Four Seasons Resort Orlando Is Now Open
August 5, 2014
Next to a pristine lake in the Florida woodlands, the new Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort combines signature Four Seasons service, amenities and experiences in a resort setting. Luxurious guest rooms, world-class dining, a spa, extensive event space, and options for recreation, fitness and fun are all surrounded by the magic of the Walt Disney World Resort, just minutes from Magic Kingdom Park, Epcot, Disney’s Animal Kingdom Theme Park and Disney’s Hollywood Studios, and close to all of Orlando’s shopping and attractions.
With its location within the residential community of Golden Oak at Walt Disney World Resort, Four Seasons Resort Orlando is just minutes from all the attractions via complimentary Four Seasons motor coaches or private luxury sedans. The onsite Disney Planning Center located on the lobby level is the starting point as Four Seasons guests enjoy myriad benefits and connectivity thanks to the resort’s special relationship with Disney.
The resort’s 443 guest rooms, including 68 suites, are the largest in Orlando, and each has a wide, furnished terrace to enjoy the Florida sunshine and views across 26.5 acres of lushly landscaped grounds, including gardens, lake and golf course. Many rooms also offer unobstructed views of the nightly fireworks at Magic Kingdom Park.
The resort’s five-acre Explorer Island includes a 7,590-sf family pool, beach volleyball, outdoor movie nights on the Starstruck screen and smokehouse barbecue at PB+G, the pool bar and grill. There’s also a lazy river winding around a “ruined” mansion, an expansive Splash Zone with dozens of choreographed water jets, a climbing wall and waterslides, and a video gaming center. The fully supervised Kids for All Seasons program is a complimentary camp for younger guests ages 4 to 12.
Four Seasons Resort Orlando also boasts three onsite Har-Tru tennis courts in partnership with Peter Burwash International, an adults-only pool surrounded by private cabanas and reserved for guests 21 and older, and a 24-hour fitness center.
This fall, Four Seasons will unveil the completely refurbished Tom Fazio-designed golf course, Tranquilo Golf Club. A Certified Audubon Cooperative Sanctuary, the par-71course’s 18 holes unfold through rolling hills.
In addition to PB+G on Explorer Island and Plancha at the golf clubhouse, Four Seasons Resort Orlando includes three additional onsite dining and drinking venues including Ravello Italian restaurant, Lickety-Split coffee shop and Capa, a Spanish steak house set to open in September.
The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Orlando features 18 treatment rooms, including the ultra private couples’ bungalows; the Experience Showers — a journey through water, scent and light effects; the Aroma Design Bar for custom fragrances for treatments or to take home; and a hair, nail and beauty salon.
The 37,750 sf of event space includes a 14,000-sf Grand Ballroom with natural light and two outdoor terraces, the elegant Palm Ballroom, and an array of smaller spaces and outdoor lawns that can accommodate up to 1,000 guests. And for a limited time only, the Great Group Values offer includes savings on golf, spa and more with a minimum of 10 rooms booked per night.
