It’s true, there’s no place like home. However, getting away is always a treat, and if you can get away close to home, that is even better. Living in Central Florida has its perks for sure. With great weather this time of the year and the theme parks so close, it’s the perfect destination to plan a getaway for Easter. After spending a few hosted days with my friends over at the Gaylord Palms Resort, let me tell you why you need to consider visiting during their Easter Eggstravaganza.
Gaylord Palms Resort for Easter
The Gaylord Palms Resort is currently celebrating spring with their Easter Eggstravaganza! You and your family will want to join the fun. Come out and see the enormous eggs. Take part in a scavenger hunt or take advantage of the gorgeous weather and hang at one of the pool parties. There will also be meet-and-greets with the Easter Bunny during the Kissimmee resort’s festive activities. This is a perfect time for families to create memories with an assortment of thoughtfully planned activities included with an overnight stay!

Atrium Décor
The resort’s grand atriums are known to be filled with flowers and foliage, and during Easter season guests are welcomed with beautiful pastel-colored tulips, daffodils, hyacinth and more blooming alongside giant decorated Easter eggs and a particularly large “chocolate” bunny.
High above the gardens, the atrium “skies” will be bright with our Springtime Light Display, as giant LED light curtains vividly display flowers blooming, bunny rabbits scurrying, shooting stars, and spring-colored kaleidoscopes.
Dates: March and April

The Mad Tea Party Escape Room
