Orlando’s world‑class attractions light up your day, but the excitement doesn’t have to end when you return to your room. Below are our top picks for resorts where you can enjoy unforgettable views—from erupting volcanoes and fireworks to African savannas and Italian‑inspired seaside scenes.

Please note: Depending on the timing of your visit, some experiences may be temporarily modified. Learn more about healthy travel and what’s open in Orlando, and check with your favorite accommodations for their current status.

Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort

Step back into the 1960s at Universal Orlando Resort’s iconic beachside property. Two brand‑new glass towers—Bayside and Beachside—have been added, offering a unique perk: a close‑up view of Krakatau volcano at Universal’s Volcano Bay, the adjacent water park.

From daytime waterfalls to the nightly blaze of Krakatau’s “lava,” guests can relax in their rooms while witnessing a tropical spectacle.

Four Seasons Resort Orlando at Walt Disney World® Resort

Located in the heart of Walt Disney World, the Four Seasons lets you watch fireworks from any park—EPCOT, Hollywood Studios, or Magic Kingdom—right from your luxurious room.

For an open‑air experience, take the elevator to Capa Steakhouse & Bar, the hotel’s rooftop Spanish steakhouse, and enjoy panoramic views above the skyline.

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge

Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge blends Disney resort comfort with a wilderness theme, allowing you to observe giraffes, zebras, and other African wildlife from your window.

Enhance your stay with a private safari encounter before savoring a multi‑course meal at Jiko—The Cooking Place.

Loews Portofino Bay Hotel at Universal Orlando

Inspired by Italy’s Portofino, this hotel showcases charming architecture, cobblestone streets, and a functioning water‑taxi route that transports guests directly to Universal’s parks and CityWalk.

Enjoy outdoor seating at Trattoria del Porto overlooking the picturesque bay—an Italian getaway without leaving Orlando.
