Travel with your family back to the 1950s, when drive-ins were all the rage, on a mini golf adventure at Universal Orlando® Resort’s new Hollywood Drive-in Golf attraction, located at Universal CityWalk®. Choose from two classic movie-themed courses: “The Haunting of Ghostly Greens,” inspired by an old drive-in theater monster movie, or “Invaders From Planet Putt,” which follows the style of a classic sci-fi film.
Open for 18 hours every day from 8 a.m. until 2 a.m., the attraction offers you plenty of opportunities to take your best swing at a hole-in-one. You can decide to play either one or both courses, each with 18 unique holes. These are no ordinary putt-putt courses; watch out for some out-of-this-world and spooky surprises, including:
- Hair-raising lighting effects with an eerie glow (best after dark!)
- Squirting water and spraying air to keep you on your toes
- Patience-testing multilevel challenges
- Colorful scenery and entertaining obstacles
Admission is $13.99 for adults and $11.99 for children ages 3-9 to enter one of the courses. Feel free to play one course and come back later with your receipt for a discount on the remaining course. The official website for Hollywood Drive-in Golf is still under construction, but check back soon for updates. Right now, you can view a series of photos on the home page of Universal CityWalk®.

Top Ways Vacation Homes Can Save You Big
on Your Disney Vacation
Besides getting more amenities, more privacy and more room to relax than Disney area resorts and hotels, you’ll also SAVE BIG on your Walt Disney World vacation when you rent an Orlando vacation home.
LODGING
Booking multiple hotel rooms to accommodate your family or group can seriously cut into your Disney vacation budget. Ranging from 2 bedroom condos to 7 bedroom houses that sleep anywhere from 4 to 16 people comfortably, vacation home rentals can save you hundreds – even thousands – of dollars on lodging alone.
Plus, Orlando vacation homes provide all the space you need to stretch out and relax plus the privacy you deserve. Now that’s a value you can’t put a price on!
DINING
Dining at the parks or local restaurants every day can add up fast. Renting a vacation home or condo can save you hundreds of dollars in dining expenses because they have one thing the hotels and resorts lack: fully equipped kitchens. This gives you the freedom to eat when and where you want by making your own meals – all at a fraction of the cost of dining out.
ENTERTAINMENT
Spending money going out to the movies, arcades, water parks and other expensive entertainment venues is another vacation expense you can save on by renting a Florida vacation condo or home.
Many vacation homes feature a host of at-home entertainment amenities like home theatres, game rooms, private pools and spas as well as the latest video game systems (PS3, Wii and Xbox 360). And all of the Disney area resort vacation home rental communities feature both indoor and outdoor entertainment options like club houses with game rooms, fitness centers and movie theatres plus large swimming pools, tennis courts, children’s playgrounds and more!
SPECIAL VACATION SAVINGS & DISCOUNTS
In addition to saving on lodging, dining and entertainment, you’ll save even more when you book your Disney area vacation rental with ALL STAR Vacation Homes. For starters, you’ll receive FREE Walt Disney World ticket upgrades with any reservation. You can even have them delivered to your vacation home free of charge from our partner Kissimmee Guest Services!
And with every reservation, you can receive FREE pool and spa heat plus special preferred golf rates at Mystic Dunes Golf Club! Plus, SAVE 10% off your reservation of featured Orlando vacation homes when you book a 7-night stay with ALL STAR Vacation Homes within the next 90 days!
With so many ways to save on your Orlando Florida Disney vacation, vacation home rentals are, hands down, the best choice!
