GREAT MERLIN BREAKS
It’s waiting for you. Shimmering beneath Florida’s blue skies and gorgeous sunshine, shaded by gently swaying palm trees, you’ll find the world’s largest LEGOLAND®.
Situated in utterly glorious parkland, this is a theme park like no other – and so much more besides, making it the perfect place for a holiday like no other.
Start with LEGOLAND®

You’ll spend the week as our guests in the brand new LEGOLAND® hotel, in a room your kids will never forget. Even better, it means you get a head-start on rides and attractions such as the new World of Chima, Pirate’s Cove, DUPLO® Valley for toddlers and much more.

Not to mention the amazing waterpark – five pools (and a river) providing endlessly refreshing family fun. And for something completely different, try exploring the park’s stunning backdrop – Florida’s historic Cypress Gardens, now beautifully restored and waiting to be discovered.

And there’s still so much more to explore. For a change of scene, simply jump in your free hire car or our shuttle bus and spend the day in Orlando. There, you’ll experience its brand new attractions: Madame Tussauds, SEA LIFE and the Orlando Eye.

Hello, Orlando!

From your fabulous base at the LEGOLAND® Florida Resort, you can enjoy unlimited day trips to Orlando to experience a host of fabulous attractions that are so new, they’re only opening this year! With extraordinary sights, fascinating facts and hands-on activities, a whole new Orlando is waiting for you.

Get up close and personal to the A-listers at the new Madame Tussauds – the world’s Number 1 wax model attraction, which has been wowing guests for more than 200 years. Take a selfie with Beyonc!, smile with Selena Gomez, sing a duet with Taylor Swift and make a wax cast of your own hand in the ultimate fame experience.


Wander through winding underwater tunnels, floor-to-ceiling ocean tanks and bubble aquariums to see more than 5,000 creatures, including more than 30 captivating displays of sea horses, sea turtles, sharks, jellyfish, octopi and much more at SEA LIFE Orlando. Discover how we breed sharks and sea horses, learn about our rescue and protection work – and get stuck into our interactive touchpool experience. It’s an aquarium like no other.

Head high in the sky, up in the air-conditioned glass capsules of the brand new Orlando Eye. As you gently climb up to 400ft, you’ll experience breathtaking views of Orlando’s attractions and, on a clear day, Kennedy Space Centre and the East Coast. Add in the stunning 4D Experience and you’ll definitely be seeing Florida as you’ve never seen it before.
