Bathroom

  • The bathroom was the star of the show. I love giving my kiddo a bath when we travel. It's a great way to keep them entertained for an hour. 13
  • The bathroom is a stunner, what can I say? Oh and something I feel is important that no one ever mentions is that you can fit the full-size cribe in the Master Bathroom. 31

Location

  • The location is also top. 5
  • We spend two sumptuous days with our children in one of America's top luxury hotels fabulously located within Walt Disney World Resort 11

Room

read from 1 source · Deep coverage
  • Room with a view indeed! We stayed in a Park View Suite, which offers expansive views of the theme parks, the lake, the golf course and even the fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom. We could also see fireworks at Epcot though not quite as well. These views are worth the splurge! 31
  • White Glove Inspection: Couldn't find a thing to complain about. And you know we lift the mattresses up and strip the bed. As New Yorkers, we've learned you can't be too careful. The room had A LOT of white, too and I couldn't find a single spot. 31

Service

  • You have to understand that the resort offers the highest level of service at the Walt Disney World Resort. You're literally being treated like royalty from the moment you walk in, to the moment you leave. 8
  • First I have to say the staff at the Four Season resort in Orlando was amazing! From the second we pulled into the Four Seasons the staff was there and always went above and beyond. 34

Bed & Sleep

read from 1 source · Deep coverage
  • The sofa bed at the Four Season is the most comfortable such I've ever slept on, and puts the sofa beds in the Disney resorts to shame. 26
  • The famous Four Seasons bed is the star of the show, however. Its stacks of enormous pillows, cushion-topped mattress and thick duvet are among the most comfortable beds on the market. 4

  • There are are also some relatively good room rates during low season (late August / early September) with no crowds to improve the value equation. We really loved this property. The resort amenities and staff were truly outstanding. 15
  • It's also worth mentioning that although the cost ain't cheap, there are no hidden costs, fees or surcharges like many other luxury resorts. There is no resort fee here. 31

  • Buffet prices at a Four Seasons is hardly cheap. For the five of us to eat it was several hundred dollars. 10
  • Past travelers also appreciated the customer service team here but were not as pleased with the pricey nightly rates. 16
  • If I'm being super picky here (and with what these rooms costs, I think I'm allowed to be) the TV's they installed are only viewable when watching straight on. So when you're soaking in the tub you can't see the TV. 10
  • Even despite the hefty price tag, I could immediately see its appeal. 28
  • A search of dates throughout 2025 however doesn't show anything below $1,078 however. That's annoying, since we've stayed at very few hotels around the world in that price range. 6
  • It's also worth mentioning that although the cost ain't cheap, there are no hidden costs, fees or surcharges like many other luxury resorts. There is no resort fee here. 31
  • Used to stay here quite a bit but the post Covid room rates are crazy and I don't feel like it's that special. 5
  • *This hotel isn't cheap, rooms can cost up to $2,000 per night. 11
  • The initial sticker shock of the price of rooms sometimes has been a deterrent. I will say it completely stands up to the price point. 13
  • Though staying here comes with an eye-watering price-tag, a plethora of amenities - including a 5-acre private water park and sprawling kids club - offer unique value. 15
  • Even more annoying is Four Seasons Orlando' new Resort Fee. 6
  • Hell to the fucking no. Its value is nowhere to be seen if you are going to be spending 12+ hours outside of the FS. In my opinion, the only reason you should be dropping $1,200+ per night on FS Orlando is if you are never leaving the property. 5
  • The property looks nice, albeit very overpriced. 33
  • Obviously this property is pricey, so the one caveat I'd add is that if you're planning on being at the parks all day and just view a hotel as a place to sleep, maybe this isn't the market where it's worth splurging on a Four Seasons. 33
  • As OP mentions, just go to Waldorf or Ritz, its 95% the same for 3x less money. 5
  • We also had the opportunity to try Capa, a modern Spanish steakhouse with glorious park views from the 17th floor of the resort. This option is more upscale with pricing to match; Capa is good for date night or one of the special evenings when Kids For All Seasons offers evening programming. 1
  • While this resort is at the high-end of prices for Walt Disney World properties, all the aforementioned included amenities and activities add up to a solid value, especially if you book a rate that includes breakfasts and other perks like property credits and room upgrades. 15
  • For the quality of food and the amount of time with characters, it is undoubtedly the best value of the other options at Disney World resorts. 9
  • The high nightly rates will likely price out most travelers. 21
  • Gene Guest January 25, 2026, 12:52 am These prices are absurd. These prices are absurd. Doesn't one go to Disney to spend time in the park? Why pay such an obscene price for a place to sleep and store your bags for the day? 33
  • Four Seasons Resort Orlando is too expensive for my blood - and probably most Disney guests. My room was more than $5,000 a night, and I certainly couldn't afford to travel that way on my own. 12
  • My recommendation is to enjoy the resort in between park days. These prices are absurd. Doesn't one go to Disney to spend time in the park? Why pay such an obscene price for a place to sleep and store your bags for the day? 24
  • For real, Gene. I'm always surprised that this property charges what it does. You'd think you were at FS in Maldives, Seychelles, or Serengeti. 33
  • Overall, I think it's worth splurging on a stay if you want to spend less time in the theme parks while still enjoying some especially luxurious Disney perks. 32
