Orlando Holiday Villas Or Hotels – Which Are Best?
When a trip to Disney World is on your calendar, among the many things to think about for your Orlando vacation package is where to stay, and Orlando holiday villas are a real alternative to the regular hotels and motels in Central Florida.
First of all, review the cost and convenience of staying in one of Disney World’s resort hotels. Look for vacation packages that offer theme park tickets as part of the deal. Think about the extended hours and free transportation generally available from Disney. And consider how much time you will spend in the parks, because if it’s a high proportion of your vacation time, this may be the best option for you. Then compare prices with hotels outside Disney World – even though they may not include theme park tickets in their room rates, many offer free transportation to the parks.
One cost to factor into your planning is the car expense. If you plan to fly down to Florida and stay at a hotel offering park transportation, you may not need to hire a car. Even if you’re driving down so you have no car hire cost, you can still avoid parking and gas charges if the hotel can provide you with the transportation you need.
Another benefit that some families value in a hotel is the ability to meet friends for their children in the pool or the exercise room. Many families find that their children need some additional distraction when they’re thrown together for an extended period and the hotel diversions such as a video games room or a pool table may help to diffuse family tensions and arguments – essential if the vacation is to provide the required relaxation and benefit.
To conclude the examination of hotels, also factor in the quality and security benefits you get. Security: you can pay by credit card and take comfort from the protection that the card company provides if anything goes wrong. Quality: leading hotel chains promote their brand by standardizing the style, size and extras that they supply across the board.
How does this compare with an Orlando holiday villa?
For many families booking an Orlando rental home can be more cost effective especially if they are a large family or perhaps two families traveling together. The price you pay is for the home not per person so for instance if your party needs a home that will sleep twelve people it could be less expensive than booking a number of hotel rooms. It also means that kids can have their own room instead of sharing with their parents
And wouldn’t you like to have some sort of eating-in facility while you’re on vacation so that you’re not forced to go to the fast food place or family diner whenever you want to eat or drink? Orlando holiday villas come complete with some level of dining area and a fully equipped kitchen so you can enjoy a snack or even a formal meal whenever you wish.
Unless you have more stamina than most, there will be some days when you want to take some time out and relax. Most rental villas have a private screened swimming pool plus pool toys and towels for renters to use. Some owners of single family vacation homes have installed games rooms so that renters can play pool, darts, ping pong or foosball. And many villas contain multiple television sets and DVD players so different family groups can watch different programs at the same time. What more could you ask for?
So when you are booking a vacation, choose the option that best meets your accommodation needs, a hotel or Orlando holiday villas.
