If you are looking through reviews trying to decide on a venue.... STOP AND READ THIS!
The Caribe Royale was more than we could have ever asked for! From the spectacular resort, amazing amenities for families, the literal 4 diamond standard food, to the absolutely amazing staff - we could not have been happier with the Caribe. Honestly, when we first drove to Orlando to look at our "top pick" venues, the Caribe was not on the list. We stopped by because we had time, and thank the heavens we did! We were greeted by 2 amazing members of staff, Teresa and Stephanie, and we fell in love - not only with what they had to offer, but with them also! Stephanie and Teresa took care of us from the minute we entered those doors, to the day we checked out after our wedding. Not being a "chain" hotel meant that they could help us make our dream day come true. They took care of our families (which was very important as we had family and friends coming from all over the world), provided us with an amazing group booking discount, they adjusted to our wishes for food/drinks and looks... they seriously went out of their way to make everything just perfect. Being Orlando, and unsurprisingly, we had hurricane-like rain on our big day, and the dreams of our outdoor wedding were shattered. Despite this, Teresa and Stephanie ensured everything was taken care of, and the day was still absolutely breathtaking.
I could write for days about the Caribe and how we will forever be beyond grateful to them for making our Wedding day one we, and all our guests, will never forget. Truly, if you are undecided, please give them a call/message and go check this resort out. 10/10 - 5 Stars - 4 diamond - would recommend!

Overall, we had a decent experience with the Caribe Royale for our wedding reception. The actual reception ended up going off with minimal issues, and everyone seemed to have a great time. We've attempted to categorize our experience by pros\cons.
Pros: The food options were top notch, and the alcohol was of higher quality than most of the other venues we considered. The pastry chef made an amazing custom cake that perfectly captured our design vision. The room setup was great. There were some beautiful lights added to the ceiling that really enhanced the look of the room. (We rented uplights from our DJ separately) The actual hotel and amenities are wonderful for all guests staying on property, and the villas were amazing. (We really loved the large tub in the bedroom) Finally, the venue fee actually pays for a 3rd party wedding coordinator.
Cons: We had a number of communication issues starting at the very beginning of the process. Often times, it would be several days before an email would be answered, and many times questions in an email would not be directly answered until later. Availability of the staff can often be limited as they seem to be away from an actual desk for long periods of time due to coordinating events out on the floor. Food tastings are typically conducted 6-8 weeks prior to the wedding date. For us, this was not far enough in advance. We needed to send invitations out, so we gave a generic beef\fish choice before even tasting anything. At the food tasting, we chose the Chivari chair style that we wanted (silver as that was part of our wedding colors). A few weeks prior to the reception, we were contacted by the Caribe, and were told that the rental company didn't have enough of the chairs available. (We had to switch to crystal) The crystal ended up looking fine, but you would think a backup vendor would have been an option. Nice looking menu cards were printed by the Caribe for the reception. However, they were printed with the wrong month. We purchased flowers and made our own table centerpieces. Since our actual ceremony was at a different location (across town), it was extremely logistically difficult to deliver the arrangements in the time frame required. (If you have a florist performing delivery, this will likely not be an issue for you. Also, if you are having the wedding ceremony on site, this will likely not be an issue for you.) Finally, we had a number of guests that could not attend at the last minute. A few of our wedding party members wanted to try both entrees (which had already been paid for), so we told them to set out the name placards for those guests. However, they were told if the guests were not present, no meal would be brought out. (We didn't get a discount for them, so we were a bit irritated that we weren't able to use them.)
Other: Please be aware that the rooms at the Caribe have minimum levels of food and beverage spend. You must agree to a minimum spend in order to book specific rooms. This means that you need to have a fairly good idea of your guest count in order to lock in a room for a specific date. This was not clear to us at the beginning, so it complicated getting a room booked. (as we had a fairly wide range of potential attendees based on the invitations that we planned to send out)

We had our wedding at this venue, November 2022 and I couldn’t tell you how quick I fell in love with this place! Our event coordinator Taresa was AMAZING!! Had a blast working with her and she worked with us and helped us with all the questions we had during our planning process! She became like family after working with her for 10 months! The new Palms ballroom is breathtaking! ( where my wedding and reception was held) also, throughout the weekend my family who stayed on property kept talking about how spacious and cozy the rooms are. I highly recommend this venue! The staff is amazing and I can’t say enough about Taresa!

