    Enterprise for $350 total with the taxes also (this is for July 1-8). They don't charge for add'l drivers other than your spouse (unlike Dollar which charges regardless).

    July 2013 car rentals

    It was on their website (both Dollar and Thrifty, but I think Thrifty actually called it the "hot rate". It was flashing in yellow after I got my quote, so I clicked it and got a few more dollars taken off.

    I checked and 2-3 companies have lowered their minivan rates to $285/wk base rate. This is down from $500+ when checking a few months ago. With taxes only about $350-$370. Check out Dollar and Thrifty, after they have an special Orlando hot rate of $266/base, making it about $350. They charge...

    I used Autoslash.com late last week and they found a minivan through Dollar for $423 (includes taxes). I read about them in a NY times article. They continually look for coupons/deals on your behalf and will automatically lower the reservation (or tell you to accept). My orig reservation was...

    July 2013 car rentals

    Not sure if anyone has had any experience with Fox. I reserved a minivan for $518 for July 1-8. Used Car Rentals.com app on my iphone. I am going to try Autoslash.com; though I was having problems with their website. They are supposed to track your rental and reprice it as deals/coupons...

    Paradise Palms Resort or Emerald Island

    Thanks for your input as well. We booked a 6 BR villa at PP for July. I am looking forward to it! We'll have lots of kids and hope to spend time at the resort since Disney daily is out of the question. It's going to be hot anyway so a really nice community pool is a plus. JW

    Paradise Palms Resort or Emerald Island

    Thanks Ametista! I appreciate your detailed feedback. We too hope to have a relaxing week. I did mean townhomes (I called them condos). A few follow up questions: What was the privacy like in back where the splash pool was? You mentioned relatives coming to stay. We have other family...

    Paradise Palms Resort or Emerald Island

    Hi all. I am planning a big extended family trip to Orlando first of July and am looking into renting a villa for 16 ppl. From what I understand Paradise Palms (PP) is a newer resort (or at least the villas are a new addition to the condos). Looking at the 6 BR homes, they look fantastic with...
