Most guests head straight for the pool and the water park, but Windsor Hills' hidden amenities are some of the nicest quiet spots in the resort: a putting green, a covered picnic pavilion, a gazebo, shaded walking paths and more. Here is where to find them and how families use them.
The putting green
Tucked beside a covered pavilion, the putting green is a bright patch of turf with a yellow flagstick and plenty of room for kids to try their first putts. It is a good way to spend a lazy morning before heading out, and no skill is needed. Bring your own putters if you have them, or just use a golf ball and some imagination.
The picnic pavilion and gazebo
The covered picnic pavilion has picnic tables, trash cans and shade, which makes it an easy place for a casual lunch, a snack break or a birthday get-together. The pavilion and the gazebo sit among palms and lawn, so there is room for little ones to run around while the adults relax.
Grab sandwiches from the store, a few drinks and a deck of cards, and you have a no-cost afternoon. Check the resort for current rules on food and any gatherings before you plan a bigger group.
The hot tub and spa areas
After a long day of walking at the parks, a soak is a welcome end. Windsor Hills has hot tub and spa areas that make a relaxing spot for the adults to unwind.
Sand volleyball, tennis and basketball
If your group has energy to burn, the sand volleyball court, tennis courts and basketball court are all on property. Our guide to the tennis, basketball and volleyball courts covers what to bring.
Rainy-day and evening options
The clubhouse has a games room with arcade games, billiards and ping pong, plus a movie theater room, so you are never stuck when the weather turns. See our games room and arcade guide for details.
How Windsor Hills' hidden amenities fit a Disney trip
The beauty of a Windsor Hills stay is balance. Disney property is about 5 to 10 minutes away by car, and Magic Kingdom is usually about 10 to 12 minutes, so you can enjoy a full park morning and still be back for a relaxed afternoon. Between the lagoon pool (which is heated), the Sir Windsor AquaVenture water park and the splash areas, the quieter spots above give everyone a calm reset.
Rentals include private-pool homes, condos and townhouses with full kitchens and space for big families, all inside a gated community. For more ideas, read our list of things to do at Windsor Hills Resort or the clubhouse guide.