  • The gelato flavors are either gorgeously traditional like hazelnut or chocolate or more innovative and Americanized like carrot cake and birthday cake. Stick with a double scoop of chocolate and hazelnut which is worth their calories. 9
  • As you'd expect at Four Seasons, service was great from the moment we arrived. The bellmen helped us with our bags, and valeted our car (which costs $42 per night). 33
  • The only demerit here is their shuttle to Disney. It only runs once an hour. For a resort this size and price, honestly that is inexcusable. Not only that, but there's no house car. 5
  • There are are also some relatively good room rates during low season (late August / early September) with no crowds to improve the value equation. We really loved this property. The resort amenities and staff were truly outstanding. 15
  • However, this is a luxury resort that doesn't scream Disney so it's a great addition to the area to meet the needs of those families. It is extremely pricey. It's very much a luxury hotel so you won't be getting a deal here anytime soon. 10
Service77 mentions
  • The staff is excellent. All of them are kind, great with kids, trustworthy people and my kids have a ball. They make friends. 10
  • There are six places where you can eat at the hotel. We dined at Ravello restaurant, a modern Italian, with exquisite food and helpful, knowledgeable staff who called us by name. 11
  • The kitchen and waitstaff will even plan the service pacing around the park schedule so your food doesn't get cold if you want to spend a few minutes watching the spectacle. 21
  • Service and attention to detail was super sad. Our first room had a broken toilet and wonky AC. 5
  • You have to understand that the resort offers the highest level of service at the Walt Disney World Resort. You're literally being treated like royalty from the moment you walk in, to the moment you leave. 8
  • First I have to say the staff at the Four Season resort in Orlando was amazing! From the second we pulled into the Four Seasons the staff was there and always went above and beyond. 34
  • There were only a few entrances open and each one had a body temperature screening with a person monitoring all activity. They have strict mask protocols, everything was extremely clean, and distanced. 13
  • The Four Seasons has a shuttle bus that leave every 60 minutes. So if you miss it you are waiting a full hour for the next one. This kind of stinks when someone at Disney's Pop Century Resort paying $89 a night can grab a bus every 20 minutes to and from their resort and a guest at the Four Seasons Resort is standing outside for possibly an hour. 34
  • Twice daily room service. And not just a quick vacuum either, I am a sucker for good housekeeping and thoughtful details. What is it about someone organizing my toothbrush that thrills me so? 20
  • Just a quick note to let you know that we are from Argentina and returning a second time to one of our favourite resorts worldwide. This time for 4 days, no Disney whatsoever, just enjoying the pools and great service and kid friendly hotel. 6
  • Service recovery and comms with management was super weird, and it turned out that the GM and RM were both out of town. 5
  • Though I was in a bit of a hurry, the valet graciously held my car while the team inside checked me in and offered me a Park View Suite on the sixth floor. 19
  • The reception desk was big and well staffed, and as usual, the front desk associates were friendly. There's even a fun twist here on the traditional check-in experience, as there's a special kids check-in area, where they can complete their "registration" process, and then get a lollipop. 33
  • Service: B- Again, its ok. Friendly, responsive on the FS chat and app and in person. Check In staff spent a lot of time going through their laundry list of amenities, explaining everything you need to know. 5
  • Throughout Explorer Island, there is attentive poolside service. They pass around little treats, bring you ice water and you can also order food from a full-service menu. 31
  • The service was top notch. We were never without a cold glass of water or poolside dining. 13
  • The Disney concierge folks at FS Orlando were the best! They answered all of our parks questions and we had many. 24
  • This is one of the highest room count Four Seasons properties in the world, and despite that, service is every bit as frictionless as at any other Four Seasons. So whether it's calling the front desk and them picking up on the first or second ring, or housekeeping or room service coming exactly when they're supposed to, everything was flawless, on that front. 33
  • And Robes. Even for little ones! You just have to request these. They're the cutest! 31
  • Despite its large size, the hotel has impeccable service, and couldn't be more kids friendly (as you'd hope, in Orlando!). 33
  • *The staff: From the moment we pulled up in our hire car and multiple staff appeared to help with our luggage and park the vehicle, through to those on reception, the concierge service, the Disney desk, those around the pool and the restaurant staff, we have never experienced such diligence and care. 11
  • The interior decorating in the living area of the suite kind of look like any random Courtyard by Marriott in Asia. Nice, functional, but not particularly exciting. 24
  • Upon arriving at the resort, we were greeted by what felt like an army of kind and helpful resort staff taking our luggage, opening our doors, directing us through the lobby to registration, checking us in, informing us about the resort, confirming our appointments/reservations, etc. 15
  • When we bring the dog with us to a Four Seasons, they always provide bowls and treats personalized with her name. Walking down the halls or around the grounds staff (and other guests) always approach to interact with the dog which makes us feel welcome. 18
  • I was surprised to see that pool service was considerably more lax at the non-21 pool areas. I would say sloppy, even. First day we had a pool attendant so hung over he messed up his own name. 5
  • The driver assists with loading the items on when needed. 6
