Oasis of Calm

Seek solitude and sanctuary at The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Orlando.

- KIMBERLY KROL INLANDER

While in Orlando, Florida, for the Global Business Travel Association’s annual convention, I decided to sneak in a little relaxation pre-trade show kick-off and sought a few hours of calm at The Spa at Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World. As the convention center is not located on Disney property, this also gave me my one and only chance on that trip to get a taste of Disney.

Just the right taste, that is. Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World boasts many of the Disney amenities and proximity travelers crave without the in-your-face design and Disney mania some travelers want to avoid. And it also boasts the only adults-only pool on Disney property, as well as a kids club. Parents with children on a trip to Disney might think they can’t seek a moment of solitude from the little ones, but Four Seasons ensures that possibility, in more ways than one.

Guests can also see all the parks without leaving the property limits, as all Disney parks — Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Animal Kingdom — are visible from the resort, and select guestrooms offer views of the Magic Kingdom’s nightly fireworks.
