Finding Accomodation For Your Orlando Trip


Orlando has six different areas where one can look for a place to stay after the long and adventurous day of tripping to theme parks and recreational spots all over the place. It is quite a confusing task to carry out so here are some ideas that may help you choose the best place that will suit your vacation needs while you are in the family entertainment capital of the world.

South of Disney or Highway 192

Over the years, this highway has been a well-known destination for many tourists visiting Orlando. With the many restaurants, some good golf courses, and family attractions as well, many visitors consider this area a good one for finding hotel accommodations. Prices of the hotels are less expensive as compared to other hotels in other areas. However, the structures are already quite old since most of them were built in the late 1970’s and that many of these hotels are not connected with national brands.

North of Disney World

It is also called the Lake Buena Vista area which is the newest spot to look for places to stay in Orlando. The hotels built in this region were put up in the early 1990’s and mostly associated with national brands. This part of Orlando hosts great shopping and dining sites only a few miles away from each other.

Inside Disney World Resort

For a Disney aficionado, this area is the best option to scout for a good hotel. It is obviously the closest to Disney World and they offer free shuttle services which run for every thirty minutes. Disney hotels are run at the highest standards so there is a total guarantee for an excellent stay in Orlando. However, these hotel rooms only cater up to four people in a single room and as compared to hotels alike outside the Disney World area, the prices are almost doubled.

Universal Area

There are also good options that can be considered in this district however, not as much as there is in other areas of Orlando. Only a few hotels can be found in this place and there is not much competition going on between these places to stay so the prices are really not that attractive.

Downtown Orlando

Visiting Orlando means visiting the theme parks and beautiful attractions that this city offers. So if you do not want to go through the hassle of long trips from your hotel to these theme parks and not to mention the time that you will be wasting while traveling thirty minutes to the Disney World, it would not be the best option to have your stay downtown.

International Drive/ Convention Center Area

This area is just a few minutes away from SeaWorld so it’s a good choice for those who will be going to that park. However, the prices are a little expensive here while the amenities that the hotels in I-Drive offer are mostly geared for business travelers than for families.

Nevertheless the place does have a lot of restaurants offering the most delectable and fine cuisines but you must be able to put up reservations if you are intending to dine in these restaurants since during the peak hours of dining, it is very difficult to find a seat due to the conventions going on in the town.

Orlando Accomodation Options


Traveling, and choosing where you’ll be staying while at your destination, is sometimes a bit of a hassle because you’ll have some considerations in different types of accommodation arrangements. The same holds true if you’re on vacation in Disney, because you’ll still have to think about where you’ll be staying for the night after you finish your day touring Disney. Some options that you have can really just depend on your budget considerations, as well as the time you’ll be staying out or in the hotel.

Renting rooms while on your vacation or business trip

If you’re traveling alone, then you most likely won’t be too choosy as to where you’ll be staying. Since you’ll probably be spending most of your time out anyway, the most important thing you need is to have a bed to sleep in, and a place to store your stuff. This is probably the cheapest option you can find as to money, but it will also probably be the most lacking in standard conveniences.

Motels and budget hotels

Going to Disney for your vacation, if it’s just a long weekend at the most, and you’ll also be spending most of the day out touring, then you can consider renting a family-sized room at a motel, or booking at an economy hotel. Since these establishments mostly cater to travelers, accommodations are pleasing enough that you won’t feel that you’re just above camping out in a bare shelter. This is still a worthy option to consider if you can live without some luxuries found at five-star hotels.

Rental homes and villas

Staying at Orlando for an extended vacation with your family, one can feel the draw to have another home there, since you’ll probably notice that the longer you stay at hotels, the more expensive it gets when the bills start piling up. Renting out a home if you’re traveling only with your family and need only a few bedrooms for you and the kids is a good option as well.

As for villas, these are better suited for travelers who are with a medium-sized group, and need something like 6 bedrooms or more. With a multitude of choices available, you can choose a house or villa that is right for your budget. From modest houses to villas that have pools and big screen TVs, you can get something that will be just right in terms of expenses in renting it out.

Full-blown luxury

If budget is not really a consideration, and you want to live the good life while on vacation (since it’s your money and you can do with it as you please), luxury hotel accommodations at most major resorts and theme parks can be a good proposition while on travel. You’ll get the works when it comes to amenities, like a tournament-level golf course, spa services to help you relax, and vast pools to stay cool in. of course, it has levels of luxury well above other hotels.

24/7 room service and all-day-all-night restaurants to serve the needs of its guests. You’ll get the whole shebang, giant-screen TVs, game console, and even bottles of champagne upon your arrival at the hotel. A little welcome gesture, and truly best in class.

But whatever it is you choose when you’ll stay on vacation in Orlando for Disney world, you can count on it that the trip is going to be worth it.