  • Tons of glasses and garbage around - especially by the lazy river on/off points. 5
  • Did I feel truly welcome by the staff? Yes, every person on the property was so sweet it hurt. Just how it should be 🙂 31
  • Period. It's really no surprise that the Four Seasons offers the highest level of service at the Walt Disney World Resort as the only five-star Mobil property in Central Florida. Attendants offer gummy gators to children poolside. 9
  • Being a FS customer for over 20 years, mainly in europe and Asia, reminded me why everyone says FS in the US is sort of lame. Service and attention to detail was super sad. 5
  • For returning visitors who will be spending time relaxing at the hotel, and who have cars and thus can easily work around its bus schedule issues, Four Seasons Resort Orlando is a spectacular place to stay, with a level of service and amenities unmatched elsewhere at Disney World, the best pool complex on property, great dining for adults, and enormous and very comfortable rooms. 26
  • The service is top notch. This property is welcoming and not stuffy. The staff is extremely accommodating. 13
  • Again the Four Seasons Orlando resort is stunning, has the best service I have every experienced and has beautiful rooms. 34
  • I was surprised to see that pool service was considerably more lax at the non-21 pool areas. I would say sloppy, even. 5
  • The staff was super attentive and helped guide us through our food and wine choices since this was our first time visiting. 32
  • Service and attention to detail was super sad. 5
  • From the moment we arrived, the experience felt effortless. Our bags were quietly whisked away, check-in was seamless, and the children were immediately drawn in-handed colorful pool bags and resort scavenger hunt passports they could fill with stamps (and later trade in for treats). 3
  • The Four Seasons Disney desk in the lobby also staffs some of the most helpful and knowledgable Disney cast members around, too. 9
  • Towel quality? Excellent. 31
  • The rooms and service is superior to other places I have stayed and if you are staying in Asian or Middle East countries Four Seasons guarantees a level of service which others may not. 22
  • Friendly and attentive pool staff are here to make your experience that that much more relaxing. 8
  • Four Seasons employees also just consistently go above and beyond to be friendly and make sure everyone has a great stay. This is even evident in small ways, like the cute ways that housekeeping places stuffed animals on the bed after cleaning the room. 33
  • Check-in was easy and friendly as you might expect. They are unsurprisingly quite practiced at entertaining little ones. 31
  • The Four Seasons app chat is a game-changer for responsive service for whatever you need, wherever you are, before and during your stay. 15
  • I didn't catch that the main hallway door I mentioned before that is what hotel staff sees had wiring issues so the light stayed red. We came back to the room a few times to find that the room hadn't been cleaned or turn down service wasn't done because the wiring made 10
  • Service and attention to detail was super sad. Our first room had a broken toilet and wonky AC. Cleaning was a 5/10 for me. Especially for a check-in clean. 5
  • Room service is prompt, hot and delicious, valets fast even when busy, staff is welcoming and friendly. 22
  • The service was also warm and inviting and helpful. Our waitress was attentive and welcoming. 10
  • By the way, the buses used for this service are super luxurious, and oddly, every time we used them, we were alone. 33
  • Staff were so good with them. When we checked in, they received a bag containing a scavenger hunt. 11
  • My meal was absolutely delicious with exceptional service (special shout out to Kayla). 4
  • My niece held on to the wand when she wandered around the theme park, sprinkling her fairy dust. When we lost one, the staff didn't hesitate to find her another one. 3
  • All the amenities and activities on offer at this property, as well as the attentive service experience, add up to an incredible wow factor. 15
  • They get another big ding here because their housekeeping is sloppy/forgetful/inattentive. 5
  • Kitchen? There was no mini-bar, which I actually like. You can fill the fridge with things that you need. Especially with a child. There is a nice spacious refrigerator that you can fill yourself. 31
  • They get dinged here though because when we arrived in our private car to the hotel to check in, around 11 PM, not a single bellman came to greet us, open or doors or get our bags. Our driver did all of that because there was just nobody around. I had to hunt down the bellman who was standing around in a corner not paying attention to people who were coming and going out the drive way. 5
  • Bottom line: Why would you recommend it?The Four Seasons manages to marry homeyness with high-end luxury. This towering, Italian-inspired resort is where attentive staff welcomes you into the marble lobby with a glass of sparkling wine. 30
  • In terms of transportation to and from Disney World parks, there is a complimentary shuttle service, which operates pretty frequently. While this obviously isn't as convenient as being at a hotel connected to the parks by monorail or other transportation, we found this to be quite seamless. 33
  • In the rooms, the housekeeping staff continues this theme. Expect your strewn laundry to be folded, unwieldy charging cables tied up and bathroom toiletries organized. Many luxury hotels follow these practices, but this property seems to have thought of how they can improve upon them. 4
  • The lobby area is understated elegance but the second you pull up to the lobby you know you're at a Four Seasons with the way you're greeted and personally escorted to the check in desk. 10
  • And Rachael our server at Ravello talked Harry Potter with my daughter for a good ten minutes - best service ever! 6
  • The shuttle buses are very luxe and rarely crowded. However, they only run about every hour so if you're with kids and you miss one, you're kind of SOL. 31
  • Sounds like a Met Most actually. That housekeeping thing is unacceptable. 5
