ChampionsGate Resort: Golf, Amenities & More

Perhaps the main reason people have for visiting Orlando is to check out the famous theme parks. However, others go for the food, culture, and laid-back atmosphere. Whether you’re planning to head to the area to go golfing or you’d rather spend your time at Disney, you’ll need to find the perfect accommodations for your stay. One of the best resort communities in Orlando to stay in just so happens to be ChampionsGate Resort!

So, are you ready to learn more about the most luxurious family-friendly vacation rentals near Walt Disney World, Universal, world-class golfing, and other amazing things to do in Orlando? Let’s jump into everything you need to know about this place to stay in Central Florida!

Where is ChampionsGate Located

If you’re looking for accommodations near Disney World, ChampionsGate is the place to stay. A short 28-mile drive from the Orlando International Airport, the resort is located off Highway 192 and Highway 27 while being only a few minutes away from Interstate 4. This location puts it in the heart of any Orlando activities you might want to check out. 

Those planning to spend their trip exploring Disney’s Magic Kingdom, Epcot, Hollywood Studios, or Animal Kingdom will be delighted to know that the resort is only 12 miles away. Or, if you’d rather spend time exploring Universal Studios or Sea World, you can get there with a quick 20 minute drive.  The theme parks aren’t the only significant attractions in the area. You can also head over to Icon Park to check out what Orlando’s epicenter has to offer. Or, you can swing by the nearby Walgreens, Publix, bank, and gas station to take care of a few errands if needed. 

Community Amenities

When you stay at ChampionsGate, you’ll have no shortage of amenities! Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or for a family vacation, there’s something for everyone at this resort. At the Clubhouse, you’ll be instantly greeted with a warm welcome from the friendly reception team, who can assist you with any questions you may have about the amenities.

As part of the space, you’ll have access to a theater to watch movies, a game room where you can play your favorite video games, and an office center with a printer. Plus, the Grille Room Restaurant is located in the Clubhouse and is an excellent place for dinner.

You will find tons of cool things to do throughout your stay at Champions Gate Resort, both on the property and off. Here are a few of the top activities in which to participate:

Pools at ChampionsGate

For one, you’ll be able to enjoy the resort-style pool featuring private cabanas, a water slide, and a lazy river. While you relax at the swimming pool, grab a drink at the swim-up tiki bar, sip on a cocktail in the water, and enjoy the resort’s amenities.

Kids will love the splash pad, where they can run around in spritzers and water shooters. Meanwhile, their parents can hang out in the Spa Grotto, where they can enjoy waterfalls, a spa, a walk-through tunnel, and a campfire.

Fitness

Those who want to work out while on vacation will have no problem doing so at this resort. This resort features over 15 acres of recreation. You can head to the fitness center or hit the volleyball court or one of the resort’s six clay tennis courts. You can also head to the sun lawn on the property for pilates and Tai Chi classes. Or, simply go for a walk through the fruit groves, orchid garden, bamboo groves, or zen garden. Kids can stay active by heading to the playground, where they’ll find climbing ropes, slides, and a jungle gym for clambering around and getting their energy out.

Golfing

Many people visit Orlando just for golfing opportunities, which are almost endless! You’ll find two 18-hole golf courses designed by famed golfer Greg Norman only minutes away, and that means you’ll have easy access to 36 holes of championship golf pretty much in your backyard during your stay. They both offer unique playing conditions, one with coastal link-style vibes inspired by Norman’s upbringing in Australia and the other with a more traditional Orlando golf resort feel.

It is also home to the world-renowned David Leadbetter Golf Academy and on-site dining. There’s even a pro shop should you wish to grab a souvenir from your visit or need additional items before you hit the greens.

Vacation Home Amenities

It’s not just the community that has excellent amenities, ChampionsGate vacation homes have fantastic amenities to offer as well! So many amenities that you may not even want to leave and explore the city or the parks. All of the resort homes feature large floor plans with tons of space for your entire family or group to spread out! You’ll find properties that can sleep up to 24 people across as many as 9 bedrooms. They have peaceful designs with tropical colors that create a lively and relaxing atmosphere.

Kitchen and Dining

The kitchens in these vacation homes leave nothing to be desired, as they feature high-end appliances and generous countertops. Plus, the kitchens are spacious enough for the whole family to hang out there during mealtime. Once you’ve whipped up a tasty meal, you can either sit down at the ample bar seating or head to the large dining table in the adjoining dining room. Or, head out to the patio or balcony for an alfresco meal.

Common Rooms

When you’re not out exploring the world of Orlando activities, you can relax in your vacation home’s common areas. Enjoy the sofas and lounge chairs in the living room, where you can relax and unwind with the whole family. Many vacation rentals also have unique spaces for you and the family to relax. You can enjoy private game rooms or sit down to a movie in a home theater!

Outdoor Spaces

The outdoor spaces in ChampionsGate vacation homes are just as good (if not even better) as the indoor ones. You can enjoy a private pool or a screened-in lounge area where you’ll be able to rest after a long day of exploring.
