Hand on heart, I love Disney. I love Disney films. I love Disney characters. I also love Florida. So this is pretty much match made in heaven time for me.
There's several different Disney parks in Orlando - Magic Kingdom, Aninal Kingdom, Epcot, Downtown Disney, MGM studios and the water parks being the main ones.
Magic Kingdom is the famous one, with the castle, plenty of rides and shows, real good mix of adult rides and stuff for the kids.You can have character breakfasts, there's the daily parades (the night one is awesome and the fireworks are fantastic) and various other things going on.
Animal Kingdom is split into Africa and Asia, has safaris, rides and characters. Epcot has different 'lands' set round a lake - the UK has a pub, red phone boxes and plays host to Beatles tribute bands. There's a few rides and fireworks every night.
The water parks are pretty good, lot's of slides. MGM is OK, fair few shows and some rides - perhaps some of the shows are more for kids.
Downtown Disney is more for adults, with bars, shops and restaurants. Most hotels have shuttles to the Disney parks so they are easy to get to, or you could rent a car. Disney certainly isn't cheap and it's one of the most tiring holidays around. Disney is very corporate and yes, agressively marketed. The parks can also get very busy, but a lot of effort has gone into Disney, the fireworks are great, the rides are good, everywhere has different costumes and it really is a great experience - old or young!
Florida itself has great weather (avoid hurricane season!), loads of places to go and very cheap 'all you can eat' restaurants. I would really recommend it - OK it's not as cheap as a week in Majorca but there's plenty of deals and you only live once!
