orlando in september/??

It is very hot and humid in early Sept. with almost daily brief but heavy thunderstorms in the evening. Last time we were there in early Sept. the highs were in the mid to upper 90%26#39;s.

orlando in september/??

Not only is it hot and humid, but the peak of hurricane season is September 10th, so you are more likely to have a hurricane in early September than any other time. If you can wait until October, you%26#39;ll like it much better.


I went last sept just after Katrine hit the coast and I have to say the weather was brilliant. It was hot and sunny and only rained twice the whole time I was there.

I%26#39;d heard about all the urban myths about hurricans etc but I%26#39;d go back in spet again without a second thought.

Another good side, the queues at the parks are pretty much non-existant!


thanks to everyone for your help..just to say that i have posted a new post instead of replying to this one by accident.please see ';weather and tickets'; post.

Thank you

Risking a trip to Orlando in September for someone driving there in the U.S. isn%26#39;t a big deal. Risking at trip for someone flying from the U.K. may be a different story.

If you do decide to go in September, be sure to purchase travel insurance. The hurricane forecasters are saying its going to be another bad year. I was in Orlando in Sept. 2004, in between the three hurricanes that affected Orlando directly or indirectly. I could easily have cancelled at the last minute being one state (Georgia) away (glad I didn%26#39;t have to), but it was a very risky venture.


i must by lucky, i%26#39;ve gone in septemer 3 years in a row with no hurricanes.

but its a good time, go after the holiday weekend and its so quiet in the parks, no queing for any rides in any park any year

  • Budget hotels near Discovery Cove??

    Looking for something like (Comfort Suites, etc....) near Discovery Cove. Anything within walking distance, clean, safe with great pool? Also, for those who are familiar with the Sea World/Discovery Cove area, will you please suggest good places to eat.



    Budget hotels near Discovery Cove??


    There aren%26#39;t any hotels really close to Discovery Cove. The closest would probably be the Hilton Grand Vacation Resort. I would recommend using the I-Ride Trolley system and staying at one of the hotels in the I-Drive area. Hotels on Sea Harbor Drive or on Westwood Blvd. would be the closest. You would need to cross Central Florida Parkway to walk to Discovery Cove and there are no sidewalks in that area. It would be much safer to taxi or arrange a shuttle. Some hotels offer complimentary shuttles.



    Budget hotels near Discovery Cove??


    Thanks for the info. I was researching hotels in the Sea World/Discovery Cove area over the weekend. I think I have narrowed it down to the La Quinta or Homewood Suites based on reviews. Any comments or other recommendations for hotels $100 or less in the I-drive area? I just want to stay away from the Disney crowd. Thanks!




    Depending upon your travel dates and number of persons, the Residence Inn might be a good choice. They include a hot breakfast buffet in the price of the room. All units include a nice kitchen / kitchenette. After Spring Break season and before the summer season arrives, rooms go as low as $104 a night. We have never been disappointed by Residence Inn stays.





    We are staying at the one on Westwood closest to Seaworld in early June, but the one on International Drive might work out well also.

    when are you going?

    South Beach Gym

    We are staying at the Kent. Is there a gym close by we can use daily and how much do they charge per day?



    South Beach Gym


    The gym is called Crunch and it is a block away from the hotel.

    Royal Table Dinner questions???

    I am looking at booking a dinner time seating at the Royal Table, for my family and my daughter who is 8yrs old. I am however confused because on the web site it says that character dining is only at breakfast and lunch. I was hoping to plan an evening at the Magic Kingdom and then stay and watch the fireworks.



    So my question is do I bother with the



    Royal Table at dinnertime? Would my Daughter miss the Characters? Or would she still enjoy it enough to justify the cost.



    Thanks



    Royal Table Dinner questions???




    We ate dinner at the Royal Table and the kids thought that it was neat eating in a castle. I don%26#39;t know if she%26#39;s always there, but Cinderella was on the main level of the castle to get pictures with.



    Royal Table Dinner questions???


    We ate at Cinderella%26#39;s castle last year. In the lobby before your table gets called there are sometimes characters to get pics taken with......we saw Cindarella who was then relieved by Mary Poppins. In the actual restaurant itself there were no characters but all of the waiting staff were dressed as castle servents (i.e. jesters uniforms etc, looked very medieval!)





    Although there are no characters here, kids love dining in castle surroundings.....and the desserts are fab (try the bibbidy bobbidy brew.....you get to keep the glass!)





    Hope this helps

    Hi Saints,

    We visited the magic kingdom twice during our two week trip last year (June). On the first day there we made reservations at the restraunt for the week after (when we planned to visit the magic kingdom park again) and we had no problems getting a table. It really just depends how busy it will be when you arrive.

    Hope this helps


    Hi Saints,

    I booked from Ireland by ringing the no. Fla4fun provided exactly 180 days from our holiday date at 12 noon on that day (the call centre opens at noon GMT) and there was no issue with the booking. However, at that stage some of the times for the character breakfast here were gone.

  • What can you tell me about Center Court's...Verde Suite...

    I%26#39;ll be in KW on for the weekend on April 21-23rd and was wondering about these properties. I want to be somewhat close to Duval, and it looks like these three Center Court places are really nice. Anyone know personally?



    What can you tell me about Center Court's...Verde Suite...


    My fiance and I stayed the ';Tropical Hideway'; (through Center Court) during our December %26#39;02 trip to Key West. It%26#39;s on the same property with the Pineapple Retreat %26amp; the Seaport Suite. I didn%26#39;t get to see inside the other 2 units, but I can vouch for the common grounds of the property and its location in Old Town.





    The property is well maintained and in a quiet neighborhood. The pool is fairly large (by Key West standards) and since it%26#39;s only shared with 2 other units (one of which has its own private dipping pool) we never saw many people using it. The landscaping on the property was extensive, and it was very convenient to have complimentary laundry facilities onsite. The daily housekeeping service was a nice touch as well. Even on the days that we put out the ';no housekeeping necessary'; sign, they still were nice enough to leave fresh towels for us!





    I wouldn%26#39;t classify the property as being ';close'; to Duval street. It was roughly 6-7 blocks away, which was about a 20 minute walk at a VERY leisurely pace for us. We never minded the walk - we felt more like locals by staying in a primarily residential setting, and it was a nice change of pace to adjust our walking routes to tour through the surrounding neighborhoods on our way to/from Duval.





    If you want, you can use a online service like ';MapQuest'; to show you exactly how far it is from the property to Duval St. Use the intersection of Frances St %26amp; Eaton St as your starting point, and the intersection of Duval St %26amp; Eaton St as your ending point. That gives you a straight-shot distance to Duval St, with Mallory Square being a block or so away from that ending point.





    I liked our location for being so close to the some of the more ';local'; hangouts AND one of our favorite lunch spots - B.O.%26#39;s Fish Wagon. The added benefit of being away from Duval was how peaceful our neighborhood was. We could leave our French doors open in the mornings and evenings and the only sounds coming in were the rustling of the leaves in the breeze %26amp; the birds chirping. Very relaxing!
