Resort with Lazy River

Nestled on a sprawling, 500-acre property, JW Marriott Orlando Grande Lakes has recently undergone a multi-million-dollar renovation making it an ideal base for those who want to explore Orlando or simply enjoy a sunny family vacation. One of the highlights of the resort is the Grande Lakes Water Park which features a lazy river, Headwaters Slide Tower with three waterslides, restful lagoons and luxury cabanas. Visitors can grab a float and relax on the quarter-mile, 670,000-gallon lazy river which meanders through the water park's heart, flowing through lush tropical greenery with jets, waterfalls and bridges connecting various pools and coves. This slow-paced attraction is a primary draw for visitors looking for a more leisurely experience. For adults seeking tranquility away from the park's commotion, The Sanctuary acts as a tranquil enclave, secluded from the rest of the water park by the gentle curves of the lazy river. Nestled in the center of the water park, it presents a panoramic view of the park's various facilities and points of interest. The Sanctuary, a unique area designated for adults only, is designed for those in pursuit of a serene haven amidst the lively atmosphere of the park. The luxury cabanas available throughout the water park provide visitors with a private retreat to relax in style and comfort. Lounge chairs, a mini-fridge and a ceiling fan keep guests cool and refreshed during their visit.
