#2 of 6 hotels in Celebration by Axel's take. Celebration is #10 of 12 places to stay in Orlando. The best hotels in Celebration, ranked · Where to stay in Orlando

Axel's take: 8.6/10

A strong family resort if you'll use the water park and tolerate the extras. a sprawling upscale 4-star water-park and convention resort near Disney, scored for what it is.

Gaylord Palms is a sprawling upscale 4-star convention resort in Kissimmee, best booked as part of the vacation rather than just somewhere to sleep. Its garden-filled atrium and Cypress Springs water park give families plenty to do between theme-park days. The hotel completed its room and lobby renovation in January 2025; recent Expedia guests repeatedly praise cleanliness, helpful staff and the pools, while Booking.com’s overall ratings are similarly strong.

The trade-off is big-resort bustle rather than intimate luxury. Tripadvisor feedback is more mixed, with recurring concerns about expensive extras, noise and uneven service when busy; pool crowds can also frustrate families. A daily resort fee and separate parking charges weaken the value if you’re out all day. We’d choose it for a water-park-focused family break or an on-site conference, but skip it for a quiet couples’ escape or a simple theme-park base.

  • Best for: families planning water-park days; conference guests bringing family; travelers who enjoy large, self-contained resorts

  • Watch out for: daily resort fee and separate parking charges; busy pools and convention crowds; noise and occasional service inconsistencies

  • Location: Near Disney in Kissimmee; plan on driving or using the resort’s Disney shuttle rather than walking to parks.

  • Rooms: Most rooms were renovated in January 2025; atrium-view balconies are distinctive, but noise can be a trade-off.

  • Cleanliness: A clear strength across Booking.com ratings and recent Expedia reviews, despite occasional reported lapses.

  • Service: Staff receive substantial praise, though Tripadvisor guests describe some check-in and request-handling problems.

  • Amenities: Garden atrium, water park, pools, spa, gym and multiple dining options; standard water-park access covers four guests.

  • Fees and surprises: Daily resort fee; parking and breakfast cost extra. Resort-fee inclusions include Disney shuttles and water-park admission.
