"Then, we realized we could have a nearly 2,000-square-foot luxury villa at the Villatel Orlando Resort for about the same price per person. After taxes and resort fees, the villa came to about $453 a night, or $227 each. The villa felt like it'd give us way more bang for its buck, especially once we factored in perks like a private pool, full kitchen, and in-unit laundry."
"My best friend ended up having to cancel on the trip, but I decided not to downsize my accommodations. The villa is a bit of a splurge for a solo traveler, but it sounded too good to miss. Fortunately, what could have been a sad and lonely trip turned out to be a luxurious - and not to mention freeing - solo travel reset I didn't know I needed."
I stayed in a four-bedroom villa at Villatel Orlando Resort for about $453 a night, which split to $227 per person when planned with a friend. The villa offered a private pool, a full kitchen, and in-suite laundry, and the resort included a water park and complimentary shuttles to Universal Studios and Disney World. Comparable hotels near the parks had basic rooms costing $160–$250 per night, making the nearly 2,000-square-foot villa strong value. My friend canceled but I kept the villa, turning a potential solo trip disappointment into a luxurious and freeing solo-travel reset.
