LEGOLAND Beach Retreat to open in April

WINTER HAVEN – The much anticipated unveiling of the latest addition to LEGOLAND Florida Resort, the LEGOLAND Beach Retreat, came with an extra surprise – the retreat will open April 7, 2017.

Amid construction workers and LEGOLAND employees, the media preview held Wednesday morning also revealed additional details about the 83-beach themed bungalows that will offer 166 accommodations, each featuring whimsical LEGO décor both inside and out.

Located approximately a half-mile from the theme park entrance, the site will feature a central swimming pool and sandy play area, a buffet restaurant, a pool bar, a giant LEGO inspired lighthouse and views of picturesque Lake Dexter.

Included will be breakfast with each night’s stay as well as complimentary parking in LEGOLAND Florida Resort’s main parking lot. Also announced with the addition of Palm Tree Traders, a large retail shop stocked with LEGO building sets and Minifigures, apparel, toys, swimwear, snacks and sundries, at the resort.

Reservations are available for stays from April 7 through Nov. 30, 2017.

Announced in March 2016 as part of the largest period of growth and expansion in the resort’s five-year history, LEGOLAND Beach Retreat is a first-of-its-kind project unique to the LEGOLAND resorts in North America. Opening less than two years after the May 2015 debut of the 152-room LEGOLAND Hotel, the site will more than double on-site accommodations.
