transportation question/MCO to beach to Disney

[greyraven40]

hey guys,
Okay going to WDW in October. Flight prices are not good for our scheduled stay but we can fly a LOT cheaper a few days before. If we flew into MCO and wanted to go to a place like Cocoa Beach for a few days via rental car when we landed, could we return said rental car back to MCO and then will Disney give us the free transportation to the resort?
I'm open to other suggestions. I have Hilton points to be able to stay a few days free somewhere and the cost of flight really gives us an opportunity to have a few days on the beach prior to our Disney week.

thanks!

Yes, as long as you're staying in a Disney-owned resort at WDW, you and your party are entitled to a round trip between MCO and WDW on ME.
