Resort near Seaworld (Orlando) with zero depth pool
 
Hi,

Does anyone have a recommendation for a resort near Seaworld (in Orlando)?

I am looking for a shallow pool (preferably zero depth) since I will be travelling with a 3 and 4 year old.

The class of hotel should be similar to Hyatt or Hilton.

JW Marriott Grande Lakes.

Very nice kiddie pool with zero entry.

I really liked the Portofino. But, be prepared to open your wallet in a way that doesn't make you feel very good about it. I don't mind spending money. What I don't like is being taken advantage of, which is how I felt at the Portofino.

They charge at least $15 per day for self-parking. Food costs were unreasonably high, when compared to what one would pay at a Disney property.

I think the hotel itself is really nice (we loved the kids suite) but I was left with a feeling that I was being milked.

I might suggest you look at the Polynesian at Disney World. It's only a 20 minute drive to SeaWorld and their pool has a shallow entrance.
