For the little ones: Character breakfasts, Splash Zone and in-room amenities
When you stay at Four Seasons, you’re a VIP no matter your age. Even babies and toddlers will find joy waiting for them around every corner. One of the most popular experiences for young guests is Good Morning Breakfast with Goofy & His Pals, offered every Thursday and Saturday morning at Ravello. Feast on an assortment of breakfast favourites while Goofy and other beloved characters make their way around the room, charming kids and adults alike. Another perk of being young? Children 5 and younger dine free throughout the Resort (excluding character breakfasts), and the complimentary Pasta & Play service at Ravello invites children ages 4 to 12 to come out to the Spa Lawn for post-meal supervised activities while the adults relax and finish their dinner.

While guests of all ages could easily spend a day wandering the five-acre Explorer Island water park, the Splash Zone is sure to be a highlight for the youngest family members. Its zero-entry shallow wade-in areas, choreographed fountains, towering columns, fog nozzles, water curtains and other interactive features are bound to bring out the smiles. The 7,590-square-foot (705-square-metre) Family Pool also features a toddler slide and a gradual, sloping entry that’s perfect for wading.
Parents of babies and toddlers will also appreciate the breadth of amenities available at Four Seasons upon check-in. From cribs to diaper pails to in-room footstools and child-size bathrobes, the Resort team has considered every detail to make your trip as seamless as possible. Forget something at home? Want to make sure your room is stocked with snacks before your return at naptime? All you need to do is ask, and the team will make it happen.
Kids For All Seasons is an engaging, complimentary program for children ages 4 to 12 – the only one of its kind you’ll find in Orlando.
The best part of completing the Explorer’s Activity Guide? The complimentary scoop of gelato at Lickety Split that comes with the “True Explorer Certification.”
The two waterslides at The Mansion are a kid favourite.
For young children: A water park, kids club and dive-in movies
For children ages 4 to 12, the Resort’s Kids For All Seasons complimentary camp is available daily from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. Housed in The Mansion – a stately yet whimsical structure located on Explorer Island – the fully supervised program lets you drop the kids off for as little as one hour or for the full day so you can have a little time to yourself while they participate in a variety of fun activities, creative games and outdoor recreation. The space features a large, air-conditioned playroom with an interactive volcano play structure, plus an outside playground and spacious lawn area where the staff takes kids to play various outdoor games. On Saturday nights, Kids For All Seasons also hosts the Explorer Island Takeover from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm, which for a small fee includes dinner and a special swim shirt to take home.
Children this age will also love the new Explorer’s Activity Guide program, which makes exploring the sprawling Resort even more fun. Upon check-in, they’ll receive an eight-page booklet featuring characters inspired by the animals often spotted around the Resort – Freckles the Fawn, Tommy the Turtle, Bonnie the Bunny, Freddie the Fox, and Olly the Owl. Kids can then complete challenges and activities spread across the grounds, earning a stamp at each stop. Once they’ve completed the booklet, they’ll receive the “True Explorer Certification,” which comes with a complimentary scoop of gelato at Lickety Split, the Orlando Resort’s lobby ice cream shop. In addition to the booklet, kids will also get a plush version of an animal pal and will find an “Explorer’s Bedtime Story” card at their bedside inviting families to listen to a custom bedtime story featuring their new animal friends.
Spending a day at the on-site water park is also a must for this crew. They’ll love sliding down the two waterslides, splashing in the pools and making new friends along the way. For more quality time together, be sure to bring the whole family to the weekly dive-in movies screened at the Family Pool. Watch a family-friendly film on the billboard-size screen while floating in the water or relaxing on a lounge chair with popcorn in hand.
The Hideout is a dedicated space for kids 12 and older to hang out and make friends.
The Lazy River winds through Explorer Island, with many scenic stops along the way.
Get the whole family together for a tennis match or a tennis lesson with the on-site pro.
