Arabian nights and hotel help, please

[pal2pluto]

My family is doing the Disney Cruise in October and will have a night in Orlando afterwards.....in port around 9am and renting a car until the next morning. We want to go to the Arabian night dinner theatre but also have a nice but not expensive hotel to swim at for the day......any suggestions on hotels? What great rates might I come across? Can I book Arabian nights and the hotel through Dreams Unlimited? Any feedback on Arabian nights? Thanks!

The only thing I can help you with is feedback on the Arabian nights dinner show. My b/f family came in March and we did this. First, I would suggest you get a coupon for it which is in many of the Orlando area coupon books. Second, you have to like horsemanship to enjoy this show. It is amazing how they work with the horses and I thought the show was great.

The food wasn't bad. The dinner is prime rib and it was okay...nothing fantastic but not bad either. There is unlimited drinks (soda, beer or wine). Overall, it was an enjoyable experience. Oh but be advised, they did a hard sell at the ticket booth to take the stable tour. The party I was with did it because one member of our tour owned a stable and wanted to compare, but others who took the tour felt is was too much for what they got. I personally enjoyed the closeup look at the horses and seeing everyone running around getting ready.

Stable tour? My dd (11) would love that......but how much do they charge and is that before or after the show....how long to go through it?
