Omni Orlando Resort at ChampionsGate 

Good times and great golf

This deluxe hotel is the perfect place if you’re looking to balance time in Orlando’s theme parks with relaxing days away from the action in a large resort.

If you’re planning on spending plenty of time on your Orlando holiday relaxing and enjoying the facilities of a resort hotel, Omni Orlando Resort at Championsgate is an excellent option. As well as a complex of swimming pools, there is a good choice of restaurants, two acclaimed golf courses (plus adventure golf!), and a large spa. Restless types will find activities to keep them occupied during days around the resort, and when you’re ready to hit the parks, there’s complimentary transportation to Walt Disney World – you just need to reserve a spot on the bus.
