During your Orlando vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
Water Mania
You'll find a variety of aquatic attractions in this 36-acre water park. You can boogie board or body surf in the wave pools, float lazily along an 850-foot river, enjoy a white-water tube run on Riptide, and spiral down the Twin Tornadoes water slide. If you dare, ride The Screamer, a 72-foot freefall speed slide, or the Abyss, an enclosed tube slide that corkscrews through 380 feet of darkness, exiting into a splash pool. You can climb the all new Rainrock Mountain (at an extra charge). There's a rainforest-themed water playground for kids; a miniature golf course; and a picnic area with arcade games, volleyball, and a beach. Note: This park has fewer thrill rides than Disney's Typhoon Lagoon and Blizzard Beach or Wet 'n Wild (listed a bit later), so it has fewer teens and young adults, making it more attractive to older adults or families with younger kids. Allow 4 to 5 hours. Tubes, towels, and lockers are all available for rent for a small fee and a deposit ($2 for a towel; $5-$6.50 plus $1 deposit for a tube; $4.25-$6.50 plus $5 deposit for a locker). A child-size life vest can be rented at no charge. A cabana with 4 towels, 2 chairs, 2 lounges, 2 tubes, a table, and 1 locker can be rented for $55 with a $10 deposit.
Flying Tigers Warbird Restoration Museum
If you're a fan of vintage flying machines and their restoration, this working museum displays and restores aircraft from the World War II through Vietnam eras. Owner Tom Reilly offers guided tours through a museum full of hands-on exhibits. The outdoor showroom includes changing exhibits of birds that have been or are being restored, such as a 1909 Martin M-1, a 1944 B-17 Flying Fortress, a 1944 P-38 Lightning, and a 1965 MIG 21. Plan on spending 2 hours. It's interesting and a must for aviation buffs, but the show here is almost entirely visual. Note: The museum sustained hurricane damage in the summer of 2004 and is currently in the midst of rebuilding. At press time, they weren't running actual tours yet, but the museum is open and is currently accepting donations in lieu of an admission fee for those who would like to take a look around.
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.
AmeriSuites Universal
It's tough to beat the value and roominess of these kitchenette-equipped suites, especially if your goal is to be very close to the Universal theme parks without having to pay the heftier rates that come with staying on park property. The modern, spacious rooms allow you to stretch out more than in standard hotel/motel accommodations, and the location is especially convenient if Universal Orlando is your target.
Seralago Hotel & Suites Maingate East
Location (it's just down the road from Disney) and price are just some of the perks at this former Holiday Inn. The revamped hotel sports new colors and a bright new look but still features themed Kid Suites with separate sleeping areas for your tots, as well as standard rooms and regular two-room suites. The rooms provide a reasonable amount of space for a family of five, with the two-room unit sleeping up to eight. There are plenty of family recreational activities, from swimming to tennis, and the hotel's movie theater shows free family films nightly. There's a family-friendly food court, and kids 12 and under eat free (2 kids per paying adult) in the hotel's cafe.Facilities: Restaurant; food court; convenience store; lounge; 2 outdoor heated pools; toddler pool; 2 tennis courts; exercise room; basketball; volleyball; Jacuzzi; playground; arcade; Guest Services desk; free shuttle to Disney parks, transportation to non-Disney parks for a fee; limited room service; laundry service; small movie theater.
Gaylord Palms
It's a convention center in disguise, but the Gaylord Palms appeals to vacationers, too, and is not your run-of-the-mill resort. It could be considered a destination unto itself, offering its own entertainment, fabulous dining, shops, and recreational facilities. The 4 1/2-acre octagonal Grand Atrium, topped by a glass dome, surrounds a miniature version of the Castillo de San Marcos, the old fort at St. Augustine. Waterfalls, lush foliage, and a rocky landscape complete the feel.The resort and its rooms are divided into themes: Emerald Bay, a 362-room hotel within the hotel, has an elegant air; St. Augustine captures the essence of America's oldest city; Key West delivers the laid-back ambience of Florida's southernmost city; and the Everglades uses a misty swamp, snarling faux gator, fiber-optic fireflies, and tin-roofed shanties to muster a wild-and-wooly air. The rooms are spacious, beautifully decorated, and well appointed (the soundproofing, though, could be a bit better); each has its own balcony. The kids' pool features a huge eight-legged octopus waterslide, and cabanas at the adult pool have Internet access. And if you need to unwind further, try the 20,000-square-foot branch of the famous Canyon Ranch Spa. As is befitting a luxury resort, the service is impeccable; yet it's also extremely friendly and welcoming, not standoffish, as is the case at many other resorts of this class.Facilities: 5 restaurants; 4 lounges; golf (nearby); 2 outdoor heated pools; fitness center; spa; supervised children's center; concierge; tour desk; car-rental desk; free transportation to Disney parks; transportation to non-Disney parks for a fee; business center; shopping arcade; salon; room service; massage; babysitting; dry cleaning; concierge-level rooms.
