Legoland Beach Retreat: A Spot for Relaxation and Fun
Finding a Florida vacation spot that appeals to both parents and kids can be a challenge, especially when trying to make sure it’s close to the available theme parks. At the Legoland Beach Resort, you’ll find the perfect balance of kid-friendly activities, areas for parents to hang out, and early theme park access.
This Legoland Florida accommodation in Winter Haven, FL, provides an ideal getaway centered around LEGOs, fun bright colors, and a beach theme. From the bungalows you’ll be staying in to the giant pool you’ll be relaxing by, you’ll find an ideal family-friendly getaway at Legoland Beach Retreat.
Each day, wake up to a delicious, complimentary family-style breakfast before heading to the nearby theme parks via complimentary transportation that takes you right to the park entrance. When you need a break from the crowds, follow the LEGO logo back to the Legoland Beach Resort for hands-on LEGO building activities. After a long day, you can relax in the bungalows while enjoying stunning lake views.
It’s the perfect getaway that certainly surpasses a stay at a typical hotel like Holiday Inn.
Arriving in Legoland Heaven
Legoland Beach Resort goes hand in hand with convenience and makes parents’ lives easier. As you arrive, you’ll find the check-in process a snap; you won’t even have to get out of your car! By using the drive-through check-in, you’ll be making sandcastles near the pool in no time.
Kid-Friendly Legoland Beach Retreat Accommodations
You’ll find your perfect getaway with 83 different beach bungalows to stay in! Each bungalow is beach-themed and offers fun amenities like gorgeous views of Lake Dexter, outdoor and indoor play areas, and more.
Cowabunga Into A Bungalow
Adults will love the king-sized bed, privacy curtain, and patio with outdoor seating. Kids have the option to play in a separate cove area outside. Don’t worry—you can watch the kids from the patio so you can rest after the trip while the kids continue to enjoy themselves!
Kids’ bedrooms include a pull-out trundle bed and direct access to the cove play area.
Lounge in A Resort-Style Pool
You can’t have a proper Florida vacation without a dip in the pool! The giant resort-style pool offers the coolest way to spend the afternoon. Kids and adults can swim in the pool, lounge in a shade-covered chair on the pool deck, or play in the sand and create epic sandcastles. It’s the perfect way to chillax after spending the day at the theme parks or after a long, hot drive.
The pool is nestled next to a LEGO lighthouse that rotates with a beacon—a nice touch that makes you feel right on the beach!
Entertaining Activities for the Kiddos
Fun Cove Play Areas
Each section of 13 bungalows is grouped into a category like the Mermaid’s Cove. Each cove has a separate playground area for kids to enjoy. It’s an excellent way for kids to socialize while having fun outdoor playtime.
Tons of Fun LEGO-Building Activity
Kids can add to the enormous LEGO brick sandcastle. This is the perfect opportunity for them to wave their creativity flag.
Palm Tree Traders Shopping
There’s nothing like buying a new set (or a few sets) of Legos for the kids! They’ll get a kick out of heading to Palm Tree Traders and hunting for the perfect set to build. Just make sure they don’t leave the pieces on the floor; no one wants to step on a LEGO during the night!
Woohoo! Early Theme Park Access (Plus Direct Drop-Off At Theme Park Entrance)
Part of the appeal of staying at a Legoland Hotel or resort is enjoying the proximity to the nearby theme park, water park, and new Peppa Pig theme park (for younger kids). You’ll get some additional theme-park-related perks while staying at this Legoland Beach Resort. For starters, early access is included so you can ride the best rides with less competition from other theme park goers.
You also get to partake in the complimentary transportation from your accommodations to the theme park entrance. You won’t need to battle it out for a parking spot before jumping on the rides.
Perks for the Grown-Ups
Grab a Drink at Bricks Beach Bar
Bricks Beach Bar is nestled up to the resort-style pool, so you can order a fun cocktail while sitting underneath one of the poolside umbrellas. If it’s too hot outside, you can also sit inside the beach bar to enjoy a drink. The Bricks Beach Bar also features fun menu items and snacks for adults and kids.
Kids can also enjoy mocktails from the eclectic menu for a fun treat!
Wi-Fi Availability
While Wi-Fi isn’t an activity, having free Wi-Fi certainly makes life easier! Whether you need to check in with family or friends, check social media, or shoot out a few work emails during your stay, you’ll find the complimentary Wi-Fi is a nice touch for the adults (and kids!).
Dining at Legoland Beach Retreat
We all know dining is the best part, especially when your stay includes a complimentary breakfast! Here are a few eateries that you can try while staying at Legoland Beach Resort. Of course, there are more food choices in the theme parks, but these are close to the bungalows.
Sandy’s Castle Restaurant
Head down to Sandy’s Castle restaurant for a buffet-style breakfast each morning. Enjoy fresh fruit, cereal, coffee, tea, and more! There are even vegan and vegetarian options, so it’s a great spot for everyone.
Lunch and dinner are also available at Sandy’s Castle Restaurant. Expect inventive Latin American cuisine that’s a-la-carte. You can also take food to go and enjoy it on your private patio for a quieter mealtime.
Brick’s Beach Bar
