Has anyone stayed at the Ritz Carlton in Orlando?

We are going to Florida for spring break but DH and I do not agree on where to stay. DH wants the Ritz (club level) in Orlando and I want to go to small hotel on the beach near Clearwater. How crazy would the Ritz in Orlando be at Easter?

We've stayed there several times, also stayed at the JW Marriott (they share the property).

What are your other plans-- parks, beaches, anything else?

The Ritz is closest to Seaworld, not far from Universal Studios, and about 20-30 minutes from WDW.

I think everything in Orlando is going to be crowded Easter Week-- many places have Spring Break that week. With that said, I think the Ritz can handle those crowds very nicely.

We are still up in the air with driving or flying. If we fly we are not renting a car because I refuse to pay the rediculous rates. Will we need a car if we stay at the Ritz? The only plans we have are going to Discovery Cove. We are trying to avoid the crowds as best we can.
