Busch Gardens Williamsburg: Need advice on buying tickets, and the resort kingsgate. Thanks
Hello everyone, I am traveling to Williamsburg on Monday August 25, and will be staying at a place called Kingsgate never been there bought this on EBay a 4 night deal, I am just concerned about the place, anyone been there. I am traveling from Boston to Va it will be an 11 hour drive, It will be me and my hubby and 5 kids, Busch Gardens is very expensive, are there better deals when you get around the area, or should I buy the bounce ticket, I would have to buy 6 tickets and that is very expensive. I want my kids to have a good time, I am just worried, any advice My son is only 21 months, and the oldest is 12 years old. Thanks

When we went to Williamsburg back in June, we stayed at the Kingsgate. It was very nice. We had a two bedroom condo with plenty of space and a nice, quiet setting. It also has three nice pools (salt water, not chlorine), a huge video game area, a work out room, and easy access to all the major areas in the Historic Triangle.
We bought the bounce passes for unlimited access to Busch Gardens, Water Country USA, and Williamsburg. We also went to Jamestown and Yorktown (both not to be missed), but bought separate tickets for those events which ended up being cheaper than a package deal that included the two sites.
