How To Find Orlando Vacation Rentals For Your Next Trip
• Cost – Choosing an Orlando vacation rental will save you money over renting 2-3 hotel rooms for your family. In fact, the savings could be considerable. With fully stocked kitchens, you can prepare your own meals and save even more money on dining out. For a typical family of four, this can amount to hundreds of dollars in savings or more, depending on your length of stay. • Comfort – Spaciousness is the name of the game with vacation rentals in Orlando, and you can’t usually come by that in a hotel room. If hotels do offer kitchens, it generally comes with a significant cost increase. Fully-stocked kitchens make you feel like you’re at home. • Convenience – Every attempt is made to make you feel right at home while you’re in an Orlando vacation rentals property. This includes convenient access to beach gear, sports activities and gear, or other items you’d typically need during a vacation – such as bicycles, tennis, gym or other recreational equipment. First Things First Before honing in on a rental property, make a list of your wants and needs. Do you want to be on the beach, lakefront, river, or waterfront? Do you prefer to be near the airport, downtown or in a more secluded, isolated area? How many bedrooms do you need? How many bathrooms are required so that everyone has maximum comfort and privacy? If you’re a non-smoker, you’ll definitely want to put this on your list of must-haves for Orlando vacation rentals. Ditto if you are a smoker. Are there any disabled persons in your traveling party? You’ll want to be assured the Orlando vacation property is accommodating to those needs. What about pets? If you’re bringing the family dog or kitty, you’ll need to know in advance if pets are permitted and how many are allowed. Not every vacation rental allows pets, and some require a special deposit. Others are more accommodating. It pays to know what the policies are in advance of your arrival. You may also want to know how far the property is from local attractions such as golf courses, the beach, shopping and dining, Disney World, Gatorland, SeaWorld Orlando, and others. Finally, you’ll want to know what your budget is per night – since that’s how most Orlando vacation rentals costs are calculated. Typical per night costs, for purposes of budgeting, range from $50 to $1,000. Refine Your Selection Now, go through reputable Orlando vacation rentals websites to check out in depth the kinds and types of properties that appeal to you. Make a list of questions and either email the site or call their toll-free number to get the answers. Get a copy of all policies (deposits, cancellation, cleaning or other charges) before you rent. Then finalize Orlando vacation rentals and get packing. An Orlando Vacation Is Fun For the Whole Family Make your next leisure-time trip an Orlando vacation and it will be one they’ll never forget. Orlando is home to Disney World, the largest of the Disney theme parks. In fact, there’s so much to see and do in just Disney World, that this alone can be reason enough to plan a trip to Orlando. Six Parks for Adventure in One Disney World is comprised of four theme parks and two water parks. Disney theme parks include Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom, Epcot and Hollywood Studios. Besides being entertaining for the kids, there’s plenty for Mom and Dad to enjoy as well, including entertainment, dining, shopping and tours. • Animal Kingdom – Disney bills it as the world’s largest animal theme park, and it’s easy to see why. Spread across 500 acres of lush landscape are more than 1,700 animals from 250 species, Animal Kingdom is divided into 7 areas: Camp Minnie-Mickey, Asia, Africa, Oasis, and the areas of Discovery Island, Rafiki’s Planet Watch, and Dinoland, USA. • Magic Kingdom – They say here is where enchanted dreams come true. Witness the long-loved Disney characters, parades, spectacular fireworks display, along with classic attractions and lots of entertainment. Magic Kingdom’s 107 acres include the following areas: Adventureland, Frontierland, Main Street USA, Fantasyland, Tomorrowland, Mickey’s Toontown Fair, and Liberty Square. • Epcot – At 300 acres, Epcot is twice the size of the Magic Kingdom, and is divided into two areas: Future World and World Showcase. In Future World, as Disney’s promotional material states, “ideas become reality.” Here you’ll find technological advancements, wonder and innovation – and one of the fastest attractions in Disney parks. The World Showcase does just that – showcase 11 countries’ culture, cuisine, customs, shops and restaurants. Pavilions surround the World Showcase Lagoon and include: Canada, China, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Morocco, Norway, United Kingdom and United States. • Hollywood Studios – Here are live shows, backstage tours, attractions and special events – all designed with the family in mind. And there are also two Disney water parks, Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon. Here are some brief descriptions of each: • Blizzard Beach – This Disney water park features one of the world’s tallest and fastest waterslides, as well as rides and slides for the whole family. • Typhoon Lagoon – For some real adventure, catch some 6-foot waves in the Surf Pool, or swim and snorkel with real sharks (don’t worry, it is safe!) in Shark Reef. There are plenty of fast waterslides, and even a children’s area with appropriately-sized raft rides.
