But with so much to see inside, you won’t want to sleep much.
Behind a secret door in the kitchen is an otherworldly laser tag room with a three-story-high interactive spaceship inside.
Guests can climb over bridges, slides and three levels of the spaceship itself and shoot at targets to earn points.
As soon as a high score is reached, the rocket launch begins with sound, light and smoke effects.
In addition to the intense fun and games, the 1,500-square-foot home also features a massive lagoon pool with two slides and two hot tubs, nestled behind a waterfall.
The huge kitchen-diner is a dream, with its own service kitchen in case you bring your own staff to cook during your stay.
There is also a fully equipped gym and a lounge bar where the big kids can have fun when the little ones are in bed.
The 12 en-suite bedrooms can accommodate 40 guests and the rocket even has bunk beds for children.
You can rent the property through Jeeves Florida Rentals. It is the largest and most lavish home in their extensive portfolio.
While it’s not cheap if you want it to yourself – prices start at just over £2,000 a night – if you can find 39 people to come with you, it’s a fraction of the price.
The desire for giant homes like Morlando began with a simple idea from Jeeves to design themed bedrooms for children to make their visit to Florida even more magical.
Erich Neugebauer of Dreamport Studios, who designed the Rocket Room and other immersive playrooms for Jeeves’ houses, says that the desire for immersive houses parallels the Theme parksthat are constantly evolving into new, groundbreaking experiences.
Erich, who comes from the Disney area, said: “Guests today are looking for a different level of interaction and interactive spaces.”
“What started with murals and bunk beds with slides has evolved into houses like Morlando and his rocket.”
This is his largest independent project to date and he recognizes that houses like this are now becoming a destination in themselves.
Despite own luxury Pad and private poolthis home and others in the Kissimmee area are not far from the action.

Getting there is also easy: it is only 25 minutes from Orlando International Airport.
While you sleep like a rock star, there is no doubt that this area is a hotspot for celebs.
Olivia Rodrigo treated her GUTS show crew to a day at Walt Disney World during a break from their world tour.
Gigi Hadid was also recently spotted in the city, as well as Emma BuntonJon Bon Jovi and the Beckham family.
Who knows, maybe they’ll even stay in the house next Door.
Use these tips on your next trip to an amusement park

- Go to the back of the theme park first. The lines for the rides are the longest once they open.
- In summer, take a water ride in the middle of the day to cool off when the sun is at its hottest.
- Download the park’s app to track which rides have the shortest lines.
- Come by on your birthday, because some parks have “birthday badges” that get you free gifts.
- If it rains, contact the park and depending on how much rain it has been, you may be able to get a free return ticket.
