Orlando is the heart of Florida Holidays and the main gateway to the state’s world-famous theme parks. It is the most popular choice for UK visitors, offering a wide range of hotels, resorts and family attractions all within easy reach.
Orlando is home to some of the biggest entertainment complexes in the world, including Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Orlando Resort, as well as shopping districts, water parks and entertainment dining areas.
Walt Disney World Resort is Florida’s most iconic holiday experience, featuring four theme parks, two water parks and dozens of themed resorts. It is one of the most visited holiday destinations in the world and a top choice for families travelling from the UK. Visitors can enjoy immersive attractions, live entertainment, character experiences and themed dining across Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom.
Universal Orlando Resort offers a more thrill-focused theme park experience, featuring blockbuster rides, immersive lands and movie-themed attractions. It is especially popular with teenagers, adults and film fans. The resort includes Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure and Volcano Bay water park, with the highly anticipated Epic Universe expansion adding even more demand for 2027 and beyond.
Miami combines vibrant city life with world-famous beaches, luxury hotels and a strong Latin American influence. It is ideal for travellers looking for a more cosmopolitan Florida experience away from the theme parks. Popular areas include Miami Beach, South Beach and Downtown Miami, offering nightlife, shopping, Art Deco architecture and waterfront dining.
The Florida Keys are a chain of tropical islands stretching from the southern tip of Florida, known for crystal-clear waters, coral reefs and a relaxed island atmosphere. Key West is the most famous destination, offering sunsets, historic streets and waterfront bars. This region is ideal for couples, road trips and travellers looking to combine beach relaxation with scenic drives along the Overseas Highway.
Tampa and Clearwater Beach on Florida’s Gulf Coast offer some of the best beaches in the United States, with soft white sand, calm waters and family-friendly resorts. Clearwater Beach is consistently ranked among Florida’s top coastal destinations. Tampa also offers a mix of culture, sports, shopping and waterfront dining, making it a great alternative or add-on to Orlando stays.
Naples and the wider Gulf Coast region are known for upscale resorts, peaceful beaches and a more relaxed Florida experience. This area is popular with couples and travellers looking for luxury stays, golf resorts and quieter surroundings. Naples in particular offers beautiful sunsets, high-end dining and access to wildlife areas such as the Everglades.
Walt Disney World Holidays offer more than just a theme park experience, they are an opportunity to create magical memories families will treasure for a life time. With Value, Moderate and Deluxe Resorts to choose from, their is a Disney Holiday experience and price to suit everyone. Walt Disney World Holidays are popular popular with families, first-time visitors and multi-generational holiday groups (think grandparents!). We recommend allowing a minimum of 10 -14 nights to enjoy the Walt Disney World theme parks to fullest!
Universal Orlando Holidays are a popular choice for teenagers, adults and families with older children. We find families often opt for Universal Orlando Holidays after having visited Walt Disney World for many year and they want to experience some BIG thrills.
This is the most popular choice among uk travellers as it allows for families to experience the best of both worlds! Spend time at both a Disney and Universal hotel to enjoy the exclusive benefits like early theme park entry to their respective theme parks, and be fully immersed in the Disney Magic and Universal bubble!
SeaWorld Orlando is a marine-life and attraction park offering a mix of animal encounters, rollercoasters and live shows. It is often included as part of multi-park Florida itineraries and appeals to families looking for an additional day of entertainment during their Orlando stay. SeaWorld is also conveniently located close to other major Orlando attractions, making it easy to combine with Disney and Universal visits.

Orlando is especially suited to families, offering easy access to Walt Disney World, Universal Orlando and a wide range of attractions for all ages.
Villa holidays in Florida are ideal for families and groups looking for more space, privacy and flexibility during their stay. Most villas are located in the Orlando area, offering private pools, self-catering facilities and easy access to major theme parks. This option is particularly popular for longer stays and repeat visitors who prefer a home-from-home experience.

Fly drive holidays are a great way to explore Florida beyond the theme parks, giving travellers the freedom to discover beaches, cities and natural attractions at their own pace. Popular routes include Orlando to Miami, the Gulf Coast and the Florida Keys. This type of holiday is ideal for those who want to experience more of the state in a single trip.
Twin centre holidays combine Florida with another major destination, creating a varied and memorable USA holiday experience. Popular combinations include Orlando and the Caribbean, or Florida and New York City. These itineraries are perfect for travellers looking to mix theme parks, city breaks and beach relaxation in one holiday.
The best time to visit Florida depends on what specifically you are looking for. For cheap Florida holidays, the best time to visit will be in May / June / September and avoiding peak school holiday dates. The summer months (July / August) is Florida's hottest and wettest time of year, and there can be hurricanes (however each year this weather pattern gets less predictable), but this also allows for cheaper Summer Holidays to Florida if you travel at the end of August.

The best time to visit Florida depends on what you are wanting from your Florida holiday. For warm sunny weather, March to June is the best time to plan your holiday for, if you are looking to maximise your family holiday in Florida then we advise booking during the Summer School Holidays so you can enjoy a longer timer period (usually 21 nights), or if you are looking for the cheapest time to visit we suggest end of august for families and May / June/ September for couples or families with older children.
We recommend a minimum of 10-14 nights for your Florida holiday to really enjoy everything that is on offer - especially if you are wanting to visit both Disney and Universal in one trip. If you are wanting to enjoy both the theme parks and Gulf Coast, we'd suggest 21 nights to make sure you are not rushed!
Yes! Florida is one of the best locations for families to visit in the world! There is so much to do and see from the iconic Walt Disney Worlds Attractions to mini golf, go-karting, arcades, beaches, and so much more!
Neither Disney or Universal is 'better' it's more about what you are looking for - if you want family fun and magical memories then you'll likely prefer Disney, if you want big thrills and immersive rides then you'll prefer Universal Orlando. Top Tip - enjoy both on a Disney and Universal split stay holiday!
