Family Going to Orlando, Need Websites!

[FayeW]

I just spoke to my SIL and they are taking their first trip to WDW in February. I am sending her a link to all the websites I used for our trips, but I know I am forgetting some that I used for research (but didn't end up booking through). I think I have them saved on my old laptop, but at the moment, it is a paperweight and I can't even turn it on!

Can you kind folks give me the links to the websites you use for discount offsite hotel/condo stays?

So far I have Florida Sun Vacation Rentals, Skyauction, VRBO, Mousesavers, and Ticketmania & Undercover Tourist for tickets. I know that there is a website to ask for quotes from Windsor Hills owners and I also know there is a site that a lot of folks from the UK use ( I remember people getting Comfort Inn at Lake Buena Vista for something like $40 or $50 a night) but I don't know what the websites are. Can anybody help?

I got a great rate through this website for a 1 nt stay prior to our timeshare check in. Even though I'm American I could get prices in $$ and they even called me at work to answer my questions. They were very nice to deal with. I was a little leary at first but went on the UK boards to see if anyone could reassure and lots of folks there have used them too.

Sometimes their prices are actually higher than what we can get here but it's still worth checking out. In my case it was about half of Sheraton.com's rate for AAA members.

good luck!

ps. Also remind them to sign up for mousesavers newsletters. There is a link in each newsletter that gives an addl. mousesaver discount on Disney tickets. You can only get to these prices thru the newsletter link.

Alpharooms is exactly the website I was thinking of, thanks so much!

I already told them about mousesavers so they could use that link for undercover tourist.
