  • Looking for accommodation with free shuttles and i've found this on a website called Bookit.com. Has anyone heard of this site and are they reliable and is it safe to book with them.

    Also can anyone identify the hotel with this description.

    Thanks

    Have you tried holiday autos?, always a 10% code floating around the net somewhere....I got 16 days from south beach in Miami for 200 quid.
  • Hi,
    Have you got any good suggestions for a combined holiday near Orlando? We will fly to and from Orlando but would want to spend a few days elsewhere ( beach, anything interesting?), a 1-2 hours drive from Orlando
    Thanks

    The Gulf Coast would fit the bill - somewhere like Clearwater, St Petes or Sarasota? Clearwater is 90 minutes from the Disney area, St Petes slightly longer and Sarasota just over two hours. All have beautiful beaches (talcum powder sand) and you could combine with a trip to Busch Gardens?

    Thanks. Will the sea be warm enough in mid-end October?
    Has anybody been to the Bahamas Bay resort, is it any good?
    It’s on lake Davenport – how far is it from the parks?
    What is it to do on the lake Davenport itself?
  • Hi
    Any recommendations for hotels for non-drivers.

    Want some free shuttles to parks, don't mind using the Lynx to disney but not for the late nights.

    Does anyone know how much a hotel shuttle to Disney costs.

    Also how much is a breakfast at Sizzler, Ponderosa etc.
