The Wyndham-Orlando Resort International Drive

We’re thrilled to be spending our 2023 Coastal Magic at the gorgeous Wyndham-Orlando Resort International Drive. Our room block for registered attendees will be available until January 31st. You will receive a dedicated link when you complete your registration. If you’ll be staying on site with us, please reserve your room by this date to guarantee our discount. After this date, rooms will still be available, but we cannot guarantee a discount. (Rooms are very reasonable, though, even without our discount. 🙂 )

Hurricanes Ian and Nicole postponed our return to Daytona and The Plaza Resort & Spa. Unfortunately, they’ll be closed for a year to repair/remodel after the storms. We’re looking forward to all they”ll have to offer for our 2024 event!

In The Area
(30 minutes or less from the hotel)

Icon Park – Within walking distance of our hotel is this massive entertainment complex that includes “The Wheel” (formerly The Orlando Eye), Sea Life Aquarium, Madame Toussaud’s Wax Museum, Museum of Illusions, shops, restaurants, and more attractions!!

Universal Studios & Islands of Adventure – There are so many Marvel/cool movie/pop culture attractions in this iconic park! (Note – to see ALL of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, you will need the two park pass. Details on their website.) Universal CityWalk is accessible without park admission. If shopping/dining/people watching is your thing. (approx 15 minutes away)

Walt Disney World – Home of the giant mouse and all his friends. One of the most famous theme parks in the world, and a magical place (yes, even for grownups!) to spend the day. For those who prefer retail over roller coasters, Disney Springs is a fun ways to experience some of the shopping/dining/people watching here, without park admission. (approx 20 minutes away)

Medieval Times – Kissimmee – Queen of the Royal Court invites you to travel through the mists of time to a festive celebration where you’ll be in awe of gallant knights and majestic horses. The top knights of our kingdom will battle with brawn and steel to determine one victor to protect the throne. Join us as we feast and raise a goblet to our Queen. (approx 25 minutes away)


Day Trips
(Come a day early, or stay after and play a bit!)



Daytona International Speedway – Home of the Daytona 500. Has various track tours and exhibits daily. (approx 1 hour north)

Historic St. Augustine – The nation’s oldest city. The historic areas are absolutely gorgeous, and there is so much to see and do. Lots of “oldest” sites, walking/riding tours, and “haunted” places to check out! Also, some of the most beautiful beaches on Florida’s east coast. (approx 2 hours north)

Kennedy Space Center – Centerpiece of Florida’s “Space Coast”, this complex houses an interactive history of space exploration and multiple opportunities for hands-on learning. Visitors can tour the grounds alone or with an astronaut guide, and see the launch site for hundreds of shuttles and rockets. (approx 1 hour east)
