Wyndham Orlando Resort
From the outside, the Wyndham Orlando Resort may look more like a tropical island paradise than a modern urban hotel. The hotel is decorated with lush gardens and still lagoons that create romance even among families and singles. In addition to the lagoons, you'll also enjoy three pools. Other features include a fitness center, jogging trail, sauna, playground, and game room. Shuttle service takes to you to Disney World, Universal Studios and Sea World. Intermediate golfers will enjoy the elevated greens and bunkers at Eaglewood Golf Club just a few miles away.

Loew's Royal Pacific Resort
Nice in the case of this resort means luxury and elegance which begins with the 300-count thread linen. Additional features include 32-inch flat panel TVs in every room, and the selection of quality body care products awaiting you. The Gymnasium is the name given to the fully equipped 5,000-square-feet fitness center. Recreation includes an old-fashioned croquet lawn, beach volleyball courts, and shuffleboard. The swimming pool is more like a large lagoon that sparks beneath tall hanging palms. Be sure not to miss the torch lighting ceremony featuring a fire walker and catch a meal at the Emeril Lagasse restaurant. The Robert Trent Jones signature course at the Metro West Country Club is located just a few miles away.
