During your Orlando vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:
A World of Orchids
Lovers of horticulture will enjoy touring this conservatory and showroom filled with thousands of orchids -- many of them rare -- that are magnificently abloom at all times and on display as well as for sale (shipping is available). Streams, waterfalls, koi ponds, and birds enhance the grounds. Also on the premises: a nature walk through a wooded area, aquariums of exotic fish, and a small aviary. Allow 1 hour, more if you're gaga over orchids.
Harry P. Leu Gardens
This 50-acre botanical garden on the shores of Lake Rowena offers a serene respite from the theme-park razzle-dazzle. Paths lead through giant camphors, moss-draped oaks, palms, cicadas, and camellias -- the latter represented by one of the world's largest collections: 50 species and some 2,000 plants that bloom from October through March. There are 75 varieties of roses in the site's formal gardens, as well as orchids, azaleas, desert plants, and colorful annuals and perennials. The attraction also has palm, bamboo, and butterfly gardens. Businessman Harry P. Leu, who donated his 49-acre estate to the city in the 1960s, created the gardens. There are $7 guided tours of his house, built in 1888, on the hour and half-hour (advance reservations suggested). The interior has Victorian, Chippendale, and Empire furnishings and pieces of art. Admission is free Mondays from 9am to noon. It takes about 2 hours to see the house and gardens.
Orlando Science Center
The four-story center, the largest of its kind in the Southeast, provides 10 exhibit halls that allow visitors to explore everything from Florida swamps to the arid plains of Mars to the human body. One of the big attractions is the Dr. Phillips CineDome, a 310-seat theater that presents large-format films, planetarium shows, and laser-light extravaganzas. In KidsTown, little folks wander in exhibits representing a miniature version of the big world around them. In one section, there's a pint-size community that includes a construction site, park, and wellness center. Science City, located nearby, includes physics lessons and a power plant, and 123 Math Avenue uses puzzles and other things to make learning math fun. Allow 3 to 4 hours, more if you have an inquiring mind.
SpringHill Suites Orlando Convention Center
Like the Sierra Suites, this property offers another chance to stay near but not in the middle of the I-Drive crowds and traffic. Clean, very spacious suites (about 700 sq. ft., with beds for five and a separate living area) and reasonable rates make this all-suite property worth considering, though you'll have to pay to get to all of the theme parks.
Villas of Grand Cypress
This is an exceptional place to retreat to at the end of the day, though it's definitely a splurge in the budget department. At its "modest" end, this Mediterranean-inspired resort starts with standard-size rooms with Roman tubs and patios, many of them backing up to ponds whose inhabitants include mallards, soft-shelled turtles, and largemouth bass eager for bread crusts or whatever else you can spare. Floor plans progress to elegant one- to four-bedroom villas that reach about 1,100 square feet on the top end. Some include kitchens, dining rooms, and patios. The resort shares a golf club and academy, racquet club, and equestrian center with the Hyatt Regency Grand Cypress Resort . Inside the resort, you're almost completely sheltered from Disney, which is situated only a few hundred yards away. Take some time to wander the lush grounds, which are dotted with lakes, bougainvillea, and hibiscus. There are also walking and jogging trails. Shuttle buses allow you to park your car and get around the resort and to the nearby theme parks without driving. Unlike its sister Hyatt property, this resort caters primarily to adults, but Villa guests with kids can use the Hyatt's childcare and other facilities -- even the pool.Facilities: 2 restaurants; 2 lounges; outdoor heated pool; 45 holes of golf; 12 tennis courts (5 lighted); health club; 2 racquetball courts; spa; watersports equipment; children's center(at the Hyatt); car-rental desk (Hyatt); arcade; concierge; free Disney shuttle, transportation to non-Disney parks for a fee; salon (Hyatt); 24-hr. room service; massage (in-room); babysitting; laundry service; valet; concierge-level rooms.
The Reunion Resort & Club of Orlando
This luxury resort community not just a resort, is still in its early phases (with a completion date set for some 10 years into the future). Currently, only the villas and some vacation homes (both available for rent to visitors) are open. The spectacular villas feature a rather unique layout. Bedrooms are located on the ground level, with the main living area and additional bedrooms on the second level (making it less likely you'll have to drag your luggage up a flight of stairs). Some of the villas have private patios or balconies; some of the vacation homes have their own private pools. Scheduled to open just as this book hits the shelves is an extensive on-site water park (in addition to other resort pools located throughout the property). Two championship golf courses are already operational. A kids program offering a variety of supervised activities is set to begin in 2006 as well. On the downside: The property charges an exorbitantly high "gratuity" fee.
