Disney4me Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 Here at DFB, we’re in a not-so-secret love affair with Disney World lounges. Dahlia Sliders What better way to enjoy a sampling of small plates and delicious beverages, while also getting in a little R&R in the middle of a busy Disney day? There are several lounges spread throughout Disney World, both in the hotels and the parks, but some of them are near and dear to our hearts. Today, we’re sharing a full tour of one of our favorites — the Dahlia Lounge at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort. The Dahlia Lounge is located on the top floor of the Gran Destino Tower at Coronado Springs. This rooftop bar is inspired by Spanish surrealism, and it’s evident in the architecture and design elements scattered throughout. Welcome to Dahlia Lounge Dahlia Lounge opens at 5PM each evening and typically stays open until midnight. Inside, you’ll find a stunning bar area, along with several seating areas grouped around small tables. The space is accented with lots of metal and glass detailing, and a variety of textures give it quite a bit of depth. Dahlia Lounge at Disney’s Coronado Springs Resort The menu features Spanish cuisine as well as a few classic lounge items, like chicken wings. The Dahlia Sliders, Shrimp Pil Pil, and are some of the favorites for a savory bite, while the Churros and Cookie Flight dominate for those with a sweet tooth. Smoked Paprika Chips If you’re visiting with a small party or just want to pop in for a drink, the bar area is a great place to sit. It’s decorated in metal and wood with golden accents, and the bartenders here can prepare you a variety of signature cocktails or grab you a Spanish cava to end your night. Dahlia Lounge bar The warm tones in here really make for a relaxing atmosphere and a lovely way to wind down in the evening. There are TVs at the bar, but it’s definitely not that over-the-top sports bar feel that you can sometimes get around property. Dahlia Lounge If you’re not in the mood to sit at the bar, you can plop down in one of the more lounge-like seating areas around the restaurant. There’s booth seating in one area… Photos in the seating area …as well as some comfortable chairs and couches grouped around small tables in other spots. Each table comes topped with a menu so you can see what’s available to order. And sitting here, you’ll have a spectacular view out the windows! Seating The artwork is where you really find that Spanish surrealist feel. The back wall of the lounge boasts a giant mural, flanked by more of those glass burst light fixtures. Back of the lounge Since this is a rooftop lounge, there’s also an outdoor patio/balcony seating area! Here, there are sets of outdoor couches surrounding tables. It can get windy all the way up here, but the views are truly spectacular. Outdoor seating with a VIEW From the balcony, you can see all across Disney World property, and you might even spot some fireworks shows at night — there’s EPCOT in the distance!
