How Orlando packages work
Orlando is built for the stay and play. The city packs championship resort golf, theme parks and warm winter weather into one place, and the resorts sell it as bundled packages with lodging, tee times and course pairings handled. The names that anchor a trip are Reunion, with three signature courses by Nicklaus, Palmer and Watson, the Omni at ChampionsGate with its two Greg Norman layouts, plus Orange County National, Shingle Creek and Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill, home of the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
That density is the point: you can base in one resort, play a different course each day, and bring non golfers along for the parks. Below is how the main package shapes work for 2026 and how the marquee PGA TOUR round fits. Green fees and package contents move with season and demand, so figures here are planning guides only and you should always confirm directly before booking.

The deals worth watching
The resort stay and play
The backbone of an Orlando trip is the resort stay and play, which pairs villa or hotel lodging with a rotation of rounds and tee times at the resort's own courses and partners. Reunion and the Omni at ChampionsGate are the heavyweights, each putting multiple championship layouts and a full leisure offer on one site. The deepest value sits October to April, outside the school holiday peaks, when warm, dry weather meets softer rates.
The villa group package
For a buddies trip, the resort villa is the lever that moves the math. Multi bedroom villas at Reunion or ChampionsGate spread the lodging cost across the group while keeping everyone on site, and the packages fold several rounds into the rate. Size the villa to the group and you can buy a week of championship golf at a strong per head number, with a pool and a base that suits players and non players alike.
Where Bay Hill fits
The set piece round is Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill, the PGA TOUR venue that hosts the Arnold Palmer Invitational. It is the round you build a trip around rather than a course you expect to discount, so the smart 2026 plan uses resort stay and play volume to carry the week, then spends the saving on a Bay Hill highlight and, if you can, a night in its lodge to round out the tour experience.
Our take
Orlando is the easiest big golf trip in America to package well, and the best value comes from leaning into the resorts rather than chasing one off tee times. A villa stay and play at Reunion or ChampionsGate buys a week of championship golf for a group at a strong per head rate, with the parks on hand for anyone not playing.
Our advice for 2026 is to base in one resort, size a villa to the group, travel October to April outside the holiday peaks, and add a Bay Hill round as the marquee. Our Orlando golf hub, the best golf courses in Orlando list and our Myrtle Beach versus Orlando comparison set it out, and our team can assemble the package, costed to the head, before you commit.

Orlando golf deals, your questions
What golf packages are available in Orlando for 2026?
Most Orlando packages are resort stay and play deals that bundle villa or hotel lodging with a rotation of rounds and tee times at resorts such as Reunion, the Omni at ChampionsGate, Orange County National and Shingle Creek. Multi bedroom villas drive the best per head value for groups, and a Bay Hill round is the common marquee add. Package contents and rates change with season and demand, so always confirm directly before booking.
Can you play a PGA TOUR course in Orlando?
Yes. Arnold Palmer's Bay Hill Club hosts the PGA TOUR's Arnold Palmer Invitational and offers access through its lodge and member connected play, making it the headline marquee round of most Orlando trips. Access terms and green fees vary and sit at the premium end, so treat it as a set piece highlight and confirm current availability and rates directly before booking.
When is the best time for an Orlando golf trip?
October to April is the sweet spot, offering warm temperatures, lower humidity and excellent course conditions for a winter sun golf trip, while the summer is hot, humid and prone to afternoon storms. The best package value sits in this window but outside the busiest school holiday weeks, so target the shoulders of the season and book marquee rounds and villas ahead.
