OP here. Thanks to all who replied.

I'm updating what I found out in case anyone else out there is looking for current information.

Both kosh and backyardbbq are doi g Friday night meals this year. Harbor grill has a takeout package. I have not found any day meals yet.

If anyone has anything to add, please post. Thanks!

Chabbad often has either a large kiddish or a meal. We did that once and then had cold cut sandwiches in our fridge for lunch... (I think they charge for the meal but for the kiddish just a donation)

In Orlando, you can rent a home with a private pool for about the cost of a hotel room.
(in case anyone is going.)

I think we will leave this for another trip, but this sounds great. Do you know how far these homes are from a shul? Kosher food? The parks?

You can drive down to the Florida keys from Miami if you want to do something different this time.

I personally do not reccomend going all the way to the keys. Drive in that direction (it’s the drive that’s pretty) and get a boat out for the afternoon. Bring along a picnic.

The actual keys was super disappointing for us, tacky and nothing to really do there. The drive is beautiful tho.
