It varies. We were down there in March and although we got hot walking around the parks,the pool at the Disney resort was a bit chilly. We went in anyway.

The pool temperature will probably be a little too cold. Have you thought about asking them to turn on the pool heating ready for your arrival? It would be worth the surcharge to allow you to have use of the pool.

Normally one of the two Disney waterparks will be closed for refurbishment at this time of year (it alternates which one).

We go every other Feb (and are going begining Feb 2008 too) - it always seems to be Typhoon Lagoon that has been closed in the past.

When we went in Feb 2006 we got sunburnt whilst at Blizzard beach !

Yes, you will need pool heating for a private villa - but if you are going to any waterparks the water will be lovely and warm !

On the whole weather can be variable but we have always been lucky and come back with suntans !

Its usually cool in the early morning and in the evening ...but it can be hot in the day...layers are best , but mainly we find t shirts for the day and a fleece for the evening.

Pack a packamack in case, and hope you don't need it !

Yippee - just did some research and found out that Typhoon Lagoon will be open Feb 2008 , and Blizzard Beach will be closed for refurb. :lol:

It will be nice to try TL for a change :lol:

Pity we don't go in March 2008 though - there is a huge new waterpark called Aquatica opening near Sea World (non Disney) - it will have the very latest in waterpark thrills....but you never know ..sometimes these places do 'soft' openings before their official opening dates...so look out for more information nearer the time. :wink:

Usually it will be getting dark around six o'clock in the evening at that time.

Temperature can be a bit fickle and variable around that time of the year. Most times rather than not, it would be a wise thing to ask the villa owner to arrange for pool heat for your arrival. As mentioned above, it's worth the additional charge. If you elect not to do so but discover the pool water is really too cool for your taste, it will still take a day or so for the pool to warm up if you change your mind. So why waste the opportunity to enjoy the pool on your arrival?

Have lots of fun!

Wet & Wild should still be open, but reports are that it is getting increasingly run down...most probably due to the fact that it has the same owners as Aquatica ..so obviously this will be replacing it eventually, if not immediately ? :?:

It gets dark between 6pm - 7pm early Feb - ideal for the fireworks and any illuminated parades...which take place during the evening in many of the parks.
