Orlando is a very popular destination for families looking for an affordable vacation. Orlando hosts worldwide attractions including Disney World and Universal Studios. In Orlando "there is a lot of competition among vacation destinations trying to get your business," states Destination360.com. This means nearly all packages involving hotels, theme parks and resorts "offer some kind of a deal." A four-day and three-night vacation at the Royal Plaza, for example, may cost as little as $249.
Daytona is another popular Florida destination offering cheap family vacations. Daytona offers appealing spots including sunny beaches and the famed NASCAR Daytona racetrack. "Looking online," promises the Destination 360 site, "will guarantee you cheap packages like an advertised two nights in Daytona where you spend only $99." Many Daytona hotels also offer additional incentives such as "a $50 Ocean Walk Shop gift certificate."
A number of out-of-the-way Florida vacation spots offer just as many attractions--and even better deals. Amelia Island is one of those spots. Islands like Amelia offer seclusion and elegance with many plush rentals at affordable prices for families. In addition to relaxing on the beach, Amelia Island offers golfing, fishing, horseback riding and more. During the summer of 2010, according to Amelia.com, "all properties receive a 20% discount if booked online."
The cheapest family vacation to be had in Florida may very well occur during the "off season". Off season getaways mean vacationing during a less popular time of the year--November or December, for example. A trip to "an upscale resort in Panama City," states Destination 360, may only cost "$99." Indeed, off season travel "is when you can expect to find the most cheap vacation packages to Florida, as demand is down and the supply remains high."
