Conference Site: Orlando, Florida

Welcome to Orlando. We’re the only continuing medical education venue with a permanent presence in Orlando: this means you have an ongoing opportunity to schedule a vacation coupled with a tax deductible learning experience nearly whenever you want.

Once our students join us in Orlando it’s difficult to get them to come to any other site.  Once again, we’ve created an unusually safe and supportive environment for you and your traveling companions. Orlando needs no introduction: it’s the number one vacation destination worldwide, and you’ll be located directly in the center of it all.

Your conference site and host hotel, the Hilton Homewood Suites Resort is located one block off of International Drive, the very epicenter of the community’s tourist and meeting area. You’ll be within walking distance of countless restaurants and shopping, and within no more than twenty minutes form any of the world-class resorts Orlando is famous for.  Shuttle bus service picks up and drops off at our front door continuously every day. And for those with a taste for the beach, the Atlantic coast is only thirty miles away, thus making the thoughts of a post conference Caribbean cruise all the more appealing….

“You are important to us. It took us over twenty-five years of experimentation to find the right hotel property in Orlando to host our meeting with you.
 
It’s been worth the effort.
 
Welcome home, to the Homewood Suites Resort by Hilton. We selected this site for its comfortable lodging and business accommodations, perfect for extended stay vacationers and business travelers. It’s the perfect combination of setting and staff, to make sure that your entire meeting experience is as flawless as it can possibly be. The Homewood Suites Orlando is the year-to-year recipient of Hilton’s highest service awards for guest satisfaction and service. The staff will do whatever it takes to make certain your every need is taken care of, whether it’s assistance with dinner reservations or stocking your room with groceries; getting directions to shopping or special recommendations for entertainment.
 
Everything you’ll want or need is within walking distance here, in the heart of the Orlando Convention Center District on International Drive. It’s the geographic center of the best known vacation destination in the world. All of the major theme parks are from five to twenty minutes away, with free shuttle busses departing and returning throughout the day, every day of the year. But you won’t have to venture outside the front door to be entertained. With a huge pool/whirlpool located in its open-air you’ll be able to relax in the sun in safety and comfort. And the homey main lobby is host to both complimentary breakfast (daily) and social reception every Monday through Thursday evening. Though the hotel has no restaurant on premises, the hotel offers a 24 hour convenience store stocked with everything from food and spirits to the usual snacks and travel necessities. 
 
Wake up every day to a copy of USA Today delivered overnight to your door. Stay in touch with home via the internet: the on-premises business center offers complimentary computer access as well as free fax and copier services. Plus, bring your laptop: there’s free wireless internet access via wireless LAN. And if you’re not equipped with a wireless card, you can check out a wireless modem for free.
 
Remember, if you’re staying on site at our special student rate you’ll be mere steps away from our 24 hour scan lab, located on site. Make your reservations directly with the hotel today: contact the Homewood Sales Department at 407/248-2232.
