ORLANDO, Fla. – Orlando World Center Marriott recently announced a new interactive swimming experience involving mythical mermaids.
On select nights, guests are invited to enjoy a glow party event where mermaids splash and swim around the resort’s lagoon-style pool. Guest can also participate in a meet and greet and photo opportunities with the mermaids following their swim.
The glow event also includes a live poolside DJ with lights and music, face painting, themed arts and crafts, glowing beach balls, and more. To top off the night, guests can enjoy the resort’s 10-minute nightly laser light show.
“We’re always collecting ideas from our guests to determine how we can take their experience to the next level,” says Robert Bray, general manager at Orlando World Center Marriott. “Our goal is to create a one-of-a-kind experience that leaves a lasting impression for our guests. When we introduce new offerings like mermaid adventures, renovate our guest rooms, and add state-of-the-art amenities like River Falls, we leave our guests with a desire to come back time and time again, as well as share their experience with others.”
The mermaid swimming experience is offered on select Saturday nights at the hotel’s Falls Pool. The glow event starts at 7 p.m. with the mermaids splashing into the pool at 8 p.m. and is currently scheduled for the following dates: May 13, May 20, July 29, Aug. 5, Aug. 12, Oct. 7, Nov. 25, Dec. 28 and Dec. 30.
Orlando World Center Marriott boasts more than 500,000 square feet of indoor and outdoor function space. Completed in January 2023, the resort’s 14,000 square feet of North Tower event space was refreshed with new décor, flooring, and more. The renovated North Tower function space complements the new 36,000-square-foot Magnolia meeting space that was unveiled in 2022 to meet a wide variety of meeting and convention needs.