  • When you step foot in the hotel you're greeted with the most gorgeous chandeliers that look like fireworks! Such a magical welcome. 31
  • Turn-Down Service: Yes. But I love the Four Seasons because it's really twice daily full housekeeping service. And they don't just come in and make the bed, they really organize your stuff for you. Every day we came back to find our room in superb condition, toiletries neatly organized on towels and even my daughters clothes were neatly folded in piles. 31
  • Pool attendants have everything you could want, including sunscreen, pitchers of water, sunglass cleaner, magazines and first aid for the kids. They are extremely friendly and make sure you have what you need at all times. 18
  • The Rooms at the Four Seasons Orlando - Stunning, expansive, and luxurious. These rooms are beautiful and have all the nice little extra touches. 34
  • Cleaning was a 5/10 for me. Especially for a check-in clean. The pusher on the toilet was literally hanging on for dear life and there is no way that was not noticeable. 5
  • Concierge is a welcome resource when looking for something off the wall no matter where city the brand carries weight. 22
  • Opposite the concierge station at the Four Seasons is a desk, staffed by incredibly seasoned Disney vacation planners who can assist with all park-related questions. 23
  • The result is twice hourly service to and from the TTC with its easy access to MK (and Epcot), and hourly to the other parks, with some stops in between. The scheduling is not right-the shuttles begin too late and end too early-and the frequency is not sufficient. 26
  • One person in our group had a peanut allergy, and staff went above and beyond to ensure his food was safe. 25
  • There was also one especially thoughtful touch that made our trip in 2020: a member of the Concierge team, Sandra, learned that our family had experienced a sudden and unexpected loss right before our trip. Upon hearing this news, Sandra sent a beautiful floral display and lovely handwritten note to our room (pictured above). We were incredibly touched by this heartfelt gesture. 15
  • Four Seasons service is legendary for a reason. It's one of the few resort brands that delivers the same service standard across the brand. 20
  • The reception desk was big and well staffed, and as usual, the front desk associates were friendly. 33
  • I told you; we can't stay away. We love this resort for being as family friendly as it feels stylish with flawless service and design. 9
  • The kids had a blast going around the resort completing this activity and getting stamps at each spot, and the staff all played up the game on each stop adding to the fun. 15
Room44 mentions
  • Room with a view indeed! We stayed in a Park View Suite, which offers expansive views of the theme parks, the lake, the golf course and even the fireworks show at the Magic Kingdom. We could also see fireworks at Epcot though not quite as well. These views are worth the splurge! 31
  • Personally, I find the Golden Oak View room more than lovely and you can always watch the fireworks from the 14th floor of the hotel from the hotel balcony. 10
  • If traveling with kids, the 1-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom Golden Oak Suite (or upgraded-view Park View Suite) is the ideal bed and bath configuration for families. 15
  • Plus, the room was designed from a family perspective. The sinks and shower settings were easily reachable, and the king bed and very comfortable sofa pull-out could easily fit a family of four, if not five. We had plenty of room. 6
  • Golden Oak View Suite. This is for the family that wants extra breathing space. The suites are magnificent but again, will not fit a family of five so you'll need two. 10
  • Another thoughtful in-room touch for families was that the mini-fridge was positioned in a top cabinet and was completely empty (no mini-bar items) so we didn't have to worry about little hands getting into things they shouldn't, and there was plenty of space to store unfinished kids milks, meals and other perishable items for later use. 15
  • White Glove Inspection: Couldn't find a thing to complain about. And you know we lift the mattresses up and strip the bed. As New Yorkers, we've learned you can't be too careful. The room had A LOT of white, too and I couldn't find a single spot. 31
  • The large, furnished terrace was perfect for watching the nightly Disney World fireworks, and two bathrooms - one with a massive soaking tub - featured delightful, pomelo-scented amenities from Atelier Cologne. 7
  • My favorite way to experience Disney from the resort was the nightly fireworks show, which was clearly visible from my balcony. 28
  • The 1BR suite has a tiny bedroom and a laughably large livingroom with weird furniture that makes it look incomplete. There is noting different besides size from the regular rooms, and if you are considering it, just don't. 5
  • The rooms and suites offer an innovative floor plan that feature with an open closet that doubles as a hallway to the bathroom. This proves very functional and easy to keep family belongings organized and out of the main room. 9
  • Either choice yields an enormous room-with 500 square feet they are, according to Four Seasons, the largest in Orlando-a simply huge closet, tons of storage, and a nice, though mostly undivided, bath (the toilet is set off in an opaque glass surround). 26
  • In perhaps the largest suite I've enjoyed all year, I found myself marveling at the extensive space and elevated design. 19
  • At over 800 square feet, the suite was quite roomy and would be comfortable for a group with up to four people thanks to the distinct living and bedroom areas and the sleeper sofa, as well as all that outdoor space. 21
  • The 1BR suite has a tiny bedroom and a laughably large livingroom with weird furniture that makes it look incomplete. 5
  • Doors and minibar area was the worst. Our second regular room also had AC issues, and none of the 3 rooms had similar cooling capacity, noise level (clanking) and humidity levels. 5
  • The spacious one-bedroom suites feature absurdly comfortable beds, abundant closet and drawer space, and two full bathrooms-so you'll never fight to get ready in the morning. 30
