Summer Bay Resort Orlando by Exploria Resorts is a 400-Acre Lakeside Resort with a 64-Acre private lake located near Orlando’s best theme parks. After getting everyone settled in your condo, change into swimsuits, grab water wings and goggles, slather everyone with SPF and prepare to get in touch with your inner mermaid. The resort has 6 Outdoor Pools (2 are Open 24 hours per day). There are 2 Poolside Bars, Big Kahuna’s Poolside Bar and Grill and Kokomo’s Lakeside Tiki Bar. The resort’s water playground and adventure park, Buccaneer Bay, is sure to be a big hit with the kids. Hungry? Stop by Shipwreck Cafe for fish & chips, chicken tenders or a hot dog. Treat the kids to a funnel cake while you enjoy a strawberry daiquiri. But wait, there’s more! The Summer Bay Resort also has an Aqua Park and the marina offers water sports. Play a game on the tennis, basketball or bocce ball courts or a round of on-site mini golf. Visit the Recreation Pavilion where you’ll find daily scheduled activities for families and kids along with a movie theater, arcade, billiards and more. No wonder Summer Bay Orlando was awarded a 2016 Certificate of Excellence by TripAdvisor.
