Welcome back!

Villa v hotel really depends on personal preference, however, I would think with a large party size you'd be better being in the heart of the action, somewhere like International Drive. Get a few suites next to/near each other, that removes the dependency on cars which will become expensive when needing to ferry a big group from one place to the next.

I'm planning my 3rd trip for next year, I've only ever done villa + car so I'm probably not a good source for advice for what you need to know, I just didn't like seeing your post go unanswered
