Cheap Tampa hotel and travel tips

5 new muscular roller coasters for 2011

By Derek Brown Stomach turning, scream inducing and heart racing roller coaster rides are as much of a summer tradition as barbecues and beaches.  Every year there’s a race to build faster, more exhilarating and technologically-advanced rides.  From coast to coast, 2011 is no exception. The following 5 new rides are worth their weight in steel:
  1. Cheetah Hunt at Busch Gardens in Tampa
  2. Dare Devil Dive at Six Flags over Georgia
  3. GREEN LANTERN Extreme at Six Flags Great Adventure
  4. GREEN LANTERN: First Flight at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Los Angeles
  5. SUPERMAN: Escape from Krypton at Six Flags Magic Mountain in Los Angeles
Related resources Derek Brown, a member of the Orbitz editorial team, broke his roller coaster teeth in on the now removed Python at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay.

5 free things to do in Tampa

With the calendar creeping into May, many of us are in full-on summer vacation planning mode. In previous years, cheap Orlando hotels lured us to Disney World, the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and Universal Studios, but a cheap Florida vacation doesn't have to involve one more trip to see Belle and Jasmine. Call it the Tampa secret. Just an hour from Orlando off I-4, Tampa is equal parts familiar and unexpected, pretty and gritty. Pass the bank of strip malls and strip clubs – yes, there's no glossing over it – to find neighborhoods dotted by Spanish-style bungalows, sprawling homes on Bayshore Boulevard and fairly recently, the mega mansion built by one very famous New York Yankee.

Fall in love with these cheap Florida hotels

Fall is hands down my favorite time of year to visit Florida. Temperatures drop, rates drop, and the crowds thin out. Each fall we spend a few weekends exploring new Florida beaches and attractions with our friends and kids. These are some of the best cheap Florida hotels we’ve found on our fair weather Florida adventures.
