Description
Located in Christmas, Florida, Christmas Dreams is the world's first year-round resort and theme park designed specifically to accommodate children with life-threatening illnesses. To make the experience as fun and effortless as possible, families can walk out of their guest suites and immediately find themselves in the park – no parking lots, no lines, no tickets and no hassles. Christmas Dreams works with families, medical professionals and the world’s leading wish-granting organizations to offer families an opportunity to visit this special place. Families with sick children visit for up to one week, entirely cost free. Numerous exhibits highlight the wonder of Christmas – from Santa’s Workshop and Mrs. Claus’ Kitchen, to the World’s Largest Christmas Tree and Crystal Cave, a real-life, snow-filled adventure. Christmas Dreams gives the greatest gift of all: hope beyond pain and suffering, and a chance for all children to enjoy the inspiring magic that Christmas has to offer.
