HELP! Going in June, never stayed off-site, want to visit WDW/Cape Canaveral/SeaWorld

[triplefigs]

It would be a surprise trip for my triplets' birthday (they will turn 7). We always stay on-site at a monorail hotel, but we're trying to do a cheaper trip this time. We want to include Cape Canaveral for the Space Shuttle lift-off (barring any delays), Sea World, and a few days at WDW.

I'm looking for a nice hotel/condo that would have 1 or 2 bdr and comfortably hold 5 people. A great pool is very important too!

Any suggestions on where to stay, things to do off-site? Do I need a touring plan for Sea World in June? Where can I find out about visiting Cape Canaveral?

thanks so much!

how about timeshares?

hilton grand vacation club is across the street from Seaworld.

there are several marriotts in the area.

closer to Disney - Cypress Pointe, Sheraton Vistana Resort, Embassy Vacation,

you can rent them from owners
www.myresortnetwork.com
www.tug2.net

or you can rent a home - for much less than what you paid for a hotel.

if you still want a hotel - there is in DD - doubletree

Seaworlds sells a fun card pass for the price of 1 day you get unlimited entrance to the park for the whole year! They also have be a kid for a day which gets you the kids price of admission into the park for the day.
We love Sea World its one of our favorite parks!

We just bought SeaWorld tickets for our trip in April. We paid the kid price for the adults and get 6 days admission for the price of one. We have always enjoyed Seaworld and you can see everything in one day. However, my DD7 has never been here and we think it will be nice to visit 2 or 3 times and be able to take our time and not rush. We have two weeks.

As far as a place to stay, check out the rental homes. Find one with its own pool and your daughters won't want to leave.
