I'm from Florida about 40 minutes away from Disney and have been there numerous times, I think the issue is your budget, all of the onsite hotels are suitable for children it just depends how much you want to spend. The allstar resorts are the budget one. If you want high end the Disney Board Walk is higher scale, but there are other hotels that are great like animal kingdom lodge. Also the tickets are expensive and they do have multiple day passes that allow you to go to multiple parks per day with a discount depending on how many days you will be there. They also have a meal plan that will save you money.
