What Orlando hotel has the best waterslides and lazy river? Traveling with 2 kids, ages 5 and 9. Thanks.
The best lazy river in the Orlando area is at the JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes. The best water slides at an Orlando resort are probably at the Holiday Inn Resort Orlando Suites.
When would you say is the best time for a family trip to Orlando (mainly Disneyworld) with two kids aged 4. They’re not in school yet so any time of year would be fine. What time has the smallest crowds and cheapest hotel prices?
Thanks!
Meredith
January to April is the best time for a combination of weather, hotel prices, and crowds. September is also good for cheap hotels and smaller crowds though you can still get summertime heat and humidity.
