I'm looking to have two children's car seats delivered to our resort, for us to use during our stay. The rentals at the airport are really expensive. Has anyone ever found a place that does this? Thanks!

We took our own with us for that very reason. We carried onto airplane. When small they rode in their standard car seat, a bit older their booster seat. No charge. Or have a booster delivered via Amazon to resort. Rent the car from one of many car rentals on property and just Magical Express to resort and pick up car upon arrival. Options.

Apparently there are several places in the area that will do that for you, with delivery. A google search for car seat retals in the Orlando area listed these just on the first page alone:

I have no idea how reliable these are, but I'm sure you could find out. Have a great vacation!
By the fact that you are say the rentals at the airport are expensive then I'm assuming you are getting a rental car. If that is the case you just drive to the Walmart on the way and pick up the car seats there. Just go to Walmart online now before your trip and make sure the cheapest car seats they have are in stock at that Walmart if not then order them in time for them to be ready for pickup at that Walmart when you get there. If you are looking for a booster seat then it would cost about 20 dollars for the cheapest ones, a cheap car seat would be up to about 40 dollars. But even then that is cheaper than you'll find for a week long stay at the cheapest rental shop. For example in the list a poster provided the cheap booster seat is 5 dollars a day to rent, the same seat is available for purchase at Walmart for 17 dollar which is about 20 dollars when you add in the sales tax. So if your staying for more than 3 days you are better off just buying the seat and throwing it away when you leave. The rates for the next level of car seat with built in harness is 8 dollars a day, while Walmart has one for 32 dollars right now on clearance... so here the break even point is 4 days and not three.
And if you don't want to just throw them in the trash then drop them off at a Goodwill when you are driving back to the airport and then you can take off the price as a donation on your taxes.
