Are there hotels that offer shuttles from MCO?

My son and I will be traveling one day before his high school band trip. We are going early so I can get all rooms, meal vouchers, etc. sorted out before the entire group arrives. We're flying in after midnight and weren't planning on staying onsite that first night. I was wondering if there were any hotels who would shuttle us from MCO that night and then on to WDW the next morning. Thanks!

The most convenient hotel for the first night would by the Hyatt in Orlando International Airport. You could then take Disney's Magical Express (DME) to your WDW resort hotel the next morning.

There are also a bunch of hotels north of the airport with complimentary shuttle service. Their shuttles will take you to and from the airport (not all the way to WDW), so you would need to use DME the next morning. Whenever you use hotel shuttle anywhere, the downside is waiting for the shuttle and the time on the shuttle. You could lose a half hour in each direction compared to just staying at the Hyatt.

The least expensive option would be to Priceline (Name Your Own Price) a 3.5* hotel in the MCO zone. I'm pretty sure all hotels in that zone offer airport shuttles (MCO to hotel - NOT WDW) and probably be in the $50 range.

Take the hotel shuttle back to MCO in the morning and get on the DME to your WDW Rersort.

There is a Country Inn and Suite 2 miles from MCO that has free shuttle. In the morning when you check out have the shuttle take you back to MCO and then you can take DME to Disney amusing that you staying onsite that night.