  • I encourage you to pay for a park view room, as the balcony views are an incredible way to enjoy the sunset over the grounds below and the Disney parks in the horizon. 23
  • Our lake-view king room overlooked this calming scene and was an oasis in itself. At about 500 square feet, it was spacious and included a couch as well as a table and two chairs, where I enjoyed room service one night. 28
  • You never know when a reservations agent will come through with a great deal. We were in a Park View room. The view was great, and it was fun watching the Disney World fireworks in the distance at night. 6
  • We found their transportation to be reliable and very easy. Our hotel balcony faced the Magic Kingdom, and we were able to see the fireworks every evening. The room itself was stunning to say the least. 17
  • The closets are huge and there's plenty of room for storage. They are really beautifully done and feel every bit the luxury you would expect. 10
  • There's also a great, free kids' club for children aged four to 12, with enthusiastic staff and brilliant facilities. Our room was spacious and luxurious. It was a park view room which meant we could watch the Disney fireworks and lights displays from our balcony. 11
  • Finally, an impressive balcony running the length of my suite housed a table with four chairs on one end along with two separate lounge chairs on the other. 19
  • I can't recommend the Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World highly enough. We loved watching fireworks from our balcony. 3
  • I loved the dining area and lounge chairs that came with the large terrace attached to our room. 32
  • We checked into a gorgeous Golden Oak View Suite just before sundown, which offered exactly the amount of space that our family of three needs since we all have different sleep schedules. 27
  • My balcony also faced Disney World, allowing me to see the incredible resort grounds and the fireworks from the theme park at night. 19
  • Theres a small cut out area in the room for bag and closet space so the use the 500 sq very smart. 5
  • The only room we have stayed in here that did not work well for our family was the Golden Oak View Room with 2 Queen Bed configuration - we found it far too cramped and ultimately had to request a crib for our toddler so the kids could get some sleep. 15
  • There's a large doorless closet that exists as an open space between the giant bathroom (stocked with yummy Atelier Cologne products) and the bedroom. 28
  • The Four Seasons has its own bus to the four main Disney parks. It's a full bus - not a small shuttle - so there's always plenty of room. 6
  • A spacious balcony with comfortable furniture provided us a great place to watch fireworks at night. 18
  • During my stay, I booked a Park View Suite. From my sixth-floor balcony, I had stunning views of the resort grounds, the Florida wilderness that lay before me, and fireworks at Magic Kingdom and EPCOT. 12
  • This will be especially beneficially when parks start increasing capacity again. We stayed in a "standard" room that was very nicely appointed. 13
  • The decor, though slightly pared-down, felt fresh and bright, engendering a homey yet upscale ambience. 21
  • There is noting different besides size from the regular rooms, and if you are considering it, just don't. We found the upkeep of the rooms to be a solid 5-6/10. All 3 rooms had tons of dings, stains and marks. Just small stuff, but everywhere. Doors and minibar area was the worst. 5
  • We stayed in a Magic Kingdom-view suite with a private terrace. Our one-bedroom suite, which typically goes for $1,200 a night, came with views of Magic Kingdom. Later in the night, we also had a great view of the park's evening fireworks. 32
  • The views from my room (and the Park View Deluxe Suite I toured) were breathtaking, but nothing could have prepared me for the views from Four Season Resort Orlando's 17th-floor Michelin-starred restaurant, Capa. 12
  • This will be especially beneficially when parks start increasing capacity again. We stayed in a "standard" room that was very nicely appointed. The beds were very comfortable. 13
  • The rooms are all well-appointed with sunny, modern decor and furnishings. 15
  • The views from the room we got, the Park View room were spectacular. 5
  • The closet lay between the bedroom and master bath, with plenty of space for luggage and both hanging and folded clothes. 21
  • The room featured electronic controls and an iPad for in-room dining, resort information, and services bookings. There was a foldable step stool and drying rack in the bathroom upon check-in, which we loved for post-family-swim-time. 15
Location7 mentions
  • Location: A Its located in a private gated community called Golden Oaks. Its located in Disney but you also feel like you arent in Disney at the same time. Its located about 10-15 minute drive from EPCOT and Magic Kingdom so its not that bad. 5
  • Four Seasons Resort Orlando is conveniently located on Walt Disney World Property - but you could spend multiple days at the resort without ever missing the parks. 12
  • The resort's location makes it a prime place to stay and one of the major aspects of my Four Seasons Orlando review. 27
  • The location is also top. 5
  • We spend two sumptuous days with our children in one of America's top luxury hotels fabulously located within Walt Disney World Resort 11
  • Nearby construction can distract from the otherwise elegant and hushed vibe of the hotel. 21
  • They've thought of everything - not to mention, it's located within Walt Disney World Resort, with seamless access to endless theme park goodness. 1
Food91 mentions
  • Ravello offers breakfast and dinner, as well as the most pleasant character meal at the Disney resort: The Good Morning Breakfast With Goofy and His Pals. 23
  • One of the best perks of staying at the Four Seasons is the food. Such a gigantic upgrade from every Disney hotel I have ever stayed in. And we ate our way through this resort-from in-room dining to the Spanish-themed steakhouse on the rooftop! 31
