Best Spas in Orlando

"The Lake Buena Vista Resort Village makes our list of cool and unusual hotels in Orlando simply because of its gigantic pirate ship!. The pirate ship sits in the middle of the resort and contains a slide that drops guests into a large pool. After you have pretended to be a pirate jumping overboard a few times, you can also enjoy the poolside bar, Frankie Farrell’s Irish Pub, or the Reflections Spa/Salon."

"This was our last evening at Lake Buena Vista Resort and we wanted to make it count. The pool was great and I also took the relaxing evening to get our laundry done."

"Spacious Suites And Villas, Two Free-Form Pools, Tennis Courts And Free Parking Gratify Guests At The Non-Smoking Star Island Resort And Club, Located Just Five Miles From Disney World. The Star Island Has 466 Spacious Units Arrayed In A Series Of Three-Floor Buildings On Lush Tropical Grounds. Enjoy Flat-Panel Tvs With Premium Cable Channels And Dvd Players In All Unites."

"Waldorf Astoria Spa uses locally sourced ingredients paired with tranquil services. In fact, the spa infuses Tupelo honey into its line of skin treatments, products and therapies. Treatments include facial options, body wraps, massage packages, and hand and foot."

"Classic cars at Old Town (Pic: Michel Curi) In the evening we stumbled across a cute tourist area called Old Town back along the 192 highway in Kissimmee. This was a strange mix of illuminated fairground rides and a bungee swing alongside a Western-style highstreet with funky shops and an imitation ‘small town America’ feel. There was also a car show with classic 1950s and 60s cars on when we were there."

"Located to the northeast in Orlando and just a few minutes away by car, Orlando Fashion Square can be your next stop if you want to do some light shopping. Regardless of whether you want to buy jewelry, or you’re looking for training shoes, this mall has got you covered. There are events held here every season and you can check out their movie theater as well."

"Now for the strangest mall in Orlando, the Fashion Square Mall over by Winter Park. This is by far the weirdest mall I’ve ever been to, and no matter what day or time you go, it’s always eerily empty. Aside from a couple of good staples, like a Macy’s and a Hot Topic, the mall consists almost entirely of off-brand stories, quick-service restaurants."

"Orlando Fashion Square can be found in Northeast Orlando, a stone’s throw from Orlando Executive Airport. Whether you’re searching for a pair of new trainers, some new jewelry or a spot of lunch, there’s always a wide choice available. Seasonal events are held at the mall and there’s also a movie theater."

"This relatively new player in the brunch game made believers out of skeptics in South Florida and is doing the same to diners in Dr. Phillips. They come for AmSo’s brunch bites (doughnut holes), social shareables (Buffalo chicken fries), and substantial alci-soaking fare like Key West shrimp cakes and country-fried bone-in pork chops. A raw bar features East Coast oysters while the boisterous bar bar sees clusters of mirth-filled merrymakers fueled by frozés, bloody marys, sangrias, and $15 bottomless bubbly."

"Located on Sand Lake Road, American Social offers everything you could wish for in a brunch menu, from small bites to heartier breakfast dishes. We recommend trying the Avocado Toast with Egg (pictured below), the Donut Holes and the Smoked Salmon Benedict."
