Embassy Suites Orlando Sunset Walk is an all-suite Hilton in Kissimmee, about 4.3 road miles from Animal Kingdom, with free breakfast and two-bedroom suites that sleep 8. Budget a US$44 nightly resort fee plus tax and $15 a day for parking, and note that the Island H2O water park perk applies only in the park’s season.

Quick answer: Book it for one or two separate bedrooms, a kitchenette or kitchen, breakfast included and Animal Kingdom about 10 minutes away by car. The resort fee covers one or two buses a day to Animal Kingdom, Magic Kingdom and Hollywood Studios, plus a 7:15 a.m. run to Universal, Epic Universe and SeaWorld.

Location: Sunset Walk, off US-192 west of Disney

Animal Kingdom’s guest parking is about 4.3 road miles away, the closest Disney theme park. The Promenade at Sunset Walk, with restaurants, a movie theater, an arcade and live music venues (Margaritaville’s page), is about 0.5 to 0.6 mile on foot, or about 12 minutes. Island H2O’s page says the hotel runs a free shuttle to the Promenade; Hilton does not mention one.

These are OSRM routes on public roads, checked on November 9, 2026. Hilton lists shorter straight-line figures, such as 1.7 miles to Animal Kingdom. For other options, see our guide to hotels near Animal Kingdom.

Rooms and suites: studios, king suites and two-bedroom suites

Every unit has a sofa bed and a cooking area, but only the suites have a separate bedroom. Sizes and limits come from Hilton’s room descriptions (August 2025 capture).

LayoutBedsSizeSleepsCooking
Queen Studio1 queen + sofa bed514 sq ft4Kitchenette; mini or full-size fridge
King Suite1 king + sofa bed738 sq ft4Full-size fridge, cooktop
Corner King Suite1 king + sofa bed791 sq ft4Full-size fridge, cooktop
Two-Bedroom Suite1 king, 2 queens, sofa bedAbout 1,050 sq ft8Kitchen, dining table
Two-Bedroom Corner Suite1 king, 2 queens, sofa bedAbout 1,180 sq ft8Kitchen, table for six

Hilton lists a two-burner cooktop, a dishwasher and a microwave in all five layouts. Its two-bedroom descriptions say “fully furnished kitchen”, but Hilton’s own feature lists and Booking.com’s room details say “kitchenette” for every unit. Neither Hilton nor Booking.com lists an oven, so ask if you need one.

The king suites have a living room behind a privacy door, a separate tub and shower, and a balcony; Hilton lists no balcony for the studio. In the two-bedroom suites, each bedroom has its own bathroom. If two bathrooms matter, compare our list of Orlando hotels with two bathrooms.

For a family of six to eight, one two-bedroom suite replaces two rooms, so you pay one resort fee and one parking charge instead of two. Booking.com offers free cribs up to age 2 and no extra beds. The guest who checks in must be 21 or older.

Pools and recreation: the Oasis Beach Club

The Oasis Beach Club has a zero-entry pool that Hilton marks as heated, a tiki bar with 20 TVs and 36 private cabanas. Hilton listed pool hours of 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. (August 2025 capture). Booking.com lists the outdoor pool as open all year.

The hotel’s own photos show a kids’ splash pad with a small slide in front of the main pool. Mango Moon Bar & Grill listed live entertainment on Saturdays from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. (February 2026 capture). Hilton does not say whether the cabanas cost extra, so ask.

Island H2O Water Park: included only in season

Island H2O admission was included for every guest in the room during the 2026 season, with the full resort fee paid. Hilton’s February 2026 page gave March 7 to October 31, 2026, and Island H2O’s hotel page says March 6 to October 31, 2026. Both valued admission at $65.99 per person per day.

At our November 9, 2026 check, Island H2O’s site thanked guests for the 2026 season and posted no 2027 dates or hotel terms, yet Booking.com showed the same US$44 resort fee for December and January dates. The park is about 0.6 to 0.8 mile on foot by our routing; Hilton lists 0.9 mile. Our Orlando water parks guide lists each park’s season.

Dining and breakfast: made-to-order breakfast and an evening reception

Breakfast is included: Hilton lists a free made-to-order breakfast, and every Booking.com rate on our sample dates showed “American breakfast included”. The evening reception includes beer, wine, premium spirits and light snacks (Hilton, August 2025 capture).

Hilton does not publish separate breakfast or reception hours. Its February 2026 listing for CitruSocial, the lobby restaurant in Building 1, showed 6:00 to 9:00 a.m. on weekdays, 7:00 to 10:30 a.m. on weekends and 5:00 to 10:00 p.m. daily. If those are the breakfast hours, a weekday breakfast ends 20 minutes before the 9:20 a.m. Disney bus.

CitruSocial serves sandwiches, salads and a happy hour. In February 2026, Mango Moon Bar & Grill served lunch, dinner and drinks at the pool from 11:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m., and The Market Place, which sells grab-and-go food, was listed as open 24 hours.

Parking and fees

Self-parking costs $15 a day, per Hilton (February 2026 capture) and Booking.com, which says a reservation is needed. There is no valet.

