Luxury Holidays At Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, Orlando

Disney’s flagship resort and crown jewel of the Walt Disney World® Resort, Disney's Grand Floridian Resort & Spa draws its inspiration from Florida seaside ‘palace hotels’ of 19th century America’s Gilded Age.

Positioned on the shores of the Seven Seas Lagoon, it commands spectacular views of Cinderella’s Castle and the Magic Kingdom Park's fireworks display. All rooms and suites are ideal for couples or families, with king-size or two queen-size beds and private balcony. Club level accommodation is also available.

Climate

Boasting sunny days – up to six hours of sunshine a day – November to May (winter) is a pleasant time to visit Florida. Winter is almost tropical in climate – very mild, but sometimes with relatively short periods of cold weather, however frost and snow is not very common. From June to October (summer), you can expect higher temperatures and increased humidity. Sunshine hours can peak to as many as ten, but afternoon cloud build-up can lead to heavy rain and thunderstorms.

Florida has the most thunderstorms of any of the states, and sometimes these are severe tropical storms, or even hurricanes. June to November is hurricane season with the months of August and September being particularly susceptible.
