As evening approaches, consider hopping to Epcot for the International Food & Wine Festival (if visiting in the fall) or exploring World Showcase. Sampling cuisine from different countries is a perfect way to experience the diverse culinary offerings.
Day 3: Relaxation and Recreation
After two action-packed days, enjoy a more relaxed morning. Lounge by the Bay Lake Tower pool, which features a fun water slide and beautiful views of the surrounding landscape. You might also enjoy renting a boat from the nearby marina for a scenic cruise around Bay Lake.

Upon arrival, check into your ocean-view villa at Vero Beach. The resort’s charming, coastal theme immediately puts you in a relaxed state of mind.

In the afternoon, consider a visit to the nearby Sebastian Inlet State Park for some excellent fishing, hiking, or simply to enjoy more natural beauty. After a day of adventure, unwind with a sunset stroll along the beach.