We really lucked out in securing the Caribe Royale as our original venue bumped us about 4 months out. The people at the Caribe were so helpful and made everything so easy. The venue is beautiful, the food was amazing and we had such a great time.

My situation is a very rare unique one. My husband and I came to Teresa, the Director of Catering at Caribe with a very emotional crisis on our hands. Our venue called us 30 days out cancelling on us due to "unexpected construction" Our wedding was on a holiday, NYE. So we were left very upset thinking we would never find a new venue and get everything moved over within 30 days. But then we found Teresa, and she saved our wedding, LITERALLY! She took everything we had already set in stone at our previous venue and completely matched everything in our contract which took the stress of us completely! Not only did we simply have a new venue to get married at, this venue and Teresa was everything we could have dreamt of. From the rehearsal to the day of, to just accommodating every single one of my guest we had ZERO COMPLAINTS. With any little obstacle / problem the day of the wedding, Teresa was right there working with my coordinator to resolve it immediately! Teresa took us in and made us feel so comfortable, stress free, and helped give us the wedding of our dreams! :)

We celebrated our special day at Caribe Royale on October 3, 2021! We and our guests had such a great time! It was everything we could have wished for!
We had a small wedding, about 50 people, so we booked their Antigua room which was perfect for our small ceremony. They have so many room options of all styles and sizes to accommodate small to large events, like their main ballroom, which is gorgeous for those having super large events. They allowed us to use our own decorations, which was a huge plus, as I’m a hands-on bride and our wedding theme was “Disney & Halloween.”
The entire staff were amazing! Our coordinator Giselle Peralta was an absolute dream to work with. She was beyond attentive, knowledgeable, organized, detail-oriented, and so prompt. She genuinely shared in our enthusiasm, making the planning process so exciting and stress-free. We are beyond grateful to her for being there every step of the way, we wouldn’t have been able to do it without her!
The cocktail hors d’oeuvres and plated meals were to die for! For the reception dinner, we requested an authentic Argentine dish for the groom’s meal and an authentic Cuban dish for the bride’s meal. The chef knocked it out of the park! The guests kept telling us how amazing and delicious all the food was throughout the night.
The venue itself has tons of places to take photos indoors and outdoors, including a gorgeous grand staircase in the lobby. Our photographer was so happy with the options for our shoot, and lighting was perfect. All together, the resort and convention center were top of the line, so beautiful and spacious. We wouldn’t change a thing, what a perfect day!
Thank you Caribe Royale for making our wedding day so magical!

We got married 1/9/20 at Caribe Royale in Orlando FL. We’re from Michigan so we were doing everything via phone/email and putting our trust in Elisabet & Giselle. We could not have been happier with the way everything turned out! The food was absolutely amazing, the venue was beautiful, and I couldn’t have asked for better people to work with. Elisabet and Giselle were so kind and SO helpful. They were always quick to respond to my many emails and were so attentive the day of the wedding. We planned on switching hotels the day after the wedding to be closer to Disney Springs, but when we arrived at the new destination, it was not what we were expecting. I called Giselle in a panic and she got us right back into Caribe Royale for the remainder of our stay. Thank you Giselle! All of our guests LOVED Caribe Royale and plan on returning for another vacation!

We had the pleasure of having our wedding reception at the Caribe Royale and it was absolutely AMAZING! Both Ashley and Alex helped plan our wedding reception making our planning stress free and relaxing. We could not have asked for more from them. We travelled from the UK with some of our family and friends and everyone commented on how amazing the venue is and how lovely the wedding meal was. Our wedding reception was very private with a cash bar inside the room so our guests could buy drinks without going to the main bars in the venue. Ashley went that extra mile and even borrowed us a Bluetooth speaker from home!
We could not have asked for anything more it was completely amazing
Thank you for making our day so special

I recently had my wedding at the Caribe Royale Resort and it was amazing! I was most impressed with our wedding/event coordinator Ashley Mackinnon who was so helpful and accommodating during the entire week we were there. His experience and resourcefulness as a wedding and event coordinator made us feel like we had our own personal wedding planner, everything was taken care of during the entire wedding day which made it possible for us to enjoy our wedding carefree. In addition to the amazing wedding we had, all of our guests staying in the hotel were very impressed with the resort. The pool with the waterfall and slide was a blast, and the Calypso pool bar was a great meeting spot for the whole family. Also, the 24 hour cafe was really convenient and the location to Disney and free shuttle service is an added bonus.
