Where does the car drop you at JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes in Orlando, and what does the resort say about valet?

How we source facts

At the JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes, 4040 Central Florida Parkway, the car drops you at the hotel; its own page prints on-site parking at $42 a day and valet at $58, check-in at 4 p.m. and check-out at 11 a.m., and says the hotel provides no shuttle to either Orlando airport (Marriott, n.d.).

JW Marriott Orlando, Grande Lakes is at 4040 Central Florida Parkway, Orlando, FL 32837. The hotel page, read in a browser because the site refuses automated fetches, prints on-site parking at $42 daily and valet at $58 daily, with check-in at 4 p.m., check-out at 11 a.m. and a minimum check-in age of 18. It says the hotel does not provide shuttle service to Orlando International or Orlando Sanford, and names the Ritz-Carlton beside it on the same Grande Lakes property only through the shared address. (Marriott, n.d.).

Not on the pages I read: the drop-off point or entrance; a house car; an airport transfer the hotel arranges. Resorts change valet rates and house-car hours without notice, so the page's own words are checked by a daily watch, and the desk confirms the door with the resort's bell desk the day before an arrival.

What the car does: from MCO, or any airport or private terminal, the captain meets you where the airport's rules allow, watches the flight, and drops you at the resort's porte-cochère or the entrance the bell desk names, with waiting after landing included; the resort's own concierge can arrange a transfer too, and its page says so, so compare the two on price and on what each includes. The fare here is agreed before the car moves, and you see it before you book.
