The great thing about staying in a villa in Orlando, is the freedom to eat where you like and how you like. That may be out at a restaurant, in the theme parks, cooking in your villa or relaxing with a takeaway on your private pool deck and watching the sunset.

During these times of uncertainty, we understand that some of you may be wary of eating out, but don’t let that stop you from enjoying your Orlando holiday. There are so many options for takeaways in Orlando, that you could eat in the villa throughout your whole stay. A lot of the options are restaurant-quality, so you won’t be missing out on great food either.

You will notice that some of the restaurants in Orlando have the option of ‘curbside pickup’, which means the staff drop it off at your car, so you don’t even need to go into the restaurant. Most also offer delivery, so you don’t have to leave your villa at all.

Many restaurants allow customers to order through their website. There are also a few websites/apps to search for takeaways in the area, similar to ones like Just Eat in the UK. These include Grub Hub, Uber Eats and Door Dash. All of these are available to download as apps from the Apple app store and Android Play store.
