Why should kids have all the fun in Orlando? Adults deserve their own retreat to come home to at the end of the day! That’s why we kept the “Disney stuff” to a minimum inside Upendo Orlando, instead choosing elegant-yet-comfortable furnishings, earth tones, and unique art from Africa (my home). You can always tell the kids it’s inspired by The Lion King. 😉

Meanwhile, your private, lakefront balcony presents a dynamic view of a real-life “animal kingdom,” where you can watch birds, alligators, and other wildlife in their natural habitat.

Bedrooms At Upendo Orlando

Each of the condo’s three bedrooms has either a king or full-size bed—no bunkbeds here. This setup makes Upendo an equally excellent option for grownup getaways of friends, multiple couples, and even business trips.

Our top-floor, Monterey-style 2097 sq. ft. condo is all on one level and is accessed via elevator. Many of our guests comment on how spacious it feels inside!

MASTER SUITE: King-size bed, 37″ flat screen, lake views, and en-suite bath with double vanity and separate tub & shower

BEDROOM 2: King-size bed, 37″ flat screen, shares 2nd bath with tub/shower combination

BEDROOM 3: Two full-size beds, 37″ flat screen, shares 2nd bath

EXTRA: Queen-size sleeper sofa in the den

How to Enjoy Upendo Orlando:

• Step into the cool A/C, kick off your shoes, and watch watercolor sunsets and wildlife on the lake from the comfort of your private balcony.
• Grab a beach towel and head to the resort pool and hot tub for a restorative dip, complete with cocktails from the poolside bar.
• Have a movie night in the comfy living area with a 50” plasma TV, BluRay player and surround sound stereo system.
• Take a stroll along the resort’s paved, two-mile path. Let the kids keep track of the birds you spot (Ibis, herons, and cormorants are all frequent visitors).
• Save money and prep quick breakfasts and group dinners in your full kitchen, which features a side-by-side fridge (with water and ice), an ultra-quiet dishwasher, a self-cleaning oven with smooth top range and a built-in microwave. We also have a coffee maker and a Ninja blender to whip up your beverage of choice.
• Squeeze in a workout using the mats, and resistance bands right in your condo. Or hit the fitness center at the Clubhouse to really earn those ice cream cones.
• Call it an early night—no judgements here! We created our bedrooms to be restful retreats, with the finest linens and fabrics plus 37″ flat screen TVs in each.
