Here you’ll get to choose from 2,3, and 4-bedroom townhomes that range between 1,350 to 1,850 square feet!

Before I give you all of the details, I have to let you know that I was invited out by Regal Oaks Resort to enjoy their offerings in exchange for a blog post review.
As always, my thoughts and opinions are my own and I have vacationed here before using my own money.

Ambiance of Regal Oaks Resort
As you approach the majestic gates of this destination you’ll notice the bright bold colors ready to welcome you straight into the tropical vibes of this resort.
When you enter the main lobby, you’ll be blown away by the grand chandelier that sits effortlessly above your head.
This is when you’ll know that your vacation has truly started.
Not to mention, the view of the resort pool that looms off in the background ready for you to take a much needed swim in.
The thing I like about Regal Oaks Resort is although it has an inviting lobby and world-class pool area, it doesn’t feel pretentious.
It feels as if you’re hanging out with friends who are down-to-earth all across the resort grounds.

Parking at Regal Oaks Resort
Now I want to go over how parking works for you at this Central Florida Resort.
When you arrive at Regal Oaks, you’ll notice that the gate is highly secured and watched over by a Team Member.
Since you won’t have a room key yet, you’ll have to go on the left side of the entrance and let the attendant know your name and that you have a reservation.
Once the attendant reviews your information along with viewing your driver’s license, you’ll then be prompted to park in the 10-minute check-in parking spaces.
After you check in, you’ll use your room key to get in and out of the resort.
You’ll also be able to use the right side of the gate entrance as an added convenience for you whenever you’re returning back to Regal Oaks.
How much is parking at Regal Oaks Resort?
You’ll be happy to know that parking is FREE at Regal Oaks Resort!
Something we all can appreciate since resort fees can get out-of-hand. Especially here in Orlando.

Amenities at Regal Oaks Resort
Now we’re at the good part. The amenities!
No hotel or resort destination is complete without some great amenities or fun things to do while vacationing.
One of the things I personally enjoyed at Regal Oaks Resort was the various outdoor activities at the pool area.
You can enjoy a game of Ping Pong or scream your head off down the water slide at the water park!
There’s so much to do here.
Something pretty cool about this resort is that most townhomes come with a private jacuzzi which is great to help you relax those sore muscles from all the walking you’ll be doing at the theme parks!
Enjoying the Florida Sun
As you can see, the pool area is the main hub of the resort. I mean look at the amazing views you get while relaxing on a lounge chair in the photos below.
If you’re not much of a sun-bather, you can hangout under the covered patio or rent a Cabana for the day.
Or you can be like me and grab a chair at the pool bar and chit chat with the bartender (and other resort guests) all day long while sipping on your favorite summery drink.
My recommendation is the Rum Runner…thank me later!

Rooms at Regal Oaks Resort
If you’re like me, then choosing the BEST room at a hotel or resort or even a vacation home is extremely important!
We all want a spacious room that’s clean and affordable. At Regal Oaks Resort not only do you get budget-friendly options, you also get SPACE!!!
Here there are 2,3, and 4-bedroom townhomes that range between 1,350 to 1,850 square feet!
If you have a much larger family or group, you can easily request townhomes right next to each other and the Team Members at Regal Oaks Resort will accommodate you in the best way.
As previously mentioned, I love how many of the townhomes come with their own private jacuzzi with all of them having a private patio. This is a feature I love to have at resorts.
Townhome Options at Regal Oaks:
- 2-Bedroom: a bedroom with a king bed and another bedroom with 2 twin beds with the number of bathrooms varying based on the unit floor plan (sleeps six)
- 3-Bedroom: one room with a king bed, one room with a queen bed, and one room that features 2 twin beds with the number of bathrooms varying based on the unit floor plan (sleeps eight)
- 4-Bedroom: master bedroom features a king bed, the second and third bedrooms each feature a queen bed, the fourth bedroom has two twin beds with the number of bathrooms varying based on the unit floor plan (sleeps 10)
I’ve had the opportunity to stay at this resort on many occasions and explore the variety of floor plans.
So far, the 4-bedroom option is my favorite.
And if you can get a townhome on T-Bird Lane or Corvette Lane on the left side, you may be able to have a view of the resort pool each morning when you wake up.

Restaurants at Regal Oaks Resort
Has this ever been you?
You check in from a long day of traveling and now you’re hungry BUT you don’t want to go too far to find food…
Trust me, I get it!
That’s why you have to check out The Hub, the newest restaurant on property, because I know you will not want to cook in your townhome on your arrival day.
You’re going to be waaaay too tired for that!
The Hub
This dining spot will calm down your hunger pains. You will no longer be hangry as you enjoy dishes such as the:
- Loaded Potato Skins
- Southwest Eggrolls
- Beef Patty Melt
- Fish Tacos
There’s even a menu for the little ones and of course you must end your meal with dessert and a cocktail.
The restaurant hours for The Hub are usually 4 p.m. until 11 p.m. So, that’s plenty of time for you to have dinner.
Be sure to hangout in the lounge area of The Hub to get a quick game of pool in.
The Cabana Poolside Bar and Grill
This location is where you can get small bites with a menu similar to the one at The Hub. You also have to try one of the amazing drinks on the menu while you’re there.
I really enjoyed my bartender at the poolside bar!
She made my visit so amazing and went above and beyond with her customer service by making sure that my husband and I were having a wonderful vacation.
Does Regal Oaks Resort offer breakfast?
On my visit to Regal Oaks Resort, I did not see an option for breakfast at any of the restaurants.
However, that may change in the future which I will definitely keep you updated on.
Hipster Power Tip: Be sure to stop by Sam’s Pantry for coffee along with grab and go snacks to jumpstart your day.

Is CLC Regal Oaks Resort Worth It?
Yes it is!
I recommend this resort, especially if you will be spending an extended time in the Orlando area and you want a home-away-from-home feel with all the amenities to support you and your family or friends.
Regal Oaks will always have a special place in my heart as it was the first place I went to after the passing of my mom.
It was the staycation I needed for peace…
Whether it was relaxing on the patio with a cup of coffee or hanging out poolside enjoying a fruity beverage, I needed this getaway for my mental health.
I will always be thankful for Regal Oaks Resort for helping get through one of the hardest moments of my life.
