About the host
Hosted by Alexis Lyew
Having lived in the area for years, I’ve developed a real love for its unique character—the beautiful Lake Monroe, the charm of the historic downtown, and the relaxed Florida lifestyle. There's a lot of history and a vibrant, growing community here that I love to share with others.
I truly enjoy being a host because it allows me to meet people from all walks of life and help them experience the best of Sanford! In my free time, I love to travel- I am a sucker for good food and new experiences! A new day is another adventure that awaits!
My aim is to provide a comfortable, welcoming, and seamless experience for all my guests. I take pride in providing a clean, cozy, and well-equipped space, and I'm always happy to offer recommendations on the best local spots, from authentic German food at Hollerbach's Willow Tree Cafe to the perfect spot for a sunset view.
My home is a fantastic launching pad for all your adventures. In under an hour's drive, you can be at the entrance of all the major theme parks!
Here are the typical driving times (traffic permitting):
- Universal Studios Florida and Universal's Islands of Adventure are approximately a 40-minute drive.
- SeaWorld Orlando and Discovery Cove are about a 45-50 minute drive.
- Walt Disney World Resort (Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, Animal Kingdom) is typically a 50-60 minute drive.
- The beaches are also accessible, with the Atlantic coast (like Cocoa Beach) about a 45-minute drive away.
- Blue Spring State Park is only 24 minutes away!
Whether you're here for the theme parks, proximity to the Sanford Orlando International Airport (SFB), or exploring the Central Florida Zoo & Botanical Gardens, I'm here to ensure you have a memorable stay.
I look forward to welcoming you and helping you make the most of your stay in Sanford!

Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it perfectly encapsulates what I love about living in Sanford: it’s the ideal blend of historic charm, modern convenience, and a welcoming community atmosphere, with easy access to everything Central Florida has to offer.
The vibe is a fantastic mix of laid-back and vibrant; we're just a short walk or quick drive from the famous historic downtown Sanford, so we get the benefit of being close to all the action—the craft breweries, the unique local shops on First Street, and great restaurants—without the noise of being right in the middle of it all. It’s incredibly central, and I love being able to hop on the main roads and be at Walt Disney World or Universal Studios in under an hour, which makes hosting guests who are here for the parks so convenient.
We are also close to the Sanford Orlando International Airport (SFB), which is a huge plus for travel. The neighborhood itself is a true residential area with friendly neighbors who take pride in their homes; the streets are calm, and it feels safe and welcoming.
My favorite part, however, is the accessibility to nature. We're so close to Lake Monroe and the waterfront, and taking a walk in Fort Mellon Park or just sitting by the lake watching the sunset is my favorite way to end the day. This neighborhood offers the perfect balance—a peaceful place to relax and unwind after a busy day of exploring everything Central Florida has to offer, and I'm confident you'll find it as charming as I do!
