Walt Disney World may be the epicenter of childhood wonder, but at Four Seasons Resort Orlando, the true enchantment lies in its elevated experience designed for adults. Tucked inside the private, residential Golden Oak community—a rarefied zip code where luxury meets Disney—this AAA Five Diamond Award property redefines what it means to do Disney in style.

Spacious, Sophisticated, and Surprisingly Private: The Rooms That Set the Standard

For starters, the accommodations are in a league of their own. With the largest standard guest rooms in Orlando, even the most basic stays feel lavish. Every room includes a king bed, queen-size sleeper sofa, a five-piece marble bathroom with a deep soaking tub (which is adorned with an encapsulated rose, a nod to Beauty and the Beast), Bose surround sound, an in-room iPad, and a fully furnished balcony. Guests can even customize their in-room mini-fridge at no charge—just pay for what you consume. Park View rooms and suites offer front-row seats to the nightly Magic Kingdom fireworks display, viewable from your terrace or the 17th-floor rooftop at Capa. For those seeking true exclusivity, there’s the Ultimate Suites Experience, a private buyout of the entire 16th floor—including the Presidential and Royal Suites—creating a private 21-room residence in the sky.  Speaking of the Royal Suite, it’s the largest in Central Florida. This sprawling space can be expanded into a 9-bedroom residential-style retreat, ideal for multigenerational families, celebratory getaways, or VIPs seeking utter privacy. With interiors that feel like a modern Mediterranean estate, it’s no wonder the property frequently hosts royalty, A-listers, and culinary elite.

Capa: Florida’s Rooftop Culinary Crown Jewel With Michelin Stars, Spanish Drama, and Fireworks ViewsPhoto Credit: Four Seasons Resort at Walt Disney World

But the true crown jewel of the Four Seasons Orlando is Capa, the rooftop Spanish-influenced steakhouse that has achieved Michelin Star status four years running. Perched on the 17th floor and offering panoramic views of the resort’s lakes, woodlands, and fireworks, Capa is more than a restaurant—it’s a full-sensory experience. The open kitchen crackles with energy as chefs work over a wood-fired grill, turning out Basque-style small plates, Spanish charcuterie, and prime cuts of steak. The menu includes over 48% Spanish ingredients, earning the restaurant an official “Restaurant From Spain” certification by the Embassy of Spain. Capa’s newly refreshed interiors are as theatrical as the food—its red fan ceiling installation evokes the drama of a flamenco dancer’s dress, and moody lighting sets the tone for romantic evenings and milestone dinners. The wine list leans heavily Spanish, with over 60% of the bottles from Spain, and the Michelin Guide has taken note. The restaurant was not only honored again this year but also served as the host venue for the 2025 Michelin Guide Awards Ceremony, firmly positioning Capa—and Orlando—as culinary destinations.

Ravello: A Taste of Italy, Certified and Celebrated

If Capa is the star, Ravello is the soul. Overseen by Executive Chef Fabrizio Schenardi of Torino, Italy, this vibrant trattoria brings the Amalfi Coast to Central Florida. Every dish—from the pastas and breads to the sauces and desserts—is made in-house. Ravello holds the Platinum-level 100% Italian Taste Certification, the highest level awarded by Milan-based ITA0039. It’s the only restaurant in the United States to receive this distinction, and its Michelin Recommendation is well-earned. Dining here feels both authentic and effortless, whether you’re indulging in a multi-course Italian dinner or enjoying the popular Disney character breakfast with Goofy and friends. [To which we highly suggest you make a reservation at, regardless of whether or not you have kids — the wait can be long.]

A Spa Experience with Serious Tech and Tranquility

Just steps away, the 18-room Four Seasons Spa offers a world of wellness unlike anything else in the area. Highlights include six couples’ suites, signature body rituals using local citrus and botanicals, and a full spectrum of skincare, massage, and body therapies. But the real innovation? The resort recently introduced a robotic massage treatment, which uses cutting-edge tech to deliver precision muscle relief—especially popular with athletes and wellness travelers. Between that and the bespoke “Vita-Glow” facials or the immersive hydrotherapy experiences, this spa caters to both purists and the wellness-curious. Finish your treatment in the tranquility lounge, browse the boutique, or head to the 24-hour fitness center, which includes Peloton bikes, strength equipment, and private training options.

A Luxury Playground for Kids—That Frees Up the Adults

If you’ve ever wished for a Disney day without crowds, noise, or chaos, welcome to the Oasis Pool. The only 21+ adults-only pool on Disney property, this tranquil, infinity-edge retreat is lined with white cabanas, thoughtfully landscaped greenery, and underwater audio to soundtrack your swim. Every hour, attentive staff circulate with surprise amenities—infused water, frozen treats, cooling face towels—making this the kind of pool you linger in all afternoon. It’s not just serene; it’s elevated serenity.

While the resort is a haven for adults, kids have their own incredible world, too. Explorer Island, a five-acre wonderland, features waterslides, a lazy river, a splash zone, sports courts, gaming lounges, oversized lawn games, and outdoor movies on a giant Starstruck screen. Best of all? The Kids For All Seasons club—offered complimentary, seven days a week—entertains children ages 4 to 12 with crafts, games, and adventures, all while parents sneak away for that Capa dinner or spa afternoon.

Golf, pickleball, and access to Disney World — oh my!

Those seeking more activity should be aware that the property also boasts two Har-Tru tennis courts and four pickleball courts, as well as the Four Seasons Golf & Sports Club, anchored by a Tom Fazio-designed 18-hole course, which is always listed among the best in Central Florida.

While the resort is fully capable of entertaining adult guests without ever leaving the grounds, those looking for a touch of Disney magic still have access to the best perks. Four Seasons guests enjoy early park entry, complimentary luxury motorcoach transportation to all four Disney parks, and the option to arrange private character meet-and-greets in one of the resort’s event spaces.
