Florida beach time in January?
My wife and I will be taking our 10 year old niece to Orlando and Disney in early January 09. We are thinking of adding a few days at the ocean afterwards.
I don't mind driving to Miami or ?????
Is the weather likely to be warmer in the Miami area then than the beaches near Orlando?
I would be looking for a nice beach resort with kid friendly pools etc. without spending much more than $200.00 per night.
Any suggestions?

Yes, you will have to drive south to "guarantee" warm weather in January....West Palm Beach and South on the East Coast...Ft. Myers/Naples on south on the West Coast.
Of course, it could hit 80 in Orlando that time of year.....or hit 40 in Miami/Naples that time of year. But for consistancy, that's the rule.

Probably, but as milemarker0 implies, the weather can be inconsistent and there are no guarantees. January is not normally beach weather, but you could get lucky.

Thanks,
I live in Alberta. I know all about 'guaranteeing' good weather. Anything over 70 F or 20 C would sound good to me at that time of year!
Any hotel / resort recommendations in that area?

To get you started, look into staying somewhere in Cocoa Beach <http://www.cocoabeach.com/>. I wish I could help with specifics but I live 60-70 miles away. We rarely stay there since it is just a short drive home. Perhaps 321go can help?

Thanks VIc,
As I have started thinking about this trip I am getting more interested in spending some time in the Miami area.
I have already been to Cocoa Beach last year.
I think I might like to stay in South Beach.
