You have a number of options open to you when visiting Disneyland, Orlando, Florida with regards to accommodation. Many people choose to stay in hotels, motels or villas that are situated close to all the attractions that this popular resort has to offer. Whilst others prefer to actually be right where the action is and staying at one of the Disneyland hotels instead.

The biggest benefit to be gained from staying at one of the resorts hotels rather than those that are located close by is easy accessibility to all the attractions. Staying at one of the Disneyland hotels allows you to visit the attractions at times which suit you.

Certainly a Disneyland holiday is the perfect family holiday as there is plenty of things to keep everyone amused. Along with the four many theme parks (Epcot, Magic Kingdom, Hollywood and Animal Kingdom) there are the two water parks (Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon).

If you intend to spend time at Disneyland Animal Kingdom to take in the safari it is best if you do this first thing in the morning, just after the park has opened. This will ensure that you actually get to see more of the animals which have made this part of the park their home. Often by mid morning because of the temperatures getting very high many of the animals will seek shelter from the sun and so actually spotting the animals can be very difficult indeed.

Booking any of the Disneyland accommodation is best done well in advance of your holiday dates to ensure that you get the accommodation that you want. Plus this is even more crucial if you intend to visit the resort right at the height of the summer season.

Be aware that it rains frequently in Orlando during the summer months and when it does all the rides will be stopped for safety reasons. Certainly, there have been times when people have been preparing to go on some of the most spectacular rides only to discover that they need to queue up again later because the rides are closed because of the weather.

But it is not only the mechanical rides which will stop during the bad weather also those that you can enjoy at the two water parks as well. So it is important that you come up with other things to do and see when the weather does turn a little inclement during your stay.

When it comes to enjoying the rides at Disneyland, Orlando there are certain things one can do to make sure that you don’t stand in queues for hours on end. If you are staying at one of the resort hotels having a pass card allows you to opt to book a slot to go on the rides at a certain time in the day and this means you just wander straight in at that time and get on the ride.
