Some Orlando stays are near the Everglades. This one sits right at their headwaters: Rosen Shingle Creek is a AAA Four Diamond resort where 230 acres of native Florida landscape wrap around a golf course, four heated pools, and 1,500 rooms of easy elegance. Welcome to the greenest corner of International Drive.




Location is half the magic. The resort stands in the International Drive and Convention Center district, minutes from Universal Orlando, SeaWorld, and the Orange County Convention Center — yet Shingle Creek itself feels like a nature preserve, with walking trails winding past cypress trees and native wildlife. It is the rare Orlando address that is both perfectly connected and genuinely peaceful.
Inside, the numbers impress: four heated outdoor pools, the 18-hole Shingle Creek golf course, 15 restaurants and lounges, a full-service spa, and membership in Preferred Hotels & Resorts. The AAA Four Diamond rating and 4.5 stars are earned the old-fashioned way — with service that remembers your name.
This is the ideal base for convention-goers who want more than a business hotel, golfers chasing a championship round, and families who love being close to the theme parks without living inside the noise. Book the sunrise tee time; you will not regret it.
