Let's face it: Orlando and the theme park zones usually crawl with kids. That's fine if you have your own in tow, but if you're looking for some quality adult time (or at least a place not necessarily swarming with children), you do have some options. Some people are incredulous when informed that Orlando is the honeymoon capital of the United States, but it happens to be true; so be assured that there are activities, hotels, and so on that are geared to adults here (though, admittedly, avoiding kids altogether is tough). Aside from the romantic hideaways discussed, here are some good bets for adults:
- Visit Epcot. Of all the major theme parks in Orlando, this one, thanks to its scientific and cultural themes, is the most adult-oriented of the bunch. Shop, stroll, and dine your way through the nations of the World Showcase; take a behind-the-scenes tour of the park's horticulture or architecture; or explore the technological- and scientific-themed attractions of Future World. Just be sure to break in your walking shoes before you arrive!
- Party the Night Away at Universal CityWalk or the Disney Resorts. With the closing of Pleasure Island's clubs for "re-imagining," Universal's nighttime entertainment district is now the place to hang for the 21-and-older set. Top clubs include Pat O'Brien's and the Red Coconut Club. Over at the resorts, in this case Disney's Coronado Springs, Rix is the hottest place to party the night away.
