I just responded to your other thread also, the HGVC one. If you have any questions about that resort, let me know. I will be there on Wednesday and have stayed there twice before.

Did you ever stay at the hilton resort on international drive near the outlets? I am hoping that we can trade into that resort next august. If not then I will try to trade into the hilton at seaworld.

If you're looking for somewhere nice but reasonably cheap I'd recommend the Parc Corniche Resort.

It's practically on top of Seaworld and a pretty good place to stay.

They do 1 and 2 bedroom villas (with Kitchenette) and the price was about $99 per room per night last time stayed.

I now remember driving by there on our way to seaworld this year, it did look nice.

Yes, we have stayed at both. Sea World one in April 06 & April 07 (and our upcoming trip on Wednesday) and the International Drive one in September 06. Both are nice. Personally, we prefer the Sea World one. No particular reason.

The International Drive one is newer and was very quiet when we went in September, rooms were clean, nice, and it is a very beautiful property, etc. It seems like the Sea World one has more to offer for little kids, with their activity schedule, choices of pools, indoor theater, etc.

If you haven't already done so, go to Tripadvisor website and read the reviews and look at the candid traveler and hotel photos for both, and you'll get a better idea maybe of which one you prefer to stay at. The International Drive resort actually gets a higher rating (#3 out of 288 hotels in Orlando) but we still like the Sea World one better.
