Hey Everyone...Planning a return to Orlando for late April early May, 2012....10 days!!
This will be our first trip outside of the WDW bubble...(2 previous onsite in the last few years)
We want explore the rest of Orlando and area for the first time, as well as return to WDW parks for a few days.
Here is what I'm looking for in a hotel...Central enough to Universal and WDW, reasonably priced (less than $200 per night)... would really love kitchen facility and my two kids (boy and girl) each want their own bed this trip. In other words I need three beds.
A friend of a friend just recommended "Staybridge Suites" but I noticed that there are two different ones...Which one is nicer (newer)? Any thoughts on Staybridge? What are some other good hotel choices to explore?
also..
What are the best beaches for a day trip or two from Orlando? Is it better to take a few days away from our Orlando stay and book a resort along a beach? (Family really wants to relax by the beach somewhere this trip)...Gulf coast? Atlantic coast?...so much to decide?
