Ok Im starting upon a eighth month to Disneyworld in Florida from California. Ive been seeking up rates an things as well as have motionless a to costly for me to stay during a review hotels. So we wish to stay in a motel or something in Lake Buena Vista where Disneyworld is.
Now we cant figure out how to get to Disneyworld or what we should do once we get off a craft in Orlando International Airport. How do we get to Lake Buena Vista from Orlando as well as how distant is it??? Can any one familar with a area or someone from Florida greatfully help!!!
btw a only me going. Im not formulation upon receiving any one else. Im wish to go alone as well as get divided from it all.
The number one best way is to rent a car. If you stay at a Disney hotel, there is free transportation all over property. If you stay off-property, lots of hotels offer a free shuttle service. But in my experience, it stinks. You will be waiting forever. Lots of hotels only have a one-time service, too, so you have to plan your day around their schedules. So I would highly suggest renting a car at the airport and bringing a map or GPS with you.
Another option is always a taxi or a Mears shuttle. Mears is cheaper than cabs and I have used them several times without problems.
I’m not from Florida, but lived there for 4 years, and have gone to Disney many times, both stay on and off resort. Many of the hotels / motels around Disney will have shuttles both to and from the airport as well as to and from the Disney / Universal Studios / Seaworld resorts. You can ask what shuttles are available and what the schedules are.
If you are renting a car, you could obviously just drive there and back, but I’m assuming you don’t want that option.
Also, you may be surprised that there are resorts on property that are just about the same price as those in the surrounding area. So make sure to do a lot of price comparisons and ask for AAA, Military or Student discounts if you have them.
I really suggest you stay in one of the value resorts on site. It includes free transportation to and from the airport, free transportation to anywhere in WDW, extra hours in the parks for resort guests only etc.
ETA: I would also suggest checking Mousesavers for specials and discounts: http://www.mousesavers.com/
Obviously, one solution is a rental car. Many of the rental car companies offer pretty attractive rates in Florida.
But you can also find a hotel shuttle service between the airport and your hotel, and from the hotel to the parks.
And while the hotels in the resorts are more expensive, that cost might be justifiable when you look at the cost of alternatives and the convenience of staying ‘on campus’.
Some great Orlando hotels to consider include BW Lake Buena Vista at Downtown Disney, Country Inn & Suites Lake Buena Vista and Royal Plaza Hotel.