The resort fee was US$44 a night plus 13.5% tax on Booking.com’s breakdowns for December 8 to 10, 2026, January 12 to 14, 2027 and March 9 to 11, 2027. Hilton lists the inclusions but not the amount: Island H2O access, guest internet, poolside activities and live entertainment, theme park transportation, Disney Good Neighbor concierge services and two bottled waters a day. Our Orlando resort fee list compares the fees at 90 Orlando hotels.

True nightly cost: fees, parking and perks

With a car, Embassy Suites Orlando Sunset Walk adds $59 a night to your room rate before tax. Rates vary by season, availability and how far ahead you book. Published add-ons on November 9, 2026:

  • Embassy Suites Orlando Sunset Walk: your rate + $44 resort fee + $15 parking = rate + $59 per night. The 13.5% tax on the fee adds $5.94, so the add-ons come to $64.94 with a car, or $49.94 without one, before the tax on the room rate itself.
  • Margaritaville Resort Orlando: your rate + $48 resort fee + $20 parking = rate + $68 per night, plus tax on both.
  • Embassy Suites by Hilton Orlando Lake Buena Vista South: your rate + $0 resort fee + $25 parking = rate + $25 per night (Hilton, June 2026 capture). Booking.com’s fine print lists parking at US$20 a day.
  • Drury Plaza Hotel Orlando – Disney Springs Area: your rate + $0 resort fee + $28 parking = rate + $28 per night (Drury’s page).

Over five nights with one car, the Sunset Walk add-ons come to $295 before tax, or $324.70 with the tax on the resort fee. Breakfast is included at all of these hotels except Margaritaville, whose resort fee does not cover breakfast.

Each Disney park day you ride the hotel bus instead of driving avoids Disney’s $35 parking charge. In season, Island H2O admission was worth $65.99 per person per day, or $263.96 a day for a family of four, but that perk covered the 2026 season only. Hilton Honors discounts and points apply only to bookings made directly with Hilton.

Transport to the parks: shuttle times

The shuttle has no fare, but it runs only once or twice a day to each park. The operator, Firefighters All Services, priced every route at $0.00 in its reservation system. At our November 9, 2026 check, it showed the same times on November 10, November 18 and December 9, 2026 and January 13, 2027:

DestinationLeaves hotelReturns from park
Animal Kingdom9:20 a.m.5:45 p.m.
Magic Kingdom (TTC)9:20 and 10:35 a.m.5:30, 9:15 or 10:30 p.m.
Hollywood Studios10:35 and 11:30 a.m.5:15, 9:00 or 10:15 p.m.
Universal Studios / Islands of Adventure7:15 a.m.7:15 p.m.
Epic Universe7:15 a.m.7:00 p.m.
SeaWorld7:15 a.m.6:45 p.m.

The Magic Kingdom bus stops at the Transportation and Ticket Center, where EPCOT means a monorail transfer. There is no Disney Springs run. On December 9, 2026, Disney’s calendar showed Animal Kingdom opening at 8:00 a.m. and Magic Kingdom at 9:00 a.m., so the first bus leaves after both open. The operator also warned of 10- to 15-minute road-work delays.

Margaritaville’s buses, run by the same operator, left within 5 minutes of these times on December 9. Hilton lists no airport shuttle, and Mears Connect does not list the hotel. See also our list of Kissimmee hotels with Disney shuttle.

Amenities: fitness center, Wi-Fi, pets and services

Hilton lists a fitness center, free Wi-Fi, a business center, connecting rooms, cribs and Digital Key, but no spa and no kids’ club. Pets up to 45 pounds pay a $125 non-refundable fee (February 2026 capture).

EV charging is a conflict: Hilton’s hotel-info page said “On-site” in August 2025, its February 2026 page said “Not available”, and Booking.com lists a charging station. Ask before you count on it. Booking.com also says public-area Wi-Fi costs extra; Hilton lists free Wi-Fi.

Who Embassy Suites Orlando Sunset Walk suits

The hotel suits families who start most days at Animal Kingdom or Hollywood Studios, groups of up to 8 and visitors who want breakfast covered. Universal and Epic Universe are about 16 to 17.5 miles away by car.

  • You want a made-to-order breakfast and an evening reception included in the rate.
  • Animal Kingdom is your main park: its parking is about 4.3 road miles away.

  • One or two buses per park, the first Disney bus at 9:20 a.m., and no direct EPCOT or Disney Springs bus.
  • No Early Theme Park Entry and no airport shuttle.
  • Magic Kingdom, EPCOT and Disney Springs are about 8.5 to 9.5 road miles away.

What to check before you book

  • The final total: Booking.com lists the resort fee and the 13.5% tax separately from the room price.
  • Island H2O: whether 2027 dates are posted and whether hotel guests still get free admission.
  • Shuttle times: the operator’s times for your exact dates, and how to reserve seats.
  • Suite type: a Queen Studio has no separate bedroom.
  • Parking: Booking.com says a reservation is needed, so ask the hotel to hold a space.
