What is on site at Paradiso Grande
Between Disney and Universal
Most of the communities we rent in sit south-west of Walt Disney World, in Kissimmee and Davenport, which makes them excellent for Disney and a long drive for anything else. Paradiso Grande is the exception. It sits off International Drive in Orlando, next door to SeaWorld's Discovery Cove, about eight miles from Universal Orlando and about seven from Disney Springs, so a week that splits its days between Universal, SeaWorld and Disney does not have to favour one of them. If Disney is the whole plan, Windsor Hills Resort is still the shortest drive we have to the parks.
It is a new community, built by Park Square Homes in phases, and the developer describes every home as created with the vacationer in mind. The developer says its townhomes are zoned for short-term rental, and the owners' association's Declaration approves every lot for short-term rentals, so renting a whole house here for a week is what the community was planned for. The plan in the owners' association's budget is 385 homes, split between five-bedroom townhomes and single-family homes the developer's announcement puts at six to fifteen bedrooms, which makes it a place for large families and groups travelling together.
The shared facilities are concentrated in one building, the Aquarius Clubhouse. The developer lists a resort-style pool, a lazy river, a kids' pool splash zone, a fitness center, a game room and a café there, and states that residents and guests alike can use them. Hours are not published, so ask us before you travel if timing matters.

Frequently asked questions
Where is Paradiso Grande Resort?
Paradiso Grande is off International Drive in Orlando, Florida, in the 32821 ZIP code, between Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando and next door to SeaWorld's Discovery Cove. Its Aquarius Clubhouse is at 6001 High Seas Drive, inside the gated community.
How far is Paradiso Grande Resort from Disney World?
About seven miles to Disney Springs and roughly 11 to 15 miles to the four Disney park gates, which is around 25 to 35 minutes by car without traffic. Communities on the Kissimmee side are closer to Disney; Paradiso Grande trades a few miles for being much nearer Universal.
How far is Paradiso Grande Resort from Universal Orlando?
About eight miles, or roughly 20 minutes by car without traffic. That makes it the only one of our Orlando-area resorts that is closer to Universal than to the Disney park gates, and a sensible base for a holiday that splits its days between the two.
What amenities does Paradiso Grande Resort have?
The Aquarius Clubhouse has a resort-style pool, a lazy river, a kids' pool splash zone, a fitness center, a game room and a café, according to the developer. Plans announced in 2023 also include a playground, parks and walking trails, and the community has a pond.
Can vacation rental guests use the clubhouse at Paradiso Grande?
Yes. The developer, Park Square Homes, states that all residents and guests can enjoy the Aquarius Clubhouse's resort pool and lazy river, game room, café and fitness center. Opening hours are not published, so ask us before you travel if timing matters.
Is Paradiso Grande zoned for short-term vacation rentals?
Yes. The developer says its townhomes are zoned for short-term rental, and the owners' association's Declaration approves every lot for short-term rentals and describes the community as short-term rental units. It was planned as a vacation-home community rather than a residential neighbourhood that happens to allow rentals.
Is Paradiso Grande a gated community?
Yes, the community has a gated entrance. Gate and check-in details are sent with your arrival information once your booking is confirmed, so there is nothing to arrange yourself before you get there.
What size are the homes at Paradiso Grande?
The community mixes five-bedroom townhomes with single-family homes of six to fifteen bedrooms, according to the developer's 2023 announcement. That range makes it suited to large families and groups who want everyone under one roof rather than across several hotel rooms.
Is Paradiso Grande Resort finished?
Not entirely. Park Square Homes is building it in phases, with 385 homes in the owners' association's plan, so some parts of the community may still be under construction during your stay. Ask us about the area around a specific home if that matters to you.
How far is Paradiso Grande from Orlando International Airport?
About 15 miles, or roughly 25 minutes by car without traffic, mostly along State Road 528. The Orange County Convention Center is about four miles away, which also makes the community practical for a trip that combines a conference with family time.
