My name is Marquita Straus, an IBCCES Certified Autism Travel Professional, and content creator for Tribe on a Quest specializing in family & special needs travel. Tribe on a Quest is a traveling family with a passion for exploration and learning. We focus on topics relating to travel, parenting, Autism/SPD/ADHD, worldschooling, and more. Our mission over the past 5 years has been to show families with small children that adventure doesn’t have to stop when you enter parenthood or receive an Autism diagnosis.
Today I’m sharing the ultimate hotel guide for DoubleTree by Hilton at SeaWorld so that you and your family can enjoy this IBCCES Autism Certified Center property. From arcade-style games to board games, there was a little something for each of the girls to enjoy during our stay at DoubleTree by Hilton at SeaWorld. The kids’ club also offers on-site mini-golf, a full-sized pool table, a foosball table, ping pong, and a king-size checkers board for hours of outdoor family fun together! Guests of DoubleTree by Hilton at SeaWorld have access to two on-site swimming pools, as well as a shallow pool for the little ones to enjoy too.
While any Disney trip you book will be wonderful, I’m going to share why you should spend your fall break at Walt Disney World! And if you love all that Autumn has to offer, you need to spend your fall break at Walt Disney World! Let me start by saying that if you’re less Halloween focused and more Christmas inclined, plan your trip for late November. Both Disneyland and Disney World have ride overlays that are Halloween themed and aside from the Haunted Mansion overlay, these special features are only available at the Halloween Parties.
Located along the Gulf Coast in Biloxi, Mississippi, the Beau Rivage Resort & Casino is less than a 6-hour drive from Atlanta and is the perfect destination for kids! The kids loved alternating between splashing around in the pool and lounging by the pool jamming to the hits that were playing. Our view gave us a beautiful view of the Gulf as well as a bird’s eye view of the pool deck. While the pool deck does offer umbrellas, the pool itself is not covered and the sun mixed with pool time and no sunscreen is a recipe for a sunburnt disaster.
Typically, spending only a few days at the parks will cost your family more money, as Disney offers “discounts” on park admission the longer your vacation is. While I am not one for telling people what to do with their vacation time, I will strongly advise against visiting Disney during peak season if you want to have an enjoyable vacation. Disneyland’s parks are within walking distance of each other, so you won’t need the bus system to park hop, however, it is great for getting back and for to your hotel after a long day. If you are looking to plan a Disney vacation, but aren’t interested in staying on property or just want some general advice, I also offer planning services and Disney trip consultation services.
