Wonderful hotel as others have mentioned! We had 4 kids with us and all 4 kiddos had cuts on the bottom of their feet after using the main pool. The worst was my 3 year old’s. Big gashes at the bottom of both of his feet. The pool bottom is rocky concrete and not a smooth surface so it must have happened around the zero entry area of the pool.… Read more
Wonderful hotel as others have mentioned! We had 4 kids with us and all 4 kiddos had cuts on the bottom of their feet after using the main pool. The worst was my 3 year old’s. Big gashes at the bottom of both of his feet. The pool bottom is rocky concrete and not a smooth surface so it must have happened around the zero entry area of the pool. Staff was great and offered us waterproof bandaids (they had plenty!) so that he can continue using the pool. I looked into ordering water shoes from Amazon but it wouldn’t have arrived in time. We were only there for 3 nights over July 4th weekend. Just wanted to write this in hopes to save another little kid’s feet!! Bring and use those water shoes! Read less

This is our favorite domestic four seasons hotel. We have been coming since the opening in 2014 and it continues to shine with the best staff, rooms, food and resort amenities. This property pulls off the not easy task of being at Disney world, but feeling like an oasis away from Disney. Adults can always escape to the oasis pool. I was dining solo at the lobby bar and the thoughtful staff seated me in a quiet corner away from families to enjoy my meal and wine. We also messaged on the app for a last minute reservation at Capa after returning from the park and were seated on the beautiful patio with a delicious meal and view of the fireworks. I cherish every memory my family has made at this hotel. Read less

We stayed here May 2024 and came with another family, to celebrate our daughter’s 3rd birthday! We’d taken her to Disney twice before and loved their branded properties but wanted to try out the FS Orlando as our family and the other family we were traveling with love FS! It did not disappoint. The multiple pools were great for the kids (and parents). Rooms were clean. Housekeeping and in room dining were excellent. Grounds are very lush. The light touches of Disney everywhere are awesome. Our room had a pullout couch at the foot of our bed which worked out perfect. We asked for bed rails which they provided so our daughter couldn’t roll off the bed. Truly a great place to stay if you want to visit the parks for a day or two but also enjoy a relaxing resort as well! Would stay again and again :) Read less

Rating: 10/10 My family and I stayed here in room 814 (a "1 King Bed") for two nights in May 2025. Positives: • They say perfection doesn’t exist—but I’m pretty sure whoever said that hasn’t stayed at the Four Seasons Resort Orlando.

Rating: 10/10 My family and I stayed here in room 814 (a "1 King Bed") for two nights in May 2025. Positives: • They say perfection doesn’t exist—but I’m pretty sure whoever said that hasn’t stayed at the Four Seasons Resort Orlando. If you’re looking for a masterclass in hospitality, this place delivers it with a smile, a cocktail, and a towel folded just right. • The pool setup here isn’t just good—it’s engineered bliss. Multiple pools to suit every mood, from serene adults-only sanctuaries to kid-friendly splash zones and a lazy river that lives up to its name in the best way. We parked ourselves beside it, and with spot-on poolside service never missing a beat, there was zero reason to move. • Staff interactions were nothing short of flawless. From valet to bellhop to server to bartender, every single person we encountered acted like they’d been personally trained by a hospitality deity. Polished, professional, genuinely warm—this is what service at the top should look like. • Our room? Spotless, spacious, and subtly luxurious without the faux-glitz you often find at family-friendly resorts. Every detail was considered, from the bedding to the lighting to a balcony view that offered front-row seats to nightly Disney fireworks without the theme park chaos. And yes, the A/C worked like a charm—because of course it did. • The food scene here punches way above its weight. Ravello served a branzino that might’ve ruined all other branzino for me—perfectly cooked, beautifully presented. The Lobby Bar rescued us after a long Disney day with local IPA, hot tea, and the kind of intuitive service you don’t even know you need until it happens. Lickety Split, their casual café, is a one-stop shop for great espresso, fresh donuts, smoothies, and—because they can—tiny bottled shots. Every venue nailed it, and each felt like it belonged to a much bigger culinary city. • When you combine the level of service, quality of accommodations, food that legitimately impresses, and a design that carefully balances elegance and ease—you expect the bill to sting. But everything felt fairly priced. Not cheap, but appropriate. There’s real value here, which in the world of high-end resorts is almost as rare as quiet children on a plane to Orlando. • After a full day at Disney—dodging crowds, hauling strollers, negotiating snack deals with sugar-crazed children—this resort feels less like a hotel and more like a triage center for exhausted parents. You return broken, sunburned, overstimulated—and then you’re handed a cold drink, wrapped in plush towels, and reminded what adulthood is supposed to feel like. It’s a sanctuary in the truest sense: calm, quiet, beautifully run, and just far enough from the madness to let you recover before doing it all again tomorrow. Negatives: • Try as I might, I couldn’t find a flaw. Not a chipped tile. Not a bad espresso. Not even a lukewarm greeting. This wasn’t just a great stay—it was a blueprint. Four Seasons Orlando isn’t riding on Disney’s coattails. It’s showing them how it’s done. After underwhelming experiences at the Maui and Big Island properties, I had started to question whether the Four Seasons name still meant anything. This stay reminded me that when they get it right, they don’t just meet expectations—they redefine them. Read less

We made Mother’s Day reservations with our family and also took some pictures while waiting on our reservations, a staff member came up to us but not the other family taking pictures and asked why we were there and did we have reservations to be at the property. We assured them we were waiting on our reservations for dinner and we were just taking pictures while we waited. We felt completely singled out and discriminated against. We walked outside and took some pictures outside since we felt embarrassed after what took place inside the hotel and we were approached again by the same staff member asking what time our reservations were and he really didn’t want us taking pictures . Again we felt like we were being singled out and harassed at this point we felt it was best to just cancel our reservations and leave. The way were were harassed and made feel like we did not belong made us so uncomfortable and we will not be booking there again. Read less
