Orlando Vacation  Condos: The most economical accommodations you can get

By Mark Whichard 

Rising costs and a weakening economy may get you wondering how on earth you can enjoy a planned vacation at Disney World. There is no reason to cancel your plans because accommodations in the Orlando area are probably much cheaper than you have imagined.  The secret to getting the most economical accommodations in the Orlando area is to look for vacation condo rentals, condominiums that are available for daily and weekly rent. 

Vacation condos are not only inexpensive but they are downright comfortable, convenient and luxurious.  They are all fully furnished, air conditioned. In addition they are situated in resort communities that have a number of amenities that will be attractive to any vacationer. These amenities include a TV and DVD player in each room, a Community Clubhouse, tennis courts, basketball, swimming pool and on-site cinema. In addition it is possible to get condos that have high speed Internet connections and unlimited local and long distance telephones.   

A two bedroom, two bath condo near Disney World can sleep up to six people comfortably. All of the condos are furnished and have well equipped kitchens that are ready to use. The condos are well located, in resort communities that are just minutes away from Disney World and other Orlando attractions. Many of these communities are served by shuttle buses that will take you to the attractions and to nearby shopping. You will not have to spend long hours in your car when you stay in one of these rental condos.  

I started off talking about economy, so let’s look at what it costs to get a rental condo near Disney World.  If you come in the low season then it will only cost you $99 per day to rent a two bedroom, two bath condo. If you come with six people then you are spending less than $17 per person per day.  You will never get so much luxury at this price in any hotel.  If you come during the peak season of Christmas, New Year, Thanksgiving or Easter then the rate rises to $140 per day, which is still cheaper than hotel accommodations. 

In addition to saving money by avoiding the hotel, the condo option also allows you to prepare your own meals whenever you like, saving you additional money as well as giving you flexibility.  Even if you come with a large family you will still get more space and be more comfortable in a condo than you would be in a hotel. 

In order to get the best accommodations at the best price then it is important to reserve your condo in advance.  You can choose from two or three bedroom vacation condos or you can opt for a three bedroom, three bath townhome.  Whatever you choose you will be able to combine luxury, economy and convenience in accommodations that will allow you to enjoy your long-awaited Orlando vacation.
