Margaritaville Resort & Cottages Orlando 

Fun-filled and fabulous

When an oversized, glittery red flip-flop greets you in the lobby, you know you’re staying somewhere that doesn’t take itself too seriously. This effervescent place brings beach vibes to the centre of Orlando.

There’s always plenty to do at Margaritaville, from quizzes and cabana lounging around the lagoon or resort pools to whizzing around on Surrey bikes or relaxing at the St. Somewhere Spa. Although its roots serving knock-your-socks-off margaritas is in its DNA, it’s welcoming to all ages, and plenty of families stay here, particularly in the resort's one- to eight-bedroom cottages. It’s in the new neighbourhood of Sunset Walk, just a ten-minute drive from Walt Disney World and a ten-minute walk from the super fun waterpark, Island H20.

Why we love Margaritaville Resort & Cottages Orlando

  • Weekends are especially lively, with Island Time around the pool featuring the ‘foam palooza’ and Polynesian-style performances.

  • The resort runs free shuttles to the Walt Disney World theme parks and Universal Orlando Resort; the resort concierge can sort out your tickets if you have not got them in advance

  • It’s got a great pool of its own, but you can walk to Island H20 Water Park in ten minutes if you’re looking for the whole shebang.

  • The rooms feel spacious, laid-back, and fabulously tropical while the cottages are the perfectly private place to retreat to with your family or larger group.

Provisions
A premium marketplace for grabbing quick bites or bits to take with you on a day out.

Provisions Marketplace
It's all about grab-and-go style dining at this casual venue; you can get quick bites such as wraps, salads and sandwiches as well as park snacks for the whole family.

Shark Bites
Sometimes hunger strikes in the evening once many restaurants are closed for the night. That's where Shark Bites comes in - this after-hours snack bar is the go to spot for light bites, ice cream and drinks.

The St. Somewhere Spa is an oasis of sea foam green and oak finishes with skin care, massages, and manicures available.

Fins Up Beach Club's pool features a fantastic lagoon-style swimming pool, soft sand beach and plenty of daily activities, from water balloon challenges to sand art sessions and trivia.

You can hire cabanas, but poolside service is available whether you’re in a cabana or not and there's the Margaritaville Store where you can bag some souvenirs and merch to commemorate your stay. When you’re ready for more, you can rent Surrey bikes and pootle your way through the resort and the Promenade at Sunset Walk beyond (which is also well within walking distance from the resort).
