We will be taking our first cruise in Jan. and plan on staying in Orlando for a couple of days before our cruise. We are in our sixties and hoping to do a little shopping,we will be using uber/lyft to get around or walking if possible. Can anyone suggest a hotel or area that has a Walmart and shopping mall close by?

I would recommend staying in the Waterford Lakes area. There is a Wal-Mart near there and there is the Waterford Lakes shopping area. Outdoor mall with a huge variety of stores and restaurants.

 

You could also stay near the Mall at Millennia or the Florida Mall. Both have Wal-Marts nearish by.

Use Hotels.com...they are great at comparing properties within an area. Where you stay will depend on what you want to do. Just don't BOOK thru them....when you find the hotel that suits you, google it, get the direct phone number and call to book. Don't use a 3rd party!

Not much walking available except downtown, and there is too much construction here now for that. The Florida Mall has a hotel in it, lots of shops, food court and there is a Walmart close by. There is also a Ross nearby which many tourists, as well as we locals, flock to. It sells discontinued (not damaged) lines of clothing and household goods. Discounted luggage is a big seller so they can bring home their purchases. It is also close to the airport.
