The Embassy Suites Orlando – Lake Buena Vista South
is offering participants of the 33rd Annual
Florida Master Gardener Continued Training Conference, a
very special rate of $109.00 per night, with a two-night
minimum required, plus 12.5%
state and local taxes, for up to 2 people in a room ($10 for
each additional person per night). The group rate will be
honored three days prior and three days following the
conference dates, based on availability. In order to receive
the special discounted group rate you must state that you

[No other special room rates will apply].
Please note: A cooked-to-order breakfast
(6:30am-9:30am weekdays) and nightly Manager's Reception
(5:30pm-7:30pm) is included in the room rate.
NOTE:
The guest room block and group rate that has been negotiated
with the hotel includes costs incurred to provide us with
the large quantity of meeting space we require for our
meetings. If we do not occupy a sufficient amount of guest
rooms throughout the meeting, we will incur additional costs
for meeting room rental charges. Therefore, we encourage all
meeting participants to stay in the host hotel.
Consequently, guests not staying at
the Embassy Suites Orlando-Lake Buena Vista South Hotel during the conference
will be charged a $100 facilities fee to cover their portion
of meeting room rental charges incurred.
