MAY IN ORLANDO
If you missed the spring break rush, congratulations—you’ve hit the Orlando jackpot. May is widely considered the “sweet spot” of the Florida calendar. The weather is spectacular, with plenty of sunshine and temperatures reaching that perfect mid-80s mark, and the heavy summer humidity is still just a rumor. From galactic celebrations to floral masterpieces, May offers a world-class lineup of events. Best of all, Regal Oaks is keeping the savings rolling so you can enjoy a lower upscale retreat without the luxury price tag.
