A Guide to a Family Holiday in Orlando

It is almost time to start taking vacations again and the majority of us could not be any more excited at the prospect of visiting somewhere new, enjoying new food, and trying out different things again. It has been a long time coming, not just for the adults, but for the kids too!
If you’re in a fortunate position where you can start planning for your next family holiday, then might this piece tempt you into looking at Orlando as your vacation destination.

Here is a guide to a family holiday in Orlando, so you and your little ones can get the most out of this well-deserved and much-needed break!

Your Timing Is Crucial

It is no surprise that travelling and holidays are simply going to be pure chaos this year. Many of us are in the same boat with wanting to go somewhere new, being desperate for a break and having that itch just to leave the same place we have been in for over a year. Pop that on top of your traditional busy times such as school holidays and the summer season, and it could very well turn into a battle that resembles The Hunger Games.
Plan in advance – work around the term times and see if you can go earlier or later than what you would usually opt for. That being said, it is sure to be busy wherever you go and whatever you do, so if you can change your vacation time slot, then just prepare accordingly.

Get the Right Home from Home

While we may have been in our own four walls for much longer than we anticipated over the past year or so, that does not mean we are about to abandon the comfort that comes with such a luxury. Home is a solid base where we can feel safe, relax, and rest – all of which are very conducive to an excellent holiday, especially when you have children!

Have a browse of villas in Orlando to rent to find your ideal home away from home, with a couple of luxuries thrown in of course. After all – you are on vacation.

Pick the Non-Negotiable Activities

If you leave the children in charge of this, there is a good chance you will already expect Disneyland to be high on the list. The famous Walt Disney World Resort is proudly one of Orlando’s greatest attractions, and managing to go on holiday and not step foot into this iconic world is no easy feat. It is best to agree upfront about what you would all like to do, and be sure to make sure it corresponds with the time you are staying on your vacation. For example, give everyone their ‘own day’, which they can plan. Everything else can be left to spontaneous moments and discoveries, which are also a big part of what vacations are all about!

If you’re not sure where to go or what to see, be sure to use TripAdvisor and read reviews so you can get a good idea of a place before you commit.
