Disney’s Coronado Springs resort is a popular Disney World Resort Hotel choice for both Convention guests and vacationers alike! This Disney Moderate Resort offers luxurious amenities and is themed with Spanish influences! The resort is themed to transport guests to the shore of Lago Dorado. The resort pulls design inspiration from the influence of the great Spanish explorers, artists, writers and architects. Capturing that same adventurous spirit in the resort’s details, Disney Coronado Springs will make you feel like you are on a tropical vacation within your vacation!
Soon there will be even more to love at Disney’s Coronado Springs! Soon the resort will welcome the addition of a new tower, as well as a new full service dining location! Along with the addition the resort will also receive a complete remodel of the current resort rooms! With the changes, Coronado Springs has now moved to the top of Disney World’s Moderate resort price category range. This means that out of all the Disney World Moderate resorts this one is now the closest to a Deluxe resort, making it a great option for someone looking for more luxury but wanting to stay in a budget.
A while back Disney shared artist renderings of Coronado Springs exciting expansion! The expansion project is currently underway at the resort! This week, the Experiences and Consumer Products Chairman with Disney Parks, Bob Chapek revealed more exciting details about the reimagining! The first detail being the name of the new 15-story tower that will soon become the centerpiece of the resort. The tower will be called the Gran Destino Tower.
The Gran Destino Tower, will be complete in July of 2019! This summer! The Gran Destino Tower will become the new main entrance for guests as they visit the resort. This new tower will bring the addition of 545 new guest rooms, including 50 suites to the Coronado Springs! The tower will feature a beautiful two-story lobby! I personally am most excited for the themed table-service restaurant that will be on the top floor of Gran Destino Tower!
The restaurant will be home to delicious food and incredible views of the Walt Disney World Resort property! One of my favorite restaurants in all of Walt Disney World is the California Grill which sit on the top floor of Disney Contemporary Resort. The California Grill not only has amazing food but the views from the restaurant are absolutely perfect! You can see directly over to the Magic Kingdom and you can enjoy the best spot in the house to have a birds-eye view of the fireworks! From the description of this new restaurant that will sit high atop the Gran Destino Tower, I am very much reminded of California Grill! This has me very excited to check this place out as soon as it opens. I have a feeling the views will be breathtaking! This will give a birds-eye view of a whole new area of Disney property. Coronado Springs is close to Epcot so I have a feeling this new dining location will serve as a great spot to watch the new nighttime show that will be coming to Epcot in 2019!
In addition to the restaurant on the top floor of the Gran Destino Tower, a second new restaurant is planned to open at the resort as well! This restaurant will sit on an island in the middle of the resort’s 14-acre lake, Lago Dorado, with new walkways stretching across the water, making it convenient to access no matter where guests are staying at the resort. A new and fresh color palette will bring the entire resort experience together and blend the new and the newly reimagined! At the reimagined Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort guests will discover a blend of both classic Spanish influences along with imaginative Disney touches and modern comforts!
