I went there this week and have some pictures and video for you to take a look at which I will be adding shortly but check out the video below to give you an idea of what to expect.

Fun Spot offers really safe, clean family fun – you can “drive the ride” on the multi-level concrete go-kart tracks, enjoy the thrill of the 100 ft “Revolver” ferris wheel or try the kids carousel. They have two locations, one on HWY192 next to Old Town and the other is on International Drive.

Its free admission and parking too – If you’re not able to make it on the 11th, it’s still great entertainment anytime and makes for a change from the Disney style theme parks.  Fun Spot opens 10am till midnight every day – see the Fun Spot ticket prices

For another similar entertainment park which is close to Fun Spot – check out my post on Old Town Orlando.

If you’re thinking about booking your vacation – we have over 500 luxury Orlando villas available for your perfect holiday – the majority with 360 degree videos of the villas and all homes 15-20 minutes away from Disney and the main attractions. You can also keep updated on Things To Do in Orlando here on this blog.

Hawaiian Rumble mini golf on International Drive and Lake Buena Vista both sites feature a Hawaiian themed 50 foot volcano with fire and lava, lush tropical palms setting and rhythmic calypso beats to entertain you during your game.

Disney Fantasia Gardens mini golf – Disney’s own take on miniature golf located at Epcot has 2 courses: Fantasia Gardens and Fantasia Fairways. These are inspired by the animated Fantasia film and during your 36 hole game you’ll see characters from the movie like the dancing hippos and the marching broomsticks!

Disney Winter Summerland mini golf – another Disney offering of miniature golf outside Blizzard Beach, these are Santa Claus themed courses: the ‘Snow’ course – put your way to the 18th ‘North Hole’!! and in contrast the ‘Sand’ course,  is beach-themed with 18 holes to play amongst sandcastles and surfboards.

Discount vouchers are available for most of the mini golf courses (excluding Disney) in the local coupon/tourist/attraction books that you can get in entrance to most supermarkets, restaurants and tourist information booths.

Nearly all of the mini golf courses are located less than 15-20 minutes from all our Orlando vacation rentals on HWY192, International Drive or just off Interstate 4 (I4) in the main tourist areas.

Pointe Orlando & IMAX Cinema:

Pointe Orlando is a big hit for cinema goers in Orlando, with the popular IMAX experience available on varying blockbuster films. In an IMAX theatre, the projected images are extended to create the illusion that the screen’s boundaries have disappeared and the viewer has a more ‘immersive’ experience of the film.  Pointe Orlando is located at 9101 International Drive – opposite the Orange County Convention Center. Again you’ll find diverse dining, specialty shopping and entertainment here. You will have to pay for parking, but you can get your ticket validated at the cinema.
