the Grove Resort Winterhaven Florida

Question

Has anyone stayed here recently? and is there any restaurants or shops off the resort within walking distance

Answer

The Grove Resort & Water Park in Winter Haven, Florida, is a large vacation resort popular with families visiting Orlando’s theme parks due to its spacious villas, multiple pools, and on-site amenities. Many travelers choose it for the combination of resort comforts and proximity to Walt Disney World and other attractions.

Recent guest experiences:

Guests appreciate the roomy villas, which often include full kitchens, multiple bedrooms, and living areas—ideal for families or groups.
The on-site amenities, including a water park, multiple pools, a lazy river, fitness center, and recreational activities, are considered highlights.
Some guests note that while the resort is expansive and well-maintained, it can feel somewhat isolated, and transportation to Disney and other parks often requires a car or shuttle service.

Restaurants and shops off the resort:

Within walking distance, options are very limited. Winter Haven is not a highly walkable area, and most shopping or dining options require a short drive or Uber/Lyft.
There are a few small local restaurants and convenience stores within a few miles, but for a wider variety, including grocery stores, chain restaurants, and shopping centers, driving to nearby Winter Haven or Kissimmee is recommended.
Most visitors plan to either dine at the resort’s restaurants or drive to external dining and shopping areas rather than relying on walking.

In summary, The Grove Resort is well-suited for families wanting a self-contained vacation with easy access to Orlando theme parks, but it is not a walkable area for off-resort dining or shopping. Renting a car or using ride-share options is strongly recommended if you plan to explore beyond the resort.
