The Fountains
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.
AttractionsOrlando 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 Fountains 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.
On-Site RestaurantsFor a casual yet refined dining experience, try H2O, The Fountains's 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!
AccommodationsThe Fountains's two-bedroom villas are richly appointed with all the comforts of home and elegant décor. Most 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 Robb & Stucky Interiors. Kitchens feature stainless steel appliances, custom cabinets, and granite countertops. The Fountains three-bedroom suites include your very own game room with a pool table and dartboard, huge balconies, elegant bedrooms, and unique bathrooms that resemble spas.
Area InfoIt’s obvious that the Orlando area is stuffed with famous attractions, thrill rides, theme parks, incredible dining, and world-class entertainment—good thing The Fountains is conveniently located on International Drive, just minutes from everything Orlando has to offer. Walt Disney World®, Magic Kingdom®, EPCOT®, Disney-MGM Studios, and Disney’s Animal Kingdom® are staples of the Orlando experience. Universal Studios®, Islands of Adventure, SeaWorld® Adventure Park, and Discovery Cove® are also close by. Nighttime entertainment is easy to come by. Downtown Disney® includes The Marketplace, West Side, and Pleasure Island for all your dining, shopping and nightlife desires. For an educational experience, Orlando Science Center and Kennedy Space Center make great day trips.
