About Pop-Tarts Bowl 2026
Orlando becomes the capital of college football's wildest bowl game on December 29, 2026. The Pop-Tarts Bowl brings a 5:30 p.m. ET kickoff at Camping World Stadium - 74,000 seats of confetti, mascot chaos and ESPN prime time - with the tailgate lots and sports bars filling hours before kickoff. It is Florida bowl week at its loudest, in a city that already knows how to throw a party.
A private villa beats any game-day hotel: park the whole crew, host the pre-game on your own terrace with a pool and big screens, then send a car to the stadium. Bowl trips are group trips - a kitchen, space and a pool to recover in on the 30th make the long weekend work.

How we screen every stay
Every home we represent is someone's personal residence, in a real neighborhood, and we've committed to the owner and their neighbors that we'll place it only with guests whose plans fit the home. So, like most professionally managed homes, we confirm a few details with every guest before a reservation is finalized — who is staying, the purpose of the trip, and agreement to the house rules and rental agreement. This is the same for everyone who books with us, and it's meant to protect you too: it keeps the neighborhood quiet and welcoming, keeps the home in the condition you expect, and ensures the property truly matches what you need. Once confirmed with the homeowner, we'll send the final quote for signature within one business day.

- No undisclosed parties, events, gatherings, dinners, or photo/film shoots. Any event must be disclosed in advance, approved by the homeowner in writing, and paid for (event fee/deposit), and must follow city ordinance and house rules.
- The primary guest must be 25+ (or the owner's minimum), must be staying on-site, and signs the rental agreement and provides ID.
- Pet policy: pets by approval only. Service and assistance animals are always welcome — tell us in advance.
- Quiet hours 10 PM–8 AM; this is a residential neighborhood.
- Every guest is screened and the homeowner has final approval on every reservation.
