Recession - Not for Orlando Vacation Homes

Well, its the end of the first week in January - peak booking season for vacation rentals. I wasn't sure what to expect to be honest. The press and TV news is full of gloom and despondency but despite all that, we have had our best ever week securing 17 weeks of bookings for one property alone! Its interesting also that despite the strength of the Dollar relative to the British Pound, there are still many, many enquiries for Orlando Vacation Homes from Great Britain. Perhaps its not quite as bad a picture as we have been led to believe!

SeaWorld Raises Ticket Prices

SeaWorld Orlando raises ticket prices by $5 to $74.95

SeaWorld Orlando is raising the price of its basic theme-park ticket by $5 next month -- its third price increase in little more than a year.

The new price of $74.95, announced Friday, places the standard one-day adult SeaWorld ticket just a nickel below similar one-day, one-park tickets sold at Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando.

Happily other ticket prices have not been raised so the 2 day ticket is still pretty good value! Take a look at our article on How to Save $1000 on your Disney Vacation for more savings!

This so much fun! Just like a trip to Disney!



Orlando Vacation Homes and Villas

Its Going To Be a Great Year

I really think that 2009 is going to be a really good year for Orlando vacation home rentals! We are already booked pretty much solid till April and the enquiries are pouring in for later in the year.

I can't say I'm too surprised though. I mean with the media tring to tell us that the end of the world is just around the corner, you'd want to take one last vacation to Disney wouldn't you?? It is the 'happiest place on earth' after all!

Not only that, people are finally realising that when they go to Disney, its much more economical to have a vacation home rather than a hotel. Sure, you need to rent a car to get around but gas is cheap again and it means that you are not a 'Disney prisoner' limited to the restaurants that the transportation system will take you to.

With vacation rental rates from less that $75 per night for a complete home its not surprising that people are looking seriously at orlando vacation homes for their accommodation needs.
