Whether your meeting is for 10, 100, or even more, you'll find all kinds of sizes, locations, room styles, and amenities to best fit your needs.

Each room has Wi-Fi and TVs that can be used for presentations. Before or after the meeting, guests can compete in teams in a game of WhirlyBall, a combination of bumper cars, basketball, Jai-alai, and hockey.

The Sheraton Lake Buena Vista Resort near Walt Disney World is finishing renovations that will provide 20,000 square feet of meeting space. An existing 6,000-square-foot ballroom is being updated, and the hotel is adding a second 7,000-square-foot ballroom. The work is expected to be completed by the end of the year. Zest is the hotel’s new casual restaurant and bar that can be used by private groups.
