PPG Coatings Help To Bring New Life to Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa®

Disney Resort Collection’s flagship resort, Disney’s Grand Floridian Resort & Spa, has captivated guests since its opening in 1988 with its beautiful Victorian architecture and charm. The 40-acre resort is currently undergoing a multi-year transformation to enhance the interior and exterior in an updated paint color palette that honors the venue’s rich history. With durable, fast-drying, and low-odor PPG products at the forefront, this massive paint refresh project - including 800 guest rooms, a lobby, and multiple fine dining facilities – is scheduled to be fully completed in the future.

“With the help of PPG paints, we enhanced the Grand Floridian’s natural beauty to make our flagship resort even better. Our guest rooms and resort spaces are refreshed with picturesque shades of blues and greens, our coffered ceilings have added depth, and our architectural elements stand out in new and accented ways.”
