Tampa Bay fans can stay overnight at Gaylord Palms, or just retreat from the heat for a meal inside the resort’s air-conditioned 4.5-acre atrium.

The 2.1-million-square-foot resort, located five minutes from the gates of Walt Disney World, is designed in the tradition of a grand 19th-century Florida seaside resort.
