Getting from Orlando International Airport (MCO) to Kissimmee is straightforward, and the drive takes about 30 minutes in normal traffic. Here is everything you need to know about driving directions, rental cars, rideshare, and shuttle services.
Driving Directions from MCO to Encore at Reunion West
There are two main routes from Orlando airport to Encore at Reunion West. Both take roughly 30 minutes depending on traffic.
Route 1: Via I-4 West (Free)
- Exit MCO and follow signs to the 528 West (Beachline Expressway).
- Merge onto I-4 West toward Tampa.
- Take Exit 55 for US-27 South toward Haines City.
- Turn left onto US-27 South.
- After about 2 miles, turn right onto Reunion Boulevard.
- Follow signs to Encore at Reunion West and proceed to 450 Burma Road.
Pros: No tolls on I-4. Cons: I-4 traffic can be heavy, especially during rush hour and around the Disney exits.
Route 2: Via FL-417 South (Toll Road)
- Exit MCO and follow signs to FL-417 South (Central Florida GreeneWay).
- Continue on FL-417 South, which becomes FL-429.

- Follow signs to Encore at Reunion West and proceed to 450 Burma Road.
Pros: Often faster and less congested than I-4. Cons: Tolls apply (approximately $3 to $5 each way). Most toll plazas are cashless, so make sure your rental car has a SunPass or toll transponder, or expect a toll-by-plate charge.
Rental Car Tips
A rental car is the most convenient option for exploring the Kissimmee and Orlando area. Here are some tips:
- Book early for the best rates, especially during peak season (summer, holidays, and spring break).
- Ask about toll transponders. Many rental companies offer SunPass or a similar device for a daily fee. Alternatively, you can purchase a SunPass Mini at most gas stations and Publix stores for about $5.
- Consider an EV. If you rent an electric vehicle, 450 Burma has a Tesla EV charger right at the house, so you can charge overnight for free while you sleep.
- Free parking at the house. 450 Burma has a spacious driveway with free parking, so you will never pay for overnight parking like you would at a hotel.
Rideshare Options (Uber and Lyft)
Uber and Lyft both operate at MCO and are a popular choice for families who do not want to rent a car.
- Pickup location: Follow signs at MCO to the designated rideshare pickup area on Level 2 of the Terminal C garage.
- Estimated cost: $25 to $45 one way to Encore at Reunion West, depending on demand and time of day.
- Estimated time: About 30 minutes.
- Tip: If you have a large group or lots of luggage, request an Uber XL or Lyft XL for a larger vehicle.
Keep in mind that without a car, you will need to use rideshare for everything during your trip, including getting to the theme parks. This can add up quickly for a week-long stay.
