We decided to have our wedding ceremony & reception at the Legends Courtyard & Ballroom located inside the Mission Inn Resort, and we do not regret our decision in the slightest! Every little detail from the venue, to the grounds, the staff, our rooms and the service was perfect and we have heard nothing but good reviews from our guests about the quality of the food served at dinner and the hors d’oeuvres served during cocktail hour. The venue itself is also stunning, well-maintained, and very clean. The windows in the ballroom that look out over the golf course & the lake offer a stunning view as the sun sets. Jessica & Shelby were very helpful and organized during the planning and execution of our wedding ceremony/reception, and we would definitely recommend Mission Inn resort to anyone and everyone who is looking at this resort for their special day! 5 star service, 5 star scenery & 5 star accommodations. Thank you guys!! ❤
Our guests expressed nothing but kudos. We appreciated everyone’s attentiveness to our requests and needs.
Please convey to your staff our appreciation for setting up and having our meals always on time and to our specifications. Our transitions were effortless due to your team’s preparation.
Special thanks to Helen and Larissa for onsite help, and also to Philippe for going over and beyond to accommodate last minute dietary requests. He also arranged for a birthday acknowledgement on Saturday which was very sweet and unexpected.
From the moment we set foot on Mission Inn property, I had a feeling this would be our wedding venue. I wanted something close to “home” (now, technically where I grew up), that had the old Florida lakeside feel. Marina Del Rey was the answer I was looking for! Bri painted a lovely picture of what the wedding day would look like so we had an idea of how things would be set up and showed us pictures of other weddings at this location. She was even kind enough to accommodate my family and ourselves to tour again during our short trip home before securing the venue. My catering manager made the entire process smooth and never hesitated to answer any of my questions, no matter how silly I thought they were. Kelsey took over for us when our previous catering manager was no longer with Mission Inn only several weeks before the wedding. She made the scary thought of having planned my whole day with someone else disappear immediately. She clearly had gone over everything and eased my mind and worries right away! For the rehearsal and then the wedding day she was right there checking on us and made sure that things were executed in a timely fashion and worked so well alongside my day of coordinator. I can’t rave about Bri, Kelsey, and the entire Mission Inn staff and location enough!
I personally, and all but about 4 of our guys, had never played your facility before, although it was the very first place I dropped a resume off 25 years ago when I moved down here. Heard great things of course over the years, but it really did exceed all our expectations. Add to that how well you and your staff took take of us and it was a fantastic experience, regardless of the outcome of the tournament. You obviously have experience running big events and it showed (not that our event was big, but it was run perfectly). I spent some time with your starter both days and had some great chats. With the delay on Friday’s tournament round, we missed our 1:50 afternoon tee times by about 20 minutes, but you guys still accommodated us seamlessly so thank you for that. The beverage cart staff might be the best group I’ve ever seen. What a great bunch of gals who are really good at what they do. On Friday afternoon, the young gal on Los Colinas said it was her first day solo I think I heard her say, which is unbelievable because she was as good as anyone. El Campeon is certainly one of the most beautiful and unique courses I’ve ever played. Can’t wait to come back. We’re bringing a big group over in the fall so I’ll look you up then. Thanks again Lou and let your guys know that what they do is appreciated!
Marina Del Rey at Mission Inn Resort is worth every minute of the drive out from downtown Orlando. My husband wanted a ceremony by the water and I wanted an indoor reception because Florida’s weather can be unpredictable. Marina Del Rey was the perfect blend because the picturesque lakefront property has an indoor hall with full glass walls facing the lake and market lights dangling from the ceiling. The food was delicious, the venue was beautiful, and we look back on our special day with only happiness. We are especially thankful for the leftover cake, champagne, and gift that Jessica had waiting for us in our hotel room when we returned from the reception. Thank you to the happy Jessica Lynn Castrejon for showing me around the beautiful property when searching for a venue! Also, thank you patient Jessica Maertchik for always being there for us, especially with all our questions and requests.
Our group just finished our 9th trip to Mission Inn.
That by itself should tell you about our thoughts on golf, hospitality, accommodations, and amenities.
We enjoyed our stay at Mission Inn very much. So nice to have a retreat from the hub but of Orlando high energy and traffic chaos. So nice to have a lanai overlooking the course. Room was generously sized and well appointed, tho a small refrig would have been nice and a couple more pieces of wall art would have made it more inviting and finished looking. Best bed and pillows we’ve ever slept on. Even though there were wedding guests in hotel when we came, we still found hotel very quiet throughout. Grounds are lovely.
We spent our wedding weekend at Mission Inn Resort for our two-day event! From our first visit, Jessica Lynn Castrejon helped create the vision for our dream wedding. Marina del Rey for our Hindu ceremony was her suggestion and it made for a picturesque backdrop for the festive bright colors. The path made for a grand entrance for my groom on his horse for the baraat. Everyone raved about the amazing Indian food at lunch! I love that the venue offers multiple sites so our guests were able to experience different settings for each part of our wedding. Our traditional ceremony on the second day was at Plaza de la Fontana as the sun started setting. It’s so beautiful we didn’t need much ceremony decor. Cocktail hour in the Plaza de las Palmas courtyard was a selling point for my husband. He loved the market lights and wrought iron tables. Our reception was at La Hacienda and it was a unique and perfect room to offer an intimate feel to a wedding of over 130 guests. With most guests coming from out of town, it was definitely a a huge plus that everyone could stay in the same place. We were able to enjoy the resort and our spend time with our guests all weekend. Most importantly, Jessica Maertchik was such a pleasure to work with through the entire process. She brought the vision of our dream wedding to life. With multiple events, she was attentive to detail and so responsive! We are so thankful to her and the entire team at Mission Inn for making the weekend so spectacular!
The Mission Inn Resort & Spa is an intriguing place to meet for any occasion and the services will far exceed any expectations. Not only will your guests be surrounded by the beauty of nature, but tranquility to make any event seem effortless as though one may think they are in Paradise. The Mission Inn Resort has so much to offer beyond the comfort of being at your second home where the employees become more like family. I consider the destination to be like no other place in North America and it has an appeal to capture the essence of the proper clientele. Whether you are driving from a long distance or fly into the closest airport, the scenery will set you back once you arrive at the Mission Inn to experience a different culture. Guests will be sure to have an enjoyable stay for business, leisure of special event given the activities can involve a wedding ceremony, meeting or program as well as any golf tournament.
Our Wedding was at marina Del Rey at Mission Inn, the experience overall was amazing. The venue was breathtaking, the staff at the reception area were attentive, polite, professional and just wonderful. The coordinator Nadine was just a gem to work with, we are sad we won’t be able to see her again. Nadine’s Assistant was great as well. The food was great, our guest were happy with it all and can’t stop talking about the food, cocktails and location they loved it all. I will recommend Mission Inn to friends and family. We actually already spoke about doing our 10 yr anniversary here. The Mission inn website does not do Marina Del Rey justice it is just an amazing spot for any occasion.
I enjoyed every aspect of my stay at Mission Inn Resort. The food, the room, the golf. All were absolutely top notch. The seafood buffet on Saturday night was as good as it gets, every thing was very good, especially the bread pudding for dessert. I highly recommend this as a golf destination or a get away destination.
I played this course way back when in the late 70’s the only thing I regret is that I took so long for me to book a stay and play package. It was so Great!!!! Every thing I could ever want in a trip.!!!!!
