Finding the Best Orlando Family Vacation Deals

The power of the consumer is evident in searching for online family vacation deals in Orlando, Florida. If you know where to look, doing a little comparison shopping will pay off handsomely. Let’s look at a few 1 click options for parks, restaurants, resource guides and lodging that will make your vacation planning a little quicker and  easier.

• Universal Orlando – Save money on each ticket purchased directly online from Universal including a coupon book with hundreds of dollars of savings for the entire family. The Universal website is continuously updated with potential discounts and savings options.

• Disneyworld – Perhaps the biggest way to save money is proper planning. So many families we personally know plan way too much and then never get the value from their Disney Park Hopper ticket plans. Make sure you plan a full schedule, but be realistic.
• Restaurants and Dining – Although Disney does offer a full dining plan, keep in mind that an average family can save literally hundreds of dollars by eating breakfast and dinner in your own vacation home. This makes any family vacation more affordable  by dining in your very own self-catering kitchen.
• Vacation Home Rental Deals – There are a lot of deals out there if you stick with high quality management company websites. Resist the urge to book from vacation rentals by owner (VRBO) unless you personally know the individual renting the home. Our personal favorite post on the most common complaints from renting from owners can be accessed here. We also suggest consulting our community reviews for spotting some potential bargains posted on management company websites.
