Build Yourself a Tropical Trip at the LEGOLAND Beach Retreat

By Brian Delpozo Leave a Comment

Since it first opened back in 2011, the LEGOLAND Florida resort has grown into a massive resort that’s home to the 150-acre LEGOLAND theme park, a LEGOLAND water park, the Peppa Pig Theme Park Florida, the SEA LIFE Florida Aquarium, and three LEGO-themed hotels: the LEGOLAND Hotel Florida, The LEGOLAND Pirate Island Hotel, and our focus today: the LEGOLAND Beach Retreat Bungalows.

LEGOLAND Beach Retreat

The LEGOLAND Beach Retreat Bungalows, first opened in 2017, is made up of 83 freestanding bungalow-style buildings – – each featuring two rooms, making 166 total – – that are designed to resemble giant LEGO sets.

The non-traditional layout of bungalow buildings gives the resort a large, spread-out feel.

There’s a lot of space to move on the property through the clusters of bungalow buildings.

As with LEGOLAND’s other two hotels, the common areas are loaded with LEGO theming, though it arguably feels slightly more dated than the other resorts.

Pool Hours

There’s an expansive pool area that adds to the beach/tropical motif.

There are also sandy, beach-themed activities that do achieve effective immersion into the beach theme.

The resort is home to the Bricks Beach Bar, a full bar that offers views out onto the pool and pool deck.

There’s also the themed Sandy’s Castle Restaurant.

While the bungalow complex sits across the street from LEGOLAND, it’s not a comfortable walkable distance like the other hotels. There is a shuttle that runs for most of the day.

Shuttle hours

The shuttle runs every 15 minutes or so right between LEGOLAND and Peppa Pig Land, and provides a comfy ride.
