10 Orlando Insider Tips

When selecting a hotel in Orlando keep one word in mind: Location, location, location. The JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes was our choice because it's an easy drive to many of Orlando's top attractions—including the Disney parks SeaWorld and Universal Studios. The only "drawback": There were so many on-site activities—incredible pool with a lazy river, tennis courts, 18-hole championship golf course, sand volleyball, guided kayaking tours, spa—that I wished we had set aside an entire day to play on the grounds.
