Simple Ways to Stretch Your Orlando Lodging Dollars

You've thought and dreamed about it for months, planning each day down to the minute: First Disney, then Universal Studios. Next day, Gatorland. But have you made plans yet for your Orlando lodging?

Prices for Orlando lodging can vary significantly, and you want to spend your vacation dollars wisely. Here are a few money-saving tips for your Orlando vacation.

It goes without saying, the first and easiest way to save money on your Orlando lodging is to plan ahead.

Booking your Orlando lodging early will ensure you get the dates and rates you want. Waiting until the last minute to make your Orlando lodging reservations may mean having to take your second or even third choice.

Next, make sure your Orlando lodging choice offers the amenities your family needs. Ask if your Orlando lodging facility offers enough space for your family, free wireless internet access, adult and kiddie pools, and full room service.

Third, make sure your Orlando lodging is centrally located. Even an incredibly low price for Orlando lodging can be a bad deal if you're forced to make a long drive to get to your vacation destinations. Ideally, your choice for Orlando lodging should be no more than five miles from theme parks like Disney, Universal Studios, and Sea World.

Finally, make sure your Orlando lodging choice doesn't hold any hidden charges for simple things like local phone calls, rollaway beds, or room service delivery.

Follow these simple tips and you'll see your hard-earned vacation dollars go farther.
