Condos/Resorts Around Universal Studios/Sea World

[can]

Hi Friends! For the first time we are thinking of doing a non-WDW trip and venturing out to spend some time at Universal Studios, Sea World, etc. Can anyone suggest some condos/resort (will need 2 bdrm, 2 ba) around that area as we usually stay at WDW or Lake Buena Vista area? Would like a place that perhaps there is more than one community swimming pool as it can get quite crowded the last week of March. Thanks for your help!

The only one around Universal is Westgate Lakes but I think you have be a member of a timeshare to stay there. I know there are some nice timeshares around SeaWorld but again you have to be a member of a timeshare to stay. Orange County zoning laws prohibit rentals which is why most...if not all are down near Disney.

The Hilton Grand Vacation Club at SeaWorld is one of the nicest around.

Thanks for the good info, learned something new as I wasn't aware of that.

You can pay to stay at both of those. In fact, you can pay to stay at most timeshares.
