Is LEGOLAND Florida worth adding to your family’s vacation plans? Let’s take a look!

LEGOLAND

We know that vacationing at Disney World is a tried-and-true tradition for tons of families out there. But if you’re normally a “Disney World family,” could switching things up with a visit to LEGOLAND be worth it for you? Here’s what we learned on our recent visit to the park!

Let’s be real, vacation time and budget are precious, and we know just how much pressure there can be to create a great experience for your family. With that in mind, it often feels tough to switch things up, especially when there’s a vacation destination you know your family loves! Which is one reason why so many people keep coming back to Disney World again and again (it’s us, we’re people). If you’re a “Disney family” wondering whether you should take the plunge and visit LEGOLAND the next time you’re in the Orlando area, here are some things to consider!

First, there’s no universally “right” answer as to where you should vacation — the answer to that question will come down to what your family’s top priorities are, and what options best fit your preferences and budget!

The Galacticoaster

One of the most important things to consider when deciding which theme parks to work into your itinerary is the ages of the children you’re traveling with and the types of attractions they’ll enjoy. LEGOLAND was designed specifically for families with children ages 2-12, with more than 50 rides, shows & attractions to experience around the resort. If your kiddos are on the younger side and are too small for lots of the rides at the other parks, LEGOLAND could be a great alternative with plenty of things to do just for them!

Ceremony of the Ninja

It’s also one of the most affordable parks in the area, with LEGOLAND tickets starting from $69 per person per day. Plus, in addition to LEGOLAND theme park and water park tickets, they also offer tickets that come with admission to several other experiences in the area, including the Peppa Pig Theme Park, which is just a 5-minute walk from the LEGOLAND park! Between the LEGOLAND theme park, LEGOLAND water park, the Peppa Pig Theme Park, and the Sea Life Florida Aquarium, families can easily spend multiple days at the resort without repeating experiences.

Welcome to Peppa Pig Theme Park

Speaking of that short walk to the Peppa Pig Theme Park, LEGOLAND was designed to be easily walkable and require minimal transportation. They offer three on-site hotels with family-friendly amenities so you can be within walking distance of all of the attractions during your stay.

Shipwreck Restaurant at Pirate Island Hotel

There are also seasonal events and entertainment for popular holidays like Halloween and Christmas. Plus, since LEGOLAND was designed to meet the needs of families with younger kids, the park’s Halloween “Brick-or-Treat” event is one of the less-spooky seasonal entertainment options around the area.

LEGOLAND Florida

Again, only you can answer the question of “is it worth a visit” based on YOUR family’s priorities and preferences! But if you’re traveling with young children and are looking for a resort with multiple parks and attractions designed for them to enjoy, all within walking distance, LEGOLAND might be right up your alley!
