You can choose between soft orange or deep blue color schemes, though all units share the same well-rounded amenity roster.
Gayot Gayot
"This elaborate, decidedly Southern resort... pays tribute to distinctive regions and eras of Florida that are rich in history and charm, though often underrepresented."

"It may be centered on a convention center, but this sprawling 63-acre Marriott resort in Kissimmee also attracts leisure travelers."

"Guests at this resort are stranded on a breathtaking Pacific island paradise, with a lagoon-style pool and play area, Emeril’s Tchop Chop restaurant (a must for adults), and superior service."

"The comfortable rooms here are decked out in bamboo to enhance the “tropical” theme, while the kids will enjoy the lagoon-style pool. $289."

"Competing just below its siblings Hard Rock Hotel and the Portofino Bay Hotel, this savvy South Pacific wannabe is the most laid back of the three." Full review
Gayot Gayot
"Orlando is no stranger to themed hotels and the Royal Pacific, a member of the Loews hotels, may be one of the most unique."
