Sea World Hotels

[TigerLilly's Mom]

We just decided today that we will go to Sea World in a couple weeks! Our kids are 5 and 8, and I think they will have a blast. We did Disney this past Dec., and we had an unbelievable time. I'm going to read past post to get some info, but any tips would be great, as I haven't been since my honeymoon 9 years ago!

My question is about the hotels near Sea World. We are looking for one that has suites and free breakfast and shuttle to Sea World. Any ideas? The kids would love a cool pool - I would love to stay at one of the resorts right across from Sea World, but I don't think they are suite types of hotels. Any advice is much appreciated!

the hilton grand vacation club - across the street from SW is a timeshare - so they have studios, 1, 2 or 3 bedrooms.

I don't think they have a free breakfast.

there is a residence inn - not to far fromSW - they do have a free breakfast

You want to stay at the Renaissance Resort, located directly across from SWF, within walking distance. They have suites.

Stay on club level (10th floor) and you get free breakfast, and snacks at night.
They have a nice pool, hot tub, game room, tennis courts, basketball court, and a play area for kids.
Walking from the resort to SWF is nice. It may cost more than other places, but it's worth it. During holidays, they lower prices, because it's mainly a business resort.
