Though a significant expansion is underway that will be completed in Fall 2010, the Peabody currently offers 891 rooms, each beautifully decorated with contemporary décor, plush furnishings, and a soothing use of natural colors. From the Superior Room to the expansive VIP Suites, each room is equipped with two dual-line telephones with dataports, high speed internet, voicemail, speakerphone, and teleconference capabilities; premium cable and network TV; a ten-inch LCD TV in bathrooms; fully-stocked minibars and other wonderful amenities. Guests will relish in the comfort of the Peabody Dream Bed by Simmons Beautyrest, which ensures a sound and undisturbed sleep.

Well equipped to host any professional function, the Peabody has 57,000 square feet of supple meeting space on two levels. The hotel also features an executive business center, award-winning catering and conference services, and complete audiovisual services, in addition to general guest services like in-room dining, child care service, laundry and dry-cleaning, and shuttle service to Magic Kingdom ® Park and Epcot ® Center.

The Peabody also has no shortage of recreational offerings to keep professionals busy while they’re not in meetings. On a sizeable sundeck, guests can enjoy a heated 180-foot lap pool, children’s pool, and poolside bar, along with ultra luxurious poolside cabanas and a large outdoor whirlpool. Fitness buffs will want to check out The Peabody Athletic Club, stocked with a Grecian-style indoor heated swimming pool and a whirlpool spa, along with the four lighted tennis courts where tennis pros can help you perfect your swing for a fee. The hotel also features a full-service salon, a golf service center, several boutiques and shops, and award-winning restaurants and bars.

Perhaps the best part of the Peabody Orlando, however, is the daily traditional march of the Peabody Ducks. Guests can watch as these beautiful and whimsical creatures leave the Royal Duck Palace on the third floor at 11 am and march into the atrium lobby for their swim in the Royal Duck Fountain, among stately palm trees, exotic orchids, and a waterfall. Escorted by their Royal Duck Master, the ducks return to their home at 5 pm.
