During your Orlando vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Holy Land Experience
Battles to get tax-exempt church status and smaller-than-expected attendance caused this tourist attraction to add a parking fee and boost rates by $13 in its first 2 years. But backers still believe Jesus Christ and John the Baptist can go head to head with (or at least play second harp to) Mickey Mouse and Woody Woodpecker. This $20 million, 15-acre attraction near Universal Orlando is trying to court more believers by offering exhibits focusing on Jerusalem between the years 1450 B.C. and A.D. 66. Instead of thrill rides, visitors get lessons about Noah's Ark, the limestone caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were discovered, 1st-century Jerusalem, and Jesus' tomb. The trimmings include a display of old Bibles and manuscripts, a Bedouin tent where biblical personalities tell Old and New Testament stories, and a cafe serving Middle Eastern food. New additions include a multimedia production of music and art giving an overview of worship through the ages; a small play area for kids; and the Oasis Outpost, which features a rock wall and archaeological dig, misting station, and a small refreshment spot. The attraction has caused some controversy: Orlando-area rabbis, among others, say they believe it's a ploy to convert Jews to Christianity. Allow 3 to 4 hours.
Orlando Museum of Art
This local heavyweight handles some of the most prestigious traveling exhibits in the nation. The museum, founded in 1924, hosts special exhibits throughout the year, but even if you miss one, it's worth a stop to see its rotating permanent collection of 19th- and 20th-century American art, pre-Columbian art dating from 1200 B.C. to A.D. 1500, and African art. Allow 2 to 3 hours.
Wet 'n Wild
Who knew people came in so many shapes and sizes? Stacked or stubby, terribly tan or not, all kinds come here, so there's no reason to be bashful about squeezing into a bathing suit and going out in public. The 25-acre Wet 'n Wild is America's third most popular water park (behind Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon, respectively). Disco H2O, the park's newest addition, debuted in 2005; it's an enclosed flume ride where a four-passenger raft sends you flying through the sights and sounds of the '70s, complete with mirrored lights and disco tunes blasting in the background. Other options include The Flyer, a six-story four-passenger toboggan run through 450 feet of banked curves; the Surge, which is one of the longest (580 ft. of curves) and fastest multipassenger tube rides in the Southeast; and Black Hole, a two-person spaceship-style raft that makes a 500-foot twisting, turning voyage through darkness (all three rides require that children 36-48 in. be accompanied by an adult). You can also ride Raging Rapids, a simulated white-water run with a waterfall plunge; Blue Niagara, a 300-foot six-story loop-and-dipster that also has a plunge (48-in. height minimum); Knee Ski, a cable-operated half-mile knee-boarding course that's open in warm-weather months only (56-in. height minimum); Der Stuka, a six-story, free-fall speed slide; and Mach 5, which has a trio of twisting, turning flumes. The park also has a large kids' area with mini-versions of the big rides. If you enjoy the water, plan on spending a full day here.Note: In addition to the admission prices below, Wet 'n Wild is part of the multiday FlexTicket package that includes admission to Universal Orlando (which owns this attraction), SeaWorld, and Busch Gardens in Tampa.
Royal Pacific Resort
The third of Universal Orlando's three resorts has an open-air courtyard with an exquisite orchid garden, palm trees, waterfalls, and lagoons, including one in which a float plane with a 90-foot wingspan is docked (the scene reminds more than a few people of Gilligan's Island). The Royal Pacific doesn't quite succeed at creating a Polynesian paradise (you can hear the screams of riders on the Hulk Coaster from the pool area), but it's definitely the best Universal resort in the theme department.The rooms, though smaller than those at other Universal resorts, are attractively decorated with lovely wood accents and carvings; they are far better than those at comparable Disney resorts. And the lagoon pool area -- the largest in Orlando -- is lovely. The big plus: Guests get no-line access to almost every ride at Universal Studios Florida and Islands of Adventure, and seating privileges for shows and restaurants. The big minuses: The self-parking lot ($6) is a very long hike from the hotel, and I've heard several complaints in specific reference to this hotel about run-ins with barking dogs (Loews hotels are pet-friendly).Facilities: 5 restaurants; 3 lounges; outdoor heated pool; kids' pool; cabanas; putting green; shuffleboard; volleyball; Jacuzzi; sauna; recreational activities; play area; supervised children's center; arcade; concierge; free water-taxi transportation to Universal parks; free shuttle to SeaWorld; transportation for a fee to WDW parks; 24-hr. room service; babysitting; valet.
Hampton Inn at Universal Studios
There's nothing fancy about this simple hotel, but it's in a good location if you plan to spend most of your time at Universal Orlando, which is only 2 blocks away. It's also relatively close to SeaWorld and Downtown Orlando and about 10 miles from Disney. Some rooms have microwaves and refrigerators. Although there's no restaurant on the premises, there are several within walking distance.
Hawthorn Suites Lake Buena Vista
One of the features that is most appealing about this 5-year-old property is its floor plan. Its 500-square-foot standard rooms have four areas: a living room with a pullout sofa, chair, and TV; a full kitchen with a dining room table for four; a bathroom with vanity; and a bedroom with a recliner and TV. Two-bedroom units are also available. The extras here are a big plus, too. The Hawthorn offers a free hot American breakfast buffet daily, a social hour (hors d'oeuvres, beer, and wine) Monday through Thursday, and a complimentary light meal on Wednesday evenings. The atmosphere is friendly, the service is good, and it's just 3 minutes from Hotel Plaza Boulevard.
