroom has its own flatscreen). For children, a home-away-from-home to explore is as much of a novelty as the holiday itself. Having separate rooms for different-aged kids is invaluable, plus a lounge area for parents eradicates that “sitting in the dark, in silence” hotel curse. Some cottages even have private hot tubs – is this the parent equivalent of having it all? Room to spread out is a luxury in itself, but having a full kitchen can also save clients money by enabling them to cook meals at the cottage, with grocery orders stress-free to arrange."
