5 Star Hotels in Orlando

It is really surprising how few 5 Star Hotels in Orlando Florida there actually are. When you think about how built-up Orlando is with all of the family fun parks, you would think there would be many to choose from. This is just not the case.

When you add in water park features to these 5 Star Hotels in Orlando, the list gets even smaller. All of the 5 Star Hotels in Orlando will be listed. More focus is placed on the 5-Star Resorts with the extra water features. This means we are looking for something more than a pool. It is important to find the 5 Start Hotels in Orlando which have a lazy river, water slide, zero-entry, kids splash park, or a combination of these.

Large Lazy River, 3 Swimming Pools and a Kids Splash Playground

Ritz-Carlton Grande Lakes in Orlando quiet pool 960

The Ritz-Carlton is a lavish Resort and is unique in that it shares amenities with its sister property, the JW Marriott Orlando. Between the two of them, there are a total of 3 pools, 1 large flowing lazy river, zero-entry access, and a very small Kiddie Play area. Most of the fun water features are found at the JW Marriott but since they are both part of the Grande Lakes Resort and share amenities, it falls under the benchmark that we use to classify the 5 Star Hotels in Orlando.
