6 Criminally Underrated Disney World Hotel Lounges

Disney World might be a resort full of theme parks and rides, but it’s a seriously great place to grab food and drinks, too!

You’ll find lots of delicious places inside the theme parks to eat and drink. From quick service to table service to lounges, there’s no shortage of options at the parks. However, we dare you to leave the parks and venture over to one of the many hotels where even more fantastic dining can be found. And if you need to take a load off after (or during) your hectic day in the parks, we suggest making the much-deserved jaunt over to one of these six underrated hotel lounges!

Three Bridges

Venture over to Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort and find yourself enjoying a Latin-themed lounge with GREAT food.

Three Bridges Bar & Grill serves up some yummy food and picturesque views. It’s open and airy with lakeside dining and drinking. It can be a popular place for people to hang out, so it may get a little busy, but it’s not Trader Sam’s at Disney’s Polynesian Village Resort busy!

Territory Lounge

Territory Lounge at Disney’s Wilderness Lodge is absolutely COZY. You’ll want to sit here all day and night, enjoying the rustic feel and warm atmosphere.

Usually, this lounge isn’t very crowded. The hotel is a bit off the beaten path, so the people you do see at the lounge are those waiting to get seated at Artist Point. The atmosphere, low crowds, and one fantastic S’mores Old Fashioned make this a great escape.

Crockett’s Tavern

Speaking of off-the-beaten-path, Crockett’s Tavern at Disney’s Fort Wilderness Resort and Campground is a bit out of the way of the parks but worth it.

Other than when it can get a little crowded with people waiting for the Hoop Dee Doo Musical Revue and people staying at Fort Wilderness, this lounge is usually pretty quiet. It’s very chill and low-key, plus the sliders and moonshine flight are totally worth the boat ride to Fort Wilderness from Magic Kingdom!

Dahlia Lounge

Another lounge at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort that is criminally underrated is Dahlia Lounge!

Dahlia Lounge is a rooftop bar with incredible views and a Spanish surrealism atmosphere.

We love the food and drinks here, and it’s often overlooked or forgotten about by guests at Disney World. You don’t want to miss this lounge on your next trip!

Sanaa Lounge

We LOVE Sanaa at Disney’s Animal Kingdom Lodge. The restaurant is wildly popular, and a lot of that is because of its fantastic bread service. But when you’re unable to get a reservation at the restaurant, don’t forget about the accompanying lounge!

The lounge isn’t very big, but you can get the famous Sanaa bread service here, which makes the cramped space 100% worth it. Plus, there are several fun, yummy drinks to sip on while enjoying that tasty bread. Don’t forget to take a peek at the animals out back of the hotel while you’re there!

Citricos Lounge

Citricos is a restaurant at Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort that overlooks the courtyard of the hotel. It has a Mary Poppins theme and is very whimsical, indeed. The food here is top-tier, but the restaurant is only open for dinner, and it can be challenging to get a reservation. But if you aren’t able to snag one, don’t fret! The Citricos Lounge serves all the same options, and seating is first come, first served!

We recently stopped by the lounge for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the Oak-grilled Filet Mignon and the Truffle Mac & Cheese! There are also fun drinks to try, including zero-proof cocktails. There’s also a kids’ menu available at the lounge! This lounge is just a quick monorail ride from Magic Kingdom, and we suggest checking it out.

If you have time and are looking for a nice place to stop, chill, and relax on your Disney World vacation, consider checking out one of these underrated lounges at one of the several hotels around the resort!
