One man making the most of his post football career is the Chicago Bears coach Mike Ditka. Ditka, who launched a wine brand in 2006 and has Mike Ditka restaurants, is now opening two Mike Ditka Resorts in Orlando, Lighthouse Key Resort and Spa and Runaway Beach Club Resort.

Lighthouse Key Resort & Spa is a gated resort community with two-, three- and four-bedroom lakefront villas. The villas have stainless steel gourmet kitchens, private lanais, large master suites, separate dining and living rooms, in-home washers and dryers, and the latest in high definition, flat screen entertainment as well as a 42 inch television in each villa's great room. There is also a 4,600-square-foot European-style spa, a heated zero-depth entry freeform swimming pool, resort-style pool and hot tub, health and fitness center, 50-seat movie theater, billiards room, game room, meeting facilities, a grand clubhouse, deli and gift shop, business center, meeting space, poolside bar and high speed wireless Internet service throughout the resort.

Runaway Beach Club Resort will have one-, two- and three-bedroom villas and loft villas each with a gourmet kitchen and dining room, flat screen TVs and DVD players. The grounds include a heated "Key West" zero-entry family pool with water features for kids, a heated "South Beach" adult pool and tanning deck, a 24-hour professional fitness center, indoor basketball court, whirlpool spa, clubhouse/reception center, and complimentary shuttle service to the Walt Disney World theme parks.

Ditka will be in Orlando Feb. 27 to unveil the new resorts to the media.