  • So let's get to the food. It was very average and over priced. We had three different steaks. 34
  • Ravello also serves daily breakfast, with both à la carte options and a buffet (delicious and varied), as well as a Character Brunch on weekends, where Goofy, Mickey, and Minnie visit each table for photos and entertainment. 29
  • Excellent food for those too tired after long theme park days to go out 27
  • Lickety Split, the coffee and gelato bar in the lobby, deserves its own shout out. I love this property for having a gourmet coffee outlet! All of the gelato is made in-house. 1
  • In-room dining - great service experience, only gripe is it routinely takes up to an hour to get dinner. The wait time was quoted accurately when we ordered, we are just used to 30-45 minute room service wait times at most properties. 15
  • The food's not necessarily better than Disney parks, but the Four Seasons food is good, and there are some restaurants at Universal City Walk and Downtown Disney that are a little better than Rainforest Cafe. 6
  • Lickety Split's grab-and-go food and drinks menu, including pretty epic housemade gelato, is ideal for snacking and quick meals. 27
  • Then there's the Goofy and Pals breakfast at Ravello, featuring a full buffet of sweet and savory dishes and made-to-order juices and smoothies. Mickey, Minnie and Goofy make the rounds throughout service, stopping for hugs and pictures. It's really so cute and joyful and a bit chaotic from all of the excitement, but nothing beats walking downstairs to meet and greet the mouse himself. 28
  • Dinner at Capa is at the penthouse-level restaurant offering tapas and Spanish influenced steakhouse staples. The dramatic black and red design feels adult and manages to be both sophisticated for adult groups or families. 9
  • For breakfast the resort offers a beautiful buffet at Ravello that also involves the best character meal in Disney World, recommended even for those guess not staying on site. 9
  • Which brings me to PB&G, the outside restaurant. This is where we head almost all of the time. This past trip we ate here almost exclusively except for our evening at Capa. It's quiet, chill and has a very laid back Florida vibe. 10
  • For dessert, the sugar- and cinnamon-dusted churros with chocolate and dulce de leche sauce ($15) shouldn't be missed. Also, not to miss? The prime views from the restaurant's balcony of the Magic Kingdom fireworks. 21
  • I also highly recommend taking advantage of room service one day. The menu has something for everyone but everything arrives piping hot and is plated as nicely as it would be in a sit-down restaurant. 31
  • Four Seasons has the nicest standard rooms on property, the best pool complex at Disney World, and fine dining for adults (and a bit of playful dining for kids). 26
  • I also had a delicious breakfast (Belgian waffle with mixed berries, coffee, and an energizing smoothie) at Ravello and cocktail service from PB&G. 12
  • The "italian" food was made by someone who has never been to italy. And I get it, you are in orlando. But at 1400 bucks per room per night, my expectations were higher. 5
  • The breakfast buffet is excellent with fresh everything, as well as a cooked-to-order omelet bar. 1
  • The Four Seasons excels at catering to its guests without losing any of the standards set by their properties in their other resort locations. All of its restaurants' environments are equally strong for adult-only or family meals, which is something most other Disney resorts can't boast. 23
  • Perhaps what impressed me the most was the extent to which this property is a destination in and of itself, thanks to the incredible water park, plus the excellent dining (including a Michelin-starred restaurant). 33
  • Everything about Four Seasons Orlando is exceptional and thoughtful, from the gorgeous design of the resort to the incredibly delicious food, and everything in between. 25
  • The only food we ate here was the breakfast and it was good, but again, not great. I'm sitting here trying to think of what I can say about the food and...I literally cant remember what I ate. It was all very forgettable. Not great but also not terrible. 5
  • The other "don't miss event" is the character breakfast. I admittedly can't stand the Disney hotel character breakfasts. Four Season's does the character breakfast right, enough said! 17
  • The balconies are spacious with lounge chairs and outdoor tables for dining. 20
  • So much so that it needs its own page, so read about that here. There are a ton of food options at Four Seasons Orlando. We didn't have time to try them all but what we did have was great to perfection. 18
  • Yea. His praise for the in lobby coffee is always weirdly effusive. It's nice and all, but usually tastes terrible 24
  • Restaurant staff were quick to ask about putting in kids' food orders first while we made up our mind about what to order ourselves, and kids' meals were prepared with lightning speed. 15
  • Despite being a family area, it was quiet and a place where we could order excellent poolside drinks and food. 27
  • PB&G is casual outdoor dining. We came in from the pool and had a delicious lunch. 13
  • Lickety Split is a fun place to stop for coffee, smoothies, gelato, or a quick grab-and-go lunch. 2
  • All dining staff was extremely knowledgeable knowing which dishes to avoid and how meals could be modified to avoid gluten cross-contamination. 25
  • My meal was absolutely delicious with exceptional service (special shout out to Kayla). 4
  • For dessert, the sugar- and cinnamon-dusted churros with chocolate and dulce de leche sauce ($15) shouldn't be missed. 21
  • Limited Dining Options for Lunch - The only restaurant open for lunch is by the pool and we did encounter some guests that were looking for more during our stay. 34
  • Having said that, it's Disney food (hamburgers, chicken fingers) and well worn mattresses. 10
  • The resort features several dining experiences, including the one-Michelin-star restaurant Capa, which serves exquisite Spanish cuisine from an open-air kitchen on the hotel's top floor, with stunning views of the park's nightly fireworks. 29
