For almost two decades, Gaylord Palms has become known for its 4.5-acres of atrium-enclosed gardens with thousands of tropical plants and several species of animals that are native to Florida. With this new partnership, Wild Florida is providing access to many of these unique species including alligators and snakes.
"We are very excited that Wild Florida is our new wildlife partner because they provide a one-of-a-kind experience for our guests," said General Manager of Gaylord Palms Johann Krieger. "Their family-friendly experiences allow our guests to learn more about Florida's diverse ecosystem and get up-close with unique animals, all while exploring the rest of our resort's distinctive environment."
Educational and interactive guest experiences Wild Florida is providing include:
- 20 alligators that live inside the resort's St. Augustine atrium habitat, Gator Springs
- Six hatchlings, also known as baby gators or "grunts," that have a home in the Everglades atrium
- Four snakes that guests can see in Sawgrass Place, located within our Everglades atrium
- Live gator feedings with a Wild Florida representative at Gator Springs at 6:30 p.m. every Tuesday and Saturday
- Up-close animal encounters with critters from Wild Florida's nearby zoological park on select days
Plus, each experience is complimentary for overnight guests, allowing them to enjoy the lush gardens and native species at any time throughout their stay.
"Gaylord Palms Resort is an amazing world-class facility," said Sam Haught, Co-owner of Wild Florida. "We are grateful to partner with a company that shares our same passion for inspiring visitors to make a connection with Florida's wildlife."