For teens: A dedicated teen lounge, video games and lazy river
Teenagers can be tricky to please, but the Resort has you covered. Created specifically for kids ages 12 and older, The Hideout is a dedicated space for teens to unwind. Tucked away behind the Splash Zone on Explorer Island, it features a gaming room with multiple video game consoles, a multiplayer PAC-MAN game, billiards, Foosball and more, making it the perfect spot to hang out and meet new friends. Want the whole family to get in on the games, too? Kids under 12 are also allowed with adult supervision.
Young athletes will love the basketball court, sand volleyball court and a multi-use turf sport court located right next to The Hideout for shooting hoops and a variety of outdoor games. Teens can also stroll to the water park pool, ride down the waterslides and float down the lazy river. Note that the Lazy River isn’t typical: outfitted with two spray cannons, a 9-foot (2.75-metre) waterfall and a rapids section, this lazy river is both relaxing and stimulating.
Another option for both teens and the whole family is to play a match on one of the Resort’s three Har-Tru tennis courts. Book a tennis lesson for your teen with the on-site tennis pro, Alain Labrecque, to sharpen their skills, or include the whole family.
Adults can unwind with a round of golf at Tranquilo Golf Course, a Tom Fazio–designed 18-hole course that is also a Certified Audubon Sanctuary.
Take some time for yourself at the Resort Spa.
Whether it’s for date night or an evening with friends, head to Capa, the Michelin-starred, Spanish-style steakhouse perched on the Resort’s 17th floor.
For adults: Golf, spa and award-winning dining
Adults, this Orlando family Resort has certainly not forgotten about you. Here, family time can seamlessly transition to “me time” and back again. When you want to enjoy the water but need a quick kid break, the Oasis Pool is a tranquil, adults-only pool where you can go for a swim listening to underwater music, soak in the whirlpool, and enjoy a drink while lounging by the water overlooking the nearby lake. For even more privacy, book an Oasis Cabana, located right by the pool. Your reservation comes with a welcome beverage, a fridge stocked with four drinks of your choice, a USD 75 food and beverage credit, a variety of in-cabana amenities, and personalized service throughout your pool time.
Be sure to book a relaxing treatment at the Resort’s Spa, and unwind in the indoor and outdoor relaxation areas, including a steam room, spa tub, tranquillity lounge, high-tech experience showers, a solarium and Somadome meditation pods. For something a little more active, drop in on one of the daily fitness classes to stay on track with your routine while on vacation, or book a round at Tranquilo Golf Course. The Tom Fazio–designed 18-hole course is a Certified Audubon Sanctuary surrounded by picturesque scenery and protected wetlands, making it a beautiful place to play for any skill level.
While the kids are having a blast at Kids For All Seasons or at the Saturday night Explorer Island Takeover, book a table at Michelin-starred Capa, a Spanish-style steakhouse perched on the Resort’s 17th-floor rooftop. Take a seat on the patio and indulge in shareable small plates, fresh Florida seafood and expertly grilled cuts prepared on a wood-burning grill, all while enjoying one of the area’s best views of the nightly fireworks. After planning such an unforgettable vacation, you deserve a magical evening all your own.
The 10th anniversary celebrations kick off August 10, 2024, with the Starry Night Celebration at Capa.
In early September, the adults-only speakeasy, Epilouge, will open its doors.
As part of the year-long celebration, a poolside version of Lickety Split will be popping up in Spring 2025.
10th anniversary celebrations
To commemorate a decade of magic, Four Seasons is pulling out all the stops during a year-long celebration, kicking off on August 10 with the Starry Night Celebration at Capa. Those who purchase advance tickets to the private event can indulge in multiple carving stations, a raw bar, paella, signature cocktails, live musicians, dancers and more, culminating in a dazzling fireworks display.
Later in the year, adults can look forward to the brand-new adults-only speakeasy, Epilogue, slated to open in early September to serve up artfully prepared cocktails and gourmet bar snacks in a mid-century modern setting. Come fall, you’ll find plenty of Halloween-inspired family activities, including Halloween play tents and several candy stops around the Resort, while in December, a Retro Roller Skating Rink will open up in the Resort’s Palm Ballroom for some festive fun. On top of that, Spring 2025 will see a pop-up poolside version of the beloved Lickety Split, as well as a variety of spring break and summer activities for everyone.
