Opening in just a few days, the new Four Seasons Resort Orlando will bring more than a touch of class to Walt Disney World. Set within the gated and exclusive Golden Oak community surrounded by trees, lakes and protected wetlands, the Four Seasons presents a massive 23-acre property filled with nothing but luxurious accommodations, lavish cuisine, and plenty of personal attention.

“We could not be more delighted that Disney chose to collaborate with us,” says Thomas Steinhauer, Regional Vice President and General Manager for Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World Resort. “Our Resort offers incredible amenities never before seen at a stand-alone luxury resort in Florida. We offer an experience that our guests are going to love, plus endless recreational pursuits on property for guests to enjoy on a day off from the parks.”

A recent preview of the resort, now adding its finishing touches, offered a sneak peek at what’s to come for those who can afford its hefty nightly price tag.
