What it is

A new tech-forward, 234-room stay in gleaming towers, with a cabana-lined pool deck, sculpture garden, two buzzy restaurants and mixologist cocktail bars.

What it isn't

Vanilla. Colors abound here, making it just as fun for littles as it is for their art-loving parents.

What we think

The masterminds behind this new Orlando hotel have thought of everything—literally. View Smart glass that blocks 99% of UV light from your room? Check. Digital concierges available to serve you within your handy dandy in-room tablet? Check. Toto Neorest Smart Toilets? You betcha. You can even use your voice to control the lighting. But what we love even more are the artful comforts, such as the Frette linens and Nespresso coffee makers at-the-ready to swaddle you in vacay bliss. If you’re as wellness-oriented as Gwyneth, consider booking a Well+Ech by Wave room; they have Healthe air filtration systems, lighting designed to suit your circadian rhythms, and gratis access to the Chopra Mind-Body Zone & Spa...a fantastic spot for, say, candlelight yoga.

You're here because

You love a hands-off hotel experience, and the Wave App allows you everything from keyless check-in to the ability to order room service in the palm of your hand.

The Moment

The only thing better than being ensconced in your poolside cabana is ordering grilled mahi mahi tacos with pineapple salsa and a Birds of Paradise cocktail to your daybed. Heaven.
