outer lodges are named Sago Cay, Conch Key, Boca Chica, and Big Pine Key. The resort is very
well laid out with each lodge separated by meticulously maintained gardens, lamp lighted pathways,
and sparkling pools. Nothing is more than a couple minutes walk through the lovely resort grounds.
Each lodge location has it's own benefits.
The Grand Floridian's main building is nothing short of gorgeous.
It houses the magnificent 5 story Grand Lobby, which is loaded
with shops, restaurants, and more. Above, and surrounding the
soaring lobby area, is the Royal Palm Club. The Royal Palm Club
is accessible only through using a key in the gold concierge
elevators. Royal Palm Club consists of standard and deluxe
concierge guest rooms and suites and a spacious lounge
overlooking the lobby below. The main building itself and the
views from the rooms are spectacular. The rooms may have
anything from a magical castle view, to a lovely waterfall pool
view, or an expansive view of the lagoon. The second floor of
the lobby is where you exit the resort to board a monorail
to the Magic Kingdom or the other magic kingdom resorts.
The room numbers at the
Grand Floridian are coded.
The first digit of the four
digit room number is the
lodge, the second is the
floor, the third and fourth
are the room number.
There are laundry facilities
in all buildings except
Sugarloaf Key. There are
two washing machines and
two dryers in each lodge.
Conch Key would be the
most convenient from
Sugarloaf. The resort also
offers laundry service for
a fee.
From the farthest point
across the resort is at
most a 10 minute walk.
Some things that guests
