When visiting Orlando, the theme park capital of the world, everyone wants to stay at top-of-the-line resorts. But let’s face it, not everyone can afford the hefty nightly rates that come with sophistication and modernity. That’s where the recently-renovated Doubletree Resort Orlando – International Drive comes into play.

Fresh off a $35 million makeover, this 28-acre property, the largest of the Doubletree’s portfolio worldwide, is offering incredibly low grand debut rates starting from just $69/night on select dates through December 22 – so don’t worry about scrounging for pennies to see how the other half lives. Amenities at the 1,094-room resort include three pools, a full-service restaurant, outdoor eateries, casual upscale bar, state-of-the-art fitness center and spa, as well as a children’s game lounge and nine-hole mini golf course.

All guestrooms are furnished with dark-wood furniture, decorated with Indonesian design accents, and feature high-tech amenities like 32-inch flat-screen televisions and iPod-ready clock radios.

As for location, the resort property is centrally located in Orlando and within walking distance to SeaWorld and its new fantastic water park, Aquatica.
