Traveling to Orlando from Australia with Family, lots of planning to do

[HappyFingers]

Hello All

well weve decided to make our way over to Orlando and plan to do
walt disney world (1 week)
universal studios (1 week)
Kennedy space centre (1 day)
allure of the seas Biggest cruise ship in the world (1 week)
time not assigned to anything in particular (6 days)

we have begun a savings plan as we prefer not to use credit when enjoying holidays

we estimate that the holiday will cost 25 grand minimum, with 30 grand being the preferred target

we plan to stay in the resorts at walt disney world and universal studios irrespective of the higher cost as we want to avoid standing in line where possible

kids are going to be 11 and 8 yrs old

so far thats all i know
i have heaps of questions that i will ask and hopefully those who have been there and done that will be able to help me out with some answers

right now im trying to figure out which is the best hotel to stay in at disneyworld.
we plan to stay deluxe, we figure we should enjoy it because we dont know if we will make it back, well not unless something dramatic happens in the personal wealth department

cheers all
talk soon

Welcome to the Disboards! Have you decided where you will be staying yet?

well from what i can gather there are 3 deluxe resorts at Disney world

ones the hard rock, and i cant recall the other 2
its prolly not going to be the hard rock as we arnt really looking for a music themed experience

i was gonna ask everyone else thoughts

best i can come up with is the resprt should have a really big pool
