Best hotel ever! magical place. Gardens with cascades, lakes , fish and crocodiles ! Near disney. Food quite expensive but the hotel is amazing! Dont miss the christmas ice show! They do it every year!

Leena

There is a large children's pool with a massive video screen where they play family friendly movies on select nights, and there are water slides and a variety of water toys for the kids to enjoy.????it

Super Dad

Great business hotel . Also, not a bad way to combine a business trip with a family trip to Disney! Tip: Checkout the Alligator feeding schedule.

Johanne Caglianone

Great family place ! Food expensive but good, so bring snacks and wine to hang out in the room! The movies by the pool at night is awesome!

Damian Bayona

Cool gator pond in the center atrium . Rooms are spacious but basic. Food is very pricey . Expect lots of convention goers. Spa is the highlight with free access for Marriott Gold members.

Portál Penguin

Mind blowing atrium all under glass! Have a walk through each themed alcove from swamps to pirate ships. Always a memorable stay, and a refreshing place to return in between a full day of conferences .

Brian Strauss

Great if you love to see people taking pictures of indoor plants. I don't know, Gaylord properties scare me. I always feel like I'm trapped in the Truman Show.

Ashley Haines

This resort is as huge as it is beautiful. There's really no need to ever leave as there are several restaurants and stores on the premises. If you love sushi , you have to go to Sora.

Richard Revilla

Amazing hotel with a huge water park restaurant abound and excellent staff . It's a Gaylord so your experience will be awesome.

Brandie Manuel

Loved it here! The Villa de Flora was yummy, the show at Christmas time was awesome, and the gators are adorable. Oh yeah, bring your swimsuit!

Rick Hose

This is a Must See!!! The atrium ,, and it is FREE!! Got to love that. And the Ice at Gaylord show. It is very cool !!!COLD

Julia Forsyth

Great hotel , very clean rooms which is what I love about this being a Marriott property now. Great pool area for kids, and beautiful flowers and gardens inside.

Delightful Dee

Beautiful ambience all over. Eucalyptus steam room at spa is wonderful. Restaurant in sail boar is great, arugala prawn salad=healthy & delicious. Service is very slow at the Cantina, went there 2x.

c contreras

This is an incredible place to stay and spend some quality time with family and friends. Excellence convention facilities

Beverly Hills

Take a note on the DreamWork character times, fun photo opps for the young and younger ;0). For the Adults that need some lap and me time there is a poolside for you.

Kelsey Martin

Beautiful resort . Here for a convention but there are many restaurants and things to do between lectures!

Noelle Mena

Here for FPEA convention . Have stayed many many weekends here. Always balcony atrium view . ST Augustine is fav. Key West is loud . Hotel is awesome. Love it.

Many locations on property that would provide a stunning platform for a wedding. For an outdoor ceremony, consider the "Event Lawn" which is open and airy and surrounded by tropical landscaping.

Zulkeira R. Stefchak

Villa de Flora brunches are really good! Only negative note is they do no include and champagne or mimosas which most other brunches around town do. Great food though!

Taxi Transportation

Very good hotel near Disney Orlando and taxis near www. Taxi in Orlando. Com

Leslie Cameron

Ask for an internal view room if you want a balcony to sit on and a view of the courtyard ......external room will give you an outside view and no balcony .....

Irela Maidolly Rivera

This place is AMAZING! And the Ice exhibit during the winter is fantastic!

Gregorio B.

Beautiful resort with a lot of amenities and entertainment, however lack luster customer service as well as poor management make it really difficult for me to recommend.

Nikita Sumner

Awesome green space! Must visit Wreckers ... especially if There's a big game on!!

Alessandro Scotti

Huge hotel . Nice, quiet . Excellent for conferences . Close to Disneyworld.

Royal

If you're looking for late night delivery food to this awesome hotel , try flippers in Old Town . Great food!

Lorri Hughes

Sam HaveSippy

Emerick Werfe

Get a whole bunch of friends and rooms and come have fun, you'll have a blast, as long as you have fun, and just kid around and joke

A L

Wonderful hotel , and close to Disney. The family pool is EXCELLENT - fun for both kids AND parents. We will be coming back.

Jase Payne

If you are the age of 13-17 you are stuck in no mans land. You can't go to the gym or the adult pool . The kid pool is to kidish so u wouldn't want to go there.

Matt Ferrari

Checkout the alligators ! They keep them in the hotel , which is massive by the way.

Nice fun facility. Perfect set up for families.

Moe Dexler

Try to stay on the first floor. Much easier to get around and avoid waiting for elevators .

julie casey

The pool areas are amazing. One for kids, one for adults only, and servers that come to your chairs.

Royal

Just left here... Yet another wonderful time in a splendid place. Love the new gator and turtle exhibit !

Eldon Brathwaite

Have the Mediterranean buffet at Villa de Flora . It's so affordable and the food is exquisite.

March 31st Wrestlemania weekend! #Florida's first pro wrestling dinner show! http://www.manorprowrestling.com limited seating tickets going fast!

E Birdshaw

Phillip is the best waiter for brunch !

Wilson Favre-Delerue

Everything that a convention hotel usually is: soulless, drab and ridiculously overpriced. Particularly unnerving: in-room dining charges a mandatory gratuity of 20% AND a 21% service charge. Insane!

Angele Mire

Ice was awesome! Especially if you buy discount tickets for the Give Kids the World fundraiser day. It was 58.00 for my family of 5.

Debi Lander

ICE Is an annual event and must see. So cool for Floridians!

Kev H

Club sandwich is tasty. Homemade chips were an unexpected and tasty surprise.

Eldon Brathwaite

Be sure to walk through this massive hotel to see the wildlife and all the fine dining restaurants .

Ouriel Attal

Good location and classy resort

Maria Pellini

Great view from room and great comfort. The coffee in the room I would wait before drinking and go downstairs to purchase somewhere else-fyi
