Quick Verdict: The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes vs Conrad Orlando at Evermore

When The Ritz-Carlton Orlando, Grande Lakes wins: pick the Ritz-Carlton if you want a big, established resort with a 40,000 sq ft spa, an 18-hole Greg Norman golf course, a wide choice of dining (including Knife & Spoon), and family programming such as Ritz Kids.

When Conrad Orlando at Evermore wins: choose Conrad Evermore if you prefer a newer property with a lagoon/beach concept near Walt Disney World, contemporary meeting space, watersports and a single-resort beachfront/pool focus.

Bottom line: both are five-star Orlando choices but serve different priorities — Grande Lakes for spa, golf and a wide activity roster on a large estate; Conrad Evermore for a modern beach-lagoon stay close to Disney with large event capacity.
