Where to Stay in Orlando for a Bachelorette Party
When it comes to places to stay in Orlando for a bachelorette party, it all depends on how many people are in your party, and if you’d prefer to be in a hotel or a vacation rental. Here are some great options for each!
Best Hotels in Orlando for a Bachelorette
- Hyatt Regency Orlando – This is a great option for those looking for a moderately priced hotel that offers a great pool, pool bar, and several dining options in the hotel.
- Marriott Orlando Downtown – If you and your crew are looking to be closer to the action downtown Orlando, this Marriott is the spot for you!
- Grand Bohemian Hotel Orlando – I’ve saved the pricier option for last. This is great for groups looking to really have the hotel be the star of the show. This hotel offers a world-class spa and several dining options.
Best AirBnbs in Orlando for a Bachelorette
- Lakeside Oasis: You and your party may never want to leave this lakeside oasis (literally). With 5 bedrooms, a pool, kayaks, and all the lakeside views, this is the perfect rental for your bachelorette weekend!
- Downtown Bungalow: This cozy bungalow sleeps 10 and is just minutes from Lake Eola and 20 minutes from the theme parks. There are pretty strict quiet hours here, so make sure your group isn’t too rowdy.
- Luxurious Mansion: If you are feeling extra bougie (and have the budget for it), you can rent this massive mansion. As you can imagine, it has everything you could possibly ask for (pool tables, arcade games, rooftop decks, outdoor dining spaces). However, there’s no pool here so keep that in mind if you were hoping to do some swimming!

Orlando is definitely a foodie’s paradise! What I love most about it is there’s a little bit of everything, so no matter how diverse your group’s flavor palette is, there’s bound to be a place everyone will love! Here are some of the top restaurants in Orlando to consider for your bachelorette party:

- Taverna Opa – If you’re craving Greek food you can’t go wrong with Opa! They do nightly entertainment featuring Zorba and belly dancers.
- ICEBAR Orlando – This definitely takes unique bars to the next level! Beat the Florida heat by enjoying a cocktail in this bar made entirely from ice!

Orlando Bachelorette Party Itinerary (3 nights!)
The thought of planning a 3-day bachelorette itinerary can feel a tad overwhelming! So here are some activities you can schedule for your Orlando, FL bachelorette party to make it memorable and fun for everyone!
Psst: This itinerary does not include any of the theme parks, so if you are looking for a fun day at Magic Kingdom or Universal, feel free to switch out one of the following days.
Day One: Brunch and Fun with Manatees
Morning
Start the morning by getting to know everyone by enjoying a fabulous brunch together! One of the most delicious restaurants is Santiago’s Bodega. This is a cozy and eclectic restaurant where you can enjoy a variety of delicious tapas such as Croissant French Toast and Hash Brown Casserole.
Afternoon
If you and the crew are up for a bit of a road trip, head to Crystal River for a once-in-a-lifetime snorkel with manatees experience (November-March only)! It’s about 1.5 hours from Orlando, but worth every minute! There are many different tours to choose from.
If you are visiting outside of Manatee season or wanting to stay closer to Orlando, you can head to Gatorland to get up close and personal with the Florida alligators or head to Lake Eola Park for a peaceful swan boat ride.
Evening
After spending the afternoon swimming with manatees or hanging with the gators, it’s safe to say your crew has worked up an appetite. For dinner, head on over to Taverna Opa for a night of delicious Greek food and dancing!
Late Night
If everyone still has some energy left in them, head over to ICEBar to check out over 70 tons of hand-carved ice while sipping on drinks and dancing the night away.
Day Two: Disney Springs and Nightlife
Morning
Day Two is the perfect time to explore some of the more budget-friendly options that Disney has to offer, Disney Springs! Depending on where you’re staying getting to Disney Springs could take upwards of 30 minutes, or 15 minutes so it’s best to plan accordingly. But feel free to sleep in and head over when everyone wakes up!
One activity everyone can do is get on the hot air balloon! While it doesn’t move around the lake, you’ll definitely get a good view of Disney Springs and the surrounding areas.
Afternoon
Spend the afternoon exploring all of the shops and restaurants Disney Springs has to offer and take some cute pictures using some of the clever photo ops they have around.
After you’ve done shopping and are looking for a light bite before dinner, check out The Hangar Bar! Located on the water, this is the perfect spot to take in the scenery, enjoy a refreshing cocktail, and eat some delicious light bights like mini soft pretzels and sliders!
Evening
Enjoy a delicious dinner at Artisan’s Table. This restaurant offers a creative American menu that changes seasonally. Some of the highlights include the bone-in pork chop and sliced NY strip.
After dinner, it’s time to enjoy some laughs at the SAK Comedy Lab! They typically have two shows every weekend on 7pm and 9pm, so be sure to coordinate accordingly!
Late Night
If the group is looking for a nightcap featuring a beautiful view, check out the AC Sky Bar at the Marriott downtown! Some of the standout drinks include the Orange Mint Cosmo, Mango Smash, and for gin lovers, the Love Potion.
Day Three: Yoga and Spa Farewell
Morning
After a long weekend, it’s best to spend the last day with your crew winding down and getting ready to head home. That’s why starting with a peaceful yoga class is the perfect idea! Orlando is home to a variety of great yoga studios, some favorites include, Studio SOUL and Full Circle Yoga.
Afternoon
After a relaxing morning doing a group yoga class, it’s time to bring the relaxation to the next level and treat the group to a relaxing spa afternoon.
If you’re staying at a hotel, check to see what their spa accommodations look like, but if you’re looking for a world-class experience, you can’t go wrong with a small business, Beauty Care By Abby. Explore the variety of luxurious services and skincare products, their website claims it’s the perfect spot for bridal parties!
Evening
While you wind down the trip, it’s best to have a chill dinner for the last night. End the trip with a relaxed and fun dinner at F&D Woodfired Italian Kitchen. Some of the standout dishes include the F&D Charcuterie Board, Housemade Bolognese Lasagna, and Pesto Cream Tortellini.
Non-Theme Park Activities in Orlando for a Bachelorette Party
If you and your crew are looking for some fun ideas that are beyond the theme parks, here’s a handy list that might help!

- Ride the swan boats at Lake Eola Park
- Watch an improv show at Funny Bone Comedy Club
- Road trip to the surrounding Natural Springs

Other Tips to Know Before Throwing a Bachelorette in Orlando
- Bring a water bottle and sunscreen! It is the Sunshine State after all!
- Bring a bathing suit! Even if you’re visiting in the “cooler” months like November and December, a lot of hotels and Airbnbs have hot tubs and heated pools!
- Ask the party to download the Splitwise app. Since there will be a lot of Uber rides and shared bar tabs, it can get difficult trying to track down who owes what. So by downloading an app like Splitwise, you’ll be able to tabulate everything in real-time to stay on track and budget.
- Bring a disposable camera for everyone! This is always a unique idea because you can take fun pictures throughout the trip, and each person can take home their own set of unique pictures and memories.
- Rent a car. This might depend on how much exploring you’ll want to do while you’re in Orlando. If you plan on only staying downtown, you should be fine just Ubering everywhere, but if you want to explore the theme parks and maybe even try to take a day trip to Crystal River (on day 1), a car would be preferable.
