Orlando Vacations

Walt Disney World and Resorts has been the top vacation destination in Florida for many years. What started as a theme park has now evolved into a massive complex including Magic Kingdom, Disney-MGM Studios, Epcot Center, and the new Animal Kingdom. There are numerous Orlando vacation rental options and resorts spread throughout the Disney area. A day or two at the Magic Kingdom theme park is the main centerpiece of most Orlando vacations.

Ticket options for the theme parks include daily tickets and multiple park and day Park Hopper passes. The theme park ticket options are discounted and more flexible if you are staying at one of the Walt Disney World Resorts. Be prepared to pay adult ticket prices for anyone over 10 years old. You would really have to hustle to see more than one Orlando theme park per day and it is not recommended.

In addition to the Disney attractions, Orlando is the home of Sea World, Universal Studios, the Orlando Science Center, the Orlando Magic basketball team, and WonderWorks. Visit the Orlando theme park resorts and hotels page to find Orlando vacation rentals near the attractions.
