The Complete Guide To Planning An Orlando Spring Break Vacation
As the season of rebirth approaches, now is the perfect time to organize a getaway with friends or family in advance that says goodbye to winter and hello to spring. A great getaway requires the right location, and Orlando, Florida is the ideal spot for spring break. Getting the most out of your stay requires setting goals and knowing how the area can help you meet them. You must consider factors such as how long you will be staying, what you will get to do, and who will be traveling with you. With a trip booked at Margaritaville Resort Orlando, your next spring break ensures great memories. Here is the complete guide to planning an Orlando Spring Break vacation.
1. Find A Timeframe
Orlando is home to a variety of attractions and activities that can keep you entertained throughout your spring break. Experiencing as many of these attractions as possible requires taking advantage of all of your vacation time, with a minimum of a week recommended for your retreat. The timeframe of your spring break may also determine what you can do, whether you’re a college student visiting in March or a family visiting in April. Planning your getaway’s start and end date ahead of time will allow you to enjoy the best that Orlando has to offer.
2. Create A To-Do List
Creating memories in your spring break requires a location that offers the right number of attractions and activities, and Orlando is packed with them. With the large number of options available, a proper spring break structure can help you avoid having to choose between activities. Some attractions require the whole day to enjoy, so you can reserve an entire day for them to experience everything they have to offer. Other days on your to-do list can be reserved for multiple activities that only require a few hours to complete.
3. Book Your Resort
Another factor to consider when making the most of your spring break is where you will be staying. Your resort must be close enough to attractions to experience as much as possible, as well as feature amenities to help you relax during your downtime. Staying at Margaritaville Resort Orlando puts you just minutes away from must-see attractions with access to transportation services. Rooms come in different forms for groups of different sizes, and the resort features themed activities and services to help you relax or have fun whenever you feel like staying in.
4. Venture To Theme Parks
No Orlando vacation is complete without a visit to its world-famous theme parks, and spring break allows you to welcome the warm weather of the year with multiple thrills. Each park provides a variety of rides and activities that will require the whole day to experience. Vacationing in Orlando for at least a week gives you time for theme parks at Disney, Universal, and SeaWorld. Attractions come in different forms for travelers of all ages, which offers fun for those who are visiting with their family.

5. Explore The Outdoors
Booking your spring break at Margaritaville Resort Orlando allows you to enjoy unique adventures that are hard to come by outside of Orlando. Those who enjoy outdoor activities and are looking forward to the end of winter will be happy to know that Orlando has activities that can keep them entertained. Make time for an afternoon at any of Orlando’s nature parks for hiking, kayaking, and paddleboarding in beautiful environments. Other parks feature zip-lining and other thrilling activities, and these destinations allow you to get close to manatees, alligators, and other unique wildlife that call Orlando home.
6. Cool Off At Water Parks
Another reason why we recommend a minimum of a week in Orlando for your spring break is to spend a day at any of the area’s water parks. Whether you seek thrills that match Orlando’s popular theme parks or just want to cool off under the sun, these parks have you covered. Options for water parks during your stay include Island H2O Water Park located in Sunset Walk with Margaritaville Resort Orlando, Orlando: Aquatica Water Park, Disney’s Blizzard Beach Water Park, and Universal’s Volcano Bay. At least one day should be saved for water parks to add variety to your trip.
7. Dine In & Out
One of the elements of a vacation that can help you start and end each day right is your choice for unique meals. A spring break at Margaritaville Resort Orlando grants you access to a variety of restaurants for fun breakfasts, lunches, and dinners that are just a walk or short drive away. Head downstairs for a bite at Euphoria Fish House, Provisions, or Salty Rim Bar & Grill. If your group can’t decide where to go for lunch or dinner, the Promenade at Sunset Walk offers Ford’s Garage, Rock & Brews, Anthony’s Coal Fired Pizza, and other restaurants with multiple meals to choose from.
8. Collect Souvenirs
No spring break is complete without a shopping spree, and Orlando does not leave you short on options for fun and unique stores and shops. Whether you want to buy new clothes, toys for your kids, or an addition to your souvenir collection, Orlando has you covered. You can shop at any of the stores in your resort to save time, as well as venture over to The Florida Mall if you have an inactive day on your itinerary. Shopping at theme parks is also easy thanks to Disney Springs and Universal CityWalk.
