Seasonally heated pool, hot tub, day cabanas, poolside Tiki Bar, 24-hour Corner Pantry and fitness room, plus a full kitchen in every suite
The short answer
WorldQuest Orlando Resort amenities include a heated outdoor pool (heated seasonally to 80°F from mid-October through mid-March), a hot tub, private day cabanas, a poolside Tiki Bar open daily 11am to 7pm, a 24-hour Corner Pantry, a 24-hour fitness room, complimentary Wi-Fi, complimentary self-parking and a Concierge desk. There is no restaurant or room service.
Pool and cabanas
Is the pool at WorldQuest heated, and how do the cabanas work?
The outdoor pool is heated seasonally to 80°F from mid-October through mid-March. It runs from a 3 ft shallow end to 5 ft at the deep end, with a deck of loungers and umbrellas and a hot tub beside it.
Heating is seasonal rather than year-round: from mid-October through mid-March the water is kept at 80°F, and for the rest of the year the Florida sun does the work. The shallow end at 3 ft suits younger swimmers, and the deep end at 5 ft means the whole pool is standing depth for most adults. Use of the pool and hot tub is covered by the resort fee, which is included in your rate when you book direct.
The resort has not published pool hours or age rules for the pool and hot tub on its site; ask the Front Desk when you check in.
Private cabanas by the day
Cabanas are rented by the day and give a family a base at the pool: seating, a ceiling fan and full shade, which matters more than you expect on a Florida afternoon. Reserve at the front desk. Pricing varies by season and availability, so the resort does not publish a fixed rate; the front desk will quote the day’s price when you ask. On busy weeks it is worth asking on the day you arrive rather than waiting for the day you want it.
Food and drink
What food and drink is available on site?
There is no restaurant and no room service at WorldQuest. What there is: a poolside Tiki Bar, coffee in the lobby every morning, a 24-hour Corner Pantry, and a full kitchen in every suite.
Poolside Tiki Bar
Open daily from 11am to 7pm, with happy hour from 3 to 4pm and a daily drink special. The Tiki Bar serves food, cocktails, beer and Starbucks® coffee, so lunch by the pool and an early dinner for the children are both possible without leaving the property. The current menu is on the Tiki Bar menu page.
24-hour Corner Pantry
The Corner Pantry in the lobby is open around the clock and stocks snacks, cold drinks, frozen meals, breakfast items and the essentials people forget: it is the answer to a late arrival, a missed dinner or a 6am cereal shortage. Coffee is also served in the lobby from 7 to 11am.
Grocery delivery
Stock the kitchen before you arrive
Order through Orlando Grocery Express or any local store and have it arrive with you. Publix and Walmart are about two miles away if you prefer to shop.

Services and security
What services does the front desk and Concierge provide?
Concierge desk
The Concierge handles park tickets, transport and dining suggestions. Theme park tickets are sold at the Concierge Desk daily from 7:00am to 12:00pm. For anything else, call or text the Concierge on (407) 858-8569 between 7:00am and 9:00pm. As a Walt Disney World® Good Neighbor Hotel, the resort can combine park tickets with your accommodation in a single booking.

The property is gated with controlled access and has on-site security. That covers who can drive in and who is on the grounds; it is not a claim about noise, which the resort does not measure. Full details of check-in, fees, pets, smoking and packages are on the Resort Policies page.
Transportation
How do guests get to the parks from the resort?
A complimentary shuttle runs to EPCOT® and Disney’s Hollywood Studios®. It is included in the resort fee, subject to availability and change, and seats are reserved at the Concierge desk at least 30 minutes in advance. Shuttles to Universal Orlando Resort are $5.00 per person, per trip. Lake Buena Vista Factory Stores runs its own complimentary shuttle, separate from the resort’s.
Driving is the other option: self-parking at the resort is complimentary, the Walt Disney World® Resort is 2.4 miles away and every Disney theme park is within 10 to 15 minutes. The Disney Shuttle and Getting Here page has the full picture, and the Location and Resort Map page has the published distances to every park and attraction.
The honest list
What is not on site at WorldQuest?
A condo-style resort trades some hotel services for space and a kitchen. So that nobody is surprised at check-in, here is what the resort does not offer.
- No restaurant. The Tiki Bar serves food from 11am to 7pm; outside those hours it is your kitchen, the Corner Pantry, delivery or a short drive.
- No room service. Grocery delivery and your own kitchen are the substitutes.
- Breakfast is not included. Lobby coffee from 7 to 11am is complimentary; breakfast items are in the Corner Pantry or your fridge.
- No daily housekeeping. Available on request at $140.00 plus tax with 24 to 48 hours’ notice.
- No laundry or dry-cleaning service. Every suite has a washer and dryer; several dry cleaners are within two miles.
- No meeting or event space. Groups are welcome for guest-room accommodation only; see the Groups page.
- No airport shuttle. Rental car, rideshare or taxi from Orlando International Airport.
- Pets not permitted. Service animals are welcome throughout the resort.
The resort has also not published pool hours, front desk hours, fitness room equipment or internet speeds. Where this page says “ask the Front Desk” or “ask the reservations team”, that is why.
