Disney World is full of unique experiences you can’t find anywhere else — that’s what keeps us coming back time and time again (okay, that and the corn dog nuggets).

But, some of the BEST experiences at Disney World can’t be found in the parks at all, but instead at the hotels! Whether you’re looking for a fireworks cruise or a fancy meal, chances are you can find it. And, if it’s Afternoon Tea you’re after, you’re going to want to visit the Four Seasons Orlando!

We recently got the chance to check out the NEW Springtime Afternoon Tea offering at Ravello at the Four Seasons Orlando!

The Four Seasons isn’t owned by Disney, but it’s on Disney World property and features many of the same amenities and perks that a Disney World Deluxe Resort does.

The Springtime Afternoon Tea features a selection of different teas along with finger sandwiches, petit fours, and other small bites.

We sampled the Elena Ruz Strawberry Sandwich made with Roasted Turkey, Strawberries, Whipped Cream Cheese, and Strawberry Preserves, the Smoked Salmon Tartlet with Smoked Salmon Mousse, Chives, and Caviar, the Muffaletta Sandwich with Olive Mix, Basil Pesto, and Mortadella, and the Black Bean Cake with Savory Black Beans, Jalapeño, and Cilantro Crema.

We chose the Wild Strawberry tea, and it was light, fruity, and delicious. It came with milk on the side — if you’re a milk-in-your-tea kind of person.

For dessert, there was a selection of Buttermilk Scones with Whipped Cream & Raspberry Jam, Violet & Cassis Macarons, Strawberry Choux, Lemon Mini Tarts, and Chocolate Petit Gateaux.

This experience is held on Saturdays and Sundays, and it’s we had such a lovely time. There is live music playing throughout the entire tea, and you can even sip multiple options of tea if you choose to switch in the middle of your experience.

After your teatime is up, they’ll send you off with a pick-your-own bouquet you can make.

The Springtime Afternoon Tea is taking place for a limited time, from May 3rd to May 25th, at Ravello at the Four Seasons Orlando. The cost is $78 per adult (which includes a glass of Prosecco) and $38 per child (aged 2-12), and reservations can be made on OpenTable!

We’ll be on the lookout for the latest updates from the Four Seasons Orlando and more Disney World hotels. In the meantime, make sure you stay tuned to the Disney Food Blog for more Disney news!
