Get Back into your Golden Rhythm at Four Seasons Orlando
“All I mean is that I was very young in New York, and that at some point the golden rhythm was broken, and I am not that young anymore,” the late Joan Didion famously wrote in her 1967 essay “Goodbye to All That”, capturing the essence of every New Yorker’s predicament – while you might not be ready to pack up permanently, most of us can at least relate to the sentiment that a little vacation never hurt anybody, and the warm weather and endless activities in Orlando might be the best penicillin this season.
Nestled in a secluded, residential setting within 26 sprawling acres, Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort is a AAA Five Diamond Resort featuring five-star dining, a serene spa and scenic surroundings which are sure to make your stay as magical as the nearby theme parks. From a relaxing couple’s retreat to a family-friendly getaway, a trip to this stylish yet laidback property offers something for even the most discerning traveler.
In the Park View Room, you can wake up to your outside view of the lush greenery surrounding the Four Seasons Golf and Sports Club. Kickstart your morning on a high note at the casual Ravello, where you can indulge in freshly brewed coffee, or enjoy a Truffle Forager Omelette while spending some quality time with Goofy & His Pals at the character breakfast offered every Thursday and Saturday.
After an energizing morning, head to Explorer Island, the resort’s private five-acre water park, where family-friendly fun abounds, or tune into your inner senses upon listening to underwater music at Oasis, the adult-only pool. Make it a family fun day in their own 7,590 square-foot family pool which offers complimentary supervised swimming twice daily. The pool menu offers mocktails, entrees and small bites. Meanwhile, the Hideout game room offers billiards, interactive touch-screen tables and all the latest in video gaming for indoor fun.
When lunchtime comes around, swing by Plancha for a delectable mix of American clubhouse favorites and Florida fare at the picturesque setting of the lakeside golf clubhouse, just a short stroll
from the resort or a quick golf cart ride from the front drive. If the day calls for some rest and relaxation, retreat to your stunning Grand Suite and enjoy a meal in the dining area set for eight. From here you can fill the day with endless possibilities – head back out to the Tom Fazio golf course for a second round, experience Disney World, located right in your own backyard, or forge new connections with loved ones at the spa which offers sticks and stones massage, as well as intravenous hydration and vitamin injections, and salon services which are sure to get you glammed up for an unforgettable night out.
Whether your day is filled with adventure or relaxation – or both – you are sure to want to settle into your table at Capa, the 17th-floor rooftop steakhouse and bar that showcases expertly wood-fired prime cuts and unique Spanish-influenced cuisine. Ease into the night with a drink of your choice from a wine and cocktail program that emphasizes both regional specialties and global classics, and then move on to tapas and charcuterie before finally feasting on the prime Porterhouse Steak. When the gastronomy extravaganza comes to a halt, it’s time to carry on the night on Capa’s terrace, where you can relish an enchanted moment as the Magic Kingdom Fireworks set the night sky ablaze.
When you’re ready for some respite from the New York hustle, Four Seasons Orlando offers all the entertainment, thrills, and high-end amenities you need for a stylish stay this season.