  • Dinner guests step out onto the balconies during the fireworks shows. It's not much of a stretch to applaud the Four Seasons for its interior design, but the cheery yellow and gray halls are my favorite of any hotel's I have seen. 9
  • The truffle ravioli is something I really want to go back and try! There is also a grab and go type of coffee shop right off the lobby. The coffee was delicious and we also got a scoop of gelato for completing a scavenger hunt with Patrick. Wow it was really good. 13
  • The Character Breakfast at the Four Season's Ravello restaurant is a very special experience for families with young children. 25
  • Ravello - serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Top-notch breakfast buffet; lunch and dinner a la carte or prix-fixe menu. 15
  • The resort's upscale Italian eatery, Ravello, served my favorite meal during our stay - and one of the best meals I've ever had at Disney World. 32
  • We got the three course special dining menu. The food was fabulous. My husband ordered the steak and I got the sea bass. His steak was so good that I actually ordered a second dinner to eat my own steak! I've never done that! Truly, truly delicious! 10
  • PB&G is an open-air venue overlooking the lake, offering Southern-inspired cuisine. We had lunch here and loved it. Fresh ingredients in a casual atmosphere make it perfect for families who want something delicious but low-key. 1
  • Dining options at the Four Seasons are a welcome treat for any foodie families visiting the Disney World area. 9
  • The food is awesome here if you spend some time there. 5
  • The water park/pools/etc you describe are our destination, we just make sure to go to a Disney park for one of the days. Also, there is a Michelin rated restaurant onsite that is amazing. The food is awesome here if you spend some time there. 5
  • For dessert, we shared a delicious chocolate tart with ice cream. This meal was excellent, and it's very nice to see how elevated of a restaurant the Four Seasons offers in Orlando. 33
  • The coffee drinks were also great, ranging from cold brew to cappuccinos. 33
  • Ravello: If you like Italian food then Ravello is right up your alley. This modern Italian restaurant offers both breakfast and dinner in a luxurious open space. 8
  • Exciting restaurants, a luxurious spa, and a spectacular pool complex complete the scene. 16
  • Plancha: Located within the golf clubhouse, this lakeside restaurant is the perfect place to unwind after a round of golf or to simply retreat. 8
  • Lickety-Split - coffee, delicious ice creams, and snack-focused cafe/bar. 15
  • The food is always excellent. From in-room dining to meals at Capa, the rooftop Spanish Steakhouse, we ate our way through the resort. 27
  • Capa is the best dining experience at Walt Disney World Resort. 12
  • I pretty much-ordered in-room dining every day during my stay via the resorts mobile app. The service was so convenient and prompt! 8
  • A highlight for me was the Capa restaurant and lounge on the top floor. While this restaurant is definitely family-friendly, it does a great job keeping an "adult" feel to the space - something I greatly appreciated after my dose of Disney! 2
  • The hotel itself is a park with the water slides and Disney breakfast! 10
  • Orlando's private-beach resort is your summer group trip solved: expansive lagoon, great food, and homes that sleep the whole crew, all *thisclose* to Disney. 30
  • The menu features Spanish-style tapas (the gambas is one of my favorite dishes), grilled steaks, seafood, and more. 7
  • The water park/pools/etc you describe are our destination, we just make sure to go to a Disney park for one of the days. Also, there is a Michelin rated restaurant onsite that is amazing. 5
  • But rest assure, she still ate plenty of frozen treats during our stay. We had an excellent dinner at Ravello, the Italian restaurant. 31
  • It's worth noting that on Thursdays, Saturdays, and select Tuesdays, the hotel offers a Disney-themed breakfast, with Goofie and his pals. This is of course a huge treat for kids, and they even take professional pictures for you, so I highly recommend this if you're staying here. 33
  • The breakfast buffet is actually very good and if you go a Thursday or Saturday, you will meet Mickey and Minnie. 20
  • They pass around little treats, bring you ice water and you can also order food from a full-service menu. We ordered a feast for ourselves and everything was delicious-from the french fries to the veggie burger. 31
  • Oddly enough the entire floor also had a strong food/kitchen smell, which I assume is from the top floor restaurant. 5
  • Reply TC Guest January 25, 2026, 9:24 pm Yea. His praise for the in lobby coffee is always weirdly effusive. It's nice and all, but usually tastes terrible 33
  • Or you can book dinner at Capa, the steakhouse on property with amazing food and great views. 20
  • The Four Seasons Orlando Restaurants We had excellent breakfasts, lunches and dinners at the hotel. We had excellent breakfasts, lunches and dinners at the hotel. The food was excellent, and there were interesting choices on the kids' menus, like pulled pork and Manchego mac & cheese. 6
  • Noise levels off the rails and dinner service was sad, just sad. The "italian" food was made by someone who has never been to italy. 5
  • Don't miss the sweet and sumptuous tres leches cake ($7) for dessert. 21
  • There are six places where you can eat at the hotel. We dined at Ravello restaurant, a modern Italian, with exquisite food and helpful, knowledgeable staff who called us by name. 11
  • I've been to Orlando twice and found the day time food options (particularly at Lakeside) to be pretty bad. 24
  • While perhaps not directly related to service, I also appreciate the little touches to what Four Seasons offers guests, like complimentary coffee and pastries in the lobby each morning. 33
  • The restaurants we dined at offered pretty robust kids menus with activities and coloring, high chairs and booster seats, and kids tableware. 15
  • Airy and bright, these rooms have soft carpeting, corner sitting areas with a coffee table, separate dining table that doubles as a guest and ample storage in closets or on the counter. 4
