Myself, husband and 2 children are flying from Oregon to Florida next month. We’ve never been to Disney World, or even Florida.
We plan to go for 4-5 days but I notice they are having some deals such as "4 days with 3 days free" so we may stay longer. So my question is i’ve researched vacation rental places (not houses, but like condo or apts) that are within 1 mile of DW. They are about the same price about staying at a hotel and they also offer shuttle ride so it seems worth it. But how can I trust which rental site is "the real deal"?
Also, I’ve visited site after site to find best deals, travel zoo has some good deals. Any other good deals???
Another thing, should we travel airbus? Dont know much about them, but they do seem faster. Thank you. Any other tips will help please!!!

The main thing to consider when looking at off-site shuttles to/from the parks is the frequency that they make the trip. There are some that only go to Disney a few times a day and charge for the transportation, as well.
The Disney hotels, however, have free transportation to the Disney theme parks that run every 15-20 minutes from an hour before park opening to about 2 hours after closing. There is no pressure to get to the bus depot extra early for risk of missing the bus and having to wait another hour.
The ‘Buy 4 Get 3′ deal only applies to the Disney hotels and will not work with off-site properties. Also, the dates that the promotion is available for November is 11/1 through 11/18. If you are going after that you will not get that promo.
