Legoland Florida Resort

The kids had the best experience.

The rooms are beautifully themed but they are not two rooms. There is no door that separates or gives privacy to the adult sleeping area. It is all just one area with a single bathroom. The smores are done over a gas fire pit in the middle of a park type area, next to the mini golf, no camp fire feel what so ever. The heat coming from the gas flame, mixed with the short sticks that are given, is super hot so not worth trying in the summer months in the Fl heat. You can't hold your hand close enough to the fire to melt your marshmallow without burning your hand. Bring mini figures with you to trade. All the staff in the hotel and the park have figures/lego people to trade. The all day drink cups are completely worth it at the park so get that in your package. Be careful to fill them for your younger kids because the cups have a chip in them, if a smaller child makes a mistake and doesn't completely fill the cup you have to wait 10 minutes before you can finish or start the process again. A lot of things have changed at the hotel with the new ownership, like the children no longer get a fresh package of legos each day you stay. They only get legos on the first day now. You use to buy a complete package with parking, breakfast, everything included and pay for that knowing you wouldn't see a charge for anything later. Not anymore and don't give them a different card than what you want your room charges on because they don't complete your charges until check-out and will charge the last card used not the card you paid to book the room and approved them to pay for the room with. They are still a cashless business so be prepared for that (hotel and park). Book master builder classes in advance because they fill up fast. The woman who teaches these classes is amazing and has been there for years now. My kids just love her and beg me to book classes, even the older ones (they are 12 now & still enjoy her classes). Dance party in the lobby every night is fun for the younger kids. The older kids don't care to go to anymore. They dance in their PJs so bring cool PJ to show off with their favorites on them. The lobby is like a playground and like a playground, not every parent watches their child so watch yours to be sure they don't get hit with a lego or something if your worried about rough housing. It does happen, this hotel is a kids hotel-built and geared toward kids so they kind of go wild and I've seen a few "Karen" type mothers get a bit sidewise about it as well. Elevators have music and lights in them and the kids love to dance in them. The pools have floating lego foams in them and the kids can build stuff to play in the pool with. We have build a raft, a castle, all kinds of stuff. There use to be more to do at the hotel, actives throughout the day but new ownership has cut that out. Only the pool, dance party, master builder classes, and evening stuff after 6pm. Mostly geared toward the little kids (5-9 yrs old). I didn't see a single meet and gr

This is was our fourth time staying here. We always stay at the pirate Island side of the hotel so I really can’t compare but it is always in great condition, very well-maintained, and the rooms were always immaculate. This time was no exception. Our rooms were spotless And have very cool theming. The proximity, being able to walk to the Legoland entrance, is definitely the key seller here. Because it was a holiday weekend it was a little bit crowded but still very well-maintained. Both pools were open, the restaurants were busy but not overwhelmed. We checked out on Tuesday after the holiday, breakfast was awesome that day because it was so quiet. This is a great hotel and definitely worth to stay if you’re visiting this park. I definitely want to mention Jose from the skyline restaurant who remembered us from a visit several months ago. We also had an exceptional check-in experience with Nancy at the front desk. We were traveling with another family member who required an accessible room, she was very helpful in giving us close to one another and ensuring that she had the proper accommodations. The activities for kids at this hotel is one of the reasons we stay here. It definitely sets this trip apart from others. They honor if their way to make sure the kids have fun (and the parents get a good night’s sleep) This was our first time trying breakfast at shipwreck. The food was great and service was excellent.
