The Reunion Resort Water Park Parking Lot, located at 7740 Sandy Ridge Dr in Kissimmee, FL, serves as the primary parking facility for guests visiting the resort's signature 5-acre water park and the adjacent Spectrum at Reunion condominiums. This surface lot is designed to provide immediate, hassle-free access to the water park’s tropical attractions, including its lazy river, water slides, and the Spectrum Clubhouse.

Overview & Suitability

This is an open-air surface parking lot catering strictly to passenger vehicles, SUVs, and resort-approved golf carts. Please note the following suitability restrictions:

• Exclusive Access: The lot and the adjacent water park are private facilities. Access is strictly limited to registered resort guests, Spectrum at Reunion residents, and members with valid amenity wristbands. The general public cannot pay for parking or entry at the gate.
• Vehicle Restrictions: In accordance with Reunion Resort HOA and CDD rules, trailers, RVs, boats, freezer trailers, and oversized commercial vehicles are strictly prohibited.
• Golf Cart Parking: Designated areas within the lot, particularly near the water park entrance, are reserved exclusively for resort golf carts.

Access, Dimensions & Clearance

Navigating this facility is highly convenient for standard vehicles, thanks to its open-air layout. Key access details include:

• No Height Restrictions: As an open surface lot, there are no overhead clearance limits, making it ideal for tall SUVs, minivans, or vehicles equipped with roof racks.
• Strict Parking Enforcement: Due to the compact and neighborly design of the resort roads, on-street parking on Sandy Ridge Drive and surrounding streets is heavily restricted. Parking on the grass or blocking sidewalks is strictly prohibited, and violators are subject to immediate towing. Guests must use this designated parking lot or their specific villa driveways.

Parking Rates, Tariffs & Booking

While the parking lot is reserved for resort guests, pricing is integrated into resort stay terms:

• Daily Self-Parking: Standard resort self-parking is $20.00 per day (plus tax). However, some direct bookings, timeshare owners (such as Club Wyndham), or guests staying in specific Spectrum vacation rentals may enjoy complimentary parking as part of their rental package.
• No Public Hourly Parking: There are no hourly rates or pay-stations for non-guests, as the facility does not accommodate public day-use parking.
• Payment Methods: Any applicable parking fees are charged directly to the guest’s folio at check-in (located at the Reunion Grande front desk or Spectrum clubhouse) and can be settled via major credit cards.

Security & Amenities

The parking lot shares the robust security framework of the upscale, gated Reunion Resort community:

• Gated Security: Entry to the Sandy Ridge Drive area requires passing through a secured, staffed gatehouse.
• Security Patrols: The community features 24-hour mobile security patrols to ensure the safety of parked vehicles.
• Amenities: The lot is equipped with modern lighting and is steps away from restrooms, locker rentals, and Drifters Bar & Splash Shack inside the water park.

Strategic Alternative

For resort guests, this parking lot serves as a highly strategic base for exploring the broader Orlando area:

• Skip Disney Parking Fees: Reunion Resort is located just 6 to 8 miles from Walt Disney World. Guests can park their vehicles safely in this lot and utilize the resort’s complimentary shuttle service to the Magic Kingdom Ticket and Transportation Center, avoiding Disney’s costly daily theme park parking fees and traffic.
