Overview

For those seeking a more intimate and sophisticated base for their Orlando holiday, the Walt Disney World Swan Reserve is the perfect choice. This 14-storey boutique hotel combines contemporary design with high-end luxury. The guest rooms are a standout feature, designed with a chic, residential feel and featuring floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the space with natural light and offer spectacular views of the surrounding area.

Official Disney Partner Hotel status offers guests extra perks such as Early Theme Park Entry every single day (with a valid Disney ticket) and Extended Evening Hours on select nights. Complimentary transportation is provided to the Disney Parks, though the short stroll to EPCOT and Disney’s Hollywood Studios is often the preferred way to start a magical day.

As part of the wider resort complex, you aren't just limited to the facilities at the Reserve. Guests enjoy full access to the amenities at the adjacent Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin, meaning you have an incredible world of leisure and dining right at your fingertips, including 23 restaurants, three health clubs and six swimming pools. While the hotel offers a private, tranquil atmosphere, you are never far from the fun of Walt Disney World Resort.
