Just saying the name, the Waldorf Astoria, calls to mind the stuff of legends. The iconic New York City hotel was home to the glitterati, including Marilyn Monroe, Elizabeth Taylor and Frank Sinatra. Now, the Waldorf Astoria Orlando has created its own legacy. 

This refined property is a Forbes four-star resort, an official Walt Disney World property and has everything you could ever want on your honeymoon. A top-notch spa with a private salt room. Check. A spectacular steakhouse (Bull & Bear, named as one of the Top 100 Restaurants in the United States by OpenTable) with flawless cuts, imaginative drinks and over-the-top desserts (we recommend the Ring of Yuzu). Absolutely. A luxurious suite with grand views of the property and the resort corridor we’re you’ll want for nothing. You better believe it.

If you do find there’s anything else you need, it’s available at the touch of a button.

When it’s time to lay by the pool, do so from the privacy of your private cabana. You can rent it for the entire day if you wish, and order cuisine from the poolside grill, Aquamarine. We mean cuisine—this is a next-level poolside grill. Try the Maine lobster and shrimp wrap. Or,  float the day away on the lazy river at the adjacent sister property, Signia by Hilton Orlando Bonnet Creek.

And, whether capping off the night or your experience at the Waldorf, make a point to visit the Peacock Alley bar, inspired by the contours of a peacock’s feathers, in the art deco style of its New York predecessor. A fine time for The Waldorf Cocktail, wouldn’t you say?
