When visitors arrive at the
Gaylord Palms Orlando Resort and Convention Center
in Kissimmee, Florida, they are initially amazed
by the sheer size of this 63 acre property. The
next thing they usually notice is the resort’s close
proximity to
Orlando’s major attractions—Gaylord Palms
is only a five minute shuttle ride to the front
gate of the Walt Disney World resort.

Strategically located in the heart of Central
Florida’s tourism corridor, the Gaylord Palms Orlando
Resort and Convention Center offers the best of
Florida in one location. The design and décor of
this beautiful resort was inspired by classic Florida
architecture, with distinctive themes within the
resort’s 4.5 acre glass enclosed atrium and the
hotel guest rooms.
Guests can enjoy the sights, sounds, and flavors
of Florida’s opulent Emerald Coast, historic St.
Augustine, free-spirited Key West and the mysterious
Everglades without ever leaving the property. Visitors
can enjoy the colorful wonders of a 12,000 square
foot coral reef in Gaylord Palm’s Key West atrium,
listen to Latin rhythms of South Florida, and pose
for photographs in front of a replica of the Castillo
de San Marcos, the 17th century Spanish fort that
still stands in St. Augustine.
The
wide variety of hotel services and amenities at
the Gaylord Palms makes the resort ideal for weddings,
romantic getaways,
spa weekends, or family vacations. The
1,406-room resort features 115 suites, four lounges,
three restaurants, two swimming pools, unique shops,
a full-service spa, on-site childcare center and
live entertainment. The resort is one mile away
from the
Falcon’s Fire Golf Club, which offers
individual play, golf lessons, corporate tournaments,
clinics and schools on a beautiful 6,900-yard course
designed by Rees Jones.
Even
business travelers will feel as if they are on vacation
at the Gaylord Palms. The Gaylord Palms Resort and
Convention Center can accommodate meetings for groups
of 10 to 10,000. The largest ballroom seats up to
5,000 guests for dinner. A dedicated convention

feet of convention, meeting and exhibition and pre-function
space. Three ballrooms and meeting rooms, including
a 178,000-square-foot exhibition hall, are conveniently

The Gaylord Palms Resort in Orlando was designed
with the luxury-conscious traveler in mind. The

the Gaylord Palms resort that offers upscale amenities

options already available at the resort. Emerald
Bay also provides a more intimate setting for smaller
corporate meetings. The resort’s Relâche Spa is

Florida, with 20,000 square feet of space for state-of-the-art
spa treatments, massages, facials, wellness and