  • This breakfast happens a few days a week at the resort's restaurant Ravello and it was one of my favorite character-dining experiences. Although it was still a buffet, it felt upscale and I enjoyed the food and drinks, which included things like cold-pressed juices and French butter. 32
  • Kids will love dining at the pools, at the nearby PB&J, and at the Goofy and Friends breakfast at Ravello, but otherwise dining here works best for adults-and for them it works very well. 26
  • We dined at Ravello restaurant, a modern Italian, with exquisite food and helpful, knowledgeable staff who called us by name. This is also where the delicious buffet breakfast is served and it was lovely to be eating such quality fare. 11
  • Over the course of our three visits, we have dined at every venue, and the food at all venues is solid by Four Seasons standards, with special mention to Capa as a great upscale dining option, which was awarded its first Michelin star in 2022. 15
  • I always appreciate when a hotel offers this kind of experience-especially when the coffee is good, which it certainly is at Four Seasons Orlando-and when the overall selection feels thoughtful and appealing. 29
  • F&B was just alright. The disney character thing was cute but the main venue is dark and dingy. Noise levels off the rails and dinner service was sad, just sad. The "italian" food was made by someone who has never been to italy. 5
  • I think this entire restaurant is noisy, crowded and lacking in the same feeling of serenity the rest of the hotel gives you. 10
  • When it comes to dining options, Four Seasons Orlando doesn't disappoint. 2
  • Capa: This is one of three restaurants on the property along with Ravello and PB&G. This elegant rooftop steakhouse and bar has two outdoor terraces on the 17th-floor and serves Spanish-influenced cuisine, expertly grilled steak, and fresh Florida seafood. 8
  • The brunch at Plancha (in the clubhouse) is not to be missed. 25
  • They answered all of our parks questions and we had many. We found Capa to be family friendly (there were 2 toddlers in our party of 12) and Goofy's character breakfast was a blast! 24
  • The Good Morning Breakfast with Goofy and His Pals (note: his pals are Mickey and Minnie) features an incredible buffet and includes soft drinks, coffee and tea. 31
  • Because Florida and hot beverages aren't as appealing, the Four Seasons imported a special cold-pressed brewing machine that makes the smoothest, most complex iced coffee I've ever tasted. 9
  • Starting at breakfast, Ravello presents an impressive buffet with made-to-order eggs as well as an a la carte breakfast menu. 4
  • For dessert, we shared a delicious chocolate tart with ice cream. 33
Bed & Sleep7 mentions
  • The sofa bed at the Four Season is the most comfortable such I've ever slept on, and puts the sofa beds in the Disney resorts to shame. 26
  • In 2019, we stayed in a Golden Oak View Room with 2 Queen Beds -- we do not recommend this room configuration, no one slept well. We ultimately had to get a crib for 3 y/o V so G & V could actually sleep, which further cramped the room. 15
  • The famous Four Seasons bed is the star of the show, however. Its stacks of enormous pillows, cushion-topped mattress and thick duvet are among the most comfortable beds on the market. 4
  • The pull out bed has a pillow top but is not very comfortable. We tested the pull out and it was not comfortable at all per Chris' back. 34
  • Of course, the classic debate followed: who gets the "real" bed. Or more accurately, who doesn't have to sleep on the sofa bed. That lasted all of five minutes-until they realized the sofa bed was just as comfortable as the queen beds, and arguably better positioned for late-night TV. 3
  • Somehow I sleep better when I stay at any Four Seasons-I don't know what the magic is with their beds but it's awesome for an insomniac like me. 18
  • The king-size bed in our room is one of the most comfortable beds I have ever slept in. 32
Bathroom9 mentions
  • The bathroom was the star of the show. I love giving my kiddo a bath when we travel. It's a great way to keep them entertained for an hour. 13
  • The big bathroom had two sinks, a bath, separate shower and a large mirror with a television in the centre, a great novelty, plus Bose surround sound. 11
  • The bathroom is a stunner, what can I say? Oh and something I feel is important that no one ever mentions is that you can fit the full-size cribe in the Master Bathroom. 31
  • Plush rugs and towels alongside Atelier Cologne bath and shower products amplified the luxurious feel of the room. 19
  • Chris did not like the bathroom sliding pocket doors because they never close all the way. 34
  • Honeycomb was a repeated geometric motif throughout the hotel and when I walked into the bathroom and saw the honeycomb marble I was in a design-swoon. It is stunning. 18
  • Hairdryer? Yes, decent quality. 31
  • Bathroom had a shower and a tub, which for having a kid, is nice since hes too young to use a shower. 5
  • The bathrooms are done in gorgeous white with gray tones. I think my favorite part is that the sliding door that closes the bathroom has a full length mirror built into it. I loved this! 10
Noise5 mentions
  • When we were there the construction on the new building was off the rails. Super super noisy. Everyone was moving to the quiet side and obviously we were in the 50% who they could not accommodate. The noise was heavy enough to wake us at 07.00 and the balconies were unuseable. 5
  • It was so loud I asked to be moved which I never have done before in my life. The main dining room is better but still very difficult to have a conversation with anyone at your table. 34
  • When we were there the construction on the new building was off the rails. Super super noisy. 5

View2 mentions
  • The rooftop views are very special, day or night, and this is as good as it gets for a fireworks view! 2
  • It would be easy to recommend Capa just for its its rooftop panoramic views of Disney World's four theme parks and the nightly fireworks displays, but it also happens to serve the best steak at Disney. 30
