Set within 54 acres surrounding the serene natural setting of Lake Eve, and located along Orlando's popular International Drive, The Fountains offers everything you would expect from a world-class Bluegreen resort as well as the convenience of a central location.
Attractions at The Fountains
Orlando is famous for its amazing attractions, unbridled family fun and exquisite weather. Now, The Fountains has its own claim to fame:
Wakoola Springs. This 75,000-square-foot, water park-like tropical oasis sets itself apart from an everyday pool with two twisting water slides, a zero-entry pool, interactive water fountains, two hot tubs, and an on-site bar and grill called
Wakoola Grill.
With so many on-site amenities for both adults and kids, not to mention the hundreds of attractions in and around
Orlando, you'll want to plan an extended stay at The Fountain to fit it all in. The beautiful Lake Eve offers fishing and paddleboats and features a boardwalk and pier. Enjoy a 6,000-square-foot indoor/outdoor pool, two hot tubs, a convenient pool bar and playground.
An immense 20,000-square-foot clubhouse houses a gift shop, lounge area, and a kid’s activity center with video games, air hockey and billiard tables. You can also stop in for a drink or a bite to eat at H2O and Mug o' Joe's.
The Fountains On-Site Restaurants
For a casual yet refined dining experience with Bluegreen, try
H2O, our water-themed bar. Take a seat at our award-winning “bubble” bar and enjoy a martini or glass of wine while the backlit bubbles mesmerize and relax you! Hang out and watch TV on our three big-screens while you snack on some tasty buffalo chicken wings or indulge in a hot grilled Italian Panini sandwich for dinner.
Give in to temptation at
Mug o’ Joe’s! If the sumptuous smell of one of our gourmet coffee drinks, such as caramel latte foam or chocolate hazelccino, wafting across the lobby doesn't grab your attention, then an assortment of fresh-baked breakfast pastries or our hot breakfast Panini certainly will. Your taste buds will thank you for the treat!
Accommodations at The Fountains
Our two-bedroom villas are richly appointed with all the comforts of home and elegant décor. Most Bluegreen vacation villas feature a screened balcony overlooking the lake, a fully equipped kitchen, garden tub and surround sound stereo system. You’ll surely find yourself enjoying the spacious atmosphere of each vacation villa.
Also available, although harder to come by, are the all-new 2,725-sq-ft Presidential Suites located in a beautiful new building overlooking Wakoola Springs. These Presidential Suites truly have it all including furnishings and interior design by Florida’s prestigious
