Villa, 1 Bedroom, Balcony (, Tub)

Each villa has a private balcony with peaceful resort views, and the unit is reached via exterior corridors. It makes a quiet spot for morning coffee or an evening wind-down at Marriott's Grande Vista after a day at the parks.

The bedroom has 1 King Bed and the living area has a Double Sofa Bed, so the villa suits up to four guests in total. Bedding type is a request and depends on availability at check-in. Larger groups can look at the 2-bedroom villas, which allow up to eight guests combined.

The villa has one private bathroom with a whirlpool tub in the master bath, plus towels and a hair dryer. Accessible touches include an accessible bathtub, grab bars by the tub and toilet, a height-adjustable showerhead, low-height electrical outlets, lever door handles and wheelchair-width doorways.

Yes. The villa has a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave and kitchen bar seating, a living and dining area, and an in-unit washer and dryer. That makes it practical for longer Orlando stays, and The Marketplace on site sells grab-and-go meals and cold drinks.

Marriott's Grande Vista states no resort fees, and Wi-Fi is free. Self parking for rental reservations is listed at $30 plus tax per vehicle per day on Marriott's site, while owner-type stays may include it. The resort is cashless, so bring a credit card and photo ID for check-in; a refundable security deposit is taken. Check-in is from 4:00 PM and check-out is by 10:00 AM.

The resort has no theme park or airport shuttle, so most guests drive or use rideshare. Orlando International Airport (MCO) is about 15 miles away, with a rideshare averaging around $39. SeaWorld Orlando is roughly a 4–6 minute drive, Universal Orlando Resort about 12–15 minutes, and Walt Disney World about 20–25 minutes. The I-RIDE Trolley stops near the main entrance on International Drive.

The resort has four main heated pool areas, each with whirlpool spas, open 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. weather permitting. There are no lifeguards, and children 12 and under must be accompanied by an adult. On site you will find Copa Loca Bar & Grill, The Grill at Grande Vista, The Grande Cove Restaurant and Mist Pool Bar, and Brewcoast Coffee Co. for morning coffee.

No pool is designated adults-only, but long-time owners say the smaller Golfside and Clubside Village pools tend to draw more adults and fewer children. The larger Village Center pool area near the lake is livelier. The Spa at Grande Vista in the Village Center, by appointment, is another way to unwind.

Marriott's Grande Vista is a family-friendly resort, and the 1-Bedroom Villa suits couples or a family of up to four. The kitchen, laundry and separate living space work well for longer stays. The resort also has a free 24-hour fitness center, pickleball courts, a sports complex, a golf club next door and a weekly activities schedule. The sports complex is listed as under renovation from April 20 through May 24, 2026.

Pets are not allowed, though service animals are welcome without a fee or documentation. The nearest ocean beach is Cocoa Beach, about 57–65 miles east and roughly a 45–60 minute drive, so it works as a day trip rather than a walk from the villa.
